Positioned to Prosper with Erica Pyle

#122// Let's talk about the stress competing priorities can bring. It's the worst, right? You just want to do the things you're meant to do. You want to run your race well. But then . . . you find yourself with overwhelming handfuls of responsibilities and tasks -- ALL which feel vital and MANY that are competing for the limited time, resources and energy you have. What do you do? F...

#121//  I'm sharing an excerpt from this month's Jesus Girl Gang Masterclass. When you make a sound for the Lord, it can move things. It can stop things, it can start things. It can even sustain things. And, listen, I'm not here for the whole " Christians can't manifest anything " conversation. That is simply an unbiblical stance. If you speak the word of God out of a...

#120//  Discussions about weight loss are tricky. Always have been, but over the past few years it seems like the " danger zone " around this topic has become much wider and a lot sharper. Is it just me, or are you sensing this, too? I've been on both sides of the weight spectrum during my life. During my first pregnancy, at age 34, I gained over 100 pounds. And I was only 120 pound...

#119// 

#118// Have you been self-sabotaging? Lately, I've been making some "big moves" in the business and ministry space. If I'm being honest with you (and that is always my intention here on the podcast), I've got to admit that I am coming up on a familiar roadblock. You see, I've been around this mountain before -- at least six times, actually -- and there's always t...

#117// Are you experiencing a pivot within your purpose?   I am, and can I just tell you . . . it feels a little "bouncy" in here right now! But here's the thing: A signal to pivot within your purpose doesn't mean you are wrong. It doesn't necessarily mean you heard wrong or that you've been going in the wrong direction. It can simply mean, " Let's make a sm...

#116// Are you ready to pioneer in this season by God's grace? It sounds like a great idea, right? " Oh, YES, we're definitely going to rely on His grace for everything we do! " But then we step in and get started, and it starts to feel like a grind, slow going -- or worse -- like you're spinning your wheels. Why isn't it working? In this week's episode of the Po...

#115// Revival has had the spotlight for decades in the Church, but God says it's time for Reformation. It's time for the Reformers to rise. The Church has been in a decades-long love affair with the pursuit of revival. And while I'm obviously a big fan of any move of God that would ignite the hearts of the sons and daughters of God to worship and praise Him and to bring Him Glory a...

#114// What is God doing in the Church as we step into a new year?  While I do not consider myself a "big P" prophet, I do believe the Lord speaks to all of us and each of us has the ability to prophesy by the anointing and power of God. Every year, right around the end of September, the Lord will begin to speak to me about the coming year. This year was no different, and I have some thi...

#113// You know the thing I'm talking about, right? That thing that's convinced you it's not going to move, and you're just going to have to deal with it, as is? Yeah, that thing. What are you going to do about it as you step into a new year?  I'm not one who's much for new year's resolutions, but I will admit that the turning of a new year consistently presents...

#112// Are you a Spirit-filled woman who's looking to launch and build a Kingdom business or ministry in the coming year, and you want some help on how to get started?  A little over a year ago, I felt the Lord urging me to form a small collective of entrepreneurial women out of those already gathered inside The Jesus Girl Gang (my online discipleship mentorship) who wanted to build businesse...

#111// What does it look like to vision and make a plan in the Kingdom? Years ago, I felt the Lord urge me to look and see what the Bible had to say about goals and goal setting. When I did, I found that goals -- at least the way we define and approach goals in our culture -- aren't really godly. Now, that's a big statement, I know, but it's important to run everything through the f...

#110// You'll start to see the promises of God come to pass when you make a decision to camp your life around what God has said. On this episode of the Positioned to Prosper podcast, I'm inviting you to pull up a chair for a virtual "coffee talk" as we discuss what it's really going to take to see the promises of God come to pass in our lives. I describe it like setting up...

#109// Have you been wondering why you're not seeing what God has promised yet?   Even though God has promised to perform His word when the time is right (Isaiah 60:22), there might still be something you're doing (or not doing) to cause a "delay" in its fulfillment. But what's really neat is that, there are some things you might be able to do to actually accelerate the fu...

#108//  Do you know the difference between Trust and Faith?   I believe one of the reasons that the people of God do not see more breakthrough and manifestation of the promises of God is because we don't understand that there is a very real and important difference between trust and faith. When we don't understand there is a difference and what role each of these plays in bringing the Ki...

#107// Have you been feeling like you're behind in life, running out of time, and lacking what you need to be truly successful? I'd been feeling this a bit recently, and I decided to take some focused time to sit with the Lord on it. I'm approaching my 49th birthday, and it's recently felt to me like I've been wading through a bit of a "midlife crisis" season . ....

#106// Are you confident that YOU can hear God's voice?  If there's ONE conversation I get into the most with believers, it would be this! There is so much confusion and doubt about whether the "voice" they are hearing is God, the enemy, themselves or someone else. This keeps us in a cycle of confusion and paralysis, and it's absolutely a scheme of the enemy. It's tim...

#105//  Has God called you to operate both in business and in ministry at the same time? If you said "Yes!" then you, my friend, have something I like to call a " Biznistry " -- Business + Ministry. Years ago I operated solely in the marketplace, working for a massive, publicly traded company in their tax accounting department. But then, after 12 years of being in that realm, G...

#104// You know I LOVE a good conversation on gut health, right? Maybe it's because I suffered with digestive and hormonal balances for decades of my life, and then God totally escorted me into radical healing, and that PUMPS me up. Or maybe it's the fact that, as a certified, holistic health coach that "specializes" in digestive and hormonal balance and support, I truly LOVE t...

#103// Where does being anxious for nothing happen? Is it a spirit, soul or body activity?  You could argue that it's definitely a spiritual activity because we find this command in the Bible (Paul to the Philippians). But then there's also the argument, born of the world, that says the *only* way to address anxiety effectively is through physical and/or medicinal means. And what about t...

#102// So, how do you feel about the vengeance of God?   It's a tough one, isn't it? We love to hear about, talk about and meditate on the favor of God, but what if I told you that God's favor isn't full without His vengeance working in the same realm? It's true! The word vengeance is synonymous with the word retribution. Retribution is defined as "recompense or rewar...

#101 // Are you in a wilderness season right now?  When you find yourself in a " wilderness season ," what do you think that means? What does it mean about you? About God? About your circumstances or the people around you? What does experiencing a wilderness season mean to your future and your ability to reach your dreams? According to many of the women I've spoken with over the las...

#100// We've reached Episode 100! So, what's next? We're celebrating 100 episodes on this week's podcast and the celebration wouldn't be complete without thanking the listeners (that's YOU!) and a handful of other very special folks who encouraged, supported and discipled me along the way (visit the show notes here to see who I'm shouting out). From the very firs...

#099// You know we're human BEINGS, not human DOINGS, right? So, why do you think it is that we spend so much of our life focused on the tasks? Focused on the to-do lists, the what to do NOW, the what to do NEXT questions? I believe it has to do with our innate desire to be as "in control" as we can be at every single moment. Honestly, I think we're hanging on WAY too tight mos...

#098// Do you know how to get better results in your life using Biblical principles? If you've listened in on any popular productivity or business coach's podcast or trainings these days, you'll hear one mantra spoken more than any other: "If you want to change your results, change your thoughts." But I've found that if you make it your main goal to change your though...
