The Numbers Don't Lie

Divorce rate among christian entrepreneurs

  • A study conducted on entrepreneurs found that entrepreneurs face a higher risk of divorce compared to the general population, likely due to the added stress and demands of running a business.However, christian couples who have a shared mission and purpose have the lowest divorce rate among entrepreneurs. This suggests that having a shared sense of purpose and values can play a significant role in the strength of a marriage. 

You will never be a failure if you choose to always win or learn.

Making A World Of Difference For Women & Couples

1. What do you think is the biggest mistake a person can make as an entrepreneur?

The biggest mistake a person can make as an entrepreneur is waiting for everything to be perfect before starting. This can lead to missed opportunities, delays in launching and an overall lack of progress. It is important for entrepreneurs to understand that no business or idea is ever truly perfect, and that it is better to take action and make adjustments along the way than to wait for everything to be in place. Additionally, taking action is the only way to gain feedback and learn what works and what doesn’t.

2. What are you most proud of in your life so far?

One of the things I am most proud of is building a successful business without sacrificing my marriage or family. I believe that it is possible to have a fulfilling career and a strong personal life, and I have worked hard to create a balance that allows me to do both. I am proud of the work that I have put in to create a business that is not only successful but also one that allows me to be present and involved in my personal life. I have learned that by setting boundaries and being intentional about my time, I am able to grow my business while also investing in my relationships with my loved ones. It has not been easy but it has been worth it, and I am grateful for the support of my family and team that have helped me to achieve this balance.

3. How do you define success?

I define success as fulfilling one’s divine design and purpose while remaining balanced in life. To me, success is not just about achieving financial or professional goals, but also about living a life that is true to who you are, and that aligns with your values and passions. It means living a life that is authentic and meaningful, and that brings you joy and fulfillment. Success also means being able to maintain a balance in all areas of life, such as work, relationships, health, and personal growth. It means being able to find harmony and balance between different aspects of your life and not letting any one area consume you. In short, success is about living a life that is in alignment with your unique purpose and design, and that allows you to thrive in all areas of your life.

4. What is your favorite quote?

My favorite quote is from Theodore Roosevelt’s “Man in the Arena” speech, which states: “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly.”

This quote speaks to me about the importance of taking action and striving for greatness, even in the face of challenges and setbacks. It reminds me that true success comes from those who are willing to put themselves in the arena, take risks, and work hard to achieve their goals. It also highlights the importance of perseverance, even in the face of failure, and the importance of having a worthy cause to fight for.

5. What is it like to be a woman leader in the business world?

Being a female business leader in the world can be both challenging and rewarding. On one hand, women in leadership positions often face a unique set of challenges such as unconscious bias. 

On the other hand, being a female business leader also offers many opportunities and advantages. Women bring a unique perspective, skills, and leadership styles to the table, which can be valuable assets in any organization. Moreover, being a female leader can be a source of inspiration and empowerment for other women and young girls, showing them that they can also achieve success in a business world.

Overall, being a female business leader requires resilience, determination and the ability to navigate through the challenges, but it can be a fulfilling and rewarding experience. It is important to surround oneself with a supportive network, seek mentorship and sponsors, and to not give up on pursuing one’s goals.

6. How has your life changed since you started The Higher View?

Since starting The Higher View, my life has become richer in many ways. One of the most significant changes has been the relationships I have built through the business.
