#176 Breaking Free from Busyness: Stewarding Time God’s Way with Lissa Figgins

Jeanette interviews Lissa Figgins, a "Recovering Busyness Owner," about Christ-centered strategies to manage time, break free from hustle culture, and steward time as a gift from God. She shares her experience of overcoming busyness and reveals her three pivotal shifts: changing your beliefs about time, stepping into the role of a steward instead of a manager, and focusing on purpose through the question, "What is it time for?" Tune in to learn insights for balancing life, business, and faith while building a God-glorifying, time-redeemed life.

Lissa has UN-hurried her heart, breaking free from the addiction to controlling time, multitasking, and constantly "doing." Her God-given mission is to transform the way Christian women business owners approach time, helping them increase their ROI in less time, all for the glory of God.

As a coach and teacher, Lissa empowers her clients to steward time as a gift from God, stepping into their role as a C.E.O. (Christ Empowered Operator) of a WITH-God Life + Business. Her message is simple but profound: YOU. HAVE. TIME.

Lissa’s approach combines faith, purpose, and practical strategies, inspiring women to align their time with God’s calling and live a life that reflects His abundance.

"Our busyness isn’t a disordered calendar—it’s a disordered heart."

"You have time. God gave you 24 hours today, just like He did yesterday

"Multitasking isn’t your superpower—it’s your kryptonite."

The enemy wants us busy and distracted, because then we’re no threat to him and no use to the kingdom."

With God, there’s always an abundant ROI—because He is the supplier and the multiplier."

"Stop trying to manage time. Be a steward of it instead."
