In a world where we often get instant feedback and instant information... where we can research anything fairly quickly and get the answers we desire... living with the concept of mystery can be pretty difficult. We can struggle to be okay in situations where the outcome or intentions aren't readily evident, especially when it comes to matters of faith. Things happen all the time that remind us we are not in control; God is. Today's episode helps you to remember that you don't have to know all the answers. Questions are okay. Unknowns grow trust in God's bigger plan. We can rest in the fact He knows, and that's enough. This will encourage you!

Welcome back, connected parents! In this heartfelt episode of Connected Parenting, we're diving into one of the most emotionally challenging moments many parents face; the shift that happens when your child starts to pull away and step into the world of adolescence. I take a close look at this transition, especially between mothers and daughters, when the once chatty, affectionate little girl becomes more withdrawn, independent, and focused on her peers.

In this latest episode of the "Grow Your B2B SaaS Podcast," host Joran sits down with Pablo Asensio, founder of 8% Growth, to discuss how to master product-led growth (PLG) for SaaS companies. Pablo explains that PLG is a strategy that shifts away from traditional methods of relying on sales and marketing to acquire and retain customers. Instead, it positions the product itself as the main driver of growth. This approach allows users to see the product's value before committing financially, making it easier to grow revenue naturally. Key aspects of PLG include self-serve onboarding, viral loops, and in-product upsells. Successful companies like Slack, Dropbox, Calendly, and Miro have effectively used PLG to expand their user base.Key Timecodes(1:19) - Guest Introduction(1:32) - Defining PLG(2:50) - Key Elements of PLG(3:23) - When to Consider PLG(5:29) - Misconceptions About PLG(6:12) - Importance of Organizational Alignment(7:13) - Aligning Stakeholders(8:15) - Four-Step Framework for Alignment(10:37) - Viral Loops and PLG(12:52) - Moments to Ask for Referrals(14:53) - Common Mistakes in PLG(16:12) - Managing Expectations(17:29) - Misconceptions About Implementing PLG(19:06) - Tools and Frameworks for PLG(21:12) - Monetization Strategy(23:31) - Aligning Sales with PLG(25:25) - Best Practices for PLG Implementation(28:12) - Importance of Data(30:27) - When to Add a Sales Component(33:19) - Summarizing PLG Advice(33:54) - Advice for Growing SaaS to 10K MRR(35:29) - Advice for Scaling to 10 Million ARR(38:52) - Episode Summary(39:02) - Contact Information

We lost a sweet family dog very unexpectedly this past week and it got me thinking a lot about life and how perceive our expectations... A lot of tears, frustrations, and other emotions throughout that morning and a lot of my thoughts came back to the expectations or misexpectations we put on life circumstances. Although Stella was older, we always forgot just how old she was because of how young and spry she always SEEMED. And in comparison, the other family dog, Levi—who is 2 years older than her— APPEARED old in every way. We have been expecting his “time” to come for about 2 years now… preparing mentally for it to happen at a moments' notice. For Stella, none of us were expecting she would go first, and none of us were expecting her to go like this. Playful and energetic right until the very end. If anyone had any concerns about it, some of my siblings and I would've made more of an effort to be with her in the last week.  One sibling beating herself up over the fact that this dog was originally hers as a puppy, and she ALMOST came home to my parent's house last night, but had a change of plans, and for that reason didn't get to see her one more time or be there when it happened. How often do we have strong emotions come up in day to day life that wouldn't be as strong if our expectations had just been aligned with the reality? If we had expected to lose a dog in her older age today, after living a beautiful life, we probably would feel peaceful instead of distraught. A tangible example for day to day life… how often do you go into the week thinking “I'm going to eat healthy, hit my macros, and go to the gym X times” but then work gets busy, you forget to track, you miss a workout, and then you think “this sucks” and feel upset? What if you spent some time going into the week planning as best you can for what you KNOW is on your plate— or even just being real with yourself if you have a career that can ramp up or down in busyness in a moment's notice— and set really realistic expectations for the week, even if it's not what you WANT the week to look like?  Would you feel a lot better if you missed the gym? Probably. And just feeling slightly better can be the difference between you adjusting the plan and continuing to move forward vs. giving up on the plan and “starting over next week.” I even felt this with a vacation recently… where I had labeled it as a “vacation” because we were going to Cancun, Mexico, and I had expectations of coming home feeling refreshed and relaxed because that's what usually happens on beach vacations. But the reality is that this was not a vacation, but a time spent working remotely while also being with friends in Mexico outside of working.  This led to resentment and frustration when working, feeling more physically run down because I wasn't resting, and coming home with thoughts like “maybe I just shouldn't have even gone”… yet if I had gone in with the right expectations, I still might've felt tired coming home, but I would've had thoughts like “it's worth it because that was so fun, and how cool that I have a job where I can work remotely in beautiful places?!” At the end of the day, if you're not happy with the reality… it didn't/isn't matching your expectations… then you can either change your expectations or change your reality. But don't sit between the middle indulging in really negative emotions when you are in control of the way you think about your situation. I'm not saying to just NOT feel negative emotions (trust me, I'm feeling them today), but I do think we can also choose to look at the “bright side.” Listen in as we talk through this thought process together and RIP Stella. While I wish I could've hugged you one more time, I'm happy to know that it was quick, that a family member was home, and that you did live such a great life right up to the end. Time Stamps: (3:32) Losing A Family Pet (6:52) Expectations and Our Feelings (8:29) Your Expectations and Your Fitness Goals (12:02) Managing Expectations and Reality (19:42) The Power of Awareness (23:22) Our Team at Vital Spark (26:29) Working On Your Expectations---------------------Follow @vanessagfitness on Instagram for daily fitness tips & motivation. ---------------------Download Our FREE Metabolism-Boosting Workout Program---------------------Join the Women's Metabolism Secrets Facebook Community for 25+ videos teaching you how to start losing fat without hating your life!---------------------Click here to send me a message on Facebook and we'll see how I can help or what best free resources I can share!---------------------Interested in 1-on-1 Coaching with my team of Metabolism & Hormone Experts?

In this candid conversation, Jill and Linda dive deep into what it truly means to practice intentional self-care as busy moms. Moving beyond the superficial "just take a walk" advice, they explore how being purposeful with our self-care can transform everyday moments into meaningful experiences that fill our cups – even when things don't go as planned (like shower time with toddlers!).Key TakeawaysThe Power of Purpose in Self-CareNot all self-care is created equal. While activities like walking or spending time outdoors can be beneficial, setting a clear intention behind these moments – like using a walk to clear your mind or connect with your child – can dramatically enhance their impact on your wellbeing.Finding Self-Care in Unexpected PlacesSelf-care doesn't always need to be flamboyant or done in solitude. Sometimes it's found in multitasking moments, like grounding yourself while doing yard work, or discovering joy in a shared shower with your little ones when your original "me-time" plans get derailed.The Connection FactorFor many moms, meaningful connection is a vital form of self-care. Whether it's a half-hour chat with a friend or participating in a mastermind group, these social interactions can revitalize us in unique ways that complement our solo self-care practices.Managing Expectations vs. Setting IntentionsWhile having intentions for your self-care is valuable, setting rigid expectations about how you'll feel afterward can lead to disappointment. The key is to remain flexible and open to the benefits that emerge naturally from your self-care practices.Your Self-Care Journey ContinuesRemember, your self-care journey is uniquely yours – what works for someone else might not work for you, and that's perfectly okay. As you explore different ways to incorporate intentional self-care into your life, stay curious about what truly fills your cup and be gentle with yourself when things don't go as planned.Have questions about self-care or want to share your own experiences? We'd love to hear from you! Send us your questions and insights for our upcoming 100th episode celebration. Your story might be exactly what another mom needs to hear.Connect with us:Email your questions for our 100th episode to muckedupyourselfcare@gmail.comJoin the conversation about what intentional self-care means to you.You can also find Jill on Instagram @mamaoutspoken and https://www.mamaoutspoken.com/ and Linda @hellolindabonney or https://www.lindabonney.com.Until next week – we hope you can unstuck your muck!

At that time, when David saw that the Lord had answered him on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite, he offered sacrifices there. The tabernacle of the Lord, which Moses had made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt offering were at that time on the high place at Gibeon. But David could not go before it to inquire of God, because he was afraid of the sword of the angel of the Lord. Then David said, “Here shall be the house of the Lord God and here the altar of burnt offering for Israel.”   Exodus 16:4 – “Then the LORD said to Moses, ‘I will rain down bread from heaven for you. The people are to go out each day and gather enough for that day. In this way I will test them and see whether they will follow my instructions.'”   Mark 2:17 – “On hearing this, Jesus said to them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”   John 6:35 – “Then Jesus declared, ‘I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.'”   2 Corinthians 12:9 – “But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses so that Christ's power may rest on me.”

Today's episode is angled to be about parenting and motherhood but really can be applied to all facets of life. We discuss the seemingly ominous concept of pivoting from our original plan - whether that be how or where your child sleeps, using a pacifier, or screen time habits to name a few. Adapting and changing course is an inescapable part of raising children, and we've demonized it as this thing that is SO hard - so much so that you should NEVER start off on the quote-unquote "wrong" side of a habit in the first place. We talk about mental resiliency and acceptance of what IS - the reality before us - with the particular child we have, in the particular circumstance of our life - and how we have to adapt to that in the moment. Because if we don't, we increase our suffering - and oftentimes setting our expectations right will help us to either avoid or move through the micro griefs that come with ordinary aspects of parenting.
