So, chantel, we're super happyto have you here.
So this is super great.
Why don't you tell everybodywhat it is that you do
(01:56):
specifically and why in theworld do you do it?
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Well, it's very interesting that you ask that
question First of all.
Oh my goodness me, elise.
Thank you so much for having me.
It is so great to be here withyou.
I have been looking forward toour time and you know, it's
interesting that you start withthat question because it always
kind of tickles me a little bitwhen I hear that question.
(02:20):
Right, it's just like Chantal,who are you?
And it's like always whenpeople ask I don't know if
you've noticed this, but it'sjust like whenever people ask
you, tell me about yourself orwho are you.
Isn't it funny how weautomatically go to talk about
all of the things that we do,and I have been so challenged
(02:41):
lately to really begin to focuson, rather than saying all of
the things we do, actually talkabout who I am as far as like,
what makes me me like, what arethe things that I am, and so I
will tell you I absolutely, 100%, always say that before I say
(03:02):
anything else first and foremost, I am a daughter of the king of
kings.
Before I got that, before I sayanything else, first and
foremost, I am a daughter of theKing of Kings.
Before I got married, before Ihad all my lovely kiddos, and I
make it sound like there's somany of them.
There's actually only two, butthat's okay.
Before that, I was a daughter.
I still am a daughter.
I'm a daughter of the King ofKings, which makes me royalty,
which makes me co-heirs to thethrone with Christ, and so,
(03:27):
first and foremost, I alwayslove to say that I am a daughter
, because I am a daughter, I'm adaughter of my parents, but I'm
also a daughter of the King ofKings and Lord of Lords.
I am also, as you mentioned, awife to my incredible husband,
christian.
We've been married for nineyears, almost.
Oh, my goodness, wow, it hasbeen a ride.
My husband is from Florida,born and raised, he is Puerto
(03:52):
Rican hence the last name,santiago, and not the Hispanic
or American accent at all and Iam originally from Australia.
So two crazy kids fell in love,got married and I ended up
moving to the other side of theworld.
And I'm also a mom to my twobeautiful children, zion and
Zara.
Zion is three and a half andZara is one and a half, and they
(04:15):
are just the joys of my lifeand just keep me busy.
I am also a co-founder of Bornto Rule Global, but more than
anything, born to Rule Global isreally just who we are.
It's who we are as a family but, more importantly, as a couple.
Christian initially wrote abook called Born to Rule,
reclaiming your God-givenbirthright to rule here on earth
(04:37):
.
And out of that I just went tohim and I just said, babe, I'm
so proud of you.
And he's like, I found my lifemessage.
And I said, well, that's great,but you've actually found both
of our life, in fact, found ourfamily's life message.
You found what our family isgoing to be known for.
And I will tell you these twolittle kiddos that we've got
(04:58):
that is exactly the life thatthey are already starting to
live.
So, anyway, that's a little bitabout me and, yeah, what I've
got going on.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
That's wonderful.
Okay, so I want to dive intothat a little bit more, about
your family.
Right, it sounds like you havea family mission, like what your
whole family is working towards.
So, like you said, your kidsare one and a half and three and
a half, correct?
Yes yes, how do you live thatout practically with little
people in your life?
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Right.
So I will tell you one thingyou know and this is something
that my husband and I have beenso blessed to be able to walk
other couples through it doesn'tmatter if they've been married
for 25 years we actually havehad helped people have been
married for a lot longer than usbut it doesn't matter if people
are engaged, wanting to getmarried or just about to get
married or just married andthey're just wanting some
(05:48):
direction.
You know, one of the thingsthat we always tell them is that
mission is critical for ahealthy marriage.
Mission is critical for ahealthy marriage, and you know I
will tell you this.
And you know I will tell youthis.
We came together for a mission,on a mission, for a mission,
and the reason why we know thisto be so important when it comes
(06:12):
to the kingdom of God is thatwhen we tell people that we
didn't like, we didn't cometogether for love, we didn't
come together for happiness.
People are almost like shocked,like what did you just say?
But the reason why we say thisis because you look at love.
If you look at happiness,beautiful feelings, but they're
(06:32):
feelings nonetheless, and sowhen the chips are down, when
things are tough, the love isnot always there, and most
certainly not happiness.
Let me tell you.
There have been a few timeswhere I've wanted to wring my
husband's neck.
I'm going to be honest with youguys today, is that okay?
But I will tell you that wewill always get through it, and
(06:54):
the reason why we will alwaysget through it, regardless of
the feelings that may befleeting, is that mission will
sustain you when love andhappiness disappear, mission
will always sustain you,practically.
What does that look like nowthat we have a family?
Well, one of the things that welove to do with our kids is we
just created a list of dailymantras or values you might want
(07:16):
to call them values.
We have daily mantras, and wehave one in my son's room, one
in my daughter's room, and so weread these to the kids and we
make it lots of fun, but it'sinstilling in them from a very
young age that this is who weare, this is how we operate, and
so it's just one thing that weget to do with these kids and
(07:37):
instill in them the values thatwe hold as a family and who we
represent when you you starttalking about god that's so
great.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Yeah, I think that's very practical especially when
they're so little right like not, it's hard to do a lot with one
and a half and three and a halflisten it's got to be fun it's
got to be engaging, it's got tobe a good time smiling yes, yes,
absolutely it's, but that'svery practical, like we just
read, we talk about it, it is apart of our life, the way that
the bible tells us like read ouryou know, recite scripture when
(08:10):
you lay down, when you'rewalking, when you're you know,
up all those things, and so justdoing that with your life
verses or with your life mission, like that's super great, very
practical.
Yeah, so this is, um, obviouslycalled the peaceful mompreneur,
right, right?
So let's talk a little bitabout peace.
Yeah, so many people definepeace as simply the absence of
stress or chaos.
(08:30):
So what is your approach ontrue peace and can you explain
what it really looks like?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Yeah, absolutely.
So.
Here's the thing with truepeace, right.
So we often think that you know, when we think about peace, we
often think of peace as theabsence of noise, hey, you know,
the absence of conflict orbusyness, but really, at the end
of the day, true peace isactually divine order.
(08:55):
So, as a mom, that means truepeace is actually when your home
, when your business and whenyour spirit are actually aligned
with God's word, notoverwhelmed by the weight of the
world.
And if you feel yourselfconstantly catching up and
cleaning up and barely keepingup, that's not peace.
(09:17):
It's not.
That's actually called survival, survival 101 at its best right
.
But here's the thing God nevercalled us just to survive.
He called you to walk indominion.
That was his very firstinstruction when he created man
was to walk in dominion.
And I even think of thescripture in um, second
(09:39):
thessalonians, chapter three,where it says now may the Lord
of peace himself give you peacealways, in every way.
The Lord be with you all.
And so that just tells mereally that peace isn't found in
a perfectly planned schedule.
It's actually found in yourability to surrender control to
(10:02):
God and align your actions withhis wisdom.
You know, I think of myself, foran example.
Like I used to think that peacemeant getting everything under
control.
I did, I really did, but thatwas until I realized that peace
is actually about surrenderingthe control to God, and the more
(10:24):
I tried to force peace, themore exhausted I became.
Really, let's talk about it fora second right.
The more you try and force it,the more exhausted and the more
tired you find yourself, and sowhat I did was, instead of
asking myself, how can I manageall of this?
Any how question is usually aquestion to ask, right.
(10:46):
So what I found was that,instead of asking myself, man,
how can I manage all of this?
I started asking what is Godactually calling me to focus on,
and I began to let go of thethings that he never assigned to
me.
When you start to do that, whenyou start to actually switch
(11:08):
and flip the script and say God,can you show me what I am
actually meant to be focusing on, then you will find that things
actually begin to change foryou, and so I would encourage
you to ask yourself where inyour life are you trying to
force peace instead of receivingit through alignment?
God's plan force peace insteadof receiving it through
(11:31):
alignment, god's plan.
Where are you trying to forceit?
And maybe that is the area thatyou need to bring back into
alignment with God's plans foryour life.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Yeah, absolutely, that's super good.
So what would you tell somebodywho did feel like they were out
overwhelmed and books,basically right, and you're
asking the lord like, whatshould I let go of?
What do you have?
What would advice would youtell them to how to get back on
track, how to start letting somethings go?
What does that look like?
(12:00):
And what did it look like foryou?
Speaker 2 (12:02):
it's going to be uncomfortable.
That is the first thing, right.
But at the end of the day, youknow as moms, as wives, as
entrepreneurs, as whatever it isthat you're putting your hands
to right.
We have so much vying for ourattention and, at the end of the
day, you can only do so much ina 24-hour period, and so I
(12:25):
would say the thing that I didthat helped me the most was I
found myself making a list ofeverything that I was doing.
Every day just looks completelydifferent.
So don't worry about doing awhole week, Just do one day.
Write down all of the thingsthat you do just for an exercise
.
Write down everything that youdo in one day just to see what
(12:49):
you are actually spending yourtime on, and it will become very
easy for you to see.
Oh my gosh, I don't need to beon social media for four hours
just scrolling for the sake ofscrolling.
Like you know, even now, I findmyself in a position where I am
busy.
I have a lot vying for myattention, so, even something
(13:10):
that I am currently doing, Ihave to prioritize the things
that are the most important.
What are the things that areactually going to affect where
God is taking me as anindividual, and so it's not
individualism in the sense,because as a family we are
moving towards the same mission.
(13:32):
But God knows that I have arole to play in that, and so I
know my role.
And if you don't know your role, then spend some time with God
and get it clear, because thenyou're going to know right.
You can't move anywhere, andquite often that is actually why
we're in a state of chaos,because we don't have clarity in
where we're heading, and that'swhy we'll take on more and take
(13:53):
on more.
But if you get clarity on whereyou are heading, then you will
very clearly be able to be likethis is not for me.
I can say no to this.
I've got comfortable saying no.
That's the biggest thing for me.
I've got comfortable saying no.
So it's a co laborship with God.
Listen to what it is that he'sasking you to get rid of.
(14:14):
Don't run away from beinguncomfortable and get
comfortable being uncomfortableand get comfortable saying no.
That would be my advice.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
I love it.
Yes, and those are.
That's a great advice and thoseare definitely skills that we
have to learn and you're notgoing to get good at it until
you just start doing it.
It's a muscle.
Just say it.
Say no and be uncomfortable,because everyone's going to like
you saying no, especially ifyou've said yes a lot.
So everyone will have torelearn your boundaries.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Right, and I think that comes back to the clarity
piece too.
Right, because if you don'tknow where you're going, then
you can't say no confidently.
But if you know where you'regoing and you know what God is
doing in your life and throughyour life, regardless of if you
have kiddos or you're married,it doesn't matter what situation
you're in If you have clarityon where God is heading, like
taking you and leading you, thenwhat happens is it actually
(15:11):
becomes quite easy for you tosay no to anything that doesn't
align with that.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
Absolutely.
That's great.
That's really wonderful advice.
Yeah, Overwhelmed right whatwe're talking about it really
feels like a regular part of somany women's lives.
Um, you talk to somebody andit's like a badge of armor, oh
yeah, a badge of honor.
Like how busy, I don't know, Ican't handle all these kids.
Like it should not be a brag,but it is right.
(15:38):
So what do you?
But do you when you say it'sactually a strategy of the enemy
?
Why?
do you think that the enemy usesthe overwhelm as a weapon, and
how can we break free from that?
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Yeah.
So if you've been feelingoverwhelmed, exhausted, unsure
about your calling, it'sactually not by accident.
That's what I tell people allthe time.
It is not by accident, believeit or not.
The enemy actually doesn't haveto destroy you, he just has to
distract you.
Doesn't have to destroy you, hejust has to distract you.
(16:10):
I know it says in the Word ofGod that he is out to steal, to
kill and destroy, and he doesthat.
But part of how he destroys isby distracting you.
And so if he can keep you tired, if he can keep you discouraged
, if he can keep you doubtingyourself, then you're never
going to fully step into theauthority that God has already
given you and that is exactlywhat he wants.
(16:30):
So I referenced this justbefore, but actually John 10, 10
, the thief does not come exceptto steal and to kill and to
destroy.
I've come that.
But Jesus says that I have come, that you may have life and
that you may have it moreabundantly.
And I would say to that Godnever intended for you to live
in a state of constantexhaustion, anxiety, striving.
(16:54):
You were actually created tooperate from peace, not chaos,
and the enemy wants to overwhelmyou, because an exhausted woman
is a silent woman.
Exhausted woman is a silentwoman.
And a silent woman is a womanwho does not declare, does not
step up, won't take dominion.
(17:15):
And that's the reality of thesituation.
And I mean I even think when Iwas writing my first like when I
first started writing the bookthe Voice of a Queen I found it
tough.
I'm not going to lie.
I have two little ones thatwere vying for my attention.
They needed my attention allthe time and I'm trying to do
(17:38):
all of the things around thehouse and be a good wife and
make sure the meals are done,the kitchen's clean and the
washing's done and all of thethings.
And I actually started to feelso drained, started to feel so
drained, but I actually startedto feel so drained that I
started to question if I hadeven heard God right about my
calling.
I thought that, you know, maybeI was pushing too hard and
(18:01):
maybe I was trying to do it inmy own strength.
Oh, my goodness, don't even getme started on that.
Maybe I wasn't even supposed tostep out.
But that wasn't God, like thatwas actually the enemy.
That was, he was trying to keepme small, he was trying to get
me overwhelmed.
You know, at the end of it all,overwhelm is real, but you
(18:22):
don't have to accept it.
And so, if you're feelingoverwhelmed, I would suggest and
this is something that I havehad to do stop and ask yourself
is this an attack to my silence?
Is this also an attack on myvoice?
Is this an attack to keep mefrom speaking and using my voice
(18:43):
that I've been given?
And so what's an area where theenemy has convinced you to stay
silent in your life, like wherehave you been playing small
because exhaustion has made youquestion your calling?
That's what I would say, andthe reality of that is that if
the enemy is fighting you hardin this season, it's because he
(19:05):
sees the impact that your voiceand your life, your business and
your faith has.
And so I would say that, ifyou're feeling overwhelmed,
that's not the time to shrinkback.
It's actually the time to pressin and press forward.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Yeah, that's really encouraging.
I love that so much.
So you were talking about how,like when you started writing
your book, you were feeling thatway.
So how did you get out of thatfunk?
Like what did you do?
Speaker 2 (19:31):
I had to pull myself out of it because I realized I
called it for what it was.
Because the thing is, if yousee a vision clearly, like if
god gives you a vision and youcan see it clearly, there's a
reason for that and that meansthat it's on God's heart for you
(19:53):
.
If you can't see a visionclearly that God has given you,
there's probably a good reasonfor that.
Maybe it's not actually on hisheart for you.
So the opposite can be true aswell.
Right, but if God gives you avision and you can see it
clearly, that means it is onGod's heart for you.
And God knows the end from thebeginning.
(20:14):
He knows the end from thebeginning.
He created the end from thebeginning.
He wrote your story, and sobecause of that your story, and
so because of that, he will showyou visions of things that he
has on his heart for you, thingsto come, and it's up to us to
either remember that vision orsuccumb to the attacks that are
(20:35):
happening.
But the choice is ultimately upto us.
What we do with that is totallyup to us.
Yes, part of that is obedience,but it's also decision as well.
It's a decision that we havebeen given to make.
We can either stay in thisplace of stuck right and so many
women use the word stuck I'mstuck, I feel stuck, but the
(20:57):
reality of that is, if you aresomebody that is feeling stuck,
I would say what language areyou using?
What are you allowing to comeout of your mouth?
What's the words that you arespeaking over your situations?
And are you actually clingingon to the vision that God has
shown you?
Or maybe it wasn't a vision,maybe it was a word that he gave
(21:19):
you, maybe it was a promisethat he gave you and said this
is what I have for you.
Are you hanging on to that, orare you letting your
circumstances dominate yourather than you take dominion
over it?
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Amen, that's super good.
Yeah, I've often talked alittle bit about obedience and
like whenever I get really stuckor if I'm talking to a client
that's really stuck and it'slike sometimes it's obedience
for obedience sake.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Absolutely.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
You do it, you do it you do it Right.
He told you to and almost forno other reason, because
obviously, and then when youpush through it and you get
through that problem, you feelstuck.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
There will be light on the other side of that Right
and you'll find another.
You know hill to climb over butkeep coming, All right.
But to climb over, but keepcoming, all right.
But they get yes to continuethrough.
Absolutely have all of thatthat you saw in the past where
he got you through it.
Thanks yeah yeah, that's soawesome.
All right, so tell us aboutyour book, okay, yeah, it should
(22:15):
be coming out soon, so we'revery excited.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Tell us all about it well, oh, my goodness, this,
this, just I've got to explainsomething to you.
I didn't just wake up one dayand be like I'm going to write a
book today.
No, actually, quite theopposite.
I've got enough to look.
You know, I've got enough to doright now.
You know, my husband is actuallyan author, as I mentioned
(22:39):
earlier, he has written threebooks, not just one.
He's written three books, andBorn to Rule is definitely the
best by far, and I feel likethat.
You know, I'm not just sayingthat because I'm his wife.
In fact, I feel like, as hiswife, I have to be completely
honest with him, and if he wrotea book that sucked, I would
(23:00):
feel obligation, that I would.
Well, I need to tell him, babe,I think you missed it there.
So, no, but like, born to Ruleis actually one of the best
books that I've actually read,and I don't say that lightly.
I'm a very big reader, and sowhen it came time for me to
let's just say hear God say thewords, chantal, it's time to
(23:23):
write a book.
Let's just say hear God say thewords, chantal, it's time to
write a book, I may have arguedwith God and I may have not been
obedient straight away.
I knew I needed to do it right,but I also didn't want to, and
I was being like a little child,kicking and screaming.
Well, I didn't win thatargument.
Let's just say that Sometimesit's just better to let God win,
guys.
Just letting you know.
(23:44):
Anyway, that's my, that's mypreface before I say this.
Right, but when it comes to thevoice of the queen, you know,
unleashing the power ofpurposeful words at the end of
it all.
For me, my heart for this bookand the reason why I even wrote
it is and I even get emotionalthinking about it because I have
(24:07):
just seen too many women livebeneath their calling, Not
because God did not equip them,but because their words never
aligned with what he had alreadydeclared over them.
Like I, have literally watchedwomen praying for breakthrough
while speaking defeat.
I've watched women sit thereand wait for doors to open while
(24:32):
their silence is actually thething that's keeping those doors
shut.
I've watched women believe inGod's promises while cursing
their own future with their ownwords.
And I just hit breaking point.
In the last year or so I havehit breaking point because I
refuse to watch another womanhold herself back because she
(24:55):
doesn't realize the power of hervoice.
And really the voice of a queenis a wake-up call.
That's what it is.
It's a wake-up call.
It's a call to take dominionover your life, your
circumstances and your future byharnessing the weapon that your
words are.
And believe me when I tell youI know what it's like to believe
(25:17):
it for breakthrough whilebattling fear.
It's something that I havewalked many, many times.
But the biggest one that I thinkof is when my son Zion, when he
was young and he was faced withall of the labels thrown at him
learning delays.
There were so many things thatwere thrown at him, but you know
(25:38):
he had oral sensory delays andthat affected his eating, it
affected his speaking, itaffected it all and everything
was being thrown at him and Iremember I was praying with
faith, but what I was doing wasI was wrestling with fear
because I wasn't seeing anychange and I felt the weight of
(26:00):
waiting for the change, theexhaustion I felt, the
exhaustion of wondering if mywords actually truly carried
power.
But once everything started toshift, it was because I had
changed my words and as thingsstarted to shift, that is
actually when I stopped wavering.
I refused, like I hit a pointwhere I was like I refuse to let
(26:23):
doubt have the final say, Irefuse.
And I began to speak faith overhim.
And at that point I aligned mywords with God's word.
And it's the same with women.
I'm on a mission now to helpwomen break free from silence.
I'm on a mission to help womentake dominion and unleash the
(26:44):
power of their voices, becauseheaven, at the end of the day,
is already waiting to move onyour words.
So it's not just a message,this book.
It's actually a mandate, a verystrong mandate, right With that
kind of title the voice of aqueen.
It's actually a mandate becausethe moment a woman actually
takes hold of her voice, shetakes hold of her destiny.
(27:06):
And if your life is not whereyou want it to be.
Start by listening to the wordsthat you've been speaking,
because I mentioned it beforebut heaven's already spoken over
you.
But the reason why yourbreakthrough is not manifesting
is it's not going to manifestuntil you do so.
It's time to stop shrinkingback, women.
It's time to stop doubting,it's time to stop waiting and
(27:28):
it's time to actually start tospeak.
And I would get you to askyourself this today If you truly
believed that your voicecarried kingdom authority, how
would you speak differentlytoday?
How would you speak differentlytoday?
How would you speak differentlytoday?
Because when your words arealigned with God's word, that's
(27:49):
when everything begins to change.
So, anyway, this book is myheart and soul.
I have poured into it, soyou've got to get your hands on
it and make sure you get it foranother woman that you know that
needs it as well.
Every woman needs to read this,especially as a believer,
especially as a Christian woman,especially as a mom.

So, chantel, we're super happyto have you here.
So this is super great.
Why don't you tell everybodywhat it is that you do
(01:56):
specifically and why in theworld do you do it?
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Well, it's very interesting that you ask that
question First of all.
Oh my goodness me, elise.
Thank you so much for having me.
It is so great to be here withyou.
I have been looking forward toour time and you know, it's
interesting that you start withthat question because it always
kind of tickles me a little bitwhen I hear that question.
(02:20):
Right, it's just like Chantal,who are you?
And it's like always whenpeople ask I don't know if
you've noticed this, but it'sjust like whenever people ask
you, tell me about yourself orwho are you.
Isn't it funny how weautomatically go to talk about
all of the things that we do,and I have been so challenged
(02:41):
lately to really begin to focuson, rather than saying all of
the things we do, actually talkabout who I am as far as like,
what makes me me like, what arethe things that I am, and so I
will tell you I absolutely, 100%, always say that before I say
(03:02):
anything else first and foremost, I am a daughter of the king of
kings.
Before I got that, before I sayanything else, first and
foremost, I am a daughter of theKing of Kings.
Before I got married, before Ihad all my lovely kiddos, and I
make it sound like there's somany of them.
There's actually only two, butthat's okay.
Before that, I was a daughter.
I still am a daughter.
I'm a daughter of the King ofKings, which makes me royalty,
which makes me co-heirs to thethrone with Christ, and so,
(03:27):
first and foremost, I alwayslove to say that I am a daughter
, because I am a daughter, I'm adaughter of my parents, but I'm
also a daughter of the King ofKings and Lord of Lords.
I am also, as you mentioned, awife to my incredible husband,
christian.
We've been married for nineyears, almost.
Oh, my goodness, wow, it hasbeen a ride.
My husband is from Florida,born and raised, he is Puerto
(03:52):
Rican hence the last name,santiago, and not the Hispanic
or American accent at all and Iam originally from Australia.
So two crazy kids fell in love,got married and I ended up
moving to the other side of theworld.
And I'm also a mom to my twobeautiful children, zion and
Zara.
Zion is three and a half andZara is one and a half, and they
(04:15):
are just the joys of my lifeand just keep me busy.
I am also a co-founder of Bornto Rule Global, but more than
anything, born to Rule Global isreally just who we are.
It's who we are as a family but, more importantly, as a couple.
Christian initially wrote abook called Born to Rule,
reclaiming your God-givenbirthright to rule here on earth
(04:37):
.
And out of that I just went tohim and I just said, babe, I'm
so proud of you.
And he's like, I found my lifemessage.
And I said, well, that's great,but you've actually found both
of our life, in fact, found ourfamily's life message.
You found what our family isgoing to be known for.
And I will tell you these twolittle kiddos that we've got
(04:58):
that is exactly the life thatthey are already starting to
live.
So, anyway, that's a little bitabout me and, yeah, what I've
got going on.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
That's wonderful.
Okay, so I want to dive intothat a little bit more, about
your family.
Right, it sounds like you havea family mission, like what your
whole family is working towards.
So, like you said, your kidsare one and a half and three and
a half, correct?
Yes yes, how do you live thatout practically with little
people in your life?
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Right.
So I will tell you one thingyou know and this is something
that my husband and I have beenso blessed to be able to walk
other couples through it doesn'tmatter if they've been married
for 25 years we actually havehad helped people have been
married for a lot longer than usbut it doesn't matter if people
are engaged, wanting to getmarried or just about to get
married or just married andthey're just wanting some
(05:48):
direction.
You know, one of the thingsthat we always tell them is that
mission is critical for ahealthy marriage.
Mission is critical for ahealthy marriage, and you know I
will tell you this.
And you know I will tell youthis.
We came together for a mission,on a mission, for a mission,
and the reason why we know thisto be so important when it comes
(06:12):
to the kingdom of God is thatwhen we tell people that we
didn't like, we didn't cometogether for love, we didn't
come together for happiness.
People are almost like shocked,like what did you just say?
But the reason why we say thisis because you look at love.
If you look at happiness,beautiful feelings, but they're
(06:32):
feelings nonetheless, and sowhen the chips are down, when
things are tough, the love isnot always there, and most
certainly not happiness.
Let me tell you.
There have been a few timeswhere I've wanted to wring my
husband's neck.
I'm going to be honest with youguys today, is that okay?
But I will tell you that wewill always get through it, and
(06:54):
the reason why we will alwaysget through it, regardless of
the feelings that may befleeting, is that mission will
sustain you when love andhappiness disappear, mission
will always sustain you,practically.
What does that look like nowthat we have a family?
Well, one of the things that welove to do with our kids is we
just created a list of dailymantras or values you might want
(07:16):
to call them values.
We have daily mantras, and wehave one in my son's room, one
in my daughter's room, and so weread these to the kids and we
make it lots of fun, but it'sinstilling in them from a very
young age that this is who weare, this is how we operate, and
so it's just one thing that weget to do with these kids and
(07:37):
instill in them the values thatwe hold as a family and who we
represent when you you starttalking about god that's so
great.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Yeah, I think that's very practical especially when
they're so little right like not, it's hard to do a lot with one
and a half and three and a halflisten it's got to be fun it's
got to be engaging, it's got tobe a good time smiling yes, yes,
absolutely it's, but that'svery practical, like we just
read, we talk about it, it is apart of our life, the way that
the bible tells us like read ouryou know, recite scripture when
(08:10):
you lay down, when you'rewalking, when you're you know,
up all those things, and so justdoing that with your life
verses or with your life mission, like that's super great, very
practical.
Yeah, so this is, um, obviouslycalled the peaceful mompreneur,
right, right?
So let's talk a little bitabout peace.
Yeah, so many people definepeace as simply the absence of
stress or chaos.
(08:30):
So what is your approach ontrue peace and can you explain
what it really looks like?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Yeah, absolutely.
So.
Here's the thing with truepeace, right.
So we often think that you know, when we think about peace, we
often think of peace as theabsence of noise, hey, you know,
the absence of conflict orbusyness, but really, at the end
of the day, true peace isactually divine order.
(08:55):
So, as a mom, that means truepeace is actually when your home
, when your business and whenyour spirit are actually aligned
with God's word, notoverwhelmed by the weight of the
world.
And if you feel yourselfconstantly catching up and
cleaning up and barely keepingup, that's not peace.
(09:17):
It's not.
That's actually called survival, survival 101 at its best right
.
But here's the thing God nevercalled us just to survive.
He called you to walk indominion.
That was his very firstinstruction when he created man
was to walk in dominion.
And I even think of thescripture in um, second
(09:39):
thessalonians, chapter three,where it says now may the Lord
of peace himself give you peacealways, in every way.
The Lord be with you all.
And so that just tells mereally that peace isn't found in
a perfectly planned schedule.
It's actually found in yourability to surrender control to
(10:02):
God and align your actions withhis wisdom.
You know, I think of myself, foran example.
Like I used to think that peacemeant getting everything under
control.
I did, I really did, but thatwas until I realized that peace
is actually about surrenderingthe control to God, and the more
(10:24):
I tried to force peace, themore exhausted I became.
Really, let's talk about it fora second right.
The more you try and force it,the more exhausted and the more
tired you find yourself, and sowhat I did was, instead of
asking myself, how can I manageall of this?
Any how question is usually aquestion to ask, right.
(10:46):
So what I found was that,instead of asking myself, man,
how can I manage all of this?
I started asking what is Godactually calling me to focus on,
and I began to let go of thethings that he never assigned to
me.
When you start to do that, whenyou start to actually switch
(11:08):
and flip the script and say God,can you show me what I am
actually meant to be focusing on, then you will find that things
actually begin to change foryou, and so I would encourage
you to ask yourself where inyour life are you trying to
force peace instead of receivingit through alignment?
God's plan force peace insteadof receiving it through
(11:31):
alignment, god's plan.
Where are you trying to forceit?
And maybe that is the area thatyou need to bring back into
alignment with God's plans foryour life.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Yeah, absolutely, that's super good.
So what would you tell somebodywho did feel like they were out
overwhelmed and books,basically right, and you're
asking the lord like, whatshould I let go of?
What do you have?
What would advice would youtell them to how to get back on
track, how to start letting somethings go?
What does that look like?
(12:00):
And what did it look like foryou?
Speaker 2 (12:02):
it's going to be uncomfortable.
That is the first thing, right.
But at the end of the day, youknow as moms, as wives, as
entrepreneurs, as whatever it isthat you're putting your hands
to right.
We have so much vying for ourattention and, at the end of the
day, you can only do so much ina 24-hour period, and so I
(12:25):
would say the thing that I didthat helped me the most was I
found myself making a list ofeverything that I was doing.
Every day just looks completelydifferent.
So don't worry about doing awhole week, Just do one day.
Write down all of the thingsthat you do just for an exercise
.
Write down everything that youdo in one day just to see what
(12:49):
you are actually spending yourtime on, and it will become very
easy for you to see.
Oh my gosh, I don't need to beon social media for four hours
just scrolling for the sake ofscrolling.
Like you know, even now, I findmyself in a position where I am
busy.
I have a lot vying for myattention, so, even something
(13:10):
that I am currently doing, Ihave to prioritize the things
that are the most important.
What are the things that areactually going to affect where
God is taking me as anindividual, and so it's not
individualism in the sense,because as a family we are
moving towards the same mission.
(13:32):
But God knows that I have arole to play in that, and so I
know my role.
And if you don't know your role, then spend some time with God
and get it clear, because thenyou're going to know right.
You can't move anywhere, andquite often that is actually why
we're in a state of chaos,because we don't have clarity in
where we're heading, and that'swhy we'll take on more and take
(13:53):
on more.
But if you get clarity on whereyou are heading, then you will
very clearly be able to be likethis is not for me.
I can say no to this.
I've got comfortable saying no.
That's the biggest thing for me.
I've got comfortable saying no.
So it's a co laborship with God.
Listen to what it is that he'sasking you to get rid of.
(14:14):
Don't run away from beinguncomfortable and get
comfortable being uncomfortableand get comfortable saying no.
That would be my advice.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
I love it.
Yes, and those are.
That's a great advice and thoseare definitely skills that we
have to learn and you're notgoing to get good at it until
you just start doing it.
It's a muscle.
Just say it.
Say no and be uncomfortable,because everyone's going to like
you saying no, especially ifyou've said yes a lot.
So everyone will have torelearn your boundaries.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Right, and I think that comes back to the clarity
piece too.
Right, because if you don'tknow where you're going, then
you can't say no confidently.
But if you know where you'regoing and you know what God is
doing in your life and throughyour life, regardless of if you
have kiddos or you're married,it doesn't matter what situation
you're in If you have clarityon where God is heading, like
taking you and leading you, thenwhat happens is it actually
(15:11):
becomes quite easy for you tosay no to anything that doesn't
align with that.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
Absolutely.
That's great.
That's really wonderful advice.
Yeah, Overwhelmed right whatwe're talking about it really
feels like a regular part of somany women's lives.
Um, you talk to somebody andit's like a badge of armor, oh
yeah, a badge of honor.
Like how busy, I don't know, Ican't handle all these kids.
Like it should not be a brag,but it is right.
(15:38):
So what do you?
But do you when you say it'sactually a strategy of the enemy
?
Why?
do you think that the enemy usesthe overwhelm as a weapon, and
how can we break free from that?
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Yeah.
So if you've been feelingoverwhelmed, exhausted, unsure
about your calling, it'sactually not by accident.
That's what I tell people allthe time.
It is not by accident, believeit or not.
The enemy actually doesn't haveto destroy you, he just has to
distract you.
Doesn't have to destroy you, hejust has to distract you.
(16:10):
I know it says in the Word ofGod that he is out to steal, to
kill and destroy, and he doesthat.
But part of how he destroys isby distracting you.
And so if he can keep you tired, if he can keep you discouraged
, if he can keep you doubtingyourself, then you're never
going to fully step into theauthority that God has already
given you and that is exactlywhat he wants.
(16:30):
So I referenced this justbefore, but actually John 10, 10
, the thief does not come exceptto steal and to kill and to
destroy.
I've come that.
But Jesus says that I have come, that you may have life and
that you may have it moreabundantly.
And I would say to that Godnever intended for you to live
in a state of constantexhaustion, anxiety, striving.
(16:54):
You were actually created tooperate from peace, not chaos,
and the enemy wants to overwhelmyou, because an exhausted woman
is a silent woman.
Exhausted woman is a silentwoman.
And a silent woman is a womanwho does not declare, does not
step up, won't take dominion.
(17:15):
And that's the reality of thesituation.
And I mean I even think when Iwas writing my first like when I
first started writing the bookthe Voice of a Queen I found it
tough.
I'm not going to lie.
I have two little ones thatwere vying for my attention.
They needed my attention allthe time and I'm trying to do
(17:38):
all of the things around thehouse and be a good wife and
make sure the meals are done,the kitchen's clean and the
washing's done and all of thethings.
And I actually started to feelso drained, started to feel so
drained, but I actually startedto feel so drained that I
started to question if I hadeven heard God right about my
calling.
I thought that, you know, maybeI was pushing too hard and
(18:01):
maybe I was trying to do it inmy own strength.
Oh, my goodness, don't even getme started on that.
Maybe I wasn't even supposed tostep out.
But that wasn't God, like thatwas actually the enemy.
That was, he was trying to keepme small, he was trying to get
me overwhelmed.
You know, at the end of it all,overwhelm is real, but you
(18:22):
don't have to accept it.
And so, if you're feelingoverwhelmed, I would suggest and
this is something that I havehad to do stop and ask yourself
is this an attack to my silence?
Is this also an attack on myvoice?
Is this an attack to keep mefrom speaking and using my voice
(18:43):
that I've been given?
And so what's an area where theenemy has convinced you to stay
silent in your life, like wherehave you been playing small
because exhaustion has made youquestion your calling?
That's what I would say, andthe reality of that is that if
the enemy is fighting you hardin this season, it's because he
(19:05):
sees the impact that your voiceand your life, your business and
your faith has.
And so I would say that, ifyou're feeling overwhelmed,
that's not the time to shrinkback.
It's actually the time to pressin and press forward.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Yeah, that's really encouraging.
I love that so much.
So you were talking about how,like when you started writing
your book, you were feeling thatway.
So how did you get out of thatfunk?
Like what did you do?
Speaker 2 (19:31):
I had to pull myself out of it because I realized I
called it for what it was.
Because the thing is, if yousee a vision clearly, like if
god gives you a vision and youcan see it clearly, there's a
reason for that and that meansthat it's on God's heart for you
(19:53):
.
If you can't see a visionclearly that God has given you,
there's probably a good reasonfor that.
Maybe it's not actually on hisheart for you.
So the opposite can be true aswell.
Right, but if God gives you avision and you can see it
clearly, that means it is onGod's heart for you.
And God knows the end from thebeginning.
(20:14):
He knows the end from thebeginning.
He created the end from thebeginning.
He wrote your story, and sobecause of that your story, and
so because of that, he will showyou visions of things that he
has on his heart for you, thingsto come, and it's up to us to
either remember that vision orsuccumb to the attacks that are
(20:35):
happening.
But the choice is ultimately upto us.
What we do with that is totallyup to us.
Yes, part of that is obedience,but it's also decision as well.
It's a decision that we havebeen given to make.
We can either stay in thisplace of stuck right and so many
women use the word stuck I'mstuck, I feel stuck, but the
(20:57):
reality of that is, if you aresomebody that is feeling stuck,
I would say what language areyou using?
What are you allowing to comeout of your mouth?
What's the words that you arespeaking over your situations?
And are you actually clingingon to the vision that God has
shown you?
Or maybe it wasn't a vision,maybe it was a word that he gave
(21:19):
you, maybe it was a promisethat he gave you and said this
is what I have for you.
Are you hanging on to that, orare you letting your
circumstances dominate yourather than you take dominion
over it?
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Amen, that's super good.
Yeah, I've often talked alittle bit about obedience and
like whenever I get really stuckor if I'm talking to a client
that's really stuck and it'slike sometimes it's obedience
for obedience sake.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Absolutely.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
You do it, you do it you do it Right.
He told you to and almost forno other reason, because
obviously, and then when youpush through it and you get
through that problem, you feelstuck.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
There will be light on the other side of that Right
and you'll find another.
You know hill to climb over butkeep coming, All right.
But to climb over, but keepcoming, all right.
But they get yes to continuethrough.
Absolutely have all of thatthat you saw in the past where
he got you through it.
Thanks yeah yeah, that's soawesome.
All right, so tell us aboutyour book, okay, yeah, it should
(22:15):
be coming out soon, so we'revery excited.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Tell us all about it well, oh, my goodness, this,
this, just I've got to explainsomething to you.
I didn't just wake up one dayand be like I'm going to write a
book today.
No, actually, quite theopposite.
I've got enough to look.
You know, I've got enough to doright now.
You know, my husband is actuallyan author, as I mentioned
(22:39):
earlier, he has written threebooks, not just one.
He's written three books, andBorn to Rule is definitely the
best by far, and I feel likethat.
You know, I'm not just sayingthat because I'm his wife.
In fact, I feel like, as hiswife, I have to be completely
honest with him, and if he wrotea book that sucked, I would
(23:00):
feel obligation, that I would.
Well, I need to tell him, babe,I think you missed it there.
So, no, but like, born to Ruleis actually one of the best
books that I've actually read,and I don't say that lightly.
I'm a very big reader, and sowhen it came time for me to
let's just say hear God say thewords, chantal, it's time to
(23:23):
write a book.
Let's just say hear God say thewords, chantal, it's time to
write a book, I may have arguedwith God and I may have not been
obedient straight away.
I knew I needed to do it right,but I also didn't want to, and
I was being like a little child,kicking and screaming.
Well, I didn't win thatargument.
Let's just say that Sometimesit's just better to let God win,
guys.
Just letting you know.
(23:44):
Anyway, that's my, that's mypreface before I say this.
Right, but when it comes to thevoice of the queen, you know,
unleashing the power ofpurposeful words at the end of
it all.
For me, my heart for this bookand the reason why I even wrote
it is and I even get emotionalthinking about it because I have
(24:07):
just seen too many women livebeneath their calling, Not
because God did not equip them,but because their words never
aligned with what he had alreadydeclared over them.
Like I, have literally watchedwomen praying for breakthrough
while speaking defeat.
I've watched women sit thereand wait for doors to open while
(24:32):
their silence is actually thething that's keeping those doors
shut.
I've watched women believe inGod's promises while cursing
their own future with their ownwords.
And I just hit breaking point.
In the last year or so I havehit breaking point because I
refuse to watch another womanhold herself back because she
(24:55):
doesn't realize the power of hervoice.
And really the voice of a queenis a wake-up call.
That's what it is.
It's a wake-up call.
It's a call to take dominionover your life, your
circumstances and your future byharnessing the weapon that your
words are.
And believe me when I tell youI know what it's like to believe
(25:17):
it for breakthrough whilebattling fear.
It's something that I havewalked many, many times.
But the biggest one that I thinkof is when my son Zion, when he
was young and he was faced withall of the labels thrown at him
learning delays.
There were so many things thatwere thrown at him, but you know
(25:38):
he had oral sensory delays andthat affected his eating, it
affected his speaking, itaffected it all and everything
was being thrown at him and Iremember I was praying with
faith, but what I was doing wasI was wrestling with fear
because I wasn't seeing anychange and I felt the weight of
(26:00):
waiting for the change, theexhaustion I felt, the
exhaustion of wondering if mywords actually truly carried
power.
But once everything started toshift, it was because I had
changed my words and as thingsstarted to shift, that is
actually when I stopped wavering.
I refused, like I hit a pointwhere I was like I refuse to let
(26:23):
doubt have the final say, Irefuse.
And I began to speak faith overhim.
And at that point I aligned mywords with God's word.
And it's the same with women.
I'm on a mission now to helpwomen break free from silence.
I'm on a mission to help womentake dominion and unleash the
(26:44):
power of their voices, becauseheaven, at the end of the day,
is already waiting to move onyour words.
So it's not just a message,this book.
It's actually a mandate, a verystrong mandate, right With that
kind of title the voice of aqueen.
It's actually a mandate becausethe moment a woman actually
takes hold of her voice, shetakes hold of her destiny.
(27:06):
And if your life is not whereyou want it to be.
Start by listening to the wordsthat you've been speaking,
because I mentioned it beforebut heaven's already spoken over
you.
But the reason why yourbreakthrough is not manifesting
is it's not going to manifestuntil you do so.
It's time to stop shrinkingback, women.
It's time to stop doubting,it's time to stop waiting and
(27:28):
it's time to actually start tospeak.
And I would get you to askyourself this today If you truly
believed that your voicecarried kingdom authority, how
would you speak differentlytoday?
How would you speak differentlytoday?
How would you speak differentlytoday?
Because when your words arealigned with God's word, that's
(27:49):
when everything begins to change.
So, anyway, this book is myheart and soul.
I have poured into it, soyou've got to get your hands on
it and make sure you get it foranother woman that you know that
needs it as well.
Every woman needs to read this,especially as a believer,
especially as a Christian woman,especially as a mom.
