What does it really look like to build a life and business rooted in purpose, faith, and service?

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Nicole Bond—a Spokane Valley realtor, wife, mother, and passionate community-builder—who shares her journey from a life that looked “fine” on the outside to one filled with deep fulfillment, divine obedience, and intentional connection.

Nicole opens up about what it meant to walk away from surface-level friendships, trust God in a season of financial uncertainty, and build a real estate business that’s less about sales and more about serving people well. From starting Monday Night Dinners for anyone who needed a place to feel seen, to handing out free coffee on Christmas Eve with nothing in the bank—Nicole’s story is a reminder that faith-fueled action always makes a difference.

If you’ve ever felt the nudge that life could be more meaningful, this conversation will inspire you to take the next brave step.

🎧 In this episode, we talk about:

  • Navigating identity after broken relationships and betrayal
  • How faith carried Nicole and her husband through financial drought
  • Building community without waiting for permission
  • What it means to be a safe space for others
  • Why real impact starts with real love
