Hey there friends! Thanks so much for stopping by, I’m Michelle Castro, the host of the Consider Jesus Podcast. I’ve gone back and forth on what to share here and how to prepare you for what’s to come. I’m a bottom line kinda girl and the nuts and bolts of it is…I want to encourage you to CONSIDER JESUS in all you do, but I also want to do that while having REAL, RAW, and HONEST conversations about those things we, as Christians, just don’t seem to talk about. Things like grief, sex, loss, marriage, parenting, mental health, friendships, and so much more! Through the ups and downs of my own personal story I’ve kinda become the one who tends to rip the bandaid off and say the hard things. Not because it comes naturally…nope, I’d really prefer to keep my dirt hidden, but because, the Lord has so kindly shown me that I am NOT THE ONLY ONE walking these different roads! I know you have a lot on your plate…whether it’s being a wife, mama, working, all of these, some of these, or completely different things…I want this place to be a space of comfort and encouragement! hebrews 3:1 says “Therefore, holy brothers, you who share in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession, Webster’s dictionary defines “consider” like this: “to gaze on steadily or reflectively” I LOVE that! I want to gaze steadily upon Jesus. I want to REFLECT Him in all I do…and I’m guessing…you do too! It’s my desire through this podcast to point you to Jesus while sharing real life stuff with you! You’ll hear from me and some pretty incredible guests. I’m not your typical 51 year old…I have fuschia hair, like my free people barrels, I’m just as happy reading a book on the couch as I am with my miter saw in the garage working on some hair-brained DIY project. I love a little coffee with my creamer, sitting around the kitchen table catching up with my family, and I’ll drive just about anywhere if tacos are involved! Thanks for taking a listen…I’ll see ya inside the pod! :)

You’re doing all the things...the posting, the reels, the lives, the networking, the following up, the prospecting...the list goes on...but at some point did you stop and say..HOLD UP A MIN...is this really working?
Yah yah yah...you know how I feel about understanding who you’re talking to, getting specific… here’s the thing...anyone else out there like a bottom line? Do you like to know what your base objective is so you can build around that?

My content is off.
My mojo is just plain OFF!
I’m gonna simplify it as much as possible for you…
You want to grow that audacious business?

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you're talking with a potential customer and every single back and forth is like pulling teeth. She has an objection for EVERYTHING?
It's the most painful interaction ever.
It's not smooth.
It takes everything out of you.
BUT...you genuinely want to help her...you know your products will help her...but it's just a major struggle!
What if I told you there was an easier way!
What if there was a way where you never had to force a sale again? Or...not even force a sale, but try to make a situation work...that's clearly not working out.
THERE IS A WAY and there's a simple reason why situations like this come up!
That's what we're talking about today!!!

Could YOU be the one holding you back from your business growth?
Sounds preposterous doesnt it!
You want your business to grow...why in the world would you be the obstacle? HOW could you possibly be the obstacle????
I’ll be straight...this has happened to me many times...we get in our own way.
We have unrealistic expectations and it shows!
There's a fundamental reason why this happens!
Hop in and take a listen to today's episode!

Bring the kleenex!
I'm opening up the window a bit more on me and how one of the greatest trials in my life has pulled so much out of me... personally, professionally, and how it's impacted every area of life!
I know you likely have walked through one or many fires in your life...it's hard! In fact, it is downright PAINFUL!!
right!
I know it well.
I'm going to share my heart with you and share how I've harnessed that pain as a way to draw me closer to the Lord, be more present for my family, and help me be a better business woman!
see ya inside!
