The Sister Circle Podcast

One of the hardest things to face is the reality of a situation. It’s so much easier to hide from what’s happening, but when we decide to do something about frustrating circumstances, that’s when we can really take ownership of our lives.

In this episode of the podcast, I address what causes us to remain stagnant and the things we can do to activate agency in our lives. 

No matter what has happened in your life, you have the power within you to take ownership of the next step you take. I’ll help you do just that.

Highlights from Today’s Episode

Facing the facts about your situation

Having the courage to heal

Living within your capacity

How important is prayer to you? For author and speaker Heather Thompson Day, prayer is her lifeline to God. It’s what keeps her going when life seems to take a turn for the worse. And when those prayers, those petitions to God, have been answered over time, it’s amazing to witness the promises God has fulfilled.

During our conversation, I was reminded of the power of pressing through the hard times, because that’s when we draw closer to Him like never before. If you’re looking for a sign to keep going on your journey, then this episode is for you.

The post #582 – The Two-List Rule first appeared on Chrystal Evans Hurst.

Are you living paycheck to paycheck, struggling with budgeting, or wondering why financial freedom feels out of reach? In this episode, I’m sitting down with financial coach Theresa Bartelle to discuss biblical money management, budgeting, financial mindset, and practical steps to break free from financial stress. 

Theresa shares her powerful story of going from financial overwhelm as a young military wife to helping women build wealth, eliminate financial dysfunction, and steward money God’s way. In this episode, we unpack common budgeting mistakes, scarcity thinking, emergency funds, retirement planning, and why obedience – not income – is often the key to lasting financial peace. 

Whether you’re trying to get out of debt, save money, create a budget, or simply become a better steward of what God has entrusted to you, this conversation will encourage you to face your finances with courage, wisdom, and hope.
