Do Less.All those hopes...all those dreams...all those GREAT ideas...say no to them.Your brain is gonna argue with you and tell you how good all those things are...It's gonna tell you how impactful, meaningful, and memory stacking they're going to be for your kids...for you...for your family.But the truth is, kids are gonna whine, someone's going to lose their shoes, siblings are going to find a reason to argue...and you're gonna come home tapped out...That's okay for some things...that are actually worth it...but for all the rest...it won't be.It's going to leave you feeling resentful, tired, and asking why you even do these nice things if your kids are just going to complain about it and fight the whole time.

In case you didn't know this, I love my Tuesday episodes because they are unscripted! In this particular batch of my unscripted Tuesday thoughts, I open up about the challenges of staying focused as a creative entrepreneur. If you're like me, then you have very likely experienced “shiny object syndrome” - that temptation to jump from one exciting idea to the next, but this year, my mission has been to dial in on what truly matters to my business and heart, which is serving the surface pattern design industry! Listen in as I will be sharing how I had to make some tough decisions, like sadly having to cancel our highly anticipated Professional Creative Conference, despite how incredible that it definitely would have been! That was a moment that was painful, but it also felt like a weight lifted off my shoulders because it allowed me to stay true to my mission. Refining focus has been far from easy, but it is truly necessary to make room for our best yeses! We have some truly exciting new things in the works, including a product shop that will be a living example for our students, a brand-new in-house art agent, and a potential journal publication for our industry! I am so excited to explore these opportunities while staying aligned with our core mission, and I really hope that you will walk away from this episode of the show inspired to take a closer look at your own focus! What can you say no to in order to protect your best yes?

How can we celebrate our own individuality (and the individuality of others) by being honest about our needs, finding unique ways to meet them, and saying out loud the things we appreciate about each other? How can we celebrate children's individuality in school settings and beyond?What happens when we learn, not only how to tell our own story, but to hear the stories of others as well?What does it look like to set boundaries that allow us to say our "Best Yes"?...Stephanie Higgs is, above all else, a passionate educator.

Context I need to get better at saying no, don't want to get too good at saying no. I want to be strategic about saying yes. Big Idea Good leadership & great leadership is time well spent. My Goal: In every moment to say yes to the best thing. “The Best Yes” I don't want to get better at no, I want to get more deliberate about my yes. Factors Energy: A yes now can't inhibit a better yes later. Relationship: A yes needs to prioritize people. Scheduling: Don't say yes in advance that I'll regret later: need more “maybes”
Saying "Yes" to God's invitation requires an unwavering trust in His plan, unwavering courage in the face of uncertainty, and a continual willingness to realign our priorities and perspectives with His perfect agenda. Simon Peter moves from semi-follower of Jesus to forsaking all and following Him after taking Jesus at His Word. Have you forsook all and followed Jesus? Have you became a fisher of people?
A pivotal moment in history occurred when God approached Mary and entrusted her with a crucial role in His grand plan of redemption for all humanity. Her unequivocal and resounding YES set in motion a series of events that would ultimately change the course of the world. Similarly, God is approaching you with a crucial role to play in His plan of redemption. Will you say, “Yes”?
The young boy Samuel heard God's voice but needed help discerning who was speaking to him. We also need help recognizing God's voice experientially and through reading His Word.

Most every episode a guest says something that hits me as a profound truth, one I have probably heard before and forgotten, and certainly one I need to be reminded of. Robyn Rebold-Smith spoke of making choices very intentionally. How giving her ‘best yes' to one thing meant saying no to other things. No to things that she would be missing out on but would give more quality and strength to the ‘yes' somewhere else. I have been sitting in this wisdom, how simple and balanced it is.Robyn is committed to being real and that means having challenging conversations when necessary. She investigates and gathers information to see things from all perspectives. Then she looks at her part in the situation to see how to make things better. She loves people and wants to have positive impact. And her greatest passion? Raising the two human beings that call her mom.

"No" is not a bad word. "No" is just as productive as "yes." Today's conversation is an honest look into how Tara has been slowing down, learning to give her best "yes" and "no", and making the most of her time. This conversation is rooted in Ephesians 5:5-17 so grab your headphones and tune into the conversation for practical, biblical encouragement.

As Christ-followers and servant leaders, sometimes we get confused and overwhelmed by all of the opportunities to serve that come our way. I recently spoke to an amazing Christian woman who serves in and outside her work place in so many ways. It is amazing that she is still standing upright. This lovely woman serves professionally in profound ways. She serves her family and her church in huge ways. But as I listened it sounded as if all of the commitments related to serving are squeezing out time for herself, and she's struggling to create more time and space for quiet time with God, for things that bring her joy and for healthy goals that she has. Her beautiful service-oriented heart leads her to feel like she has to say yes to everything that would be considered God-honoring work. It's so important to her to be a dedicated follower of Christ. Christ is an example of servant leadership. But are we actually supposed to say yes to every form of service that comes our way? If not, how do we know when it is ok to say “no” to God-honoring work? Today we are talking about ways to determine what is truly a God-assignment for you and what is perhaps intended for someone else. God-honoring does not always equate to God-assigned or God-appointed. I am giving you permission to say “no” when you can't give it your “Best Yes”. I hope this episode blesses you!

Hello Friends! We are continuing our decision of Famous at Home, and today we're talking about ways we can take action to create a lovely home. The first decision we are talking about today is Change Your Mindset - how to show up as the best version of you. We discuss what is the biggest pain point in our life right now and how we can make changes to change our mindset around that pain point. The second decision is How We Can Change Our Atmosphere - how to cultivate a life-giving environment. The example of an airplane changing its trajectory by making small adjustments over time. We too can make small changes to impact our family for good. Change can start with our words; they are powerful and impact each family member. It only takes a small shift each day to change the atmosphere in our homes!

How do we create meaning through shared language in every space?Why is it helpful to ask ourselves if what we know is being "Confirmed," "Challenged," or "Changed"?What does it look like to set boundaries that allow us to say our "Best Yes"?...Stephanie Higgs is, above all else, a passionate educator.

Saying no to something means saying yes to something else. Saying yes to something means saying no to something else. So why is it so hard? Why is it so hard to say NO to someone? Recently on multiple occasions, I've had someone ask if I could meet up with them for coffee. My immediate response in my head was “I don't want to” quickly followed by the self-condemning thoughts of ”ugg I”m such a horrible person.” Why was I equating the thought “I don't want to do something” to me being a horrible person?! Co-Dependent much? Sidenote- Co-Dependent basically is being so concerned about making others happy or desperately doing all you can to please other people, to make everyone else happy, and is a strong sense to be needed and wanted by others. It is very common but what you may not know is it's actually a form of manipulation…you rarely show up authentically and leads to a lot of bitterness and resentment which is a LOT to unpack maybe at a later date. (if you want to learn more about that the book The New Codependency by Melody Beattle is a great resource) But I don't want her to think I'm too busy for her or too busy for anyone, I want to be perceived as having time for everyone because that would make me a good “Christian Friend”. So basically I want to be in control of how I'm perceived by others I want to be in control of what others think of me. Basically, I want to be in control, HAHA! So why does one seek to “control”? Often the root is to feel SAFE. It feels REAL unsafe to not be able to control someone's perception of us because if we can't then there is the possibility that they could choose to judge us, reject us, or decide to think something about us that isn't true. But you know what the craziest thing of all is, even if I was perfect and truly had complete control of how I'm perceived they could STILL choose to judge, reject or decide differently about me (its called free will) and that, if I'm being honest initially feels downright terrifying. That feels out of control. That feels unsafe, doesn't it?! What's even more fascinating to me is that Jesus Christ, LITERAL perfection, God incarnate, who was without sin, had people HATE him, misjudge him, mock him, reject Him, and ultimately kill him! And you know that the Bible says over and over and over and over in between His time being with and ministering to people…He went to a solitary place to pray. He tapped into and prioritized connection, communion, and TIME with God REGULARLY. He knew what “his assignment” was and what it wasn't. He was able to handle the opinions of others because he was SOLID in his opinion and God's opinion and identity of himself. So many of us walk around this life being extra careful and extra cautious of what we allow others to see and don't even realize that our motivation to appear so put together or so “perfect” is because we DESPERATELY grasping at avoiding the possibility of feeling an uncomfortable or out of our control feeling someone else “might” have of us. Did you know everything we do or don't do is because of a feeling?! The reason you do everything you do and the reason you don't do the things you don't do it because you are trying to FEEL a certain way or NOT FEEL a certain way. It's truly fascinating. Test it out. Our THOUGHTS are what create certain FEELINGS and from FEELINGS we are motivated to do or NOT do anything and everything. No seriously, test it out. The reason you work out or don't work out is because of a feeling….that is fueled by a thought you are choosing to think. The reason you are bad with money or good with money is because of a feeling you have towards money…that is fueled by a thought you are choosing to think about it. The reason you show up as a leader or shy away from leading is because of a feeling you have about your leadership….that is fueled by a thought you are choosing to think about it. The reason you spend time working or don't spend time working is because of a feeling you have about your work from a thought you have. And here's a kicker, we don't fall out of love with our spouse, we just stop thinking loving thoughts towards them….which makes our feelings change. FEELINGS AREN'T FACTS! We'll really be diving into this one in February inside of Leading Leading on the topic of transformation and unconditional love for ourselves and others and how we get to create as much love in our lives as we want ANYTIME WE WANT! The only way to FEEL more love in your life is to THINK more loving thoughts And in turn, this even affects our PHYSICAL bodies, it's fascinating! Are you blessing or cursing your body with your thoughts about yourself?! But back to feeling bad for saying no to someone. A couple of guidelines I ask myself is “is this my assignment?” If we are here by assignment and in partnership with God in our calling some things will be FOR us and some won't. Sometimes we have to trust that we aren't the one to help them and that someone or something else is. (We might need to give up that hero complex, we can't save them all and that's ok) Also, when I'm saying no to someone what is the YES I AM saying yes to? Celebrate and focus on that! Don't just focus on the no, focus on when you said no it meant you saying YES to something else that is important. For me, I KNOW that I know that I know if I don't have down time and time to process and reflect and have the energy to pour into my family and into Leading Ladies then I'm doing what I've been CALLED to do a disservice. They aren't getting the BEST of me if I exhaust myself with what “isn't my assignment” in this season. I'm not saying use being an introvert or come in agreement with debilitating anxiety and never have a face-to-face conversation with someone…that's a whole different podcast episode. But do take a moment and be aware of your thoughts and feelings….aware that feelings aren't facts and make POWERFUL DECISIONS on purpose. Powerful decisions produce the fruit of refinement and peace…not bitterness and resentment. And as always check in with yourself….and if your motivation to do something is only because you don't want to be perceived or judged a certain way if you don't….probably not the best or healthiest motivation. Blessing to you and blessings to your BEST YES and trusting God with the rest ;) Join me at leadingladiesmovement.com to sign up!

I made a vow to myself that I was going to be my best ‘Yes.” I believed in myself wholeheartedly. ~ Whitney Reynolds How many times have you heard the word “No?” When we're young, we hear ‘No” often from our caregivers as a way to keep us safe. But as we grow, we begin to hear “No” when we're being stopped for different reasons. A project we believe in, something we have our hearts set on to do or obtain, a promotion at a job, so many things can lead us to a ``No,” despite how much we work towards or desire a certain outcome. Whitney Reynolds has heard “No” a lot. But she realized that the only way to achieve her goals and dreams was to be her own best “Yes.” Whitney learned how to “connect the dots” in her life to determine her purpose and create true change in the world. As Whitney tells us, she still heard “No” more times than she could count, but by believing in herself and her mission, she found the energy and strength to keep moving and evolving, eventually creating The Whitney Reynolds Show to inspire others to overcome challenges. “No” doesn't have to be the end of the road for a dream or goal. Here at Brilliantly Resilient, the pandemic served up more “No's” than we could count. Yet, the path to achievement and success is rarely a straight line. When we're willing to change course and connect the dots, as Whitney says, we can move forward and find our own mission, Brilliance, and Resilience. Tune in to hear more of Whitney's wisdom on this episode of the Brilliantly Resilient podcast. Let's be Brilliantly Resilient together! XO, KS & MFB

You're going to want to take notes when our guest today drops one wisdom bomb after another. Tune in and get ready! Episode Introduction: Our guest today joins us to talk about all things mindset. She shares her experience with failure, the power of visualization, how to prioritize, the truth behind feeling scared and so much more. You're going to want to keep coming back to this episode to soak in all the wisdom she has shared with us today. Episode Summary: Lori Gasca walks us through her journey of creating a co-working space for women, what inspired her to build one, the challenges she faced along the way, and also some insider tips on how you can get started in this industry. Main Takeaways: Sometimes your failures end up teaching you way more valuable lessons than your successes. Involve your family in your goals so they can cheer for you as you move forward. Don't focus on doing a lot of things, focus on doing them well. A healthy level of fear is an indicator that you're doing something big. Some form of accountability is really important when it comes to running your business. Things to keep in mind when setting up a co-working space: It needs to be in a location that gets traffic. You need to have flexibility in the structure of your co-working space. Build-in private office areas and conference rooms. Also, have a kitchen and break area. A minimum area to get started would be about 1000-1200 square feet.
