🎧 SPOTIFY SHOW NOTES

🗓 Summary

If you’ve been faithful but discouraged by how long things are taking, this episode is for you. I’m talking about why the real battle isn’t starting—it’s staying. When growth feels slow and silence feels loud, this is your reminder that roots grow before fruit.

✨ Who This Is For

Faith-driven women entrepreneurs who:

• Feel tempted to quit because results are taking longer than expected
• Wonder if their obedience is actually working
• Are tired of second-guessing themselves during slow seasons

🔎 What You’ll Learn

• Why short-game thinking quietly sabotages faithfulness
• How God grows roots before fruit
• How to shift your mindset, words, and actions to stay in the game
• Why slow seasons are often preparation, not punishment
• What faithful consistency actually looks like with God

💬 Sound Bites

• “God grows fruit in people, but only in those who stay long enough to see it.”
• “The real temptation isn’t failing—it’s quitting too soon.”
• “Roots grow before shoots, and silence doesn’t mean nothing is happening.”
• “Faithfulness isn’t flashy—it’s steady.”

🛠️ Courageous Action

Name the area where you’re tempted to quit too early.
Ask Father what “watering the roots” looks like right now.
Commit to staying for the next seven days—then repeat.
