Spinning Plates Podcast: Recent Episodes
Salina Johnson
Hi, Salina here. My heart is to help busy people go from feeling overwhelmed to finding true, deep down JOY. Some days we nail it and some days we’re not exactly sure what just happened. Am I right or am I right? Come live life with me. Let me be your daily pep talk, cheerleader, friend and confidant! God has a perfect plan for you; a design specific to just you. I assure you though, it does not include living tired and discontent. I know it's for you to live fully into who you're meant to be! So, let's spin the plates together with JOY and purpose.
Creating space is not an easy task for some of us. I'm praying in this meditation that I help us do just that. Let's create some space for Him to be seen and felt in our lives today.
I love making new friends! Jennifer was a delight to chat with. She dropped so many nuggets of wisdom. Enjoy!

I love a good God story! This was such a sweet episode celebrating just that. God has brought two women together to take them on an adventure for such a time as this. I hope you enjoy this delightful conversation and real-life talk about leaning into God's leading, trusting Him to show you the way, and letting go of unknowns to shine for Him.
Elise is a dancer, singer/songwriter, and photographer. She has a passion for using her God-given talents to express her faith and identity.
Annabelle is passionate for sharing God’s love and an aspiring multifaceted artist. She has just completed high school and IB program (International Bachelorette) and is excited for all the adventures in store for her.
I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did. It brought me joy to watch these ladies share their hearts and dreams with the world.
If you feel called to show them support on their mission trip with Envision this year, please contact them directly:

"The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.” - Ex 14:14
He is capable. He is strong. He is bigger than our fears. He is all-knowing. He is our defender. He cannot lose the battle. He already stands victorious.
So that thing you're feeling lost in or that battle you feel you need to fight, I encourage you in this meditation to let Him fight for you. You need only to be still.

As soon as God gave me the idea to do this series, I wished this influencer were here for me to interview him in person. Roland Classen left a mark on this world and in the lives of so many of us. He always pointed us to Jesus and did it with grace, conviction, humor and gentleness of spirit. I am forever a different person for having the privilege of knowing and being taught by him and I know I'm not alone in this. To have known Roland, was to be near Jesus. Simple as that. He was something special. Since I couldn't get him on the podcast, I did the next best thing and dug up one of his sermons from 2002. My prayer is that in this episode, you experience truth and God's love.
Thank you, Roland, for being our shepherd and leader for so long. Your legacy lives on in the lives of those who knew you. This episode is dedicated to you and your family.
We got my mom back on the pod! So often you hear me quote her and today you get to hear the live version of her love and wisdom. She's been such a huge influence in my life and the biggest inspiration for me in how to live authentic and imperfect (especially as a parent). She shows me the process of growing and learning and she is a constant source of grace and love for us. We talk about anxiety, God's redemptive power, and transformation. Hope you enjoy our chat. This is what it's like to sit at her kitchen table with cup of tea. It makes me happy.
Another moment to breathe and reset. This one we focus on finding our strength in Him and not in our own ability. He is capable. He is strong. He is bigger than anything thrown our way.
"I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love," Eph 3:16-17
I feel like this has been a long time coming! When God gave me the idea to do a series on people who have molded me, and I lean on for wisdom and speaking Truth, I knew I needed to have a chat with my sweet friend.
Debbi Hawney is a lover of Jesus, wife to Barry, and mother of two boys and bonus daughters (in law). She is also a proud "Mimi" to her grandchildren. Debbi has worked in ministry in various ways for decades, always with a heart for women falling in love with God's grace and tenderness. Currently, she resides in Nebraska with her family, leaning into God's love and care as he continues to reveal to her what he has in store for this season of life.
God is so good to bring Debbi not only into my life, but into the lives of so many. If you know our Deb, you know her love language is coffee with friends. This chat is us having coffee together. Pull up a seat and join us!
Hi, this one is SUPER fast and hopefully effective for you. I was having a rough day when I recorded and thought "well, this is real life" so I decided to record my live process when I'm overwhelmed. Sometimes it just takes a minute. Enjoy!
Every once in a while, y'all will tell me when there's someone out here in this space that I need to be friends with. It always brings me joy when it's someone I'm so aligned with like today's guest. I think it's safe to say she is my people and, if you're listening to the pod or following me, she's definitely your people, too. Taneshia Yerby is not only an influencer of mine, but of so many following her on Instagram @ceoforwomen.
Taneshia is a devoted wife and mother of two girls, and the founder of the Christian Entrepreneur Organization (CEO) for Women. Taneshia established CEO in 2018 with the goal of supporting aspiring Christian entrepreneurs. Having experienced the challenges of starting her own passion projects, she understands the difficulties new entrepreneurs face. As a result, she launched CEO to provide women with the encouragement and motivation they need to persevere. Since its inception, CEO has sold thousands of products worldwide and has helped countless women turn their business ideas into reality. Taneshia's mission is simple: to empower women to do business with God at the forefront."
If you follow @ceoforwomen on Instagram, you already know how God is using her as an influencer. If you haven't followed her yet, do so right now. You won't regret it.
Enjoy our chat!
Spinning Plates meditates and you're welcome. I am loving doing these again. This one is for the busy person who can't sit still, but feeling like they need to get off the merry-go-round. Anyone feel that way?! Enjoy.
I LOVED this discussion. We are blessed to have Steve Croyle as our worship director at church. He is truly someone who influences me in my walk with the Lord. I love hearing his thoughts and musings on God's character and this episode is not short on either. I knew it would be a great discussion and I was right!
Steve is a learner of Jesus Christ, husband to Andrea, father to Elijah and Elise, and pastor of worship and adult discipleship to the congregation at Mountain View Community Church in Snohomish, WA. He worked as a recording artist in the Christian music industry with the band FFH in the late 90’s before moving from Nashville, TN back to his rural hometown area of Huntingdon, PA, where he worked as director of youth ministries for about 14 years, the latter 12 of which were at Huntingdon Christian and Missionary Alliance. In 2014, he and his family, with their tetherball-loving rat terrier named Maestro, headed west to grow and serve alongside the wonderful community of people at MVCC. Steve is an introverted internal processor and an avid cyclist, enjoying the headspace afforded by many hours alone in the saddle.
We talked so much about introvert vs. extrovert and how we each worship and live life with Jesus in different ways. Hope you enjoy this as much as I did.
Steve's email is steve@mvccweb.org if you want to drop him a line.
Another meditation for you. Meditating on His Grace and love. You are only to receive. Enjoy!
I love that we finally got Naudia on the pod! She is a constant source of inspiration and joy in my life.
Naudia Bosch is a high school teacher who strives to positively influence and add value to the lives of her students, family, and all she encounters. She not only teachers her students on leadership and personal growth, but also serves her Grit and Grace community partnering with them to form healthy living habits. Naudia is making a difference in this world and for that reason is a massive influence in my life.
Enjoy the episode. If you do, we have plans for a group in May together working on mindset and movement and would love to invite you to join us!

Did you know that God gave us breath and we can use it as a tool to help us? It's true!
Feeling anxious? Breathe
Feeling exhausted? Breathe
Feeling overwhelmed? Breathe
In today's meditation, we dig into our breath and spend some time connecting mind/body/soul.
Meet Pastor Brian Hebert, a beacon of light in our community and a profound influencer in my life. Brian's wisdom and guidance have touched countless lives, including mine. His steadfast faith, unwavering commitment to God's word, and Christ-centered teaching point others to Jesus.
Brian's love for diverse cultures and flavors led him to run a food blog focused on Houston's international foods. With a rich tapestry of experiences, he has traveled to over 50 countries and lived overseas several times, adding depth to his understanding of the world and its people.
Two years ago, Pastor Brian, his wife Christy, and their five children took a leap of faith and moved to the Snohomish area, where they have found a true sense of home and community. This bold move reflects their adventurous spirit and deep-rooted belief in following where God leads them.
In this episode, we dive deep into Pastor Brian's journey, exploring the moments that shaped his faith and leadership. From his early days in ministry to the challenges he's faced, Pastor Brian shares candidly, offering insights that inspire and uplift.
This is more than a conversation; it's a testament to the power of faith, the strength of community, and the beauty of a life lived in service to others.
To find the Gospel at Work series you hear us discussing go to MVCC online.
Ever let your thoughts get the best of you? Or maybe run on their own? Today we will spend some time pushing the reset button and capturing our thoughts. It's not just about capturing though, it's about reflecting on what is good, pure, true (Phil 4:8).
Enjoy!
Friends, this is one near and dear to my heart and soul. If you know my grams, you know how special she is. She has been a massive influence in my life and those who know her. A couple years back, I got to steal grams at a women's retreat and interview her. Little did I know that down the road I'd be able to plug it into this special series. I could think of no better person to kick off the interviews.This episode was sweet to me. I hope this episode is for you, too.
Spinning Plates Meditates is baaaaaaaaack! I needed this as much as anyone else. Reminding yourself that amidst the hustle and bustle of our busy lives, Jesus is waiting for you. He's waiting for you to rest in Him. He's waiting for you to slow down. He's waiting for you to breathe in His presence and breathe out His grace.
Enjoy this meditation. I know you'll love it.
This has been a labor of love and I'm so happy to see it out in the world. God gave me a little idea a few months back and I heard him loud and clear. Let's do a series on people who have been influences on me and others. I wasn't sure who would be in the series, but as it's taken form, it's been incredibly sweet to be a part of. He has been at work here and I know it's for a purpose. Who are your influencers? Over the next 8 weeks, you'll get to meet some of mine.
Enjoy!

This one is my little pep talk for those of you feeling "stuck". I'm here to be that outside voice reminding you... YOU... CAN... CHANGE.
It may not feel like it everyday. It may not look like it everyday. You may not even want to everyday. But it's happening if you're putting in the work.
Lean in, friend. It's worth it.
This was such a beautiful conversation. I love that my take-a-way was to pause and ask people more questions. Getting to know Laycee's story reminded me that everyone has a story. Laycee's is one of resilience and hope.

I love being here in this space. I love encouraging and being encouraged. I love feeling free to share my heart on a lot of subjects. I love knowing that God has led me here one step at a time. Did you know that I used to be TERRIFIED to speak about my real walk when I first started posting? Did you know that I would hold back on sharing when I was concerned about what some might think? Well, it's true. Often I'll get the sweetest comments about how bold I am or how they love how comfortable I am to talk about my faith. Those comments make me smile because I know how far the Lord and I have come in this area. This episode is walking you through my process over the past few years in hopes of encouraging someone else to step out in faith and continue to take one step at a time. It could change a life to know Jesus. I'm here for it!

Hope you enjoy!
There's a vibe right now and I'm in it with you. So much coming at us and so much going on. This episode is a reminder to create margin in your life to breathe, hear from God, and rest. I give some tactical tips on what works for me. Hope they work for you!
Are you ever faced with a problem, concern, scenario that feels too big? Too much? How will it work out? How will it be resolved? And you loop...fixated on the outcome and the issue? Me, too. This episode is how I process those moments, big and small. I talk all about my zoom out method and how it usually snaps me out of it. God is good and in sharing some of my stories in this episode, it helped me remember how far we've come. Praying this serves your heart. Thanks for listening!
This episode is less than 5 minutes. I wanted something short and bite-size. We have so much coming at us and so many ways in which we are pulled daily. This is your reminder that there is nothing you CAN or NEED to do to receive the love and grace of your God. Listen in and sit in it. Happy Valentines Day!
If you remember Tiffany from a few years ago, yes, it's the same one! We have a repeat guest, and it was such a fun conversation. We talk parenting, being a woman in real life, caring for those around us and living out God's purpose.

Tiffany’s desire is for you, as a mom, to become who God has called you to be! She does this by helping you discover how God and the Holy Spirit can empower your motherhood! Tiffany believes that when a mom is empowered by the Holy Spirit, the entire family changes!

If you like hearing me cry, this episode is for you. But seriously, this is a good one. We talk all things servant's heart and showing up in this world in beautiful and genuine ways. I do have a moment of gratitude halfway through thinking of those special people in my life that have served me. Fitting since today is my mama's birthday. I want to be the type of person that serves from a place of joy and authenticity and my prayer is this episode inspires someone else to do the same. Enjoy!
Do you ever feel like you're at the mercy of all the things coming at you? Too fast, too furious, overwhelming? It's easy in those times to simply become a victim to randomness, letting life lead us instead of us leading life. Your God wants you to be engaged in the process and give it your best. This episode we unpack how to do just that and how to feel less like a victim and more of a warrior. Let's go!
I give hands on tips in this one and here are the links mentioned:

Do you ever have the thought? "I guess I don't really have much of a story to tell." or "Man, that person has so much more to share than me." If so, this is your episode. I spent years with those thoughts or thinking no one needs to hear my story, it's not that great. I was wrong. This is the beauty of being vulnerable enough to share. God can use it. It's not about us. It's about him. I hope this message meets you where you're at.
This was such a beautiful conversation about resilience and healing.
Holly is a UW graduate, TBI Survivor and founder of Neuro Wellness Community, where connections empower resilience. Her own journey through adversity, surviving a severe Traumatic Brain Injury and two week coma and the lifetime recovery through trauma and healing led her to see the impact the incredible resources surrounding her had on her life. Through her studies in Community Psychology it was confirmed that there was a link between brain health and community support. This launched her dream to share resources and empower others towards resilience. She founded Resilience Resourcing in 2019 which is now, Neuro Wellness Community. She hosts the Resilience Resourcing Podcast where she's had the honor of spotlighting stories of resilience from celebrities in film and music, to national spokeswomen, doctors and all in between who've overcome adversity in reaching for their dreams, sharing their "real on their way to resilience". In addition, Neuro Wellness Community holds annual Virtual Panels with leading experts to empower others through education on topics relating to resilience and holistic brain health. Finally, Neuro Wellness Community organizes and hosts retreats for connection and empowering experiences with key note speakers, music, a network of holistic therapeutic modalities, food and fun! The first retreat was held in 2019 and the second is in the works, stay tuned!
Holly loves Jesus and knows without His provision in her life, she would not be where she is today and firmly believes everyone can have Jesus and a therapist too! She is a strong advocate for mental health which is truly holistic brain health and works everyday to break down barriers by empowering others towards resilience!

In this episode, we dive into the powerful concept of waiting, inspired by 2 Peter 3:9. Join me as we explore how God's timing is always perfect, and in the midst of our waiting, He's actively working. But here's the beautiful twist: we can partner with Him, taking intentional steps and actions during the waiting season. It's not just idle time; it's a period of purposeful collaboration with the Almighty. Tune in for inspiring stories, practical tips, and the reassurance that your waiting has purpose and power. Let's discover together how, when we're waiting, He's working, and there's extraordinary strength in that partnership.
And closing out this series....E is for Energy. Did you know you get to pick how you show up? No one can do that for you and no one can take your energy away from you. Did you, also, know that you can have positive energy and draining energy? It's true. Here's the deal, when you enter into a moment of P.A.U.S.E. because you're overwhelmed with life or teetering on the brink of burnout, you are probably entering with that draining energy, frustrated energy, negative energy....BUT when you come out of a moment of P.A.U.S.E. you should be exiting different. You should hold yourself different. You should be shining brighter. You should feel better. In this episode I talk all about changing our energy and ways to tactically do so. I've loved this series and I'm grateful for all that have given it a listen. Please remember to subscribe to the pod wherever you listen, so you never miss an episode. And if you like what you hear, please rate and review!
I feel like this might be the harder part for some of you, but I know this much to be true. Growth is on the other side of hard things. Freedom is on the other side of obedience. Peace is on the other side of boundaries. Clarity is on the other side of communication. Take the time to do this part. Being clear with yourself and others about what your "plan" is might be the thing that saves a relationship or your sanity. It's that critical! Hope this episode serves you well.
This might be my favorite part. It's time to take ALL those thoughts (sometimes random ones) rolling around in your head and make some sense of it. This is what I like to call my ultimate brain dump!!! Hope you give this one a good listen. I have a freebie to give you, too, so listen good!

Mkay....this one might hit home for a few of us. Friend, here me well. You do NOT have that much control. Not really. But in the moment when we're feeling overwhelmed, tired, frustrated and out of control the most important thing after pausing and praying is reminding ourselves of all the things we do have control over and how flipping the script can help us not only change our reactions and actions but our lives. Let's dig in!
Some of you have heard all about the tool that I use to live life fully and create presence and peace in the middle of chaos. The Power of PAUSE series is finally here. First up P! P is for pause (literally push pause on the moment) and pray. In this episode, I'll take you through a breathing exercise and my process for slowing down when I want to speed up and power through. I hope you get something you can take away from this episode. Enjoy!
Happy New Year! I can't believe it's 2024, but here it is. In this episode, we talk all things planning for the year and goal setting. I'll share my word of the year and some hot tips on how to set yourself up for success. I'm so grateful for all of you sharing this space with me. Let's make this our best year yet.

I've been waiting impatiently for this episode to make its way into the world. Elle has a beautiful way of sharing her heart and story. This episode is all about mental health and pulling back the veil on what it looks like to do the work and be a work in progress. I'm grateful my sweet friend felt brave to share and leaned into the hard. The world is a better place with her in it.Elle Levins is the founder and creator behind Beyond the Knots, a business dedicated to sharing the timeless and beautiful art of macrame for others to enjoy. What originally started as an outlet and a form of coping through the struggles of mental health that Elle faces day-to-day, she found a new perspective that helped begin her healing. With each piece she made she found purpose and a way to share her passion of being there for others who battle the stigma that surrounds mental health. We all have “knots” in our lives that we try to untangle or ignore. Overtime they only get worse. Choosing to accept those knots for what they are; a part of you, we can begin to find that together they can form into something truly beautiful.Elle’s goal is simple, she wants to have a positive impact on everyone she meets through her art- whether that be a changed heart, or a simple smile. Her pieces are a little reminder that there is a lot of light for us, if we can only look Beyond the Knots.”In this episode, she talks about music as a tool for working through moments of struggle. Here's one of her playlists on Spotify. I've been listening and love it!

In this episode we're going dig into the physical and emotional cues that we are in need of a PAUSE. It's one thing to apply the tool of PAUSing, but it's a completely different beast to know WHEN. We are all made different. We have different backgrounds, triggers, bandwidth. So, let's chat about knowing ourselves and our personal signs that we need to pump the breaks and reset. Hope this episode serves you!
Ever feel like it’s all happening too fast, t list is getting too long and you have no control? Does your chest get tight and your mind start to swirl? Do you ever feel overwhelmed by overwhelm? Then this is for you. I developed a process over the past several years, that has proven to work for me time and time again. I’m going to say every time as a matter of fact. God gave me a vision this year of sharing the method with others in hopes of helping someone find some peace and relief in moments of chaos. This will be a series on the Power of PAUSE. I hope you take the ride with us.
Ever feel like you have so much coming at you that you don’t know where to start so you don’t do anything!? Mkay, let’s chat.

She shares the path one step in front of the other has taken her on and how she has surprised even herself in the process. As she says in episode, "It's better to start somewhere than go nowhere." Mic drop!Sarah studied Fashion Design at the Fashion Institute for Design & Merchandising in Southern California. She immediately jumped into the design industry at Eddie Bauer followed by Tommy Bahama, Zumiez, Kische and Brooks Sports.

This is your reminder that we're okay. We're doing the things and we aren't totally failing. Take this 5 minutes with me to reminder yourself. You're doing a good job and you're gonna make it through.
God made you special. For something super specific. And He won’t be able to use you fully if you don’t lean into that person He made you to be.
We're back! This is the wrap up of my most vulnerable episode(s) yet. When we last left the conversation, Rachel asked me what I found to work the best for my conditions. And so the rest of this episode is all about solutions. She has some show and tell and special tips for not just me, but for anyone in need of the help.

Ever grateful for her encouragement and genuine spirit. She's helped me see that I still have work to do and I'm here for it.
Reminder Ep 86 is the first part to this. Go back and start there if you haven't already!
Disclaimer: This conversation is not for little ears!
You know how I'm always encouraging to "do it scared."? Well, here I am doing it scared. This episode is about 24 years in the making. It's personal and vulnerable and still a work in process, but I'm feeling called to share my story. Not for me, but for His glory. Not for me, but for that woman that needs to hear it. Not for me, but for the sake of those who don't have any idea what to do next.In this episode, we will talk all things pelvic health. I have specific conditions that we spend time digging in to, but we spend a great deal of time talking about women's health and pelvic health as a whole. I couldn't have picked a better person to talk it out with. If you've ever wanted to peel back the curtain on what goes on when you spend time with a doctor talking about these very personal issues, this episode is for you. This conversation is everything I dreamt it would be...and more!Dr. Rachel Jalanivich is approachable, down to earth, and makes you feel safe to talk about things we wouldn't normally feel comfortable talking about. This is my longest interview ever and, honestly, we could have kept going. She is amazing! Because of the length, we are splitting it into 2 parts. This first episode is sharing both of our stories that led us to this chat. The second episode is all about solutions offered and ideas for a patient to start their journey.Rachel and I are here to tell you. You're not alone. You're not broken.The best decision I ever made in regard to my journey with this is to open up to a safe person all those years ago. It was just the beginning. My prayer is that today is the beginning for someone else. This episode is dedicated to those who have held my hand along this path. My husband, my mother, my dearest friends. You've seen me through this and continue to pray for us. I stand here today stronger than ever and empowered to continue moving forward. God is good!There is reference to us putting this on YouTube.

I spent so many years thinking I had to work to embody love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. I thought it was all up to me and that if those things weren't present in my life, then I must be doing something wrong. Lies. In this episode, I give you what I've found to actually be true. God is good and it's by his grace that I have this understanding today. Hope this meets someone where they are at today.xoxo

In this episode, I share my thoughts on the phrase "manifestation" which is something we hear tossed around a lot these days. I don't subscribe to the notion that dreaming it up and throwing it out into the universe is what we are called to do. Hope you give this very candid episode a listen. My heart wants you to know that He has a calling and purpose for your life. He wants the desires of your heart to be in line with what He made you for. He wants you and the world for that matter to realize your full potential. What if whatever you're trying to "manifest" isn't even what you were made to do? Is your vision for this year or your future in line with His vision for you?--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Take time to reset with this meditation. Grateful for opportunities to come back to this place of rest.
The January before the pandemic I had the honor of speaking to my church community. Little did we know a couple months later this subject would be even more applicable. Lol, we didn’t even know I’d have a podcast. If you crave control. If the unknown makes you uncomfortable. If you have ever wrestled with God. This episode is for you. I hope this brings you a new perspective.--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

I love it when real-life friends come on the pod with me. Grateful for the time Christie gave to us and the beautiful conversation we had. This episode is all about creating a community that you can lean into and not being afraid to say yes to that invite. Can't wait for you all hear from her.
Christie is a wife of 9 years to her hubby Craig; she is a mom of two busy cuties; Kylie is 7 and Kayson is 2 1/2. She is strong in her faith and truly believes life is about the lessons God is teaching us...allowing us to step into our greatness if we lean into the growth He offers us. She has built an incredible business and team, and most importantly, COMMUNITY, which focuses on helping others look and feel their best. She has become passionate about learning and providing value to her clients and team every day. She prides herself on being a connector, and giving, especially moms, a place to be seen, heard, and thrive! It's amazing what happens when you speak life and love over others and give them a place to grow. Christie has built a team to the Vice President level of her business and has earned numerous awards and trips, but to her, though all that is nice...the best part is creating an example for her kids and even her friends, to dream so big it makes your tummy flip. After all, it costs no more to dream big than to dream small. So why not go for it! We only have this one life!

Do you have a life verse? One that you turn to and gets you through? My life verse is Romans 12:12, "Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer." I feel like anything I'm in the middle of or looking forward to or nervous about, this is what I can control. In this episode I unpack this verse a little bit and encourage you to have your own that you lean on. xoxo

This one is all about de-stressing, checking in and taking inventory in how you’re feeling. Friend, we all get to that place where we just need to slow down and check in. Let’s do it together.

She has such a vulnerable spirit and beautiful way of framing this sometimes tough conversation. Jessica is a boundary and self-acceptance coach.

This was such a fun episode. My friend, Kariann, and I have bonded during the pandemic finding ourselves on Instagram and in Clubhouse together. Thankful for her friendship.

"Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." Phil 4:8
Do you ever have trouble capturing your thoughts? Do you sometimes feel like it's jumbled and messy and hard to think about the things God calls us to? This episode is for you. I do this practice when I'm feeling anxious about my thoughts and need help in slowing down long enough to capture them.
I hope this leaves you feeling settled and at peace. I know it does me.
Today's meditation you can do over and over whenever you need to be reminded of God's presence. This episode invites Him in to mind, body and soul to help us feel equipped to face the day. He is ever present, but do we stop and feel Him? I encourage you to set time aside to do this. I know after recording, I felt like I was calmer and at peace.

Well, the announcement and next stage of the podcast is here. I'm just as shocked as you may be, but God has a way of continually surprising me. This has been something I've felt Him nudging me to do for quite a while and, to be honest, didn't do it simply out of fear of looking silly. Well, that's just not a good enough reason any more. So, with that I present to you Spinning Plates Meditates, a spin off from Spinning Plates Podcast. Meditation is something I've been able to use as a tool in my own life the past couple of years. It's helped me calm anxiety, remain focused, feel connected to myself, be a better parent and wife, relief stress, and simply declutter my very busy brain. It can, also, be overwhelming if you have a perception of it like I did for so long. I was always afraid I was "doing it wrong" or "could never sit still that long". Reality is, though, that you can't mess up meditation. You can't even do it wrong. It's creating a space for you throughout your day to just be and just breathe. I want to show you how you can incorporate faith into meditation. I want to lead you through some of the tools and exercises that I turn to when I'm feeling overwhelmed. I want to help you find ways to feel connected safe that it's not weird. I'm on the journey with you. Look for episodes to be sprinkled throughout. How often, yet to be determined. But this is our start. Ready or not, let's meditate.

My friend, Wynter, and I got into some real meat in this episode. We talked about creating sustainable habits, taking baby steps, and incorporating our faith into our fitness journeys. It was such a great chat and one that I feel super grateful to have been a part of. Wynter created She is Lifted Up to help women feel like they belong in the health and fitness space and to lift them up in the process. She is passionate about cultivating connection through fitness and her mission is to empower women to do the things that their heart desires and face the fear of the unknown. She hopes to take women from where she started on her fitness journey, in her bedroom with a pair of 5 lb dumbbells and a workout in DVD, to feeling confident and empowered with any piece of equipment at the gym! Wynter is married to her high school sweetheart and has a 6 year old daughter. She loves coffee, wine and chocolate. She is competing in her first bodybuilding competition in April.

Recently I had the pleasure of hearing my new friend, Kara Williams, speak to a sweet group of local women I'm a part of. She came to talk to us about business and interior design. And, although we LOVED hearing from her, she mentioned something in her share that made me head straight for her afterwards. I'm learning to boldly ask those I'm feeling called to grab, "Would you be on my podcast?" I know there are people who need to hear about your story dealing with anxiety. Friends, anxiety disorders are the most common mental illness in the U.S., affecting 40 million adults in the United States age 18 and older, or 18.1% of the population every year. (according to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America). We all know someone or are someone who has a level of anxiety needs to be managed. In this episode, Kara shares with us her life-long struggle with anxiety and what tools she's been able to use to help not only address it, but actually give it space in her life and grace in the process. Today is an important episode. If you hear something that you think would help someone else, please share it. If you think you need help with this, please make sure you reach out to someone. There is so much help out there and, as we share today, shining a light and talking about it is a great place to start. Kara is an interior designer and the brand ambassador for Cottages & Bungalows magazine. She has found joy in fixing up the 1901 farmhouse style home with her husband and 2 Great Danes.

Last week I made a funny reel on Instagram about being a people pleaser and, apparently, I hit a button for a lot of people. It seems I'm not alone. So, it made it's way to an episode. People pleasing has been a life-long struggle for me. And when I say struggle, I feel it deep. After MUCH personal development and a TON of leaning into what God says about me, I have some tools that I know have helped me. This episode is packed with what's worked for me and I hope you can find one or two that work for you!

Sometimes you just meet those people that you connect with instantly. Leanne is one of those people for me! We had the best conversation and my biggest takeaway was...go deeper than surface level...dream bigger...keep digging in. Knowing who you are and what you're made to do takes intention over time. I'm here for it. Leanne is a mom, wife and life coach who focuses on helping women live their dream life. At a young age, she knew she wanted to pursue a career in Accounting. She achieved her goal, getting her CPA license, her MBA and working at a Big 4 firm. But, after the loss of her mother and the birth of her daughter, she felt like something was missing. While focusing on her fitness, she pursued a business within network marketing. In 2014, she left her corporate job to build her business full-time. Through her growth, she found her passion for helping women achieve time & financial freedom by pursuing their passion. She launched her own business & life coaching company in early 2021.

Well, friends, we did it!!! That's a wrap on 2021. A great year, a hard year, a long year, a short year. Am I right or am I right?
This episode is filled with some fun memories together looking back on 2021 and some encouragement as we head into 2022. In this episode, I share on how to create whitespace (those areas in the margin that help us find rest) as we take on the new year. I promise this will be a new spin on intentions / goals and help you think of creative new ways to shake things up.

Ever find yourself in that funk. That valley. You're just not feeling it.
That was me recently. Not a crisis, but a weird space. And if I'm honest, a depression. BUT the difference between old me and new me is this: I don't stop doing the things that I know will get me through the weird (TEMPORARY) seasons. I know the things that will get me to the other side of the funk. Today I'm sharing with you my short list of items that I know I HAVE to keep doing to just keep swimming.
Hope today's episode serves you and your heart. Share with a friend if they need it.

How a weekend of imposter syndrome overwhelm led to JOY deep down!

Yep, I said it. TRUST THE PROCESS!!! I had a moment this week in my own journey; an epiphany, if you will. I wanted to share with all of you my heart on this subject. We so quickly want results or quick fixes, but trusting the process creates the mindset piece of the journey. I don't believe God wants us to just go for the goal. I believe He wants us to lean into the journey. And that's where you find the sweet joy of results.
Hope this episode helps you in your own journey! Share, like, tag a friend who needs to hear it.

What are you someday dreams? Those little ones (or big) that you have on the list for one day. One day when you have time. One day when you're ready. One day when it's easier. One day. If you have someday dreams and know that feeling, this episode is for you!
Tiffany Tutu, wrote her first children's book when she was a child herself. Her first editor, her mother, Della, instilled belief that she could be a children's author one day. The dream laid dormant until Tiffany became a mother. With the pen name of Tiffany Tutu, a nickname given to her by her kindergarten teacher, she was inspired by the small moments and memories she collected during quarantine with her son, Brigden, to write a book celebrating him and those moments.
She lives in the Midwest with her husband, three children, a cat that doesn't age, endless dinosaurs, countless baby dolls, and a few tutus, of course. A common saying is that nothing in life is certain, but when it comes to Tiffany, one can be assured she has a glass of tea in hand, no socks on her feet, and a dream growing in her heart.
Enjoy this fun episode!

Someone commented to me that I seem joyful even as I’m talking about hard things. And without editing a response I said “because he always shows up”. Here’s my 3 min episode of encouragement.
This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
Friend, it's a choice. I spent years living settled and complacent. I spent countless hours thinking I SHOULD do something. I felt like I could never change. I felt like my issues were unfixable. I felt like I could never be consistent. I would be frustrated or snappy, thinking it was the result of others actions that made me feel that way. Until the day I realized I get to choose. Truly choose. Despite circumstances or situations, I get to choose to take care of my mind, body, and soul. I get to choose what I fuel myself with. I get to choose to move. I get to choose how I react.
I didn't start out nailing it every day and I still don't nail it every day, but when it doesn't go the way I planned I do know I get to choose how I keep going. How I show myself and others grace in the process. How I show up!
Friend, it's a choice. It's up to you and only you to make it.
Listen to this episode, please. I took you guys on my evening walk with me, so forgive the audio, but I just couldn't wait to share my heart.

Oh boy, did Alison and I have fun on the pod this week. She is quickly becoming one of my favorite people. She is real, authentic, honest and bold in her faith. All things I want around me in life! Alison says she's a busy, audacious, outgoing, sometimes irritable, but always blessed, woman. Though she's have been a Believer for over a decade, she stopped investing in her relationship with the Lord years ago and found herself discontent and angry. She didn’t WANT to be that way, but she just couldn’t “get happy!” It wasn’t until she started making time for God and His Word every day, praying to Him unashamedly and listening for His response that things started to change. She shares today how she's come a long way in her walk with Jesus since then and now her mission is to help other stressed out moms reclaim their joy through a relationship with Jesus. Grab a cup of coffee and come chat with Alison and I! You can find her on Instagram @graceoverperfection_podcast and you'll want to binge her podcast like I did.
