How do you build a business that reflects your faith, fuels your purpose, and still drives results?

 

In this power-packed episode, Nicole Jansen sits down with Tamara Jackson—former Fortune 500 VP, CEO of Lead Reviver, founder of Beaconship, and creator of the GRASP faith framework. Tamara shares her journey of leaving corporate comfort to follow God’s calling, navigating unexpected pivots (including pandemic shutdowns), and proving that bold faith fuels both purpose and business success.

You’ll discover how to make Spirit-led decisions with confidence, integrate faith authentically into your business and leadership, break free from comfort zones and self-imposed limitations, and harness AI in sales—without losing integrity or human connection

Join us for a grounded, candid, and inspiring conversation about building a business and life rooted in faith—not fear.
