In today's lie, Jessica wants to set some people free. Free from the things they feel like they have to do to be successful. For example, making my bed every morning makes me successful. These lies or rules that we form as habits can easily make us feel like we are missing the mark on success if we miss a day of doing them. The list goes on, and the pressure goes up. Rarely will you hear a "successful" person contribute their success to making their bed every morning. You will usually hear things like it took consistency, discipline, persistence, obedience, or surrender. What does this tell us? It's about our character. Our experiences form our thoughts, and our thoughts shape our emotions, our emotions form our actions. The goal of this podcast is to address different lies we believe in in various areas of our lives. Why? Because every lie can bleed into another area of our lives.

You don't want to miss this episode with Malinda Fuller. In this episode, Malinda and I talk about the lie people believe. That lie is that hustling is required for success.Malinda unpacks the difference between working hard and being a workaholic. She described the difference between hustle and obedience. (Y'all it's so good.) The thing I love the most about this episode is that Malinda shows us what all of this looks like according to scripture.

I'll often hear this on repeat, "I can't hear from God." My follow up question is usually something like, "How much time have you spent recently reading your Bible? Or, how much time have you spent meditating on scripture?" Asking those questions is not to condemn anyone because I am raising my hand too. Often we want from God. We want Him to give us something, so we make our faith based on our feelings, and our relationship becomes regulated by the resources he does or does not provide at the moment. Tune in to this episode to be set free from this lie and to begin to hear His voice!

I need to be fit first is one of the most common objections I receive when I talk with women about starting their own fitness business. I need to be fit first is really our heart screaming and the enemy deceiving you about your qualification. If we take it one step further, deceiving you about your worth. You may even catch yourself saying, "Once I'm fit, then I can be influential." Or, "Once I'm fit, then I'll finally do what God has been calling me to do."The underlying lie to all of this is, I'm not good enough for this. (Insert your own personal "this" situation.)How can you get past this lie of feeling like you have to have a perfect body before you think you can influence or a testimony?Listen in to find out!Full show notes here: http://www.jessicahottle.com/podcast Join Jessica’s team as a fitness motivator here: http://www.jessicahottle.com/coaching

In the world of hustle and "making goals happen," there seems to be this internal switch that goes on. It says something like, "I need to be better than her to reach my goals." This kind of thinking makes our sister the enemy, and the lusts of the flesh, like jealousy, rise to the occasion. Most of our striving and desire to be better than her stem from a place within ourselves that hasn't fully encountered Jesus' love yet. In this episode, Jessica discusses why we feel the need to compare and taking it one step further by sharing three specific things to do when you feel like you are comparing yourself to the woman beside you!

You may not come out and directly say, "My past defines me." However, you may say something like, "I don't deserve this. I have done this, so I deserve this." (You fill in whatever "this" is for you.) We limit God because we believe that what we have done in the past is too big, too much, and way too sin-filled for His blood to make us new. Most of us are either past focused or future-focused but rarely ever present focused. Our salvation and who we are isn't based on our works or what we do or have done. This episode specifically covers the topic of how to overcome your past for a powerful future.
