Quotable Quotes from the Ladies:
“If God is calling you to create, build, and sell you have the opportunity and technology to do so! The only thing holding you back – is YOU.” // Megan
“The first question I ask is, ‘Can I handle this? But it’s the wrong question to ask. What I really need to ask is, ‘God what do you want me to do?’” // Gretchen
“Understanding what season you’re in is so important. Trust God is in all of the seasons and will help you shift things around accordingly. Your rest is your weapon.” // Kristin
“What are you sowing? And how consistently are you sowing it? This is important to figure out. Many bail too soon b/c they’ve bought into the myth of overnight success story.” // Andrea
“If you don’t love what God has called you to do and it feels like a grind – there is a kink in the hose! By and large – you should love what you do.” // Gretchen
“Hustle bleeds into your relationships and compromises your core values because you think you have to do it all 24/7. Consistency is more like seasonally tending to your garden.” // Megan
“Any treasure is what we’re storing up in heaven. There is freedom when we broaden our definition of what success looks like from a Kingdom perspective.” // Andrea
“If God is going to take something for a season, He’s going to replace it with something even better.” // Kristin
