Podcasts about people you should know

What if the people we often overlook in Scripture are the very ones we're meant to learn the most from? In this new series, People You Should Know, we go beyond Bible stories and into real lives—men and women whose quiet faith and courageous choices changed history. Their stories aren't just ancient—they're a blueprint for how we can live with bold trust, shed the weights holding us back, and run our God-given race with our eyes fixed on Jesus (Hebrews 12:1–2).This week, we begin with someone rarely spotlighted—Jochebed, the mother of Moses. She doesn't get much screen time, but her faith shaped the future. When Pharaoh commanded the death of every Hebrew baby boy, she didn't freeze in fear. She built a basket. With simple materials and deep trust in God, she did what she could and left the rest in His hands. If you've ever felt unseen, underqualified, or uncertain—this message is for you. God isn't looking for perfection. He's looking for the willing. The ones who will say, “I don't have all the answers, but You can have all of me.”In this message we explore:- Why the people in Scripture still matter today- How to lay down what holds you back and live by faith- What “building your basket” looks like in real life- How legacy isn't always loud—but it is lastingHebrews 12:1–2 | Hebrews 11:23–25 | Exodus 1–2 | 1 Corinthians 10:11 | 2 Timothy 1:5You may never lead a movement or build a platform. But you can live a life of faith that shapes someone else's forever.So what basket can you build today?

Hi, I'm Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird here at Little Bird Marketing and I'm a St. Patrick's Day birthday! Everyone wants to party on my birthday and have fun. I am a fun person - very outgoing and funny (if you agree, please call one of my kids and let them know). But people often think I am a people person. I'm really not. I'm a “my kind of people” person. What I mean by that is I like people who are overtly helpful, bring energy into the room, give without thinking of getting and don't take themselves too seriously. I love this industry and have met so many colleagues who have become friends - like really good friends. I had a lot of friends before I got into this industry, but I made room for more. Do you see how much fun I'm having and want to be a part of it? Good news! In this episode I scrap the rules, call my bestie, Sarah Kotva and gossip about people in the industry. It's all good and you'll have a great time. So grab a glass of wine with us and let us introduce you to people you HAVE TO KNOW in market research. Then, go forth and connect with them online. You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll be in on all the jokes! Let's do this!

Hi there, friends and favorites! With March right around the corner, we want to make sure we highlight some of the most amazing, inspiring and influential people from this country's history. Happy Black History Month, ya'll!    Full disclosure, we started this podcast because we felt dumb all the time in regards to our Florida education, and nothing makes us feel dumber than doing a deep dive into the history of the Civil Right's Movement. There is much we never learned in school and as adults and we know it's our responsibility to unlearn what we were taught and then learn the truth about the backbone of the country. Thank you, Google.    In this episode Kelly leads a fun quiz all about some incredible black inventors. She even managed to shout out "Hanging Chads." Impressive, indeed. Lindsey looks to an Oprah list and writes a quiz called "Black People We Should Know" and then your two favorite idiots each feature an unbelievable activist who paved the way to help desegregate this country, one boycott at a time.    We hope this episode inspires you to do more research on your own when it comes to black history and our country's history.

Today's episode features social media expert, small business owner, and nonprofit executive director, Lauren Davis.   Lauren lives close to Chicago in Rockford, Illinois, but works with people around the world to overcome their personal branding discontent and grow their presence so that they can focus on sales, exposure, leadership and community impact.   She was named one of the 20 People You Should Know in 2013 by the Rockford Illinois Chamber of Commerce, one of the Register Star (Gatehouse Media's) “People to Watch” in 2018, a “Face of Tourism” by her city in 2017, an “Up Next” future leader in 2019 by the Register Star (Gatehouse Media) and has received Senate recognition for her passionate dedication to her local business community.   Lauren is the executive director of Winnebago Buy Local, a nonprofit organization whose mission is to connect local businesses together to collaborate and bring the community closer to them, creating raving fans.   Learning Points From This Episode:     What's Working?     Lauren shares that Instagram is up to 1 billion users and 60% of those users make 6-figures and 83% share they are discovering new brands/products/organizations on Instagram. She shares the importance of participating with your audience on every social media platform you choose to use.  Think of comments like a digital handshake – comments show you are an actual human being.     For Instagram, consider posting 4 times a week and 6 to 8 stories a day; for Facebook, post 6 days a week, stories every day.     Share with your audience - What is your organization doing?  Why is it important?  What is your mission?  Do you have any personal stories about how your work is affecting others?  What can you do to create a FOMO (fear of missing out) experience?     Lauren recommends having your hashtag readily available so that when people post they can tag your organization. A hashtag is literally a search tool to see what people are saying about you and your cause. Your hashtag needs to be easy to remember, short if possible, and unique to you.     What's NOT Working (Social Media Misses):     The marketing team/intern will schedule a bunch of posts with CTAs (calls to action) and then never touch it again. Lauren recommends spending at least 30 minutes a day responding and liking other people's pages/posts. Perpetual motion is key. Find a volunteer who is already on social media who can help keep up with it – they also need to understand and value the importance of cultivating relationships. A marketing person who understands the basic level of relationships is worth paying for.   It doesn't matter how many times you are posting if people don't care about the content. The purpose of having an online presence is to build your community and make new connections. This is how you get more contacts. Post stories that inspire as well as highlight what your organization is doing, meaning you're doing the work you say you're doing, which translates into using donor dollars wisely.   Recognize the businesses that support your cause by going above and beyond on social media to recognize people/organizations who have donated. This is a missed opportunity if you don't use social media to recognize your donors.   For more information about Lauren Davis, follow her on instagram at @ldaviscreative or visit laurendaviscreative.com.    For more information about Mary Valloni, visit maryvalloni.com and to download our free Fundraising Freedom Roadmap, go to maryvalloni.com/roadmap.
