In this raw and vulnerable episode of "The Make Room Show," I'm opening up about the reasons behind an unexpected six-week hiatus. I'm giving you insights on some personal struggles with burnout professionally, and a harrowing near-death experience that forced me to confront the unsustainable pace of my life and reevaluate my priorities. Instead of allowing myself to feel guilty for stepping back to care for myself, I gave myself a PERMISSION SLIP - to slow down, take necessary breaks, and focus on self-care. Real strength lies in recognizing one’s limits and taking steps to address them before reaching a crisis point - which I had to learn the hard way. My hope is that through being vulnerable and sharing this with you, I can inspire you to make similar choices towards a healthier, more balanced life.
I'm taking the next couple of weeks to really dive deep into what all these recent events mean for me and my life. I'll be keeping you updated on this journey as things unfold because you, my dear listeners, truly deserve to hear this insight. I'm not entirely sure what's going to emerge from this period of reflection, but I feel it's going to be significant, different, and hopefully, a lot easier.
During this time, you might notice that I'm not as active on social media, and the posts that do appear might be just simple snapshots of life with my family and friends. I'm stepping back from the constant hustle, the endless to-dos we all think we need to accomplish daily. It's become clear that this rat race isn't making us happier, and that needs to change. So, let's focus on what really matters—our happiness and well-being. Thank you for your understanding and support. I love you all so much.

About Brandi
"One day, back in 2016, I woke up to a life I never saw coming. The life and family I’d spent 20 years building stopped on a dime. My marriage was over. The church I’d spent years pouring into was no longer part of my life. My community, friends and professional life disappeared in a day’s time. Devastated but determined to create a life that finally felt like my own, I faced my healing journey head-on. I discovered the truth of my experience and learned how to develop a redemptive perspective of my suffering. My life isn’t perfect and my work isn’t done, but I have worked hard to allow my suffering to become a survival guide for others who are walking through emotional turmoil, devastation and heartbreak... I’m a Certified Personal and Executive Coach with The CaPP Institute (Coaching and Positive Psychology) as well as a Professional Coach with Blessing Ranch Ministries where she uses the Unhindered Model to bring healing, freedom, and power to your heart and life. I also co-authored a book with my BFF, Lori Wilhite, Leading and Loving It: Encouragement for Pastors’ Wives and Women in Leadership. My work with Leading and Loving It empowers women in ministry and leadership to develop healthy relationships with themselves so that they can build healthy families, churches, and communities..."

This episode is NOT just for women! Guys, let's start learning how to support the females in our lives through this life-changing experience: menopause.
Join us on the Make Room Show today as we dive into the topic of menopause and overall health with our guest, Laurie Lewis. For this health coach, menopause dealt a crushing blow -- brain fog, pain, memory loss, and the sudden gain of 50 pounds of stubborn hormonal fat. She tried everything she knew to feel better, and the methods that worked in the past made no difference.
After struggling for years she suddenly stumbled upon Intermittent Fasting which turned the course of her life. She started having an “eating window” that very same day, and in less than a week the menopausal fog lifted and she felt more like herself. Laurie restored her health and comfortable weight, and at 60-years old has changed thousands of lives around the world through her group programs, 1:1 personal coaching sessions, and is recognized as the go-to Intermittent Fasting expert.
Talking points:
-
Laurie's personal journey and how she discovered the importance of fueling her body well, eventually becoming a health coach.
-
"Not-foods"
-
Laurie's experience of entering perimenopause and how it affected her physical and mental well-being.
-
Her discovery of the power of intermittent fasting in balancing hormones, reducing inflammation, and promoting mental clarity.
In this conversation, Laurie emphasizes that intermittent fasting is not a one-size-fits-all approach. She encourages a gentle and consistent approach tailored to individual needs, lifestyle, and goals. She also addresses the misconception that menopause is an inevitable decline and highlights the possibility of feeling healthier and more vibrant during this phase of life.
Join us as we delve into the physical and emotional benefits of intermittent fasting during perimenopause and explore how this practice can empower women to take control of their health. Whether you're already familiar with intermittent fasting or curious about its potential, this episode offers valuable insights and practical tips to make room for clarity and health in your life.

On Today's episode of the Make Room Show, we dive into all things Motherhood.
First off, have you ever noticed how society rarely uses the term "working dad"? It's as if fatherhood doesn't require the same level of work and commitment as motherhood. Well, let me tell you, being a mother is hard work, and we deserve the recognition for it.
We're constantly told that we need to "have it all," but what does that even mean? Society's expectations of what we should achieve as mothers can be overwhelming and unrealistic. It's time to redefine what "having it all" means to us individually and strive for a more authentic approach to motherhood.
As mothers, we need to be authentic and vulnerable with our struggles, so we can build a supportive community. It's okay to admit that we don't have all the answers and that we need help sometimes.
We also talk about how we can stop being so bothered by the little things that don't matter. Most of our expectations are just that - expectations. We need to let go of the pressure we put on ourselves to be perfect and embrace imperfection as a part of the journey.
We also need to stop judging other moms because we are all in this shared human experience. The label of "mother" means so many things, and we each have our own unique way of navigating it. Let's celebrate our differences and support each other instead of tearing each other down.
Speaking of labels, how about embracing our "becoming" as a mother? It's a constant journey of growth and self-discovery. We should be proud of how far we've come and excited about where we're headed.
For empty nesters, it's a new phase of life that can be both exciting and scary. It's important to take time to reflect on our accomplishments as a mother and focus on self-care rituals that will actually help us.
Finally, let's not forget that how we were mothered can affect how we mother our own children. It's important to recognize any patterns or habits that we may have inherited and actively work to break the cycle if necessary.
So there you have it, moms. A lot to think about and reflect on. Let's continue to support each other on this journey and remember to take care of ourselves along the way.

Focused on the intersection of motherhood and careerhood, Mom Who Works hosts in-person events, digital retreats, and weekly engagement and discussion with more than 2,500 women through its platforms on Instagram, Facebook and email.
Worthen is a mom who works as CEO and founder of James Martin Company, helping candidates and nonprofits create and implement intentional development strategies.

Mental clutter can take a toll on your life and your ability to reach your highest potential. It can also make it hard to focus for more than a few minutes at a time. Getting organized is one of the best things you can do to relieve stress, worry, and anxiety.

My guest today shares his near-death experience with us and how it increased his faith and gave him a closer look at God. Like many believers, Jeremy Downs was done with empty religion and heard-them-before “motivational speaking” sermons. He wanted to experience a spirituality that sparked life, one that was meaningful.
He tried switching churches. He tried praying. Somehow, God was always at arm’s length, distant and untouchable.
Then Jeremy took a pile of Amanita muscaria mushrooms—a legal substance known to deepen perspective and creativity. Although he hadn’t taken them to solve his spiritual longings, they sent him in an unexpected direction. An accidental overdose nearly killed him, taking him.

This episode is all about how to create a vision for your life. If you can not visualize your endpoint, how will you know how to get there, and how will you know when you have arrived?
When was the last time you gave yourself permission to daydream about your life? When I was a little girl I LOVED to climb trees. I remember sitting up on that branch and just imagining what my life would be like when I was grown up. It was a really fun thing to do. As a mom, our lives are busy and filled each day with responsibilities. But taking time to create a vision for your life is a great starting point for building the life that you truly want. Think about your future and ask yourself what you would like it to look like. Don't set any limitations on yourself. If you can't dream it, you can't do it!

Hi Moms!!! Today I am tackling MEAL PREP! I know this is not everyone’s favorite topic, but it is a very important one that, using the tips I talk about in this episode, might make it not be so bad after all!
I know you are all so busy, so I am all about keeping it SIMPLE. But in order to make this happen, you have to schedule time for meal prep and for grocery shopping. You need to look at your schedules and carve out a day per week, or a day every 2 weeks where you can get your big shopping done. Then if you need a couple of small things during the week, maybe your husband or an older child could pick it up for you.
When putting your groceries away, putting the new items in the back and bringing the older items to the front is a good way to make sure your food doesn’t go to waste. If you have fruits and vegetables that are going to go bad soon, juice them or freeze them and use them in smoothies. Also, having your fruits and vegetables washed and cut up, in the fridge ready to go, is a huge time saver for later in the week on those busy days.

I love today's topic: Practicing Stewardship! I think stewardship is one of the most beautiful things in the world. The Bible says we are to be stewards of this world. We are responsible for managing what God has given us. He has given us so much and put so much in our hands. It is amazing! And most importantly, He has placed His trust in us.
It is important to ask yourself, "Am I being a good steward with all that God has given me? With all the blessings, with all the things I have prayed for?" Maybe you've prayed for your first home, a new car, a spouse, or children to fill your home. So now when you look at your life, and look at all the things that God has given you and answered your prayers with, are you showing God that you are a good steward with these things? This is a very powerful question to ask yourself because if you're not, should God bless you with more? If you're not able to appreciate and take care of what you have already received, should He give you more? What would you do with more?
One way to become a better steward is to shift your mindset from ownership to one of management. The thought of managing things compared to owning things changes everything. It is such a different perspective. You move away from not just being the owner of a home but the manager of a home as well. And as a manager or steward, you start asking yourself, what would God want me to do with this home, this car, or this family? And how would God want me to treat this? Instead of holding onto things you no longer need, you start to look for ways to share them. You invest in what He has entrusted to you and has given to you. This may be a completely different outlook on life than you may have had before.
Stewardship to me is showing God that I am grateful for the things he has already made me responsible for, the things He thinks I am capable of taking care of. Being a good steward also shows God that I can handle more. I know and I trust myself to be a good steward with what comes next and what other additional blessings God has in store for me. This is how I want all of you to feel.
Practicing stewardship is not always easy and is not always convenient but it is imperative if you want to be a person that lives on purpose. What would a good steward of the things you have look like? Tune in to hear the questions you can ask yourself to see if you are being a good steward with what you have now, and the 4 steps you can take to become a better steward.
This is a topic I am super passionate about. For more information on practicing stewardship, check out Chapter 7 in my newest book: Make Room!

Okay moms, so your kids come home at the end of the school year, or from camp, or at the start of the school year, well okay, let’s face it, all year long, with all that stuff! All those papers and projects. What do you do with it all? You need a system in place to tackle these items as they enter your home, so piles don’t end up on your kitchen counter or your kitchen table that you have to keep moving around, adding stress to your already stressful lives.

How does clutter affect your health? Has this question ever crossed your mind? Please welcome our guest, Julie Barton, author of the book, The Clutter-Health Connection, as she unravels the impact clutter could be having on your physical and mental well-being.
It’s not just about wanting your house to look beautiful so you can have people over. It’s about being healthy in your space. Feeling like you can do what you need to do without feeling the oppression or claustrophobia that can come with having too much stuff in your space.
Clutter in your home is an ongoing stressor that you can’t escape. When we are under a lot of stress, our cortisol levels rise. When these levels stay high for an extended period of time, we are going to start having physical health issues. The clutter can also affect your mental health as well. It may be causing you embarrassment or shame. It may be causing you to lose sleep, feel depressed, or over-eat. It can cause fogginess in your mind. There are countless health effects both mentally and physically that this clutter could be having on you.
If you don’t think your clutter is causing you stress, find a cluttered area in your home and stare at it for 5 minutes. Write down how you feel. Then clean up that same area and organize it, remove the excess, and put everything in its home. Now be in the space for 5 minutes and write down how you feel.
Clutter is a huge energy drain. It is a never-ending narrative in your mind telling you, you should do this or, you should do that. You feel exhausted in your own space. Your clutter is telling you that you don’t follow through on things, you don’t complete tasks. Over time you start believing this. You start to feel like a failure.
Even though it is so hard at times, it is worth putting in the effort to feel the healthful benefits; being able to breathe, and not having your stuff be another thing on your list to manage and take care of. And when we are constantly letting stuff dictate how we feel every day and dictate our thoughts and energy level, we have very little to put into our everyday life. We are not being intentional. We are being a slave to our stuff and that is not any way to live.

OK, are you a baseball mom? If so, this is the episode for you! I have been one for over 17 years and I can't wait to share the organizing tips that keep me sane!
This post is for you sisters of the game! Although it will also be useful for moms who spend a lot of time traveling for other sports with their kids.
I will start with a little bit about my background as a baseball mom...
I started getting into baseball when my high school sweetheart, now hubby Josh, played and I got roped into being the scorekeeper because spring was a season I personally sport free because I was busy as a dancer. After high school, Josh went on to play college baseball up until he was signed to play with a professional team in Canada. (ironically Josh's Grandpa was a Canadian that got signed to play pro ball in the US).
So I was watching a lot of baseball before our son Bryceton was even born! But on February 28, 2005, it was revealed to me that I would most likely be watching way more baseball when our son Bryceton was born.
So it began, the games, Josh coaching multiple teams, the tryouts, the travel and now this summer is the busiest of all. The summer before senior year.
We will be living out of our suitcases most of the summer so I thought I would share what I have learned and how I stay organized in hopes of helping the next moms coming up into this world of baseball.

Do you have a book in your heart that you want to write? Is it something you’ve always dreamed about doing? Tune in and hear about my journey as an author… If I can do it, you can too!!! ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!
As we are going through the preorder season for my newest book, Make Room, I’ve been thinking a lot about my journey as an author. When I started, I didn’t have a clue what I was doing. No one taught me how to do this. I’m really hoping that my story will encourage you, inspire you, and teach you to keep on going. NEVER GIVE UP!
On July 5th my SIXTH book will be coming out into the world. I can’t believe it. I am so excited! If someone had told me 15 years ago that this would be happening, I would never have believed them. I didn’t even know then that this was going to be part of my journey, but it is happening.

Are you ready to make a change in your life?
Have you felt a nudge from God to follow a different path?
Is there something deep inside your spirit that is telling you to take a risk, do something different, and follow your dream?
A year from now would you live to be called a purpose-driven mom?!
Listen to this episode to hear the inspirational story of how my guest, Jennifer McDaniel, took that risk, tried something different, followed God's path, and made her dream happen!
Just a few years ago, Jennifer McDaniel was feeling overwhelmed by family health issues and the struggles of being a stay-at-home mom to 4 kids. She was burnt out from helping everyone and putting everyone else's needs first. She felt like her cup was empty and she had nothing left to give. She decided to put herself first and attended my 2019 Created Order Conference in Charlotte, NC. Getting there wasn't easy, but she knew God had a path for her so she made it happen.
Often times right before you are ready to go to the next level, there will be obstacles to overcome. This is when you learn perseverance. As a mom, we often give into those obstacles or guilt but you have to take time for yourself to hear your inner voice to know where your path should take you. It is important to give yourself time, be calm, stop running, and listen.
You don't have to have all the answers. You can figure it out as you go. Follow where you are guided and the answers will come. I know many of you want to live on purpose and are waiting for everything to be perfectly lined up and have all the answers.
If you have a dream in your heart you need to give yourself permission to try, even if it's a little bit at a time. Surround yourself with women that are highly motivated, and encouraging and you will get there.
Now that Jennifer McDaniel is a purpose-driven mom, she is no longer stuck in the daily mess. She is living intentionally with purpose and you can too!

Amazon’s low price doesn’t mean low risk when it comes to safety issues. When you spend money on Amazon or online retail sites, that low price could put you, or your family, in harm’s way. Most people expect that products bought online are vetted and have gone through testing—but that isn’t necessarily the case.
You can’t rely on companies to keep your family safe from hazardous issues. It’s up to you. Former Amazon safety specialist Rachel Johnson Greer shares the knowledge you need to recognize dangers lurking on your porch in blue-taped Prime boxes. Her brand new book, No Dead Babies: How Amazon Pursues Profit Above Safety And How to Protect Your Family, is filled with startling facts and reports. In this episode, she will open your eyes to the truth about online marketplaces and help you make your living space safe—before suffering a senseless, avoidable tragedy.

Have you ever wondered how to donate clutter after you have started an organizing project? I know many people automatically give to Salvation Army or Goodwill but today I really want to encourage you to look past these two large nonprofits and look for the smaller agencies in your neighborhood. Places like your local animal shelters like the SPCA, domestic violence programs like the YWCA, and foster care agencies. All of these types of nonprofits have a great need for the stuff that is just sitting in your closets, basements, and attics! Plus, I believe it is so much more motivating when you donate "clutter" to organizations that are close to your heart. Today I share all of my reasons for donating your stuff to the smaller nonprofits and ideas for where to take your items.
Also, I would LOVE it if you would send me your favorite local organizations so that I can add them to the website I am building on the Local Give page of this website. You can email your suggestions to organize@jenniferfordberry.com.

Organizing after someone has passed on is never easy. In fact, it may be the hardest job you ever have to do. If organizing is tough for you to begin with, coupling that task with grief can make it feel insurmountable. As an organizing coach, I have had the experience of doing this for many people and I can tell you it is a very emotional experience. In this episode, I share my advice for handling this situation as well as how we can be more responsible with our belongings while we are still here on this earth.

Companies create mission statements to keep them on track with their goals, to let others know why they are, and to help them measure their success. If you create a family mission statement you will give your family clarity and direction.
We take the time to set goals for our careers but usually overlook setting goals as a family. Why did you create a family? That would be a good question to start with before you continue with this episode.
This year give your kids more than material things. A family mission statement can give them meaning, the feeling of belonging, and a goal that you can all reach together as a family.

Today's show will blow your mind! Whistleblower Deborah Conrad was a highly regarded PA at her local hospital UNTIL she started to ask questions and report the side effects her patients were experiencing from the COVID-19 vaccinations. Her story is one that we all need to hear regarding what is happening inside the health care industry. In this episode, she tells us how she was reprimanded for reporting her findings to the VAERS system, and how her concern for her patients and multiple red flags regarding the health care system ultimately lead to her position being terminated.
What is VAERS?Established in 1990, the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) is a national early warning system to detect possible safety problems in U.S.-licensed vaccines. VAERS is co-managed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). VAERS accepts and analyzes reports of adverse events (possible side effects) after a person has received a vaccination. Anyone can report an adverse event to VAERS. Healthcare professionals are required to report certain adverse events and vaccine manufacturers are required to report all adverse events that come to their attention.
VAERS is a passive reporting system, meaning it relies on individuals to send in reports of their experiences to CDC and FDA. VAERS is not designed to determine if a vaccine caused a health problem, but is especially useful for detecting unusual or unexpected patterns of adverse event reporting that might indicate a possible safety problem with a vaccine. This way, VAERS can provide CDC and FDA with valuable information that additional work and evaluation is necessary to further assess a possible safety concern.

Fear not...something I keep telling myself over and over lately. Are you in the same boat? I would love to know. So many people are feeling worried, fearful, and full of anxiety. But we still have to remember all of the reasons why God says "Fear Not". I hope this episode gives you some inspiration to stay focused on your faith more than your fear.

The bathroom is most likely the first thing you see in the morning. If you are beginning your day in a cluttered mess, you’re setting the stage for a stressed-out day! The bathroom is also usually the small- est room in the house but one in which you spend a lot of time. The only items that should be stored in this room should relate to bathing, hygiene, toilette or relaxing.
For a full list of bathroom organization tips go to the show notes: https://jenniferfordberry.com/episode97/

Dr. Aimee Trammell is back on our show sharing more COVID vaccine updates. She was previously a guest on Episode 88 and it was one of our most popular episodes. We love Dr. Trammell because she simply shares information based on medical information that has come out over the past few months. Our goal with this show is to share information WITHOUT judgment. We hope that you find this episode informative.

No true pre-clinical trials done
-Preclinical (animal) trials are normally done over 1-5 years to assess the safety and long-term risk. Pfizer and Moderna injected animals and checked for “efficacy” (meaning if the injection would cause the immune system to respond). None were tested for safety and there has been no peer review of the data. Only 1-2 months later were Phase 1 trials begun for both. See timeline in the attached article.
Today's episode is about a story that should be on Dateline or at the very least covered by the news. It is a story that will break any parent's heart. Our guest, Laura Koepp, shares the story of what happened when her daughter Cassy, a young woman with disabilities, was deplaned for taking her mask down on an airplane when she needed to swallow her medicine.
My hope is that this story will spread as a reminder to all of us that we need LESS judgment in this world and more empathy and compassion as we navigate these confusing times. Please be sure to listen through to the end for Cassy's powerful statement to the security guard that forcibly removed her from the plane.
In order to fully understand what Cassy has been through and her disabilities, please listen to EPISODE 3. This is the episode where Laura shares the full story of her daughter's car accident as written in her book Broken: A Mother's Story.*
UPDATE! After the show aired Laura received a letter from Southwest Airlines. Go to the show notes to read the letter.

We often associate a ritual with religious or spiritual activity, but in the broadest definition, a ritual is simply a set pattern of activity. Making something into a ritual will inevitably place more importance on the activity. It will also help you be more conscious of what is happening, how it is happening, and how it affects you. Because of this, rituals can be a great aid in making changes in your life and forming new beneficial habits.

With so much information being given out regarding the Covid-19 vax I felt it was my responsibility to share the knowledge I have learned from Dr. Aimee Tramm. I believe God put Dr. Tramm in my path for a reason. My listeners should know that I believe each American should be given free choice when it comes to their body and their healthcare. This episode is not meant to persuade anyone in one direction or another. It is simply to share information that is out there in the medical field so that each individual can educate herself and then come to the decision that she feels is best for her.

When you don't know exactly where to put something in your home, where does it end up? The basement! It can easily become the dumping ground of your home, but it doesn't have to. Taking the time to purge things you no longer need and organize the things you plan on keeping, will give you the ability to reimagine your basement space and make it into something that functions better for you and your family.

Karen talks to Jennifer Ford Berry about the challenges unique to the experience of parenthood. These are challenges that you will have to brace yourself to face at some point.

When was the last time you took a good, long look at your home and thought it was as clean and organized as it could be? In today’s busy, fast-paced world, home organization often tends to fall by the wayside unconsciously. Amanda Sullivan, the author of Organized Enough: The Anti-Perfectionist’s Guide to Getting – and Staying – Organized, discusses how “going with the flow” might just help you get your home – and your life – as organized as possible. A change in the way space looks and feels starts from the way one thinks about that space. Who knows, beneath all the clutter, you might just discover a new way to use that space.—I am super excited to have a special guest on the show, another fellow professional organizer. Her name is Amanda Sullivan. Welcome to the show, Amanda.
Thank you. I’m happy to be here.
Amanda is coming on from Manhattan and we are both trying not to freeze our butts off because we are in New York, in the tundra. I want to go ahead and welcome you to the show. Thank you so much for being here. I want to let everybody know that Amanda, besides being another organizer since 1999, is the Founder of the Perfect Daughter: Chaos Control. She is also the author of Organized Enough: The Anti-Perfectionist’s Guide to Getting-and Staying-Organized which we’re going to chat about. You live in Manhattan with your husband and your three children. How old are your kids, Amanda?
The oldest one is nineteen. He’s not around so much. I have fourteen-year-old twins.
Are they boys or girls or one of each?
One of each.
Let’s talk about that. I have a five-year-old son and a seventeen-year-old daughter. How are you handling these twins at fourteen?
With all the wisdom I gained from my now nineteen-year-old. It’s a lot about anti-perfectionism and letting go. My work and my personal life have a lot of relation to one another. Breathe, have faith, don’t be too controlling.
I feel like that’s so funny that you said that because I’m starting to learn how to let go of some of my control with my seventeen-year-old but I’m not going to lie, it’s hard.
It’s hard but sometimes they rip off the Band-Aid for you.
I get this question all the time. Which ones are like you that are organized?
I find it fascinating because despite the fact that I’m organized but my husband is not, each kid is totally different and unique. I used to say my older son was pretty organized for a boy. My younger son is neat. He’s not perfectly neat. He’s a fourteen-year-old boy but there’s methodicalness to him. My daughter is super creative and when she was little, she would gather from all over. I’d say to my son, “It’s time to put away the toys.” He’d put all the Legos back in the Lego basket. I’d say it’s time to clean up to my daughter. She would throw herself down and sob. I’d look and I think, it’s much harder for her because on this doll stroller she has a doll, my evening bag, a whisk, her brother’s Lego, she spent the entire game gathering from all over the house. It was much harder to put it away. She’s super creative. They’re all their own people.
It’s good practice for clients, right?
That’s right and vice versa.
You started your business in 1999. I started my business in 2001. We’ve been doing this for a long time and so much has changed. One of the things I was cracking up, I have to tell you this, on the back of your book,

Choosing the right path to fulfillment involves numerous obstacles including breaking work contracts and leaving your profession. Jacinda Jacobs took control of her life and walked away from her TV and radio life and went on a self-discovery journey with God. A motivational speaker and the author of Uniquely Qualified, she shares how she helps other women find their divine purposes as well as how she started a women’s conference. Know how you can veer towards going after what you want to achieve by learning more about Jacinda’s program in this episode.—I am so excited because we started a brand-new season on the show. I have a very special guest in store for you that I know you’re going to love. Her name is Jacinda Jacobs. Welcome to the show, Jacinda.
Jennifer, thank you for having me. I’m excited for us to chit-chat.
I’m excited for you to be here. I feel like this is completely part of our divine meeting and we’re going to share with the audience why I’m saying that. We both know, you and I would not be here right now if it wasn’t for a divine intervention from our Heavenly Father. Thank you, Jesus, for that first of all. Thank you, Jacinda, for coming on.
Thank you, God. You’re exactly right, I couldn’t have said it better myself.
I want to you tell us a little bit about your backstory and then we’ll go into how we even met. How did you get to where you are now?
I started my media journey several years ago. I started on morning radio and then transitioned into television news. I’m that girl that you always see on TV or hear on the radio. I was doing weather, I was reporting, morning anchoring and all that fun stuff. Then God started to stir something up inside of me. I thought my whole life that that’s what I had worked for is to get into media, get into that spotlight. Then I realized that there was so much more in me and God was calling me to leave the industry. In 2014, my boss was giving me a major promotion at the television station and with a lot of prayers, a lot of tears. Not only did I walk away from the promotion, but I asked my general manager if he would help me break my contract with the TV station, which he replied. I saw him and I was like, “You’re in my book. You are part of my story, Jim.”
Jim said, “There was a calling on my life years ago and I never answered it. I’ll do everything in my power to help you answer yours.” He helped me get out of my contract. To this day, I still work for the TV station, but it’s on a different basis. I do cool fun stories with me and my husband, but when I left full-time, I went into prison ministry. I started this journey of self-discovery of trying to figure out who am I in God? Who did God create me to be? What is my mission in the world? I wrote this book called Uniquely Qualified. I started a Bible study community called Stolen Lunches, which is a nonprofit and it’s global. I started a Uniquely Qualified women’s conference. It travels to different cities. I’m pushing women to stop making excuses and to walk into their divine purpose.

I want to take a step back for a second because I should have told the readers that you are in Charlotte, North Carolina right now. That’s where you’re a local celebrity girl. The funny thing is that I used to live in Charlotte also. For those who have read my previous season, I was talking all the time about my conference called Created Order and going back to C…

Clutter takes up space. Whether it is physical, emotional, or mental, clutter takes away the time and place that we would rather have to be more productive. Laurie Palau, the author of the book, Hot Mess: A Practical Guide to Getting Organized, sets us up for a more organized life as she motivates us to become more organized through her advice and tips. As a mother herself raising teenagers who also juggles being the host of the weekly podcast, This Organized Life, and the Founder of Simply B Organized, Laurie is very familiar with the struggles women have of trying to integrate multiple roles in their lives. She shares her own way of achieving work-life integration and keeping her time organized in the midst of it all. On the parenting side, Laurie lets us in on how she makes her kids stay organized – from parental controls to keeping their stuff.—
Listen to the podcast here:
A Mom’s Practical Guide To Getting Organized with Laurie PalauI am going to be bringing you a very special guest, my organizing friend, Laurie Palau. She is going to come on and we’re going to talk about everything from organization to raising teenagers. Welcome to the show, Laurie.
Thank you so much for having me.
Laurie is the author of the book, Hot Mess: A Practical Guide to Getting Organized. She also is the host of the weekly podcast called This Organized Life. She’s the Founder of Simply B Organized where she speaks, teaches, and works one-on-one with clients to help them reduce clutter and increased productivity. Laurie’s advice has been featured in the New York Times Parenting Section, Family Circle, Home & Table Magazine. She can also be seen sharing tips on 6ABC and WFMZ in addition to other radio and podcast interviews. When she’s not organizing the world, Laurie can be found at home in Bucks County, Pennsylvania with her husband, Josh, same as mine, two girls, two dogs. She loves coffee and Tito’s Vodka. In her spare time, she is actively involved in St. Baldrick’s Foundation, which raises funding for pediatric cancer research. We already knew that we had a lot in common, Laurie. I did not know that you have a husband named Josh like me and loved Tito’s like me.
Those are two things we did not discuss. I don’t know which was the bigger shame. I think it’s probably the Tito’s.
We met through another organizer, Jen Kilbourne I think the first time we talked on the phone and it’s just one of those things when you meet somebody and you’re like, “Where have you been my whole life?” I want to talk about your book. I want to talk about organizing. I love having other organizers on the show because although we are very similar, hopefully there’s another spin on something that the audience can know from you. I think you’ve been doing organizing for several years.
As my day job, I’d be doing it for several years but like so many other people, it’s something that you’ve been doing for a lot longer. I’ve had Simply B Organized. I started the end of 2008 and made it official. In 2009, a totally different landscape of the industry but I love it.

There is something so hopeful whenever we think of possibilities. Matthew 19:26 says, “With God, everything is possible.” It is in this verse that we can be assured that we can always reach for what we want as long as we believe. However, our inner skeptic tends to shy away from this and create moments of disbelief. Jennifer pulls us out of that cave and into the light that God provides for us where hope and possibilities exist. She lays down some great exercises that will allow us to reflect and pray over the things we are wishing for, helping us come to terms with the visions of endless possibilities we could have for ourselves.—

On the other hand, organization coach Jennifer Burnham guides us to declutter our life by making organizing simple. She teaches us to become more efficient and take back our time.—

Ladies, it is time to give ourselves permission to be better and fill ourselves up with the tools to grow. If you feel overwhelmed with life that you could not possibly imagine making time for yourself, then you need to hear from the great featured speakers of the Created Order Conference happening in Charlotte, North Carolina on June 28th and 29th.
Giving you a peek into the event, Kristen Tucker, Cindy Williams, and Laura Dudek share their wisdom and encouragement on what you can expect in their sessions. Christian author and speaker, Kristen talks about the importance of partnering with God against the boxes you put yourself in. Cindy, entrepreneur and fitness instructor, gets into having female-focused businesses and how you can pull off a balanced lifestyle. Lastly, Christian speaker and author Laura shares how finding out your purpose that God implemented clears the clutter that prevents you from going there.—
Listen to the podcast here:
A Pep Talk For Women Part 1 with Kristen Tucker, Cindy Williams, and Laura DudekThis is a very special episode where we are going to start introducing all of the featured speakers of the upcoming Created Order Conference. I am so excited because I have been dreaming about this conference for years and it is finally happening. I am so grateful and thrilled to introduce to you each of our speakers that will be taking the stage at the event on June 28th and 29th in Charlotte, North Carolina.
We are thrilled to go back to Charlotte. My family and I used to live there for five years. My daughter was born there and we have decided to choose Charlotte as the city that is going to launch the Created Order Conference. It is going to be amazing!
The conference is all about how to recognize and eliminate the clutter that is getting in the way of your God-given purpose. I always say clutter can be anything from stuff to death to excess weight, to baggage from relationships or your inability to think clearly. Once that clutter is uncovered and removed, it’s so much easier to get your life organized in a way that frees up space, time, energy and money and who doesn’t need more space, time, energy and money in their life?
If you haven’t already heard me get into that topic because I’m super passionate about teaching women how to free up space, time, energy and money, go to episode 36 after you listen to this show today. Created Order is all about being intentional with your life. You will walk away from this event extremely motivated and prepared to make a major change. You’ll not only be fired up to see this journey through but will know how to achieve it. You will know how to get your life organized. You will know how to clear clutter and you will begin to realize that each and every one of us was put on this planet for a specific purpose that God had in mind and we want you to find out what that purpose is and start living it every single day. If you have not heard about Created Order, you need to go to my website right now, JenniferFordBerry.com/Created-Order-Conference and check it out.
You will see the schedule. You will see registration. You will see all about the speakers, their bios and what to expect. This is going to be absolutely mind-blowing. It’s not only for women, but we’re also inviting teens. If you have a teen that could use some organization or some time management skills or you want to empower them to live their purpose, bring them along because we have a keynote speaker just for the teens. We will get into that a little bit more in this show. I want you to know that if you are feeling overwhelmed by clutter, if you are sick of living a mediocre life and you want to feel like you pushed the restart button, this is the conference for you!

While pregnant with their daughter, Audrey, Angie Smith and her husband, Todd, was told by the doctors that she would not survive. Angie began blogging to cope with the hurt and to update friends and family as they went through those difficult days, which eventually became a way to share her faith and her heart and resonate with those who had experienced a similar loss. Angie is a speaker, a best-selling author, and a blogger. She writes Bible studies, adult and children’s books including Seamless, For Such a Time as This, Chasing God, Mended, and What Women Fear. She joins us in this episode to talk about motherhood, women reaching out to other women, being obedient to God and our calling, finding our own identity and authenticity, and overcoming grief with the loss a child
Watch the interview here
Of Faith, Obedience and Motherhood with Angie SmithI’m super excited to have my guest on, Angie Smith. She is an author, speaker and she writes Bible studies. Her mission in life is to make the Bible relevant to us. We are going to jump right in, Angie. Tell us a little bit more about you. Do you live in Nashville?
I do. I live 30 minutes South of Nashville. It’s called Franklin. It’s a sweet town. We got over some major flooding. I have four living daughters. The identical twin girls are sixteen years old, the other is thirteen, and the last is eight.
Can we please talk about driving because I have a seventeen-year-old? It’s been six months since she got her license. The day she got her license, I said to the guy that did the test, “Now, what do we do? We let her drive wherever she wants. What do parents do?” He goes, “The smart ones don’t.” We made her drive from our house to school for a few months. We live five minutes away from school. She had to take her brother who is turning fourteen. She graduated to driving to the next town where there’s stuff to do about ten minutes away. Honestly, I can’t picture the next step.
They have rules. Ours is super weird rules. You can only drive if you have a parent in the car and you can only have one sibling. You’d have to write a note. It’s a lot of steps. We didn’t ever have that, but it’s good.
There’s a lot of rules here. You can’t drive after 9:00 if you don’t take driver’s education. You’re not driving after 9:00 anyways.
If I need something from the grocery store, then we’re going to take our chances because I’m not driving.
We do live close to the grocery store, and I do use that a lot. When she got her license, I told her, “I’ve dreaded this day since you were born.” She started laughing and I said, “I’m dead serious.” They don’t get it. We tell them why we’re scared. We have snow and deer that come on the roads.
When I started driving, my parents had no way to get ahold of me. I could be out, and be two hours late and I get home and I’m like, “Dad, why are you frustrated?” I’m looking back, and I’m like, “How did we do that? How did my parents do that?”

While trying to figure out how to be a freshman in college, Layne Brookshire would spend her idle time organizing her space. That habit spilled out when she would go to other people’s dorms or houses where she would do the same thing. Layne is a professional organizer and the founder of Ms. Placed Professional Organizing in Austin, Texas. She says organizing brought her a lot of inner peace calmed her anxiety over roommates, tests, and a lot of other things. After noticing that an organized space helped her focus and study, it became apparent to her that your environment has a huge impact on your productivity and your ability to rest in the space. Layne tells the whole story of how she catapulted into organizing and lets us into the importance of living life with intention, teaching your kids to be diligent with their own possessions, and when the best time is to get a professional organizer.
That is awesome for everyone that’s out there. Go ahead on your phone and grab her Instagram and you will be able to see the cutest spread of pictures. She’s very color coordinated and automatically you go to her Instagram and you think this girl’s got her organizing going on. I’m glad that you mentioned that. We’re so glad you’re on the show, Layne. I appreciate your time.
Thanks for having me.
A lot of times, I find in this world of professional organizing that it comes naturally to us and it seems like we were born this way or we have always loved organizing. It’s funny because the longer you do it, you realize that not everybody thinks about organizing the same way as we do. Go ahead and tell the audience why you got into organizing, how long you’ve been doing it and why you started it?
Your environment has a huge impact on your productivity, your ability to rest in the space.Click To Tweet
A huge network of professional organizers that are my actual friends too. It’s so funny how the world works and we’d become internet friends first before we meet in person. I have a big pool of people that are my friends that are organizers. A lot of people do have that story where we’re always organizing when they were kids. That was not me and my parents would say that too. I’m honest that my room was a mess but I would get to the point, where I felt overwhelmed and then I would do a total clean sweep. It always started in the closet. I would organize it in a way where I can hang out in there like the clubhouse when I was younger.
When I went to college, I started dealing with real-life anxiety and depression. I didn’t think about it at the moment but what I noticed I did with my idle time is that I would organize my space. I would reorganize it. It brought me calmness when I was trying to figure out how to be a freshman in college. I’m trying to figure out how to be no longer the big fish in a little pond. Who am I going to be outside of what my family is and what I did in high school and all this other stuff? I noticed that’s how I spent my time organizing.
When I’d go to other people’s dorms, houses or whatever, I start doing the same thing because it brought me a lot of inner peace.

Find out how God has already equipped you to fulfill your dream. Make a list of 5 things you can do right now! We always want to know how the deep the water is before we jump in but sometimes it is time to just jump in! It’s completely OK to be a little messy and imperfect. It is not about the “quick” it’s about the “lasting”.* The mimic seasons of your life.

You may be surprised to know that approximately 1 million expectant mothers suffer a pregnancy loss every year just in the United States alone. 1 out of 4 pregnancies end prematurely in miscarriage, stillbirth or tubal pregnancy.
Why do some people bounce back after a tragic loss when others don’t? What is it that empowers the to keep moving forward through grief with a sense of hope?
Pam Vredevelt, Love and Loss Expert, Professional Therapist, and best selling author, wrestled with these questions after losing her first baby half way to term, and years later, her sixteen year old son following a car accident.
This is something that touches close to home for me. We lost two babies in between our daughter and son. I never realized how common miscarriages are until we went through that.
It is a devastating loss. Both for a mother and a father.
So my hope for today’s show is to give hope and comfort to those of you that have experienced a loss like this and also to give wisdom and understanding to those who haven’t in case someone you love goes through this.
Pam and I discuss:
-
Our personal stories of loss.
-
The importance of sharing our pain with others that we trust.
-
Why mothers feel shame when they lose a baby during pregnancy.
-
The role that facing our loss plays in healing our heart.
-
What we can do to work through our grief.
-
The moment when I told my children they have siblings in Heaven.

Welcome to the Organize Now Challenge!!! Woo hoo…super excited!!!
I don’t want you to just look at this challenge as another thing on your To Do List.
I want you to get excited! I promise if you stick with me this WILL be life changing!
How do I know this? Because I have been helping people get organized for years and the reason why I LOVE what I do isn’t because I have OCD it is because when someone I work with finally, truly understands the blessings that come with getting organized and more importantly the blessing they can be to others…I get PUMPED UP!
I want YOU to reach your full potential here on this earth and can not do this if you are not organized.
Remember I said FULL potential…sure you can be successful, reach goals, make money and buy lots of stuff if you are not organized but you can do SO much more on this earth if you clear the clutter.
I encourage you to stick with the challenge and do not give up. An organized home does not happen over night. It takes one small step at a time. Most of us don’t have all day to organize so from this point forward your goal is to focus on one area per week. Schedule time to do this. You may want to chart your progress…this particular challenge is going to be 12 weeks long. Just imagine what we can get done together in 12 weeks if you commit!
So without further a do we are going to start with the kitchen!
Ok I am going to give you 2 HUGE reasons why you should get your kitchen super organized this week and next:
This is an area of your home that the most people see.
You spend more time in the kitchen then any other room so it is imperative that it is easy to find what you need when you need it AND it is not cluttered!
So if you have the book (http://amzn.to/2iM0Xef) open up to Week 22. This week we will cover the most visual areas in the kitchen:
Countertops
Refrigerator (the outside)
Paper
Walls
Now that your kitchen surfaces look clean and simple snap a pic and post in the Facebook group (Organize Now Challenge (https://www.facebook.com/groups/340635269463587)) or here under the podcast.
Do not forget the maintenance! In order to keep this area organized refer to page 113 in the book.
Good job today. You have completed the first week in the Organize Now Challenge. This was an easy one but next week we jump into the kitchen cupboards!
