Hey there friend! I’m BACK!!! Oh man! I’m so incredibly excited to be back with ya’ll! No...I’m not from the south. :) Born and raised in Southern California and it’s never been more apparent to me how important and essential my relationship with Jesus is! He is my life, my breath, and my everything! Sure...I try to help him out way more than I should, but then I remember HE DOESN’T NEED MY HELP! Talk about a blow to the ego! But that’s what He wants...right? He wants us to remember that we NEED Him for EVERYTHING...every single day! That’s what we’re talking about here on the podcast. Marriage, motherhood, and everything in between...it’s hard with Jesus and even harder without him. If you’re here, then I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that you’re like me...you find yourself a little too firmly planted in this world and you’re seeking Jesus more and more. You want your marriage, your motherhood, your work, your fun to mean more...you want to make a difference in the little and big moments of the day. You want to seek Jesus in every conversation, in every moment! Well, if that’s you...then you’re in the right place! Welcome...I’m Michelle Castro. Wife to my sweet hubby for nearly 27 years, mama to three daughters here on earth and one sweet son in Heaven. I’m always up to find amazing tacos, grab an iced latte, head to the beach, or hang out at home with the fam watching a movie, eating popcorn, and doing who knows what! I don’t believe in accidents...so I’m glad you’re here and I can’t wait to see what the Lord has in store! xx, Michelle email: itsmemichellecastro@gmail.com instagram: @growthagainstthegrainpodcast

Let's be real for a second...if you're alive on this earth right now...YOU'RE BUSY! We all are! Add in a spouse, kids, work, and LIFE...and that busyness is multiplied a million times!
In today's episode I want to challenge you to take a good look at the words you're using and how they could, potentially, be having a negative affect not just on your mindset...but your business and life! This one 4-letter word could be more detrimental to all your hard work than just about anything else you do! Pretty strong statement...wouldn't you agree?
Hop in, take a listen, and let me know what you think!

YOU, yes YOU are the absolute most important part of your Network Marketing / Direct Sales business. The products are great, the company is wonderful...but the key component is YOU!!!
Today, my friend, Christine is going to share with us the four Ps of Success in your Network Marketing business!!
You are going to LOVE her!
Christine is a military spouse (thank you for your service Hinrich family!), #girlmom of three littles, marketing strategist, former coffee house owner and lover of all things coffee.
She is the host of the MilSpouse Mastermind Show, a podcast dedicated to helping military spouses get unstuck and craft lives with purpose today. After four moves and three babies in four years, she became an “accidental stay at home mom”. She realized that she had lost sight of who she was and what she had to offer. She began a journey to find herself again and figure out how she could use her skills and story to do something that would both light her up and impact the world for good, and do it in sustainable way that worked for her family. Her mission is to help military spouses learn to thrive, and show them how they can use their skills, passions and experiences to impact the world for good, without sacrificing what matters most.
She believes every day is better with a cup of good coffee.

33 // EXCUSES = THE DEATH OF YOUR NETWORK MARKETING BUSINESS
Thursday Jul 22, 2021
Thursday Jul 22, 2021
Oh mama!
I know! I know!
You have a million and one things going on and there are just as many reasons why your business may not be going in the direction you had planned it to go. You set the goals, you had the convos, and it seems that it's just not working.
I've been there...far more often than I'd like to admit...and when I'm there...I find every excuse in the book to defer the attention off of the actual problem!
We're talking about the ONE reason why we choose excuses over execution!
You ready???

There seem to be two types of people in the Network Marketing world with 5 days left in the month...
One looks at it and says...oh man, there's only 5 days left...there's no chance I can hit those goals...oh well...I'll try next month!
AND THEN THERE'S #2...
She looks at the 5 days and the fire EXPLODES!
She sees the 5 days as 120 hours...120 opportunities to close the gap on where she's at and where she wants to be!
If you're like me and are a #2...then...you're gonna LOVE this episode.
I take you through exactly what I did earlier this week to plan for the final week of the month!
We're going to get super practical and you're going to walk away with a plan of attack!!!
Who's with me on this?

Hey mama...what if I told you that your hormones...you know the ones that seem to go from one end of the spectrum to the other...yah...those...what if they could actually be your SUPER POWER!!!
I KNOW!
I felt the same way when I heard that too.
But, then...think about it! The Lord made us women with these incredible hormones and I have to agree with my friend SJ, that we can absolutely harness them to help us be our most productive!!!
That's what we're talking about today!
Harnessing those super power hormones to power through that to-do list and all the things you have going on!
Hop on in and take a listen!!
xx,
