I’m not their answer man. I'm not their guru. Its a conversation where their energy and my energy are playing with each other and our highest selves are hanging out and sharing with us the wisdoms that our human mind can understand 9:35 - How To Love Your Spouse When You Can’t Stand Them When were getting triggered and angry at our spouse in a way that we can’t really remember the love - it's probably more than just anger. When we get blinded by anger, a lot of times it's really the present moment triggering past moments. It ends up triggering the insecurities that we came to the relationship with and who we thought this person was going to write the wrongs of our past and the pain that we had. The reason we close off our heart and we close off those love feelings is we usually get to this point of I don’t feel safe. 15:33 - How To Navigate Tense Moments in Love Really whats is magic is being able to pause. Being able to give space between the thoughts on your head and the words that come out of your mouth. The feelings in your heart and the words that come out of your mouth. Become a Witness. How much of this is coming from another sentence that’s been operating in your like? Examine. Is there an underlying sentence in my life that this is completing? This always happens and now you’ve done this. Speak Authentically from Yourself rather than using the words that would normally blame someone and put them on trial. Authenticity allows for compassion, but blame is going to put defense up with somebody 23:50 - How To Use Marriage as A Mirror (What this means, and how it can help us grow in the ways that we're here to do) The thing that we think the other person is supposed to be giving to us is usually the thing we need to go on a journey to heal for ourselves What are you expecting him to do for you that you are designed to do for you that you’re not doing? I kept wanting him to change when really it was my blemish People will match the investment that you make in yourself. And people who are health won’t invest more in you than you invest in you 34:34 Cultivating Community It's on our blood, in our DNA that we were meant to do life together. - Jess I think that life finds a way to recreate those things (community) because its within us to be connected. It’s part of the fabric of our divine being, and our human being, to be connected to one another- to seek out life that pulses with ours. Sometimes just the spurring of the ideas (of what you can do to cultivate community) is enough to get people going, and started. The whole mentality of understanding, in the first place, how important it is to know that we belong to each other. - Jess Mentioned Resource: The Turquoise Table, by: Kristen Schell http://www.kristinschell.com/the-turquoise-table/ Connect with Stacey: Website: www.staceyrobbins.com FB: https://www.facebook.com/staceyrobbins/ Insta: @lovestaceyrobbins Twitter: @staceyrobbins   Connect with Jessi: Insta: @jessi.kristine & @sisterwell FB: https://www.facebook.com/sisterwelltogether/   (Music for podcast: www.bensound.com)

Welcome to the Simply Joyful Podcast Episode #008 with Wendy Speake   Life Creative Starts at Home!   Show Notes: KristiClover.com/008   When we become moms it often feels like we lose part of our creative selves. The things we used to enjoy doing become memories. It's easy to start viewing motherhood as a choice that voids all the other things we thought we'd do in life. However, God can use motherhood to refine our gifts and talents and use them right where we are -- at home. Now, by "at home" I'm not just talking to stay-at-home moms. I'm talking to all moms.   God did not make a mistake when He gave you all your incredible creativity and unique gifting. You can still use them. Sometimes it just looks a bit different than we first thought it would look.   On a “Simply” & “Joyful” side note… This whole podcast talks about how to find joy using the creativity that God gives us. Our conversation was so rich and filled with goodness, tips for finding more joy, and how to simplify our big dreams and use our gifting right where God has us -- that we never got to an "official" Simply Joyful moment at the end. So, don't miss this whole episode! It's all in there!   In This Episode In this episode Wendy and I talk about the dreams moms have and how we often feel hindered and burdened with motherhood. We hope you will be encouraged to explore the dreams, talents, and gifts that God has given you -- even while being a mom! I know you are going to be blown away by this encouraging episode with Wendy!   Highlights from This Show… ...(I know I mentioned cake pictures. I'm looking for them. I'll get them on here in a few hours. Sorry for the delay.) Wendy mentions her book Life Creative: Inspiration for Today’s Renaissance Mom, while explaining what a “Renaissance Mom” is.   “I write about about parenting, and I find that it’s still tapping into the same skills of storytelling, but it’s all with the purpose of pointing women to Jesus.” -- Wendy Speake   “God did a good job when He gave you all those other passions and all those other abilities. And so I’m encouraging you to find a way, find a time, find a tribe, find a group of women that can cheer you on in those things that you used to love before you became a mom.” -- Wendy Speake   Wendy shares about her friend, Kristen Schell who used a turquoise table to begin practicing hospitality when she was a mom.   Wendy talks about how the Great Commision starts at home with your kids and that you can use your talents and dreams during your season of motherhood to share God’s love with not only your kids, but with others...even when feeling "Confined, yet unhindered.”   “The dream come true of motherhood intersects every other dream.” — Wendy Speake   “This is the way God planned it, whether it’s jotting down the dreams in your notebook, or pulling out your sewing machine again, or working to invent new recipes, taking pictures, or pulling out the pottery wheel -- or whatever it is, when you’re a mom, all the other dreams start at home, too. It starts here. But it can start." — Wendy Speake   “God made us in His creative image for a reason. And one of those main reasons is because there’s gospel power in creativity. There are so many ways to get creative while 'confined' at home.” — Wendy Speake   “That Great Commission call actually starts at home. The Scripture says first in Jerusalem, and then in Judea and Samaria, and from there, out into the world (Acts 1:8). And Jerusalem is the home for the early church, and then Judea and Samaria are the neighborhoods … and then from there, out into the world.” — Wendy Speake   “It is God’s power that can flow out of our homes.” — Wendy Speake    “I might not want to be auditioning for movies, I might not be throwing extravagant dinner parties, but this is creative me, doing something to show someone they’re loved by God.” — Wendy Speake   “God sometimes uses motherhood to refine us and to show us how else we can be using those gifts to bless others and I think that is something we can get so shortsighted on when we start focusing on what we 'think' God’s plan is.” — Kristi Clover   Wendy answers Kristi’s question on what encouragement she has for moms who don’t know how to guard against the feelings and emotions that make them feel hindered and burdened: talk to your husband, let him know how you’re feeling during a time when communication is devoid of conflict and have some husband-and-wife teamwork for the next project you plan on doing.   Kristi talks about how she was inspired hearing about Joanna Gaines's story in her new book The Magnolia Story.   Wendy’s advice for moms who want to find balance is to redefine “balance.” She uses a life guard analogy to illustrate we need to surround our selves with people who encourage us to go out a little deeper...and sometimes remind us that we need to swim a little closer to shore.   “Balance is looking at the broad picture. If you can take a broader look at your life … then you won’t be so tempted to feel like you’re failing at balance.” — Wendy Speake   “Abundant life is yours for the taking and I really do believe that it starts with embracing where we are today and then inviting God to just inspire us how to live that joyful, abundant life -- and it doesn’t have to be complicated!” — Wendy Speake     Books Mentioned…   Life Creative Triggers Created for Work The Magnolia Story   Scripture Mentioned...   "You will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth." -- Acts 1:8 (ESV) "He lived there two whole years at his own expense, and welcomed all who came to him, proclaiming the kingdom of God and teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness and without hindrance." -- Acts 28:30-31     Please Note...
