#15 How to Host Well 27:17

Hi friends! today's episode is all about hosting well. Hosting can be intimidating and overwhelming at times but I've hosted SO many different events: from birthdays, to bible studies, to bachelorettes and baby showers, to fundraisers for teams - and honestly, by God's grace, I've improved each time I've hosted. Throughout all of these experiences, I've learned a TON when it comes to hosting well. I also believe hospitality is at the heart of who God is. Jesus is all about connection and building relationships with others and we should be as well! When we open up our homes, or offer to host an event, we are showing those around us the characteristics of Christ!…

Welcome back to Staying Savvy! This is our last episode of season 1 where we talk about the 30 things I learned before 30. We split up the 30 things into three categories: relationships/friendships, faith, and life hacks. We hope you enjoy the episode! EVERYTHING is linked below including the 30 things I learned. If I missed anything you want to know about, please dm me! @staying.savvy Links: Instagram, Website, LTK, Blog Hair Care Heatless curls Favorite Gold Pieces ATM: 14k gold bracelet 14k gold earrings 14k gold bracelet 14k gold bracelet 14k gold studs 14k gold studs 14k gold bar single stud Tiffany gold heart necklace Bible Verses: Psalm 27 for when we are afraid Psalm 77 for when we feel God is silent Story of Job Jeremiah 29:11 Therapy for mind, body, and soul -- take care of your body! Psalms for Prayer She Reads Truth Bible Studies Yoga Massages, facials, and therapy Health Podcast for Women: Little Rae of Health Podcast 30 things I learned: Relationships / Friendships You do not have to be friends with people who are mean to you You cannot change a person’s heart —> only God can do that Recognize patterns early on in a relationship (both within yourself and your partner) and ask yourself, “why does this keep happening”? It takes two people to make a relationship / friendship work don’t take 100% of the blame for things not working out Consistency is key - keep showing up It’s okay to let friends go - even when it hurts or even when you don’t want to let go Your circle grows smaller as you get older and that’s okay You can’t take back words already spoken - choose them wisely You do not have to go to church every weekend, but just like a marriage, if you do not come home every night, how will your marriage survive? Going to church is like going home - it’s necessary You are who you spend your time with - who do you want to become? Faith When you are unsure - pray and when you are sure - pray some more. Invite God in God is good even when your circumstances are not God grieves with you when you are in pain —> run to him Being sad / depressed is not un-spiritual - there are psalms that express this very thing, so no, there is nothing wrong with you! Faith is a personal journey but if no one knows about your walk with Christ are you really living in God’s presence? It is better to show up in person (when possible) than sending a bible verse - be the good news in action and not only in words Be on guard when life is good - it is SO easy to think you’ve figured life out Sin hides in secret - be open and honest with a few so that they can hold you accountable Mentors and premarital counseling makes a good marriage so much easier, enjoyable, and achievable Whatever you do in this life - do it with everything you have. Work well not for the approval of others but for their good and the Glory of God Life Hacks Save up to buy real gold jewelry - better to wait and have less than turn green Heatless curls - aka silk sausages- work! Stop killing your hair as soon as possible. Use heat for special occasions but avoid it as much as possible when it comes to day to day use Time > money but both are important. Choose where you spend both wisely Invest in therapy for both the mind and the body You only wear 20% of your wardrobe most months, do a clean out at least once a year Eat more protein (think of food as eating more of something good rather than eating less of food in general) and move your body weekly Oysters are great for your health - especially for women If you can’t travel as much as you want to, read- literature teaches and takes you places Make moments to pause and be grateful for all God has provided If you are unsure about something, put it on hold and leave. Most times you will not go back for it.…
