TOP 2% GLOBALLY RANKED BUSINESS PODCAST FOR CHRISTIANS WHO WANT TO START A SERVICE-BASED BUSINESS WHILE WORKING A 9-TO-5
Hi, I’m Chichi - Business Strategist, Implementation Coach, and a Jesus Follower.
🎙️ Welcome to the Start That Business Podcast—a faith-based business podcast for Christians working a 9-to-5 who feel called to more. Here, you’ll find the clarity, strategy, systems, and faith-led guidance you need to step boldly into your God-given calling to start a service-based business.
If that resonates with you, you’re in the right place.
I knew I was called to start a business, but I wrestled with a lack of clarity, self-doubt, and the fear of losing a stable income. That fear kept me stuck in my 9-to-5 longer than I should have until I traded it for faith and obedience. I left my job, built a multi–7-figure global logistics brand, and ran it for 13 years, serving thousands of customers worldwide.
Now, I help other Christians working a 9-to-5 do the same.
Your next assignment starts here, with someone who has lived the journey, navigated the transitions, endured the pressure, ridden the ups and downs, and stayed anchored in faith through it all.
You don’t have to stay stuck in fear, doubt, or confusion. God has already equipped you to launch the business He placed in your heart. 🙏🏽
Inside this podcast, you’ll gain:
✨ Clarity on your business idea and focused direction
✨ A proven, practical launch plan
✨ The right business foundations
✨ A simple, aligned offer that honors your current season and capacity
✨ Sustainable systems that grow with you
✨ Confidence to launch your business without sacrificing your financial stability
If you’re unfulfilled in a 9-to-5 job you’ve outgrown, overwhelmed by too many ideas, unsure where to start, or craving more time, freedom, income, and impact, you’re in the right place. 💡
It’s time to partner with God and step boldly into your calling to start that business.
You know the one I’m talking about.
Yes, that one you’ve been putting off for a long time.
👉 Next Steps: I invite you to work with me.

During the call, you’ll gain clarity on:
✨ The challenges stopping you from starting your service-based business
✨ The problems those challenges are creating and
✨ How to overcome them
By the end of the call, you’ll have the clarity you need to take the next best step and confidently launch your service-based business while working your 9-to-5. 🚀

Are you struggling as a Christian woman to put a price tag on my services? Are you struggling with inaccurate and limiting beliefs about money like “the love of money is the root of all evil”? Do you believe that Jesus Followers should give away their services for free? This episode is for you.
When you package your gift and present your gift, it becomes a prescription that solves a problem for your customers. The same way you pay for your prescription at the pharmacy is the same way the world will compensate you for your gift when you use it to serve the world.
Ecclesiastes 7:12 says “money is a defense”. Ecclesiastes 10:19 says “money answers all things”. Don’t be ashamed, guilty, or afraid to put a price tag on your services.
I pray this episode transforms your life.
