    Guest and Author Bob Goff Invites More Whimsey in Our Routines

    In this episode, I sit down with renowned author, coach, and friend Bob Goff to discuss his latest devotional, Catching Whimsy: 365 Days of Possibility. Bob invites us to rethink "whimsy" not as something frivolous, but as a purposeful pursuit that brings joy, curiosity, and lightness to our lives. Bob introduces us to the concept of the “Jesus aroma”—a reminder to reflect on how our actions and presence reflect Christ’s love. He challenges us to live intentionally, making choices that lift others and bring out the best in ourselves. With practical ideas, Bob encourages us to spread whimsy through acts of kindness and service to our families, friends, and neighbors. We also dive into the importance of focusing on the big picture and asking ourselves, “What will outlast me?” This conversation will uplift you and give you a fresh perspective on how small, meaningful actions can make a lasting impact.

    Navigating the Messy Middle: Embracing Challenges and Finding Clarity

    In this episode of The Encourager, I’m opening up about my “messy middle”—a season of business that’s been unexpectedly challenging, even after 20 years in the game. Join me as I share what this season looks like, what I’m doing to keep things basic and manageable, and how focusing on the next 60 days has brought clarity and peace. I dive into the essentials I’ve returned to, from blocking out time intentionally to revisiting the “why” behind my work. I also discuss the visual tools that help me stay on track: a refreshed vision board, a habit tracker for consistency, and our weekly Honey Huddle meetings that help Nick and me stay aligned. Key Takeaways: Returning to Basics: Reassessing priorities and going back to foundational work habits. Visual Tools for Consistency: Using a vision board, habit tracker, and Honey Huddle for clarity. Focusing on Short-Term Goals: Setting sights on the next 60 days to create momentum without feeling overwhelmed.

    A Fresh Start in 3 Simple Steps

    Feeling like you need a fresh start? In this episode of The Encourager Podcast, we’re diving into three simple steps to help you reset, refocus, and feel more energized in your day-to-day life. These practical tips are designed to help you gain clarity, find joy, and make room for what truly matters. Episode highlights: Step 1: Clean Something. Whether it’s a small drawer, your workspace, or a cluttered corner of your home, cleaning something gives you an instant mental and physical boost, setting the stage for a fresh start. Step 2: Find Your Joy! We’ll guide you through answering key questions—who, what, when, where, why, and how—to reconnect with what brings you joy and how to incorporate more of it into your life. Step 3: Cancel Something. With newfound clarity and joy, it’s time to take a hard look at your commitments. Learn how to cancel tasks, obligations, or routines that no longer align with your goals, giving you the space to focus on what truly matters. Pro Tip: Approach these steps with just 1% effort initially and aim for 80% completion—no need for perfection. This leaves room for adjustments and keeps the momentum going.
