Today on The Andrea Engstrom Show my gorgeous co-host Brenda Stroud and I are getting vulnerable.

We always want to be real with y’all and so today we are sharing some of the tougher pieces of our stories that have shaped us into the coaches we are today.

On today’s podcast we are talking about times in our lives where we felt broken and how those experiences became building blocks for our lives.

In this episode we talk about: learning from the challenges in our lives, making conscious choices about who you are going to be, allowing obstacles to take us to the next level, and creating impact rather than just income.

Pay attention to the Take BOLD Action Challenge this week which is to REST.

Rest is tough when you are trying to make ends meet– but sometimes the most necessary thing you can do. Let God do His thing, so that you can become who you were made to be.

Today’s episode of The Andrea Engstrom Show is very special to me. It features one of my wildest client success stories and I am so excited for you to hear it for yourself.

In today’s video my co-host Brenda and I chat with the wonderful Kari Oslon as she recaps her journey from foreclosure to 100K in 109 days!

Kari is a Christian Women’s business coach who helps women to use the gifts and talents God has given them for purpose and impact in their businesses. Kari’s journey is evidence that once you nail your niche and unlock the audience you were meant to be sharing to, everything can change.

In this episode, we talk about how healed people heal people– we have to do the work within ourselves before we can help others, how taking messy action can change your life, and about developing a relationship with God so that we can discern his will and desires for our lives.

Kari reminds us that we shouldn’t keep so busy that we miss out on checking in with ourselves and with God–that’s a great way to get lost.

The Take Bold Action Challenge for today is to get quiet and seek the Lord. Find the space where you can connect with God and be in His presence– whether that’s nature, or quiet time in your home– and spend time in scripture, talking to God and asking Him what He has for you.

In today’s episode of The Andrea Engstrom Show, my co-host Brenda and I are talking about common mistakes that entrepreneurs make in business.

In this episode, Brenda and I talk about communication dos and don'ts, being honest and real about the resources you have at your disposal, and seeking wise counsel to move past obstacles.

We are sharing these from personal experience–no one is perfect, but we want you to be aware of these mistakes before you make them!

Your Take Bold Action Challenge this week is to do some reflection. What is the one thing you keep pushing off? It’s time to deal with it. Face it. Have the tough conversation, do the thing you’ve been pushing off– don’t let it steal your energy anymore.

We are back with another episode of The Andrea Engstrom Show! This week my co-host Brenda and I are talking with the fabulous Nikisha King.

Nikisha is a powerhouse coach who helps women entrepreneurs scale their businesses through visibility, sales, and systems. She has gone through every change imaginable and come out the other side with a defined sense of who she is and what she has to offer the world– something that is clear from our amazing conversation today!

In this episode, Nikisha shares some pieces of her story and how she became the businesswoman she is today. She shares about stepping into your true identity by disrupting the negative self-talk, setting aside selfish thoughts so that you can show up to impact others, and how not to fade into the background when you are entering “the old boys club.”

Brenda and I enjoyed our conversation with Nikisha so much and we hope you will too– take some notes, because Nikisha is dropping some gold nuggets in this episode!

Take Bold Action Challenge: Nikisha challenges listeners to ask two questions of people when they are in a networking event or situation: First, “How do you create impact in the world?” And second, “Outside of work and your family and friends– what brings you the most joy?”

On this week’s episode of The Andrea Engstrom Show, I am back with my lovely co-host Brenda and we are talking about how to be tenacious!

We aren’t just talking about being outspoken, although that can be part of it. We are talking about becoming the woman you were made to be, stepping into the plans God has for you, and not letting resistance lead you to quit but to press on.

Brenda and I both share experiences where we hit a wall or someone told us no and how we responded with bold action and showed up with tenacity.

Our Take Bold Action Challenge for you this week is to go back to the one thing that caused you to shut down– what stole your fire? Let’s revisit it– ask yourself: have I explored it fully? Could I take one more step?

The woman who wins is the woman who lasts. Your job isn't to be fearless, it is to not quit.

In this week’s episode of The Andrea Engstrom Show, Brenda and I chat about the ways we’ve been able to free ourselves up to make more of our dreams come true.

For me, it has meant being able to move my family to Colorado, to a little mountain town.

For Brenda, it’s getting to spend the summer in Tuskegee, in the community she’s had the opportunity to invest her time and money into!

In this episode, Brenda and I talk about how we got to this place of getting to live out our dreams, being willing to make the hard calls in our own lives, and how to invest your time and energy so that it will serve you better.

If you feel trapped in the cycle of your life, then I encourage you to check out this episode and pay special attention to the Bold Action Challenge.

Take Bold Action Challenge: Do a self inventory.

• What are your strengths?
• What do you know about yourself and what you have overcome?
• What are the things I can bring forward?
• Where could my time be better/more effectively spent?
