What being led by the Holy Spirit in decision-making looks like. What to do when wrestling with any decision--big or small. Emily's special technique and response about list-taking.

Welcome back to season two of the Refine and Restore Podcast! Today I'm kicking off the New Year with a shift in perspective when it comes to goal-setting and how I do my goal-setting efficiently and effectively. But first I paint a picture of what goal setting typically looks like for most people: frustrating, hard, and most wanting to give up after a month. However, let me teach you the vital component to not giving up on your goals and why choosing a word for the year may be exactly what you need.

I'm THRILLED to bring you into the conversation I had with my guest Allie Casazza. Allie is the host of The Purpose Show and is the creator of Your Uncluttered Home - an online decluttering course that earned her national attention for her philosophy of simple motherhood. Her business is built on minimalism and how we can all live a more purposeful life if we cut out all of the stuff to create space for enjoying the life we’re living! She has been featured on The Today Show, Good Morning America, The Huffington Post and even ABC News. Everyone has really taken to her realistic, doable mom-friendly, philosophy of minimalism and simplified living! In this episode we chat about: -Her story of going from overwhelmed mom to living a simpler life to give her freedom to actually live her life. -How you can be a thriving CEO, homeschooling mom of four, have a loving marriage, and not be completely exhausted, overwhelmed and going crazy with how messy the house is. -The first thing you need to do before you start decluttering your home. -How living more minimalistic or simple is actually Biblical. -Why stripping away the stuff in our life might actually allow us to do more for God.

Have you ever felt stuck and didn't see any other options for another way out? My husband and I were there not too long ago and we wanted to invite you into our journey and story over the past 6 months of why he quit his job without another one in sight and the path its taken us on which involves partnering on a dream we never, ever saw coming. In this episode, me and my husband share candidly about the struggles we were facing and the decisions we made which changed the trajectory of our life. Sometimes you have to take that leap of faith to experience all that God has for you. The most difficult part though is the leap, because often times you don't see where you're going or what's going to happen but have a deeper conviction of something more...that God is leading and that's all that matters.

Welcome to Episode 06 of the Refine and Restore Podcast. Today Rachel discusses the struggle with body image, especially when you don't really think you have a problem with it. Many women flirt on the tip of the line with this struggle or maybe have even crossed it a time or two, but are in denial that it's still a problem in their life. Specifically when it comes to the mindset we may still have and the lies it keeps telling us about our bodies. Rachel currently shares how she is preaching to herself on this one and what the truths are when it comes to overcoming this issue.

I think we've all experienced the pain of rejection from friends. The sticky and hard moments that come up when navigating this issue. I candidly share in this podcast episode (#05) about a severed friendship but what God taught me and is continuing to teach me through the many broken friendships I've experienced. I also share a few fascinating psychological insights that completely changed how I establish friendships, especially in this social media world where everyone's life is on display. Specifically I answer the questions: -How many friendships can you really have? -Does God even want me to have friends? -Is there something wrong with me? -Why keep investing into making friendships when they keep falling apart? I think you will be surprised about what you’ll discover in today’s episode… Enjoying the Refine and Restore Podcast with Rachel Swanson? Leave a review! Thank you!

Rachel C Swanson is the author of the Big and Little Coloring Devotional and is a mom of three. She joins us today to help us understand what sin is and how to raise kids who confess sin and ask forgiveness quickly. I love how this conversation so simply leads into a conversation about the Gospel and our need for rescue from sin that can only be done through a relationship with Jesus, who died on the cross and rose again, paying the penalty for sin.

Episode #031 with Rachel Swanson Faith Over Fear: Overcoming Anxiety Head to KristiClover.com/031 to see all the Show Notes & Awesome Quotes that we collected for you! Today on the podcast, I am so excited to have my friend, Rachel Swanson, with me. We're chatting about overcoming anxiety and how understanding God's character can help you to overcome it. As moms I know that it's very common to struggle with fear. With all the bad things going on in the world, it’s too easy to let that fear creep in—I know it is for me. With shootings, hurricanes, and natural disasters going on, my first response after getting the tragic news is to put myself in their shoes and wonder what I would do to protect my kids in those situations. Then I worry and worry! Sometimes there is no good answer, but that's usually when the fear kicks in. The reality is that I know I have to trust God and really put my trust in Him. So, that’s what the heart of our talk about is today — you're going to love it! Rachel’s new book is unique. It is a devotional coloring book called Big and Little Coloring Devotional. It’s really cool. My girls and I have really been enjoying it. Each page has a little devotional — one for mom (or dad) and one for your child. My only dilemma is that I’m trying to color with BOTH my girls. I cannot wait for you to hear this episode!
