Ep 18: What happens when a quiet nudge from God turns into a full-blown mission to save a family on the other side of the world?

Andrea Befus thought she was just good at maps, spreadsheets, and hospitality. What she didn’t realize was that her unique combination of skills would one day lead her to orchestrate a covert rescue mission for a family in Afghanistan—and redefine her entire sense of purpose.

In this moving and wildly inspiring conversation, Andrea shares her unexpected journey from corporate mapping geek to entrepreneurial Airbnb maven, and the one headline that cracked her open and set her life on a different course. But this episode goes far beyond business—Andrea opens up about marriage, motherhood, faith, and how to know when it’s time to pivot, even if everything seems “fine.”

Whether you're a seeker, a mother, a builder, or someone in-between, this conversation will shake loose something in you. It's about divine discomfort, staying in motion, and the quiet courage to answer a call that doesn’t make logical sense—but makes a spiritual one.

🎧 Listen in for:

🔥 Why feeling “comfortable” might actually be your sign to move

🔥 Andrea’s wild story of helping a family escape the Taliban—with nothing but her laptop

🔥 The tension between ambition and motherhood—and how she reconciles both

🔥 What to do when God feels silent (and why it might be you, not Him)

🔥 The surprising way she uses ChatGPT for spiritual mindset breakthroughs

💡 This episode is for anyone who’s ever thought, “There’s got to be more than this,” and is ready to trade comfort for calling. You will leave this episode more grounded in who you are and more clear on what you’re here to do.

Ep 17: In this gripping and vulnerable episode, host Sarah sits down with tax strategist and entrepreneur Preston Anderson, founder of Anderson Tax, who’s made it his mission to help business owners legally hold onto more of their money.

But this isn’t your typical finance episode.

Preston opens up about the near-death of his newborn son, whose life hung in the balance after a diagnosis of congenital heart defects. What followed was two years of hospital stays, emergency surgeries, a devastating call to "say goodbye," and a moment that shattered everything he thought he knew about work, purpose, and legacy.

Whether you're a business owner wanting to pay less in taxes legally, a parent facing unimaginable challenges, or simply someone hungry for a deeper sense of purpose, this episode delivers the raw truth. No fluff. Just one man’s journey from burnout and hustle to clarity and impact.

You’ll laugh, you’ll cry—and you’ll definitely rethink what “winning” in business really means.

Why Listen:

You'll walk away with more than tips—you'll leave with perspective. The kind that sticks with you and shifts how you show up in work and life.

🔥Clarity on redefining success — beyond hustle culture and toxic productivity.

🔥Real talk on grief and burnout — and how to grow through it, not just go through it.

🔥Insight on building a life-giving business — one that aligns with your values.

🔥Encouragement to slow down — without feeling like you're falling behind.

🔥A reminder that you're not alone — especially if you’re tired of chasing “more.”

Ep 16: What if the best marketing strategy you’re not using… is sitting in your pocket?

In this episode of Unreasonable Autonomy, Sarah Grace sits down with Mark Beall, former IT pro turned YouTube strategist with over 15 million long-form views—to unpack why YouTube isn’t just for gamers and vloggers… it’s the platform for entrepreneurs serious about long-term sales and real conversion.

Mark didn’t set out to be a content creator. In fact, he resisted it—until a lazy Susan cabinet and a five-minute video changed everything.

This isn’t your typical YouTube success story. It’s a behind-the-scenes blueprint for:

• Why YouTube crushes Facebook and Instagram when it comes to ROI

• 
  

• How “content hacking” can shortcut your growth (without selling your soul)

  
  

• Why helping one person on video is more powerful than chasing likes

  
  

• The truth about the algorithm (and how to make it work for you)

  
  

• Why you’re building assets, not posts—and how they convert long after you hit publish

But it doesn’t stop there. Mark opens up about raising three boys in a YouTube-driven world, how he navigates faith and parenting in the digital age, and why God has shown up most in the closed doors of his life.

Whether you're launching a brand, scaling a service, or just wondering if your 11-year-old should be on YouTube (Mark’s son wants to be a trick shot star!), this conversation is a masterclass in strategy and soul.

🎧 Listen now to discover:

✔️ Why you don't need flashy thumbnails to win on YouTube

✔️ The one mindset shift every entrepreneur must make before creating content

✔️ How to start with bottom-of-funnel videos and build backward

✔️ The parenting convo no one’s having about YouTube and kids
