I got SO much done today. It really helped shift my mindset and be really locked in. It was such a productive time. Being able to start with prayer too!? Like, this is the space I needed!

Founder Experience
Faithful Founder has been an important part of my support system. Recently going through major life challenges and transitions FF has been there for me. I have connected with some of the most amazing women who started out as accountability partners but are now women I call friends.

After completing the Faithful Focus, I feel at ease and at peace about the direction I am going for the quarter and the next few years. It helped me settle you down to really think about what I want , desire and need. It pushed me away from doing work in a frenzy and helped me ease into rest and productivity.

This retreat was such a breath of fresh air. It was lovely seeing you all and I walked away with 2 accountability partners. So there's no "not getting it done" this quarter! I blocked off my calendar based on my goals and I cannot tell you how much I feel like I've already won!

We Offer a Christian Approach to Planning & Business Building
In addition to praying before all of our live sessions, our training materials & planning process are infused with our signature Give God Room™ method to help you move with confidence that your plans align with God’s will.
The Give God Room™ Method looks like this:
The Give God Room™ Method looks like this:
Our founder, her friends & clients have shared how much implementing this method has helped them stop second-guessing themselves and make moves with so much more confidence that they have God’s stamp of approval on their plans.
After hearing Marlena mention that she prays a full week before making big decisions, I decided to pray for a week about my 2021 plans and wait for God to show me what He wanted me to do. I went into that week thinking I was going to gain clarity on a few goals but what I came out with was some goals plus MORE!

Give God Room really built this discipline in me to say, "Lord is this what you want?", and then because I wait and hear from Him and then adjust, now there’s been no doubt in what I built. So it builds my confidence and now I’m not just running around, I’ve done the work, I’ve consulted with the Lord. My confidence has totally shifted.

I’m so thankful for this process because now, instead of spinning on an idea forever, I’m now putting it in front of God and moving on to something else completely. I used to waste so much time spinning on ideas and then they’d change the next week. I believe this has been the solution to that and I’m so grateful!

NOTE: Because Faithful Founder™ is a new community, these testimonies are from Marlena herself as well as one of her friends & a former coaching client who implemented the Give God Room™ method; not from members of Faithful Founder™ . We’re excited for the specific testimonies to roll in from our new Faithful Founder™ members!

My task today was to start on my book glossary. I had been neglecting it cuz it’s not as fun as writing the book, but I’ve gotten halfway through it and identified the words that need to go into it. At least I started the task and I’m really glad I had this time to do it cuz I kept putting it off and finding other things to do so I needed this.

This hour and half gave me a chance to just sit and have some quiet time and Bible study. I’m going to keep going after this but I really needed this time and that prayer at the beginning was needed too.

I had 3 things on my list and got them all done. I can get so scatterbrained because of overwhelm but now I'm feeling good about moving into February prioritizing what I need to get done. Definitely plan to make these sessions part of my weekly routine.

We know that some seasons require focus in other areas of your life outside of your business. Use this space to get the work done that’s most important to you right now.
How to get started:
- Sign up for your membership. Think of it like a virtual coworking space with all the amenities you need to get work done in the key areas of your life & business.
- RSVP to your sessions. Pick the sessions that work best with your schedule. Attend as many or as few as you want. You’ll get reminders for when they start and guidance to help you prep and make the most out of your session.
- Show up & Execute. We’ll lead you into the undistracted, focused head space you need for getting more done so you can get back to enjoying your best most abundant life.
FAQ's:
- Is there a contract? No, it’s a subscription you can cancel anytime.
- When are the co-working sessions? Monday through Wednesday from 12-1:30pm EST, 3-4:30pm EST & 5-6:30pm EST. Thursday 5-6:30pm EST. The 7-8:30pm EST session is (COMING SOON!) More session times will be added as our membership grows. NOTE: Live sessions are closed during most major holidays but the space and access to our digital resources remains available year-round.
- How are your co-working sessions structured? They’re 90-minute, silent co-working sessions held live on Zoom. You have a dedicated host who guides the session helping you get focused and be productive.
- What can I use a co-working session for? Whatever work you need to use it for! We encourage you to use these as a tool for knocking out any tasks associated with whatever you’ve got going on in your life or business.
- Can I purchase individual co-working or planning sessions? Not at this time. We believe strongly that you will benefit most from investing in our complete system for best results.
- How much does it cost? Just $40/mo or $400/yr.
- Do I have to be Christian to join? Yes. This community is intended to be a safe space for dope Christian people and we need to protect that. If you are bothered or uncomfortable in any way with prayers being prayed before sessions, ongoing conversations about how good God is and how active He is in our lives & businesses or have any type of animosity towards Christian people or our beliefs, save yourself the time & money because this is not the community for you.
- Are men allowed in this space? Absolutely. This space was founded by a black Christian woman so there’s a lot of us in here (and it’s amazing!). That said this space is more about Kingdom than gender or color so if the support you can receive here is vibing with you, come on in.
- Are my racist or hate-filled views welcome here? No. No matter what color you are or party you belong to, degrading comments about things like race, religion, culture, sexual orientation, political parties, gender or identity will not be tolerated. It’s all love up in here, always!
Doing this alone is what's keeping you stuck.
Have you found yourself struggling in any of these areas?
Trusting God in the midst of hard life & business circumstances, long waiting periods & a million unknowns
Letting imposter syndrome hold you back from putting yourself out there & doing the things God is calling you to do
Discerning between God’s will or timing while surrendering to what He wants
Battling comparison and being influenced by what other people are doing or what they think
Anxiety around how it’s all going to work out & relinquishing control
Internal fear & pressure that you’re running out of time to get it all done
Your own petty fears, excuses & second-guessing causing you to miss out on things that would bring you joy
Outgrown friendships & networks that aren’t supporting you with your current life & business goals
Sure listening to sermons, reading Bible plans, going to therapy & doing the work on your own has gotten you pretty far. But imagine how much further you could go if you were surrounded & supported by a dedicated squad of peers on the same journey as you.
Having this community will help you...
- Get more of your most important work done
- Feel more consistent & accomplished
- Trust God and stay grounded when life starts life’ing.
- Push through mental blocks keeping you stuck
- Increase your network of potential clients, team members, opportunities, connections & friends
- Build your business and every other big idea you have in a way that honors what God has placed in your heart to create
- Remember that you’re not crazy or alone when you have to make decisions that may not seem logical but are directed by God
“And the Lord said, ‘Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom his master will make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of food in due season? Blessed is that servant whom his master will find so doing when he comes. Truly, I say to you that he will make him ruler over all that he has.’” - Luke 12:42-44 (New King James Version)

I had an epiphany while doing my Faithful Focus™ vision exercise that my vision is GIVEN. Like, it just hit me. I WILL impact the world for God's glory one mom at a time. It's given. I'm soooo glad I did this work before starting the Moms to Moguls coaching program, a trillion times over. I can't imagine not having done this work beforehand. Seeing my entire vision for not just my business but my family all on paper like this, I just keep looking at it like this feels SO good to see.
