Though she had just finished her freshman year at Samford University, Truett believed in his daughter and handed her the keys. She took a year off from school to run the restaurant and, in that time, hired fellow Samford student, John White, who she married. Throughout their marriage, Trudy and John White have actively sought opportunities to connect with and invest in others' lives. They served for 20 years with the International Mission Board; 10 of those years as missionaries in Brazil where they ultimately started a small church as well as “Lar WinShape,” a home for children in need. The Whites are co-founders of Lifeshape, an organization committed to restoring children at risk, cultivating servant leaders and discipling the nations. They also founded Impact 360 Institute, which offers life-changing experiences that help students live out their faith with confidence. The program includes worldview studies, experiential learning, international travel and leadership training. An attentive wife, mother, grandmother and host, Trudy lives to serve and love others. “There is nothing I enjoy more than spending time with family and friends, and building relationships — both old and new,” she says.3 Key Takeaways: 1.  Learn about the story of the Cathy family and the pivotal moments in the Chick-fil-A journey, including the origin of their famous hamburger buns, pickles, and the role of biblical principles in the company's success.2.

She also discusses how to preserve and transfer family values, the impact of our parents' faith on our own, and finding mentors for your spiritual growth.Quotes From the Episode:“Had it not been for the fire in that second restaurant, he probably never would have invented Chick-Fil-A.”“Success is great, but significance is greater.”“If you help enough other people get what they want in life, you'll eventually get what you want out of life.”“God loves you, trust him.”Resources Mentioned:How Did You Do It, Truett?  by Truett CathyA Quiet Strength  by Trudy Cathy WhiteA Legacy That Lasts  by Trudy Cathy WhiteThe Ruthless Elimination of Hurry by John Mark Comer (Author), John Ortberg (Foreword) Spiritual Leadership by Henry BlackabyConnect with Trudy:Website | Facebook | Instagram

Brenda and Shelley highlight mothers with a special Mother’s Day episode that will touch your heart, encourage you, and make you think. Warm and gracious Southerner Trudy Cathy White, the only daughter of legendary Chick-fil-A founder Truett Cathy, speaks about legacy, faith, intentionality and motherhood. Like her father, Trudy is a beloved leader, communicator and entrepreneur, as well as a best selling author. She’s an ambassador for the family business that is now the fastest-growing restaurant chain in the country founded on biblical principles, and she was also the youngest operator of a Chick-fil-A store at the age of nineteen. Trudy is now on a mission to keep her father’s dreams alive. Trudy speaks about leaving a legacy and what that looks like practically, how faith has shaped her life in both business and her personal life, and how she wants to be an “intentional mother snd grandmother.” In Trudy’s new book “A Quiet Strength” she details the life of her colorful mother, Jeannette M. Cathy, the true heart and soul of the Truett family. Trudy shares, “My mother had a habit of standing at the door as we were heading to school and saying, 'Remember who you are and whose you are.' Those were powerful words! I always felt motherhood was a special calling from the Lord. No one else can play that role for my children. I don’t think there is any greater reward or joy than investing in the lives of my children." Trudy is fueled by her passion to be “intentional” with her influence and she just launched a new inspiring podcast called “Along the Way,” a heartwarming collection of true stories and life lessons from her personal life. Trudy states, “For me, intentionality means clarity about priorities to determine what really matters to you. You need to understand your purpose in life because that will bring clarity to your priorities and you will focus your time on what matters most to you. One of the practical ways I’m intentional about my time is I’ll sit with my calendar and block off time I want to be intentional with my husband, children or grandchildren. I put all of those things in my calendar first.” Trudy is full of unshakeable faith and wisdom that comes from a life well-lived. The founder of two Gospel-centered ministries Impact 360 Institute and Lifeshape, Trudy adds, “The legacy you leave is the life you’re living now. You don’t leave a legacy, you live a legacy.”

Trudy Cathy White’s family is best known for founding Chick-fil-A, but her story is so much more than fast food. She learned how to use Chicken Sandwiches as a tool to connect with people and see lives around the world changed. Her journey takes her from Chicken to Brazil and back!Trudy’ Infohttps://trudycathywhite.com/Trudy’s Podcasthttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/along-the-way-with-trudy-cathy-white/id1559572092AlongTheWay LinksJoin My Email ListJohnAlongTheWay@gmail.comBecome a Patreon https://www.patreon.com/AlongTheWayMore episodes and Social links for AlongTheWayWatch episodes of My TV show RealLife & HopeTodaySupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/AlongTheWay)

On this episode of the podcast with Dr. John Chandler, he discusses the square Lifeshape and how we are all disciples being disciples. The challenge is, who is discipling us and how are we discipling others. The square Lifeshape has been used in business and in leadership for years, but as Dr. Chandler points out, all truth is God's truth. The square is a great way to look at discipleship and simplify the process. Dr. Chandler is a third time guest on the podcast. If you haven't had the opportunity to tune in, we highly suggest you do. You will be glad you did. Dr. Chandler is a husband, father, and grandfather living in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. He has over 35 years of ministry experience. His latest book Uptick: Is a blueprint for finding and forming the next generation of pioneering Kingdom leaders. He is making a huge impact in the lives of ordinary people and has a great understanding of how Lifeshapes can change everything.

Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession- to the praise of his glory.”   Ephesians 1:15–23 “For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.”   Ephesians 2:8–10 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God‘s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.“   Ephesians 2:13 “But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.“   Philippians 1:6 “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”

This week’s episode is titled, “Never Give Up!”—a theme that was instilled in today’s guest by her mother. You may have heard about Truett Cathy, the founder of Chick-fil-A, through his books, interviews, and articles. But you probably didn’t know that Truett attributed much of the success of Chick-fil-A to his wife, Jeanette.I recently had the privilege of having a conversation with Trudy Cathy White, the only daughter of Truett & Jeanette Cathy. Trudy and I will be talking her new book, “A Quiet Strength” a memoir of her mother.Throughout our conversation together, you will hear stories from Trudy about how Chick-fil-A really got started, the leadership principles that propel the organization, and the “secret sauce” behind the success of Chick-fil-A (hint: it’s has nothing to do with chicken), and really the secret to being successful in life.We discuss the influence that we all have in life, how to leave your legacy, and living each day with purpose!Trudy released a new book this spring, “A Quiet Strength: The Life and Legacy of Jeanette M. Cathy”. We also talked about her book, which describes at not only a memoir of her mother, but also ‘shares Jeanette’s often unbelievable misadventures raising three children on the Cathy farm—from beekeeping fiascos to regularly chasing a pony, a parrot, and a monkey around her living room.’ Wow, and I thought I had a fun childhood!Again, our conversation centers around Jeanette Cathy’s theme of “Never Give Up!”. If you struggling to find purpose and meaning in your life, my conversation with Trudy will encourage you to not only find your life’s purpose—because we all have one—but to live it out with passion!So sit back, take a breather from your day and listen to my interview with Trudy Cathy White…you’ll be glad you did!RESOURCES:Trudy Cathy White websiteTrudy's Book, "A Quiet Strength"WinShape FoundationLifeshapeImpact 360 InstituteChick-fil-A

Trudy is the daughter of Truett and Jeannette Cathy, and like her father, she is a beloved leader, communicator, and entrepreneur. When she was just 19 years old, Trudy began working for the family business. She became an operator of a new Chick-fil-A restaurant in Birmingham, Alabama - making her the youngest Operator at that time. Though she had just finished her freshman year at Samford University, Truett believed in his daughter, and handed her the keys. She took a year off from school to run the restaurant and, in that time, hired fellow Samford student, John White. “When he came in, I knew I needed to hire him. It didn’t hurt that he was good looking,” she laughs. And they’ve been together ever since.Throughout their marriage, Trudy and John White have actively sought opportunities to connect with and invest in others’ lives. They served for 20 years with the International Mission Board; 10 of those years as missionaries in Brazil where they focused on church planting and helping children in need. “When I think back on my time as an international missionary,” Trudy explains, “I remember these words my Dad said to me: ‘If you help enough other people get what they want in life you’ll eventually get what you want out of life.’ Today, I know that true happiness is less about me and more about others. That's what brings me real joy.”The Whites are co-founders of Lifeshape and Impact 360 Institute with a focus of cultivating followers of Jesus. Their work in Brazil continues as they invest in the next generation of young adults through Lifeshape Brazil. Together, they are committed to offering life-changing experiences and serving those in need around the world. “I have a deep passion for developing others and creating a safe place for young people to learn and grow,” she says.

Trudy is the daughter of Truett and Jeannette Cathy, and like her father, she is a beloved leader, communicator, and entrepreneur. When she was just 19 years old, Trudy began working for the family business. She became an operator of a new Chick-fil-A restaurant in Birmingham, Alabama - making her the youngest Operator at that time. Though she had just finished her freshman year at Samford University, Truett believed in his daughter, and handed her the keys. She took a year off from school to run the restaurant and, in that time, hired fellow Samford student, John White. “When he came in, I knew I needed to hire him. It didn’t hurt that he was good looking,” she laughs. And they’ve been together ever since.Throughout their marriage, Trudy and John White have actively sought opportunities to connect with and invest in others’ lives. They served for 20 years with the International Mission Board; 10 of those years as missionaries in Brazil where they focused on church planting and helping children in need. “When I think back on my time as an international missionary,” Trudy explains, “I remember these words my Dad said to me: ‘If you help enough other people get what they want in life you’ll eventually get what you want out of life.’ Today, I know that true happiness is less about me and more about others. That's what brings me real joy.”The Whites are co-founders of Lifeshape and Impact 360 Institute with a focus of cultivating followers of Jesus. Their work in Brazil continues as they invest in the next generation of young adults through Lifeshape Brazil. Together, they are committed to offering life-changing experiences and serving those in need around the world. “I have a deep passion for developing others and creating a safe place for young people to learn and grow,” she says. This is evidenced by the fact Trudy served 13 years as the director of WinShape Camps for Girls, a summer camp experience founded by her parents in 1985. Over the years, WinShape Camps has expanded to a total of five overnight locations in north Georgia, with more than 100 day-camp locations across the country.An attentive wife, mother, grandmother and host, Trudy lives to serve and love others. “There is nothing I enjoy more than spending time with family and friends, and building relationships — both old and new,” she says.The Whites have been married for 40 years.

This week on Real Talk with Rachael we’re talking with Trudy Cathy White, the daughter of Chick-fil-A founders S. Truett and Jeannette Cathy. Trudy recently released a book called A Quiet Strength: The Life and Legacy Jeannette M. Cathy, about the important behind the scenes role her mother plays in the Chick-fil-A institution to this day. Trudy is a native Georgian and is the co-founder of Lifeshape and Impact 360 Institute with her husband John. She is a speaker, author, and dedicated wife, along with being a mother to four children and grandmother of fifteen. Today we're talking about:  Remember that being a supportive partner in a marriage or business is very important. “Everything that is seen is the result of the unseen.” Prayer was at the center of their home life, with Jeannette often leading family prayers over their problems. Be careful of putting expectations on other people, especially unspoken expectations. Trudy’s mother was a life long learner and never stopped trying new things, including taking up painting at 65, getting her first computer at 80, and her first iPhone when she was 90! Her mother constantly reminded them of God’s love and providence over their lives, “Remember not only who you are, but whose you are.” “Days are long, but life is short.” Make the most of every opportunity you can. Her mother helped her understand that she could trust God, even when things were going poorly. Learning to never give up but to know when to quit is super important in business and in life.

Episode #67 Trudy White: Finding the Strength to Climb the Mountains in Our Lives In today’s episode, we have none other than Trudy Cathy White to chat with and encourage us! I love having mentor moms on the show. My moms who have “been there and done that”, but let me tell you a little bit about Trudy. Trudy is actually the only daughter of Chick-fil-A founder S. Truett Cathy and his wife Jeannette. Trudy’s life has been marked by mountains, both literally and figuratively. In her new book, Climb Every Mountain, Trudy encourages readers to have great faith no matter the situation they face. Trudy has had a variety of roles within Chick-fil-A throughout the years — and just wait until you hear the funny story she shares about the time she was a restaurant operator (because she happened to meet her husband during that time). She and her husband John have served as missionaries in Brazil and later co-founded LifeShape and Impact 360 Institute. She’s going to share so much about Impact 360, and I can’t wait for you to hear! I’m going to be completely honest, I wasn’t sure what to expect when I first received Trudy’s book, but oh my goodness was I blown away! It is a book that is filled with awesome godly wisdom.
