Sober Living

Tatum is in the trenches of her first-year law school finals, so this week she's bringing back one of her most foundational episodes — and as she always says, when an oldie comes back around, trust that the Lord is bringing it back for a reason. Whether you've heard it before or this is your first time, this one is worth sitting with.

In this episode, Tatum opens up about the early years of making God the CEO of her business and introduces a new series focused on the application of faith-driven entrepreneurship — not just the information, but the lived practice.

Before diving into strategy, marketing, or business plans, she makes the case that we have to start with sobriety: freeing ourselves from the influences, distractions, and cultural pressures that pull our focus away from the Lord and onto the metrics of the world.

In this episode, Tatum covers:

• Why sobriety is the non-negotiable foundation before any business building can begin
• The story of how obedience during a season of stripping and pruning led to her most fruitful breakthroughs
• The moment she hit her first six-figure year — and why her reaction to it changed everything
• How entrepreneurship can become its own kind of intoxication
• A word for anyone being called to pioneer something new, even when it feels lonely and irrational

The 5 Substances to Detox From:

1. Success culture and performance pressure
2. Digital noise and comparison
3. Mixed mentorship
4. Materialism and metrics-based validation
5. Over-independence
