Challenging Women to Embrace Change

Carenda Deonne

Have you ever felt like life is spiraling out of control? Or that you are being pressured to be “perfect” in everything you do. This is especially true if you are in the ministry in some form or fashion. God forbid you should ever be anything BUT perfect, right? It seems like people today are putting unnecessary pressure on themselves to live a life of perfection. Then, when they do not live up to the perfect image, they feel like they have failed. Failed in life, failed in business, failed in marriage – you get the picture.

Well, my guest today was just like you. Carenda Deonne she lived like this for many years as a former pastors wife and entrepreneur. After two failed marriages and business relationships, Carenda stopped pointing the finger outward and pointed inward. She confronted her own imperfections, lack of self-love and trust. Only when she was “Carenda,” was she able to life a full and fruitful life.

Now, she is licensed minister, a contributing writer to “Grace and Glory Magazine,” the founder and organizer of P.H.S. which stands for “Prospering Healthy Souls,” which is a Christian centered group for professional women. Through this group, she helps women in fostering prosperity through wisdom, healing and strategy for both, personal and professional growth.

Carenda Deonne is also the a published author of three books, the latest is titled, “Perfect Patty Messed Up Devotional,” which we will be discussing today. She is a professional speaker and takes her message of “IMPACT” all across the world, as she is determined to be an undeniable voice and calls herself, an “agent of change.”

Help me welcome to the program, Carenda Deonne!

First question, other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Carenda Deonne?”

Now, from your bio, I guess it would be safe to say that your life has not always been one of sunshine and roses, right?”

At what point in your life did you realize you had to take care of you?

Why do you identify yourself as a “Change Agent?” What does that mean?

Why do you believe some people are so hesitant to embrace change?

As you go through the process of helping your clients, what is one of the major misconceptions you find that people have concerning change?

I know I’ve talked to some folks that were going through some issues, they felt like, “once I get through this, THEN I’ll do such and such.”  Have you found that to be true as well?  I mean, why do some people find it so hard to embrace change, especially when they KNOW they must change, until they “go through” whatever it is they are experiencing at that moment?

Tell us about your book, “Perfect Patty Messed Up Devotional.” What is this book about?

How can someone get a copy of “Perfect Patty Messed Up Devotional?” Is it on Amazon?

What other services do you provide?

If someone has a question or wanted to reach out to you, how can they do that? How can someone get in touch with you?

I’ll put links to all of this in the show notes below.

Folks, I know you know someone who can use Carenda’s services. I also know that you or someone you know would be blessed by Carenda’s new book, “Perfect Patty Messed Up Devotional.”

Just go down into the show notes and click the links right there. Get in touch with Carenda. Invite her out to speak to your group or conference. Get in touch online to access her services…and be sure to order her book, “Perfect Patty Messed Up Devotional,”  In fact, as this goes to air, you know Christmas is just around the corner. “Perfect Patty Messed Up Devotional” would make a great gift for someone you know.

Carenda, I want to thank you for taking the time from your busy schedule to visit with us today.

Folks, that is all the time we have for today. For Carenda Deonne and myself, this is Pastor Bob reminding you to BE BLESSED IN ALL THAT YOU DO!

About your host

Profile picture for Robert Thibodeau

Robert Thibodeau

I am a 12 year Army veteran as both enlisted and as a commissioned Cavalry Officer.
I am now a retired law enforcement supervisor...

I had my own business for seven years before I entered law enforcement.

As a cop, I was injured on the job on May 12, 2007 and after several surgeries over a couple of years, forced to retire in 2011.

As I was looking down the road to “what am I going to do next?” I started what is now known as a podcast (I had no clue at the time).

Within six months of starting (what I called) “My online radio program” I was offered an opportunity to be on nationwide AM radio. I learned A LOT in one year of doing that!

I then started the online Christian radio platform "Evangelism Radio" in the fall of 2010. It has had listeners in 160+ nations and all 50 states. We host 50+ Christian broadcasters on a weekly basis. We have been operating 24/7 for almost 14 years now. We have been rated #1 in the world by Shoutcast. com on several occasions in our genre. We recently transferred ownership of Evangelism Radio to another ministry so I could concentrate full time on podcasting, preaching and writing.

In 2018, I started the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast to conduct interviews with Christian influencers from all walks of life and to play their interviews on the radio station. (The KCR Podcast has its own time slot on Evangelism Radio)!
We now have over 1600 episodes and almost 1100 interviews (in just over 6 years).

Looking out at the future of online Christian media, I noticed there was no viable platforms that catered only to the Christian podcast market.

In 2023, we launched a networking platform called, "FaithCasters" which connects "Great Christian podcasters with Great Christian Guests!" This helps to promote the work you do through podcast interviews! Check it out at https://FaithCaster.org

We recently launched "FaithCaster Academy" which serves as a training hub for ALL of our trainings (podcast training / speaker training / interview training, etc.). Members receive access to ALL of our training programs for one low, monthly membership fee. Members also receive FREE access to ALL of the LIVE trainings I conduct (1 or 2 per month) - while non-members have to pay to access the live trainings.

Between my podcast training program, conducting podcast interviews, appearing on other podcasts as guests, speaking at conferences (in person and virtually) and the podcast networking platform, I guess you could say “I’m all in” when it comes to podcasting and online media!

My total focus is to do all we can to assist you to “Get The Word Out” about your mission, services, products, ministry, books, business, etc.
