With so many communication apps available now, distance may no longer be an obstacle to having a long distance relationship (LDR). Staying in touch has never been easier; however, actually connecting with someone living a few hundred — or thousand — miles away is still no easy feat. Add that to the normal ups and downs of being in a relationship it's no wonder that LDRs don't work for everyone. However LDRs can and do work — it just takes some creativity, communication, planning, and sometimes, even mentoring. Our guest in this episode is the founder of Undivided, a professional mentoring business specially made for people in long distance relationships. Undivided focuses on personal development, mutual growth, and unlocking for their clients, a rock-solid bond with their partner that not only withstands the tests of distance, but the tests of time. Johnathan Jena was in a long distance relationship himself for over 3 years, bridging the 3,100 miles distance. He and his partner developed ways to help them cope with many of the common issues long-distance couples face (such as loneliness, conflict resolution, intimacy, jealousy, personal growth, etc.).  In a world where long distance love is still often seen as "illegitimate" or "not worth the risk", Johnathan, through his company, wants to show people that there is an easier way to feel close when you're far apart. 00:35:00Christian Biz Owners On FirenoChristian entrepreneurs,long distance relationshipsIn a world where long distance love is still often seen as "illegitimate" or "not worth the risk", Johnathan Jena wants to show people that there is an easier w339aa4fd-34c4-4cfd-93dc-c330eb664c2d155fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/christianbizownersonfire/2019/06/27/making-a-good-impression-via-photos-an-interview-with-stephanie-simpsonWomenhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/christianbizownersonfire/2019/06/27/making-a-good-impression-via-photos-an-interview-with-stephanie-simpson/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/christianbizownersonfire/2019/06/27/making-a-good-impression-via-photos-an-interview-with-stephanie-simpsonThu, 27 Jun 2019 16:00:00 GMTMaking A Good Impression Via Photos: An Interview With Stephanie SimpsonIn this age of infinite choices, small business owners need to be creative in finding ways to stand out in a crowded marketplace.

Photography can help you represent yourself to the world in a way that’s positive, genuine and, most importantly, unique to your business. After all, you and your business are more than a logo.  You as the business owner are the face of your business.

Our guest in this episode spends just as much time identifying your brand as she does behind the camera. Stephanie Simpson, owner of branding photography company Simpson Portraits, has years of experience in marketing, image making, and visual storytelling. That combination of skills makes her uniquely qualified to help you to build your business and your brand. Stephanie helps people feel good about themselves.

But with the development of social media and an increasingly individualized society, the brand you build around yourself is perhaps the single most important way to stand out in your spheres of influence. If you’re interested in becoming a leader in your field or landing your dream job, you need to set up and maintain a digital presence and in person presentation that tells people who you are and why you’re special. But for some reason, many of us aren’t comfortable with developing our personal brand. For some, especially for beginner entrepreneurs, it could feel forced. Or some don’t want to put themselves out there. Or they feel like they’re selling out. What exactly is personal branding and how do you establish an awesome personal brand?   Our guest in this episode, JuliAnn Stitick, is a Personal Brand Strategist with over 22 years of experience working with trusted brands such as Lexus, Nordstrom, Disney, LAPD, Kaiser Permanente and Caruso Affiliated .

In this age of countless options, being able to differentiate yourself from your competitors and position yourself as the person or business most suited to serve them is vital to your success. The secret to getting noticed is authority. When you have authority, people will pay attention. When you are perceived as an expert in your industry, people will naturally want to work with you. They will seek you out instead of you chasing them. Our guest in this episode talks about the importance of first and foremost establishing yourself to be an authority figure in your industry rather than focusing on generating leads and converting those prospects into clients. Weston Lyon is the author of 19 books and one of the only authors to ever write nine books in eleven months.

But what if you are told that you do not just give, but to give a percentage of what you are actually earning? The first ten percent, to be specific. This is called tithing. When it comes to topic of tithing, many Christians want to rationalize. For those who find themselves in financial trouble, tithing doesn’t make sense from an economic standpoint. One person who found himself questioning the Bible teaching of tithing led him to an experiment that changed the course of his life.   Michael Holmes, founder of tithehacker.org, shares how a ”tithing experiment” took him from unemployed, broke, and in debt to a six-figure income in a matter of 2 years. 00:31:00Christian Biz Owners On FirenoChristian Business,Christian,christian business owner,Christian entrepreneurMichael Holmes, founder of tithehacker.org, shares how a "tithing experiment” took him from unemployed, broke, and in debt to a six-figure income in a matter of2dc355b2-fbbb-4c9a-8ba5-7340e491e396145fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/christianbizownersonfire/2018/09/13/whats-manifesting-your-vision-all-aboutWomenhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/christianbizownersonfire/2018/09/13/whats-manifesting-your-vision-all-about/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/christianbizownersonfire/2018/09/13/whats-manifesting-your-vision-all-aboutThu, 13 Sep 2018 16:00:00 GMTWhat's "Manifesting Your Vision" all about?If you watch any of my Facebook Live videos, read my blogs, or are a regular listener to Christian Biz Owners on Fire radio show, you've heard me invite you and others to do a Manifesting Your Vision session with me.  So what the heck is that and why is it a good investment of your time and money.

How come we’re discussing about being angry this time? At its worst, anger can be incredibly frustrating and vexing, and it can become a tremendous obstacle to our success. At its best, however, anger is an emotion that can fuel us to great success–and ultimately, even happiness–so long as we control the anger we feel, and don't let it control us.

Nobody plans to get sick, but the number one reason businesses get put up for sale is a health scare suffered by the owner. Illness of the owner or another crisis can lead the owner to sell the business only getting pennies on the dollar.  Small business owners have to manage their funds to stay in business. With the daily challenges of making a business work, putting plans in place to protect the company and owner from potentially fatal events in the future often is not a current day financial priority. Luis Beeli helps educate business owners on the real risks while providing an affordable means to protect the business they are building.   Being too tight with money to the point of restricting and sacrificing the potential growth of your business or ignoring or minimizing future risks can do more harm than good.  The key, according to our guest in this episode, is to be creative in managing your finances and risks. And one of the ways to turn costs into assets is making money from your credit card processing rather than having to pay that out. How is it done? Luis sheds some light on this topic. Luis is the CEO of Lunar Financial Services, a company that creates protection for businesses should the owner becomes ill. 00:31:00Christian Biz Owners On FirenoChristian Business,Christian,solopreneursLuis Beeli helps educate business owners on the real risks while providing an affordable means to protect the business they are building.d3ab0baf-9cb8-45f1-bf9c-88a998882c20134fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/christianbizownersonfire/2018/06/14/old-school-tactics-for-new-age-entrepreneurs-an-interview-with-gail-foleyWomenhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/christianbizownersonfire/2018/06/14/old-school-tactics-for-new-age-entrepreneurs-an-interview-with-gail-foley/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/christianbizownersonfire/2018/06/14/old-school-tactics-for-new-age-entrepreneurs-an-interview-with-gail-foleyThu, 14 Jun 2018 16:00:00 GMTOld-School Tactics for New-Age Entrepreneurs: An Interview with Gail FoleyIn this digital age where business owners are endlessly being told just how critical web presence is to their business’s success, it’s but natural to feel overwhelmed.

In instances of a promotion or a new position, a manager or business owner needs to have a plan in place for his or her departure—including a solid suggestion for someone to fill the role. And that means one needs to be preparing his/her employees for leadership now. Regardless of their position or department, the people in your organization have the potential, with the right coaching, to become better leaders.

While caregiving may feel like something natural for others–you are, after all, caring for someone you love–it can oftentimes be a stressful time in a carer’s life.  As a family caregiver, how do you avoid getting overwhelmed by the multitude of tasks and not neglect your own well-being?

While these are part of a company’s mission statement, oftentimes, the majority of employees have no direct connection to the work that is being done. Instead, they may see a picture of their CEO handing out a giant check or watch on the sideline as another executive is honored for giving back, all the while having no understanding as to how they have personally contributed. In this episode, we talk about how to turn employees from being passive spectators into engaged contributors to your social enterprise.   Our guest in this episode believes in order for a company’s “Culture of Good” to be successful and meaningful, giving back must be ingrained in the foundation of its core values.   Ryan McCarty is an author, speaker and the co-founder of Culture of Good, Inc.

He created the human body, and he is pleased when we enjoy health and vigor. But in this world, our bodies endure sickness and pain. Sometimes we abuse our own bodies, but often our ailments occur because -- well, we don't always know why, nor does God promise that we will understand why. When mainstream medicine and all else fails, one could only go down on his/her knees and pray for healing. After all, the Bible tells us to pray for whatever we need, and that includes freedom from pain. And this is exactly what our guest in this episode did two decades ago. When her health failed she did what most Christians do, went forward for prayer and began seeing doctors.  After lots of prayer and 11 or 12 doctors in 18 months, she canceled all her medical appointments and began chasing God for answers.  He showed up and took her on an amazing journey and taught her that it was pointless to heal someone who would only return to their diet, environment, and relationships that made them ill in the first place.   She hasn't been to a mainstream medical doctor for an illness since 1989 because God taught her how to care for her body and how to hear His voice guiding her through this maze of life.   Hers is a powerful story of healing.

In this case, the playing field is the market and the players within the game are the different companies and entrepreneurs competing for customers in the industry. Undoubtedly, competition in business is just as fierce as on a field, and the strengths of good  entrepreneurs can be strikingly similar to successful athletes. There are similarities between the world of entrepreneurs and the world of athletes – parallels that can give direction to business owners who are trying to succeed on the playing field of economics. In this episode we discuss business as a mental game, mind-conditioning tricks athletes use to be successful in their sporting careers, and how entrepreneurs can apply this mentality to their businesses.

If you are in a stage of your business wherein if you do not start something yourself or generate it, it doesn’t get done–then it only means you have not created a system for your business. A system is a series of processes that dictates how one part of your company operates. Once implemented, a system requires little thought and minimal effort to maintain. If you ever wondered how other biz owners can possibly step away from their growing business to take a vacation–systems are how they do it. When set up effectively, they enable your business to run without you—at least when necessary. In this episode, we talk to an expert who specializes in working with people to help them create systems that work. Kevin A Dunlap is an Entrepreneur Strategist.

When Jesus was born it was in a stable surrounded by animals.   Animals in the bible go on to be associated with The Holy Trinity, with God sometimes referred to as the great “lion” of Judah, Jesus Christ as the “lamb” of God, and the Holy Spirit as a “dove” that descended from heaven.   With these mentions of animals as well as in others biblical passages that connect animals to people and faith, it only goes to show a reflection of God’s own love of animals and his want for humans to take care of them. Our guest for today talks about lessons of faith from animal ministry.

Others long to combine their love of God with their professional pursuits.
