EP 196 | Scales Fall Off Now: A Bold Prayer for Discernment & Clarity
Sometimes the enemy makes us think God's focus is elsewhere. But this prayer reminds you: His focus is on you, and your obedience in small acts is where He becomes most alive in your mission.
Rae prays over the listener who needs scales to fall from her eyes, who needs to see clearly what's actually happening, and who's ready to take authority over the territory God has already claimed as hers. This is a prayer for discernment, courage, clarity, and the kind of focus that commands the enemy to leave in Jesus' name.
If you've been waiting for permission to step into what's yours, this is it.

EP195 | Why You Can’t Focus It’s Proof You’re Called (Not Broken)
You're not behind. You're not undisciplined. You're just distracted. And the enemy doesn't need you to fail at your God-given mission. He just needs you busy with everything else.
In this episode, Rae exposes the subtle ways distraction pulls you off course, even when you're doing good things. She shares a raw story from her own life and a powerful conversation with friends that revealed how the enemy targets high-achieving women right at the moment of obedience. If you can list ten things you did today but none of them are the one thing God assigned you, this episode will help you reclaim your focus.
This isn't about doing more. It's about protecting what's yours. Because if the enemy is working this hard to distract you, it means you're dangerous.

EP 194 | When Two Or More Pray: Break Fear, Cover Your Calling
Kerry Tepedino opens this moment with a prayer that feels less like ritual and more like covering. She speaks protection over every listener, provision for what's ahead, and the belief that you're here for a reason, for a specific nugget meant just for you.
There's something about standing together, two or more, that changes the weight of what we carry. Kerry prays over the angels at their post, over the divine plan already in motion, and over the strength that comes from leading with heart instead of hustle. This isn't a full episode. It's a pause, a covering, and a reminder that you're not alone in what you're building.

EP 193 | How to Succeed Without Burnout: Renegotiate Your Old Contracts
Kerry Tepedino has been an entrepreneur for 25 years. She's built brick-and-mortar businesses, scaled globally, raised three kids as a single mom, and still refuses to miss the moments that matter. But it didn't start that way. There were seasons of exhaustion, of measuring herself against to-do lists, of staying tired because it felt easier than stopping.
In this conversation, Kerry and Rae unpack the real cost of hustle culture and why so many high-performing women stay stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Kerry introduces three core questions that help you identify what's driving your burnout, what it's actually costing you, and whether you're willing to renegotiate the contracts you made with yourself years ago. This isn't about quitting. It's about realigning.
If you've ever wondered how to create more success without burning out, or if you're running at full capacity and can't see a way forward, this episode will give you the permission and the framework to build differently.
Key Timestamps
[00:05:30] Kerry's 25-year entrepreneurial journey and her current focus on high-level women
[00:07:45] Why self-care and play are part of the job description, not a luxury
[00:12:10] Renegotiating old contracts with yourself based on your current season
[00:18:30] Why we keep doing things that don't serve us
[00:21:45] Rae shares two powerful journaling questions that shook her this morning
[00:26:00] The cost question: What is it really costing you to stay in this pattern?
Memorable Quotes
"I wasn't willing to stay in burnout for an extended period of time. So it wasn't about quitting. That's different. But I renegotiated based on the season I was then in and the things that were now a priority to me." – Kerry Tepedino [00:12:34]
"We keep doing things even if they're not serving us; we keep doing it because we're still getting something from it, right? Or else we would stop. What is it costing me to continue to do this pattern or have this way of being or this way of thinking or speaking? What is it costing me?" – Kerry Tepedino [00:19:10]

EP 192 | Release Control Today A Bold Prayer to Trust God’s Timing
There's a difference between wanting something and being called to it. This prayer is for the woman who feels the pull but needs confirmation that what's stirring inside her is real, is hers, and is worth protecting.
Rae leads a grounded, intentional prayer asking for clarity on what to nurture and what to release. It's not about knowing the entire path. It's about recognizing the resources already in front of you and stepping forward anyway, hand in hand with something bigger than your own agenda.
Short, focused, and meant to be returned to whenever you need to remember: the desire matters, the timing isn't yours, and you're more ready than you think.

EP 191 | The Cost of Waiting When God Says Prepare, Move Now
The door doesn't open for the person waiting to prepare after the opportunity arrives. It opens for the one who's already been preparing in secret.
Rae shares a raw story about missing an opportunity because she didn't obey when God told her to prepare. It's a vulnerable look at how the enemy uses waiting as a shield against fear, and how disobedience creates space for lies to take root. This isn't about hustling harder or forcing doors open. It's about recognizing that preparation itself is an act of faith, and your obedience in the unseen is what positions you to walk through the door when it finally swings wide.
If you've been telling yourself you'll start when the timing is right, when you have more clarity, or when you feel ready enough, this episode will challenge you to stop worshiping the opinions of others and start taking the one action that proves you trust Him.

EP 190 | Feeling Stuck in Healing? This Powerful Prayer Breaks the Isolation
Sometimes the most powerful moment in a conversation happens before the conversation even starts. Marissa McCrory, a functional health practitioner who helps women heal at the root, opens this episode with a prayer that feels less like a formality and more like an invitation. She prays for the woman who's tired of feeling alone in her health journey. For the woman who has a dream she's too afraid to follow. For the woman who needs to hear that healing isn't just about protocols; it's about being seen.
This isn't a typical health episode. It's a moment of pause, of intention, of asking God to do what no supplement or strategy ever could. If you've been waiting for permission to believe your body can heal or your dream is worth chasing, this might be the sign you didn't know you needed.

EP 189 | The Lies You Believe About Rest (And What It’s Costing You)
High-achieving women are masters at producing. But somewhere between the doing and the building, most of us forgot how to stop giving up on ourselves.
Marissa McCrory is a functional health practitioner who helps women heal at the root by addressing gut health, liver function, mineral balance, and nervous system regulation. But her work goes deeper than protocols. She's unraveling the mental game that keeps women stuck in cycles of self-abandonment, yo-yo habits, and the belief that rest is optional. In this conversation, she and Rae talk about the difference between your who and your do, why every culture except ours cleanses for parasites, and how stewardship of your body is an act of faith, not control.
This isn't about adding more to your plate. It's about recognizing what season you're in and whether you've been shoulding all over yourself for way too long.

Memorable Quotes
"Taking care of our health is actually stewardship. And if you don't get to that point of seeing how amazing and miraculous your body is, it's something He gave you, and it is a walking miracle." – Marissa McCrory [00:24:10]
"Women are convinced that they need to produce way more to be valuable, and a lot of it I have to address, like if we put together a plan and they don't follow it, it's like, okay, so where did you learn to give up on yourself?" – Marissa McCrory [00:31:00]

EP 188 | When You’re Unsure: A Prayer for Discernment and Real Peace
This is a prayer. Not a teaching, not a conversation. Just Ade praying over the podcast, over Rae, and over you.
He asks for wisdom for those trying to figure out what to do with their lives in this space. He prays for discernment, provision, the right team. He prays for people who might be called to give financially or step into coaching. And he prays for peace in the Middle East, for families separated by war, for children caught in the chaos, for anyone listening who might be called to help.
It's short. It's honest. And it's meant for right now.

EP 187 | Why Kids With Parents End Up in Orphanages (Hard Truth)
Ade Olowo moved into a Nigerian orphanage as a "house uncle" to 14 boys when he was supposed to become an engineer. Now he works across Africa, bringing governments, nonprofits, and orphanage leaders to the same table, people who often see each other as the enemy.
The statistic that changes everything: 80% of children in orphanages have at least one living parent. So why are they there? The answers involve poverty, stigma, witchcraft accusations, and systems that were never designed to reunite families. Ade shares stories from the ground, including children burned and accused, leaders who apologized for shutting down orphanages without listening, and the slow, patient work of changing minds across cultures.
This conversation will expand your perspective on what it means to protect the vulnerable, and why the fastest solution isn't always the right one.
