Ep 2146: Building a Business with a Kingdom Mindset

What happens when God takes an entrepreneur’s ambition, strips away self-reliance, and replaces it with a Kingdom mindset? 

In this compelling episode, Geeta Chopra shares her remarkable journey from Hinduism and New Age spirituality to a life fully surrendered to Jesus – and how that transformation completely changed the way she approaches business, leadership, and purpose. 

As Geeta began building a business with God at the center, she quickly discovered that entrepreneurship doesn’t just reveal strengths. It exposes the areas God still wants to heal. From learning radical obedience to navigating decisions that didn’t make logical business sense, Geeta shares how the Holy Spirit became her guide not only spiritually, but practically as an entrepreneur. 

This conversation dives into what it really means to lead with a Kingdom mindset in today’s marketplace and why faith-driven business owners must learn to depend on God’s wisdom over worldly strategies. 

What You’ll Hear in This Episode: 

  • Geeta’s powerful testimony of finding Jesus after years of spiritual searching 

  • Why entrepreneurship often exposes pride, fear, insecurity, and control 

  • How renewing your mind impacts leadership and decision-making 

  • What it looks like to build a business with Kingdom purpose 

  • Why God sometimes asks entrepreneurs to take steps that seem irrational 

  • The connection between obedience, faith, and business growth 

  • The vision behind Excellence Directory, a global Christian business platform 

  • Encouragement for leaders seeking clarity, purpose, and spiritual boldness 

Whether you’re leading a company, launching something new, or simply trying to honor God in your work, this episode is a powerful reminder that business can become one of God’s greatest tools for discipleship, refinement, and Kingdom impact.
