I am so ready to host! I'm ready to get my cookbooks out and cook for a get-together! Can I get an amen? This quarantine still isn't quite over here in Califonia, but it's getting close! We are seeing some stores start to reopen and churches start gathering again. This episode with Kelly Minter is so powerful because Kelly has such a heart for not for feeding people, but for real hospitality. If you haven't already picked up a copy of Kelly's new cookbook, A Place at the Table, I would really encourage you to do so. It has quickly become one of my favorites. Not only are their amazing recipes, but it's filled with stories on hospitality!
Kelly is really passionate about teaching the Bible. She sings, she writes, she speaks, and she's also known for incorporating recipes into her writing. So she wrote a cookbook! A Place at the Table is all about getting people to come together. It is very hospitality minded â it's so neat!

I know this episode is going to impact you powerfully, so listen in and listen carefully to his wise words.

I could not be more thrilled because she is such a dear, sweet person and has so much wisdom. If you missed the last episode we did with her, make sure to check it out. Today we're going to be chatting about A Quiet Strength which is the life and legacy of her mom Jeannette Cathy. I can't wait for you to listen in to this Mother's Day special!

Today I'm extra excited to have my friend Kathi Lipp on the show. Oh my goodness I have so enjoyed getting to know Kathi â not only are we in the same niche, but I feel like we have the same love language. We both know what it feels like to live in clutter and to dig ourselves out of clutter. I love talking to Kathi, and love that we both come at clutter differently. Kathi has a brand new book out called The Clutter-Free Home. We chat all about her book, her Facebook group The Clutter-Free Academy (a FREE group ... you should join!) I love how she shares about the Bible perspective of clutter, and what the Word has to say about that.

Today on the show I have my new friend, Jennifer Allwood, author of the book Fear is Not the Boss of You. This could not have come at a better time. I can't wait for you to listen in because everything that we talked about is so applicable for this time. There's a lot of fear going on, a lot of unknown. Fear is Not the Boss of You is going to be such an encouragement to you. This conversation will hopefully strike a cord in helping to remind you not to let fear overcome you. Rest in the fact that God Almighty has got you in His hand, and we can be overcomers in this time.
For those of you who are not familiar with Jennifer, she is amazing. She is a powerhouse! She has an amazing podcast, The Jennifer Allwood Show. She is best known for being a cheerleader for women and adds Biblical truth to the modern-day dream big mantra. She also does business coaching â a big part of her story is how she went from a creative to her business coaching. It's an amazing story and I can't wait for you to hear it!

Today we have my dear friends, Guy and Amber Lia on the show. I always love getting the chance to talk with them ... normally it's in my living room, but today we did it over the internet! I can't wait for you to listen in and hear about their brand new book, Marriage Triggers: Exchanging Spouses' Angry Reactions for Gentle Biblical Responses. I'm telling you, friends, this book is awesome. It hits all the right spots. We were laughing because the chapters I felt drawn to read were the chapters Amber wrote and the chapters I felt Steve would enjoy were the chapters Guy wrote! So, they get it! They really do. Today you are going to be so blessed as we talk through the importance of marriage, and we learn how to exchange our spouses' angry reactions for gentle biblical responses. That is the heart behind Marriage Triggers â helping couples to approach their triggers in ways that bring healing and growth in their relationship.

Today we have my new friend Megan Dahlman on the show. She is the mastermind behind Strong-Mommas.com. I say mastermind because this woman is the master of fitness and nutrition. She is a mom, and she gets it. That's what I love about her. Megan knows what a post-partum body feels like. She knows what it's like to have screaming children needing your attention in the middle of trying to work out. She also knows what it's like to hide in the closet and eat chocolateâthat endeared me to her right there. Megan does a lot of fitness coaching, and she even has a website dedicated to telling women how to get healthy and simple ways for moms to get fit. One thing to know about Megan is that she's not a model or an athlete, in fact, she'll tell you that she's really mediocre in all those areas. She does know so much about health, fitness, nutrition, and about being a mom. She worked in the fitness industry for over a decade and after getting fed up, she started her own company, Strong Mommas.
I do want to note, I'm putting a little bit of parental guidance on this episode. I know we've talked about my eating disorder in the past, but we go into a little more detail in this episode. If you're a mom, I'd love for you to listen to this episode before passing it along to your daughters (or sons). I just wanted to be careful about this topic of conversation.

Lauren isnât only a writer, she is also a speaker and an advocate and has written essays on vulnerability is a story style. Her works have appeared in the Huffington Post and also on the Today Show. Just a quick note there are some powerful things in this episode. I actually asked Lauren to give her story because it is an amazing story. Her family story is beautiful. I love how her story shows how God works in little moments. I cannot wait for you to listen in to my conversation with Lauren.

Kate's mission is to empower women to go after their dreams by helping them to break down walls and fears â this is key! She's helping us to conquer our fears and get over them. This is such a powerful episode, and her book is so good about helping us identify fears and overcoming them.

Today we have Laura Smith on the podcast. This was a really fun episode because it kind of went in all kinds of directions, and the advice Laura gave just floored me. It truly impacted me. I canât wait for you to listen in. Laura Smith is an author and one of the books I brought her on to talk about is her 5-Minute Devotional for Girls. I get lots of requests about talking about parenting girls, and I wanted to have Laura on to talk about raising strong daughters. We talk a little bit about her upcoming book, How Sweet the Sound, that is all about hymns. I also open up and get real about a past eating disorder and her perspective was so good. I can not wait for you to listen in and hear from this mentor mom who has amazing and sound advice.

This week we have a very special show because this is the first time Iâve ever had my husband, Steve Clover, on the podcast! I cannot wait for you to listen in and hear our story â we chat about how we met, and we actually get really intimate and share about some of our struggles over the last twenty-two years of marriage. I know that the message out there is âand they lived happily ever after,â but the truth is, marriage is hard! So I really hope youâll be encouraged by this episode.

This book came out fifteen years ago and was very monumental in helping me through a hard time in our marriage. I was so thrilled to be able to chat with Gary â this is probably one of my all-time favorite interviews. He is so easy to talk to and his stories are amazing!

Today you get to be a fly on the wall in a conversation with my good friend, Tricia Goyer! If you have never listened to one of my other interviews with her (such as this one or this one), you are in for a treat. She is the author of over 70 books (yes, 7-0), is incredibly talented (probably one of the most talented people I know) and sheâs an inspiring woman of God. Oh! Did I mention she has ten kids?! We are talking with her today about her newest book, The Grumble Free Year.
This episode is all about going grumble free â and itâs not that the Goyer's were completely grumble free, but they were solely focused on this challenge. You are going to be so blown away by some of the stories she shares in this conversation about their family's challenge and developing gratitude in their lives. I think one of the beautiful things about this project is getting everyone in your house (including you ... and me!) to have a heart of contentment.

SJP #81: Getting Organization To Stick In the New Year
We are diving into #Goals today â primarily goals that tie into home organization! Home organization is something that most of us struggle with, and once we are organized, we struggle to get our organization habits to stick. I felt this was the best time to chat about this since itâs mid-January which most likely means youâve already abandoned your resolutions or youâre struggling with them. I really wanted to be here for you and encourage you in your resolutions and goals!
I am excited to share some of the tips and tricks from my new book, M.O.M. (which is on SALE for the rest of the month!) You can grab a copy on Kindle for only $1.99! Grab one for yourself or a friend â it is such a good deal!
