On today’s episode of The Christ-Driven Woman, Charisse is joined by Dr. Dionne Greaves, a business lifestyle strategist and founder of The Mompreneur CEO. Dr. Greaves believes she has been called to support and encourage high-achieving women as they navigate life’s challenges and transitions, and she is driven by a mission to redefine success. Charisse and Dr. Greaves engage in an inspiring conversation about success, authenticity, and reliance on God, and they highlight the following points:
- Self-discovery is an ongoing process, and requires patience and compassion
- When you are feeling pressure in your life, that is not the time for you to pull back, but to push through
- You will not be able to serve others well without doing the inner work and showing up for yourself first
- When you start by surrendering to God in the little things, it makes it that much easier to surrender to Him in the big things
- The Lord wants to hear from you in the midst of your struggles, but He also needs you to listen
Many high-achieving women lack the support systems and safe spaces they need because they’ve grown accustomed to pretending that they have it all together. Charisse and Dionne remind listeners that perfection is an unattainable standard, and the Lord doesn’t ask for us to be perfect, but to be authentic. If you find yourself lacking the support you need to withstand the pressure, look to the Lord and take ownership of your purpose. When you are living the purpose-driven life, the Lord is your pilot and chief navigator. So what are you going to do with the situation that God has placed you in? Will you answer His call and plant something that He can one day harvest?
