Are you ready to invest in yourself for the sake of your dream?
Does it feel like investing in yourself is selfish? You’re not alone. In this episode, I dive into why self-investment is actually a form of stewardship, preparing you for the unique role God has designed for you.
IF YOU CHOOSE NOT TO INVEST IN YOURSELF BECAUSE IT FEELS SELFISH, THIS IS THE EPISODE FOR YOU!
One of the most powerful takeaways from this episode is the mindset shift from seeing self-investment as selfish to viewing it as an act of stewardship. Many women struggle with this or feel uncomfortable asking for what they need out of concern for the family budget or other responsibilities.
Those are valid concerns, but there’s another way to consider the reality that we all need support for our big dreams and that making a decision to invest in yourself—alongside the people who will be impacted—is actually a form of stewardship rather than selfishness.
If you’re a Christian woman with a big dream, this episode is your invitation to embrace a new way of looking at how to be a responsible steward of what God has given you.
Tune in for practical insights, biblical wisdom, and testimonials from women who have taken the leap of faith to get the support they need for their God-shaped dreams.
In this episode you’ll learn:
💫 Why investing in yourself is stewardship not selfishness

Scripture:
For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same
function, so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of
another. Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them.
~ Romans 12:4-6 (ESV)
Make a careful exploration of who you are and the work you have been given, and then sink
yourself into that. Don’t be impressed with yourself. Don’t compare yourself with others.
Each of you must take responsibility for doing the creative best you can with your own life.
~ Galatians 6:4-5 (MSG)
Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men.
~ Colossians 3:23 (ESV)
For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, whether
he has enough to complete it? Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is not able to finish,
all who see it begin to mock him, saying, “This man began to build and was not able to finish.”
~ Luke 14:28-30 (ESV)
