About your host

Kelly Baader

Kelly Baader is a TEDx speaker, Amazon bestselling author, and ICF-certified coach who's spent nearly two decades helping Christ-centered entrepreneurs across three continents build profitable businesses without burning out.

After building her own "successful" business that nearly cost her everything that mattered, God met her in her kitchen on her 50th birthday with a clear mandate: gather His Esthers and Josephs and equip them to take their places in the marketplace.

Since 2008, Kelly has coached founders from zero revenue to corporate contracts, helped entrepreneurs scale to teams of 8+, and watched clients hit 50% closing rates on their first launches. Her approach centers on one revolutionary truth: Grace is the fastest accelerator.
You'll get a no-holds-barred look at how Kelly builds her business—plus candid conversations with hand-picked experts and unexpected entrepreneurs who've cracked the code on sustainable success without sacrificing what matters most.

No hustle culture. No "rise and grind." Just real talk about building a business that honors your faith, your family, and your sanity.
