Your business isn't stuck because your strategy is wrong. It's stuck because you haven't grown into the person it needs you to lead it. I know that's not what you wanted to hear. But every business that's growing is demanding more from you: more courage, more capacity, more decisiveness. And most of us never stop to ask the question: who am I becoming through this? In this episode, I unpack why God rarely equips us before He calls us. He equips us in the process. The obstacles you're facing right now aren't just in your way; they're doing something FOR you. I share what it looks like to recognize the season you're actually in (harvest, pruning, dying, or planting) and why trying to force a harvest season during a pruning season will wreck you every time. God isn't just building your business. He's building you. If you've been asking God for a bigger vision, this episode might be Him asking you a different question first: who do you need to become to carry it? Ready to grow into the leader your calling requires? Let's do it together inside Supernatural CEO: www.supernaturalceo.com TIMESTAMPS: 00:00:01 - Welcome to Wisdom's Table Introduction to the podcast and its purpose. 00:00:27 - Rachel's Background Rachel shares her journey as a faith and business coach and her experience in entrepreneurship. 00:01:20 - The Importance of Becoming Discussion on personal growth and the question of who you need to become for your business. 00:02:24 - God Qualifies the Called Exploration of the process of becoming qualified through challenges and learning. 00:03:38 - Skill Gaps in Entrepreneurship Statistics on common skill gaps among entrepreneurs and the need for personal development. 00:06:17 - Becoming Your Best Self The focus on improving as an individual rather than trying to master every skill. 00:08:04 - Obstacles as Opportunities Understanding how challenges can serve to develop you. 00:09:30 - Identifying Your Season The importance of recognizing the current season of your business. 00:12:20 - Four Business Seasons Overview of the four key seasons businesses go through: harvest, pruning, dying, and planting. 00:15:00 - Navigating Seasons Wisely The consequences of staying too long in a particular season. 00:18:02 - Reflection and Growth Encouragement to take inventory of personal growth and celebrate progress. 00:20:29 - The Role of a Coach The value of having a coach to help navigate business seasons and personal development.
Today we are welcoming the presence of God and pressing in to what He has already provided for us. Pray with me: -To sense God's presence and be filled with Him -To remember who we are in Christ -That our worth is not tied to what we do -To release our fears -And so much more
Have you ever felt confused about why you need to pray if God has already said He would do it? In this episode, I break down three types of prayer: petition, declaration, and decreeing. Petition is asking God for what you need. Declaration is speaking His truth over your situation. And decreeing isn't demanding what you want; it's exercising the authority God's already given you to speak His will out loud. I get vulnerable about a moment I really struggled to believe God would help me, even though I had zero doubt He could help everyone else. And I talk about what it means to be a watchman on the wall of your own life, contending for the promises God already made you. Your silence might be costing you more than your unbelief ever could. As we head into the Hebrew new year, this is your invitation to pick back up the prayers you let go of. Your mouth is a weapon. Let's use it. If you're a Christian business owner ready to grow in faith and contend for what God's called you to build, come check out Supernatural CEO: www.supernaturalceo.com TIMESTAMPS: 00:00:01 - Welcome to Wisdom's Table Introduction to the podcast and its purpose. 00:00:27 - The Power of Your Mouth in Prayer Exploring the significance of using your mouth in prayer and the types of prayer. 00:01:09 - Three Types of Prayer Introduction to petition, declaration, and decreeing prayers. 00:01:40 - Understanding the Hebrew Calendar Discussion on the Hebrew calendar and its relevance to spiritual practices. 00:03:15 - The Year of the Mouth and the Weapon Exploring the symbolism of the Hebrew year 5787 and its implications. 00:05:01 - Isaiah 62: The Call to Contend Highlighting the importance of persistent prayer and the role of watchmen. 00:07:17 - Types of Prayer: Petition Defining petition prayer and its significance in asking God for help. 00:10:06 - Types of Prayer: Declaration Explaining declaration prayer and its role in affirming God's truth. 00:12:23 - Types of Prayer: Decrees Clarifying the concept of decreeing and its proper use in prayer. 00:14:19 - Putting It All Together Summarizing the differences between petition, declaration, and decreeing prayers. 00:15:00 - Contending for Yourself Encouragement to stand watch over personal promises and assignments. 00:16:14 - Personal Testimony Sharing a personal story about learning to contend for oneself. 00:18:30 - Invitation to Supernatural CEO Promoting the coaching program and its focus on spiritual and practical support. 00:20:35 - Reflection Question Encouraging listeners to consider what they have stopped praying about. 00:22:00 - Closing Remarks Wrap-up of the episode and encouragement to engage with the content.
It's Monday, which means it's prayer day! This week we're suiting up in the full armor of God and drawing a hard line against the enemy, over our marriages, our children and grandchildren, our finances, our property, and our peace. I'll walk you through why picking a fight with the enemy stirs a response, and why that's never a reason for fear, just a reason to stay sober-minded and keep praying. Then we go straight into war: covering our businesses, our families, our employees, our minds, breaking soul ties and old trauma, silencing the lies, and standing fully covered in the blood of Jesus. This one might be worth a second listen. See you Thursday for a new episode of Wisdom's Table.
This one's for warriors, not the faint of heart. We're activating our victory in Christ and confronting the enemy's schemes head-on. I take you into my own story: growing up with torment and inner destruction that started in childhood, chasing answers in the paranormal because I didn't know yet where real power lived. Then I met the Holy Spirit, and everything shifted. Now I'm passionate about being a bloodline breaker, ending generational curses so my lineage honors the Lord instead of repeating what came before. God has a plan for your life...and so does the enemy. The question is which one you're agreeing with. I break down four tactics the enemy uses against you: intimidation, fear, deception, and stolen destiny. Each one shows up different, but all of them are designed to make you feel powerless. I'll show you how to spot them and how to reclaim your authority through the blood of Jesus. Here's the truth: you can't control the enemy, and you can't control other people. You can only control you. Your healing, your freedom, that's what ripples out to your family and your community. Next week we pray over all of it. This week, we fight. The enemy's time is up. TIMESTAMPS: 00:00:01 - Welcome to Wisdom's Table Introduction to the podcast and its purpose. 00:00:26 - Activating Victory in Christ Discussion on overcoming challenges and activating victory in Christ. 00:01:19 - Refusing to Break Exploration of resilience and standing firm against the enemy's plans. 00:01:50 - Personal Testimony Rachel shares her personal experiences with torment and the supernatural. 00:03:34 - Breaking Generational Curses The importance of being a bloodline breaker and the cost involved. 00:04:37 - The Enemy's Plans Introduction to the plans of the enemy and how to recognize them. 00:05:48 - Intimidation Understanding how intimidation is a tactic used by the enemy. 00:19:29 - Fear Discussion on fear as a natural response and how the enemy manipulates it. 00:21:13 - Deception The subtlety of deception and its impact on our lives. 00:22:28 - Stolen Destiny Exploration of destiny swapping and the importance of recognizing what we trade. 00:24:35 - Conclusion and Encouragement Encouragement to resist the enemy's plans and reaffirming our identity in Christ. 00:28:17 - Upcoming Prayer Episode Teaser for the next episode focused on prayer.

Launching my son to college wrecked me a little, and it clarified something too: we get stuck in our growth when we won't align with the season God actually has us in. In this episode, I am sharing three keys to owning yours: 1. See what God is doing. You're chasing your felt needs. He's after your core needs, and those two rarely look the same. Ask: what is God doing in this season, not just what do I want out of it. 2. Notice what it's depositing in you. Like the Sons of Issachar, we're called to discern the times. What's being sown now becomes your harvest later. 3. Maximize where you are. Life moves and changes as we live it. You have to have your finger on the pulse of what God is doing so you can make the most out of it. Let this episode encourage you, challenge you, and help you grow.

In this episode of Wisdom's Table, I'm tackling something I believe is both crucial and controversial: how we're reading and interpreting the Bible inside the business world. I've spent over 20 years in pastoral ministry, and I've built over 10 successful businesses, and that history gives me a responsibility I don't take lightly. I'm calling out what I see happening right now: the businessification of the Bible. There's a trend among Christian creators and business coaches to treat scripture like a success manual, a productivity hack, a growth strategy with a Bible verse attached. And I want to name it plainly. The Bible can absolutely speak into how we work and lead. But that was never its primary purpose. Scripture exists to reveal who God is, who we are, and how we're meant to live because of that truth. When we put business above that, we're not just misreading a text. We're stepping into dangerous territory. This episode will reveal whether you are doing as you read the Bible, and what you can do instead. Want to take your time with Jesus deeper?

Join in this powerful prayer specially crafted for the women in your life! This prayer is a continuation of a powerful episode we shared on Thursday. The enemy consistently works to put women down, and it is our job to make sure we are lifting them up. That includes lifting ourselves up at times, too. Send this prayer to a woman in your life that needs to hear it.
In this episode of Wisdom's Table, I dive deep into the unique and powerful identity of women of God, addressing the challenges and societal pressures that often seek to diminish our brilliance and calling. Titled "God's Favorite Girls," this episode is inspired by a conversation I had with a young woman who shared a shocking experience with a man who expressed admiration for her gifts while simultaneously wishing to suppress them. This encounter illuminated the enemy's plan to make women feel small and inadequate, a narrative that many of us have internalized. Throughout the episode, I reflect on my own experiences as a young woman navigating ambition and dreams in a world that often expects us to conform to a more traditional, domestic role. I emphasize that being a woman of God does not mean we have to fit a specific mold; rather, we are called to embrace our unique gifts and aspirations. I challenge the notion that women should shrink themselves to fit societal expectations, encouraging listeners to recognize their worth and the divine purpose behind their ambitions.

We've all found ourselves leaving a conversation and suddenly realizing the other person did not have any interest in us at all. I've thought at times, "What am I even doing here? This person just wants to hear themselves talk." You may be tanking your sales and not even knowing by having sub-par listening skills. In this episode of Wisdom's Table, I dive deep into what I believe to be the true X factor in sales: effective listening skills. Over my 20 years of entrepreneurial experience, I've noticed a significant gap in discussions around sales techniques—specifically, the importance of listening. While many focus on charisma, appearance, or how to handle objections, I argue that the ability to listen actively is what truly sets successful salespeople apart. I'm covering 4 keys to great listening skills that will not only help you build good relationships, but help you win the sale. TIMESTAMPS 00:00:01 - Welcome to Wisdom's Table Introduction to the podcast and its focus on growth in various aspects of life. 00:00:26 - The X Factor in Sales Introduction to the concept of listening skills as the key to successful sales. 00:00:57 - The Importance of Listening Discussion on the lack of emphasis on developing good listening skills in business. 00:01:39 - Personal Anecdote: A Missed Opportunity Sharing a story about a meeting where one party failed to ask questions, highlighting the importance of curiosity. 00:04:25 - Understanding Value Through Questions Exploring how asking questions can reveal the value someone brings to the table. 00:05:28 - Common Reasons for Poor Listening Identifying reasons why people may not listen well, such as nervousness or lack of awareness. 00:06:31 - Active Listening Skills Introduction to practical active listening skills to improve conversations. 00:07:43 - Body Language Matters The significance of body language in demonstrating engagement and openness. 00:10:12 - Reflecting Back What You Hear The importance of paraphrasing and clarifying to ensure mutual understanding. 00:12:28 - Asking Follow-Up Questions Encouraging the use of follow-up questions to keep conversations balanced and engaging. 00:15:27 - Avoiding Assumptions The necessity of not assuming what others are thinking and the importance of asking clarifying questions. 00:18:16 - Building Relationships Through Listening How active listening fosters relationships and enhances business interactions. 00:20:21 - Pro Tips for Effective Communication Advice on timing your speaking and editing your contributions in conversations. 00:22:37 - Conclusion and Call to Action Wrapping up the episode and inviting listeners to join the next session for prayer.
Every Monday, we take a moment to start the week in prayer. Today I am leading you through a prayer the covers the 5 secrets to lasting success I shared about in our last episode. Take a moment, quiet your heart, and jump right in.
In this episode of Wisdom's Table, I, Rachel Wortman, delve into a topic that is both timely and timeless: the five secrets to true and lasting success. As we navigate through a world that often equates success with the perfect strategy or relentless hard work, I want to challenge that notion. Many of us find ourselves chasing fleeting opportunities, hoping for that one big break, but I’ve discovered that those who achieve enduring success have a different foundation. Throughout this episode, I share five essential principles that are not just trendy tactics or productivity hacks, but rather, they are enduring truths that apply across various aspects of life, including ministry, business, and personal relationships.

Desire is a doorway to the heart of God when we steward it God's way. In this episode, I'm exploring desire, and what we should be doing with it. We will look at when desire becomes dangerous and problematic, but also when it leads to true delight. Pull up a chair to Wisdom's Table and let's dive in! TIMESTAMPS
This one is for you if you listened to this week's episode (#193) and felt something shift, or if you're still sitting with the question. If you're confused about your calling, frustrated that things aren't working the way you hoped, or quietly wondering whether God actually asked you to do this, this prayer is for you. We're bringing all of it to the Lord. The confusion, the disappointment, the skill gaps, the hollow feeling, and the fear that walking away might mean you failed. We're asking for confirmation where the calling is real and courage where it isn't. And we're trusting that even if we don't get the full picture today, we'll get the next step. As Psalm 119 reminds us, his word is a lamp to our feet. Not a floodlight for the whole road. Just enough light for the next step. That's what we're praying for today. If you haven't listened to this week's full episode yet, go back and check it out. And don't forget to download the free audit to help you get some clarity on where you actually are right now.

You know those moments where you hit a wall and you blurt out in exasperation, "I don't think I can do this. I'm not even sure God wants me to!" That question is more common than you think, and today we're going deep on it. I'm breaking down the difference between a skill gap and a calling gap, because those two things feel similar on the surface but they are not the same. One means you need to learn something. The other means you might need to have an honest conversation with God about your assignment. We also talk about why struggle is not automatically a sign that you're in the wrong place, why some people are genuinely not built for entrepreneurship (and why that is not a failure), and how to tell the difference between a season that's hard and a season that's hollow. I share some personal stories in this one, including a dinner conversation that stopped me in my tracks and a season of my own life where I had to lay something down that I really thought was from the Lord. My goal for you in this episode is clarity. By the time you finish listening, you should have a stronger sense of whether your frustration is hiding a skill problem or a calling problem. And to help you go even deeper on that, I put together a free audit for you. It walks you through the key areas of your business so you can pinpoint exactly where your gaps are and what to do about them.
