The Spiritual Side of Entrepreneurship: Purpose, Resistance & Growth | Special Edition

Cory Mosley

In this special edition of the Grow Business Podcast, Cory Mosley sits down with longtime friend, entrepreneur, speaker, and business coach Mary Foley to explore a side of business that doesn't always get talked about: the spiritual journey of entrepreneurship.

Drawing from her experience in corporate leadership, entrepreneurship, professional speaking, and coaching, Mary shares how building a business can reveal who you are, challenge what you believe, and force you to confront fear, resistance, discipline, and purpose.

From doing the revenue-generating work you may want to avoid to navigating difficult seasons and questioning whether you're still on the right path, Cory and Mary discuss why growing a business often requires just as much internal growth as it does strategy.

Whether you're an entrepreneur, small business owner, leader, or someone navigating a challenging season in business, this conversation offers a different perspective on what it really takes to keep moving forward.


Inside this episode:


  • Why entrepreneurship can be a spiritual journey
  • The importance of aligning your business with purpose
  • Why building a business can reveal and strengthen your character
  • How fear and resistance can hold entrepreneurs back
  • Why difficult seasons don't always mean it's time to quit
  • The importance of understanding your deeper "why"
  • Why revenue-generating activities have to remain a priority
  • How accountability helps turn intentions into action
  • Why CEOs still need to think like salespeople
  • The role perseverance plays in long-term business growth
  • Why entrepreneurship isn't necessarily the right path for everyone
  • How business challenges can develop courage, discipline, humility, patience, faith, and gratitude

Key Takeaway:

Your business doesn't just reveal what's happening in the marketplace—it can reveal what's happening inside of you.


Growth requires more than the right strategy. It requires the willingness to confront resistance, work through fear, stay disciplined, reconnect with your purpose, and keep asking yourself why you're doing what you're doing.


Success isn't only about how much revenue you generate. It's also about who you become while building the business.

Perfect for entrepreneurs, small business owners, business leaders, executives, coaches, consultants, sales professionals, and anyone navigating the challenges of building and growing a business.
