Signs It’s Time to Hire a Christian Life & Business Coach

1. Profits have become more important than purpose. The desire to make more money is not wrong. It is good to strive for a thriving business. A faith-based coach helps you navigate your priorities in order to keep purpose first.
2. You are tired of competing. Societal pressures lead us to fatigue and fear of doing what seems impossible. Coaching gives you the tools to learn how to silence the voices of inadequacy so you can run your race.
3. Not sure if you’re on the right path? With so much information at our fingertips, it can be hard to figure out what the next step is. With a trusted coach, you gain clarity on the ****next step God is specifically calling you to.
4. Bold ideas. But fear won’t let them out. So many platforms to choose from and with it so many opinions that can and will critique you. With Spirit-led guidance, you can focus on the strength the Holy Spirit gives you to share His love in your own unique way.
5. Clarity doesn’t always come easy—especially when there are a ton of decisions to make. There are seasons where the path is clear and others where it is not. The light shines on just one step at a time, day by day. A coach can help you dive into your quiet space to search out God’s direction and hear His voice.
6. It’s not that you don’t believe—you’re just confused. You can have so many passions that nothing seems to quite fit you perfectly. Christian business coaching can help you identify what you are most passionate about and effective in.
7. Spiritual gifts? You have no idea what gifts you have or how to use them. When you recognize your God-given gifts and talents, it becomes easier to recognize where you belong. God can use coaching to help you find the places and spaces where your gifts will be best utilized.
8. Some entrepreneurs find themselves constantly searching for the next way to make money. We have all seen the trendy ways to make money popping up across social media but trend hopping is far from stable. A business coach can help you be diligent in what you are called to do even when money is scarce.
9. You’ve done everything the business world told you to—yet you still feel like something’s missing. You thought that hitting those 3 and 5 year goals would bring fulfillment, but its just as elusive as when you started. Sometimes it takes a coach to remind you of the peace and joy you have in your relationship with Christ.
10. The economy scares you into making rash decisions. Fear induced decisions have never helped anyone. A coach brings structure and support to making sound decisions in an ever-changing environment.
11. God has become the least of your priorities. Running a Christian business without God will eventually leave you with a business run into the ground. God can use coaching to draw you back to Him, put Him first, and help you obey His instructions.
12. You’ve outgrown your current strategy. You’re becoming uncomfortable where you are. You’ve hit a wall and can’t tell if it’s resistance or redirection. This can be conviction that it is time to move on. Having someone walk with you in this season can bring clarity to the source of your discomfort and take the necessary steps to handle it.
13. Procrastination kicking in? You’ve made progress, but now momentum has slowed. If procrastination is holding you back, Faith Over Fear shares 3 ways to break through. Coaching isn’t about pushing—it’s about helping you stay accountable and set achievable action steps that align with your work ethic.
14. Success is beginning to feel overwhelming. With success can come unexpected challenges. Christian business coaching gives you the tools to delegate effectively and figure out when to step back.
15. You want to leap forward in faith, but the voice of self-doubt keeps holding you at the edge. Stepping out on faith can be scary. With a trusted coach, you can partner with someone in faith to take the step you need.
16. It seems like no matter what you do, you cant seem to stand out. Ecclesiastes 1:9 says “What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun.” There is nothing new but you are also uniquely made. You have something different to offer. With Spirit-led guidance, the best in you comes forward—ready to be shared with the world.
17. Many faith-driven founders wrestle with how to honor God while making money. Keeping God first while also honoring your hard work can sometimes feel like a tight rope walk. Christian business coaching isn’t about pushing for more profit. It’s about helping you recognize how much your work is worth and how you can honor God with your wealth.
18. No one believes in you. You weren’t meant to build this alone. Having a support system is great when you’re starting something new, but sometimes the support you need doesn’t always come from the people you expect. With a trusted coach, you can hone in on your God given steps and trust Him when you may have no one else on your side.
19. You don’t believe in yourself. Sometimes you just need someone to help you see what God already told you**.** Oh ye of little faith! God can use coaching to help you focus on Jesus and strengthen your faith to take that step onto the water.
20. You know God is calling you higher, but the timing never seems quite right. In Ecclesiastes 3:1, we see “for everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.” The right coach helps you understand the season you’re in and take the steps that fit it best.
21. When everything looks good on paper, it can still be hard to know if you’re truly aligned with God’s will. The path forward doesn’t always make sense—and sometimes it may even feel impossible, leaving you stuck. Coaching isn’t about having all the answers; it’s about gaining clarity so you can align your business with Kingdom purpose.
22. It’s time to get perspective from someone grounded in both business and faith. Sometimes, the people closest to us aren’t able to support or see the vision for where God is taking us—and that’s okay. The right coaching relationship can help you find the God-given community you need for this season of your business.
23. Even strong leaders need someone to reflect truth back to them. As an entrepreneur, creating structure can be challenging—but accountability helps even the most productive person stay focused on the bigger picture. A coach brings both structure and support to build new habits and follow through to completion.
24. You’re moving forward—but not in the right direction. Your personal life is deeply affecting your business. In a Christian business, there’s often little separation between your work and your walk with God. A coach can help you navigate the spiritual or personal challenges that may be impacting your business.
25. You’re running with passion—but in circles. You don’t understand who God has made you to be. Our purposes are not all about making money or having a business. A faith-based coach helps you grow in your identity in Christ—and discover what that means for your business and beyond.

All Christian entrepreneurs and small business owners can use some support. I offer coaching to help you grow your business in alignment with your faith.
