About Qualified For More

Qualified for More is the podcast for high-achieving, purpose-driven humans who are over the hustle and done pretending that success alone equals fulfillment.

I'm your host, Rhonda Velez coach, speaker, business pro, and fellow human figuring it out in real time. Here, we get honest about identity, faith, calling, leadership, and all the behind-the-scenes stuff no one puts on a résumé. Because you're more than your job title. It's more than a motivational quote slapped on a sunset background. And way more than your never-ending to-do list. You are qualified for more, and this podcast will help you believe it, own it, and live like it.

   Season 3 Ep 1-It's Bigger Than Me: A Conversation with Molly Gomez

   What happens when your story becomes bigger than you? In this powerful conversation with Molly Gomez, we talk about faith, purpose, storytelling, leadership, and what it looks like to steward the experiences God has entrusted to you. Molly is a former television news anchor and ESPN sideline reporter turned Signature Story Strategist, international speaker, and founder of Signature Story Co. She created The Seven Story System, a framework designed to help leaders turn their lived experiences, expertise, and stories into meaningful communication assets that build trust, authority, and connection. But this conversation goes far beyond business and branding. We explore what it means to recognize the story God is writing through your life, how our experiences can become part of our calling, and why the right story can create connection, clarity, and impact. Molly and I talk about: ✨ Finding the courage to tell the stories that shaped you ✨ Turning your lived experience into a message that serves others ✨ The connection between story, purpose, influence, and leadership ✨ Why clarity matters when communicating what you carry ✨ Faith, obedience, and stewarding your influence ✨ How your story can become a bridge for someone else's breakthrough ✨ Moving from simply having a story to intentionally stewarding it If you've ever wondered whether your story matters, how your experiences fit into your purpose, or what God might be asking you to do with the influence you've been given, this conversation is for you. Your story isn't just about what happened to you. It's about what can happen through you.
