Phoenix Collaborations (2024)

I have a devotional that I read every day. Okay...most days. Sometimes my routine gets out of whack...but MOST days I start my day with a One Year Bible Reading Plan and my devotional, New Morning Mercies by Paul Tripp.

Every day I feel like the devotion was written specifically for me. On Monday the devotion was about enabling grace in motion. "God's grace is formfitted for our moment of need. It is multifaceted and expansive while also being focused and personal."

Tripp uses the example of the children of Israel escaping Pharoh and being caught between the Red Sea and the angry Egyptian army as an example of God's grace in motion. Even after experiencing the miracles that secured their escape, they were stuck...with no means of altering their circumstances. And yet, God knew exactly what he was doing. He had a plan the whole time. A plan that would demonstrate his Glory and defeat the Egyptians.

It reminded me of my life specifically the last two years of working on his business. Several times (and right now) I feel caught in circumstances that I can't alter. But I know God has a plan. I know that God didn't bring me to this point to leave me here...

I trust - He will create a way (and already knows what it looks like). Is he going to tell me beforehand? Nope. And as frustrating as that may be (I mean could I have a hint), I know it is for my own good that he doesn't show me the plan. If I knew I might be too scared or overwhelmed to move forward. But I know even today "...he works in us, to craft them into people of robust and sturdy faith. He calls them to follow, and he willingly unleashes his grace as they do so..."

Even when I feel trapped in circumstances that I cannot alter...I know God has a plan. He is doing great work in me and through me. I trust the path will be revealed...at just the right time. I can't wait to see how he will use this to grow my faith and the faith of those around me...

Be on the lookout for miracles. They are happening. More are on the way.

Do you have a favorite devotional? Let me know in the comments. I'm always looking to add to my collection.

Thanks on Tuesday... Sometimes I struggle with who to show appreciation to each week. There are sooooo many people who have supported, encouraged, and helped me along this 2-year journey. How do I choose? How do I recognize this person and not that one? I am blessed to have it be such a struggle each week. And honestly, sometimes it just comes down to I have to pick SOMEONE...so I just do the thing.

This week I am still basking in the glow of the successful launch of Real Business, Real Experts: Unfiltered last Thursday so that is what I am saying Thanks for...

Thanks to Emily Bissen with Blue Heron Business Partners who not only co-hosted with me but jumped in when I said, "Hey, what do you think about this idea?" She immediately said, "Let's do it". And three weeks later...we did. I love your s***k, your energy, and your support. It is an honor to do this with you and I can't wait to see where this goes.... If you're not connected with Emily - you should be.

Thanks to DeeDee Baze, CFP®, EA, owner of Alphemita Financial Services, and Nicki Knecht, owner of Knecht Business Solutions for being our first guests. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and providing awesome value to our attendees (and me). I loved learning from both of you. If you need help getting your finances in order, you should reach out to these ladies.

Thanks to our attendees. Thank you for trusting us with an hour of your time. We hope you will join us again!

Stay tuned for details on our next panel, which will be held on Thursday, December 5, at 1:00 p.m. PST. Mark your calendars now. More details will be coming soon, but you don't want to miss this.

Feel like you’re just spinning your wheels with your events and speaking? You want to level up your impact and income with your events and speaking engagements. But it feels like the harder you push – the farther behind you fall. You’re stuck drowning in details. Your team is stretched thin… Something’s got to give.

That’s where an experienced event pro can be a game-changer. When you delegate, you’re not just handing off tasks—you’re saving time and money. Here’s how:

• Strategic Efficiency: With almost 25 years of experience, I can step in and immediately identify what needs to be done without a lengthy onboarding process. You won’t waste time (or money) training someone.

• Budget Mastery: I know how to maximize your budget, cutting unnecessary costs while ensuring your event runs smoothly. No wasted resources, no surprise expenses.

• Time Management: Time is money! I streamline everything—from logistics to timelines—so you’re not drowning in details. This frees up time for you to focus on your expertise and income-generating tasks.

• Problem-solving: Something will go wrong—it always does. The key is having someone who can handle it quickly and calmly without costing you extra time or stress.

So why burn out your team (or yourself) trying to manage it all?

Let me wrangle the details. You focus on growing your business.

Delegate to elevate. Let’s chat!

The Prayer Powered Entrepreneur: 31 Days to Building Your Business with Less Stress and More Joy by has been such a blessing to me on my entrepreneurial journey.

I’ve been through the book multiple times over the last two years and will be starting it again in November. I imagine I will continue to use this book throughout my journey as I hope to continue to grow in my faith and as a Kingdompreneur. Although, I may soon have to buy a new book for more writing space…😉

This book is available on Amazon or most places books are sold. Or go directly to Kim Avery’s website where she has multiple resources and prayer groups available. You can check it out here: https://vist.ly/3mjke5k

I hope this book blesses you as it has blessed me. What book do you consistently return to for insight and guidance?

Feeling stuck? You're ready to make a BIGGER impact with more events, larger events, and more speaking engagements. But you and your team are tapped out. There’s no time to wrangle more details. No one can take on more.

Years ago, I subscribed to Inscribe the Word, a program that sent a monthly theme and daily scripture schedule with 2-4 scriptures to write each day. It deepened my faith and Bible knowledge. But like many habits, I allowed it to drift away over time.

Recently, I felt inspired to bring it back into my daily routine. When I revisited the website, Symphony of Praise, I found that while they stopped creating new plans in January 2023, they have seven years' worth of plans available. I downloaded them all—which should keep me busy for a minute…or two! 😊

Now, I spend 15-20 minutes each day inscribing scripture, and it’s been incredibly powerful. Each day brings new lessons and prayers. I can’t wait to see where this habit takes me as I continue to build my business for God's Kingdom.

If you’re interested, you can find the plans here: https://vist.ly/3mizxhk

I pray it blesses you as much as it blesses me! Do you have a morning routine with God or a favorite devotional? Let me know in the comments!

It's time for Thanks on Tuesday! Today I'm giving thanks to someone who walked with me in the very early days of my business.

I met in a course where we were learning how to start our businesses. We became accountability partners, meeting weekly to share progress, set goals, and encourage each other. And of course, we soon became friends! We even launched our businesses on the same day, sharing the highs and lows of our journeys.

Though our meetings have become less frequent as life and business got busier, I’ll always be grateful for Corinna’s support and encouragement. She helped me push through the challenges. Her friendship, prayers, and guidance were everything I needed in those tough early days.

Thank you, ! I miss our chats! Hope we can catch up soon!

Feeling overwhelmed by all the moving parts of event planning? I recommend starting with a comprehensive timeline and checklist! You can break it down by category—venue, speakers, food & beverage, sponsors/exhibitors, etc.

And don't worry! Keeping track of everything doesn’t have to be a headache! Using project management tools like Trello, Asana, Basecamp, or ClickUp to organize tasks, deadlines, and responsibilities.

Everything you need will be all in one place - you can set reminders, track progress...and you can check off tasks as you go. You’ll feel more in control and way less stressed.

Not sure where to start? Ready to brainstorm what you need to make your vision a reality? Let's chat! Book a Fireside Chat here: https://vist.ly/3miipkc

My current Bible Study is "The 12-Week Jesus Bible Study: Readings and Reflections for Women to Grow Closer to Christ" by Shante Grossett O'Neal. I feel like this study was written with me in mind. Every week has been exactly what I needed to hear. Don't you love those 'Godincidences?"

We're on Week 5 and this week's theme is Solitude and Rest. As an introvert, I don't struggle with finding solitude - I often retreat to my own space. But Rest...well that I struggle with. I think as solopreneurs (and women) we often think we have to keep going...there is always another email to send, laundry to tackle (I don't have kids and still I struggle to keep up), errands to run, meals to plan...the to-do list is never-ending?!?

This week's lessons reminded me that God created the sabbath for us...He set the example of rest on the 7th day - not because He needed it but because we do. It is important to take time away from our work and refresh in a quiet place so we can be recharged to continue to serve others (our clients, our families, our community, etc.)

shared a visual about the importance of rest/self-care at the EmpowerHER Wellness Workshop last Saturday. You can't pour from an empty cup...so don't pour from your cup, give from your overflow. And the best way to have overflow - is to rest, recharge - take care of YOU!

If you're like me and you struggle to rest, let this be a gentle reminder that rest is not something we earn by checking off the boxes on our to-do lists (I need this reminder weekly - maybe daily). Rest is a gift that we can enjoy at any time. And we serve others better when we pause to rest and recharge.

So, how do you rest and recharge? Do you schedule time each week or just take it as you need it? Let me know in the comments. I need to up my 'rest' game and would love to hear what works for you.

Being a solopreneur feels like a very lonely journey at times. But the reality is while I may show up and do the work 'solo' there are many people in the background who support me. I have had the pleasure of meeting many wonderful people on this journey and am blessed to have the support of those you can't see.

For the next few weeks (maybe longer - I've got a long list), I will pause on Tuesdays and recognize some of the people who have encouraged, supported, shared knowledge, held space, or in some way have positively impacted this journey.

And it only seems fitting to start with recognizing the person who has been there from Day One - when this business was nothing more than a dream, a hope...an idea with no real plan. My fiance, Wesley.

He has played a vital role in getting this business "off the ground." He has never once doubted my success - and has encouraged me when I doubted my success. He has kept me from giving up when I was ready to throw in the towel. He has been my sounding board and cheerleader.

When the months are lean he helps fill in the gaps. When I think I can't go on, he encourages me to keep going and walks with me. I can say without a doubt that I would not be where I am today without him.

I am a very lucky girl. Thank you Wesley for loving me just as I am, for cheering me on, for never doubting that I could do this crazy thing, and for putting up with all my crazy. (Ya'll...it's a lot of crazy some days.) I am eternally grateful that we found each other and are on this merry-go-round together!

I've been planning events for almost 25 years. Do you know how many have been perfect?

Zero. Nada. Not one.

I learned very early in my event planning career...that the perfect event is truly a rare unicorn. Something. Will. Go. Wrong. Something unexpected is going to happen.

How do you prepare and manage for it? You create a backup plan for all your major details (tech, transportation, speakers, etc.). You have an emergency plan for every emergency that may arise (medical, weather, fire, active shooter, etc).

But most importantly, you stay flexible and calm. Learn how to use my BAR method to manage the unexpected on my blog: https://vist.ly/3mhy8yi (Spoiler Alert: No alcohol is involved).

Be prepared. Be flexible. Remain calm.

It's Worship Wednesday! My journey as a Kingdompreneur is a winding one... There are peaks and valleys, obstacles and breakthroughs...and that was just this morning. In full disclosure, sometimes I sit and wonder what God must have been thinking when He picked me to start this business. I question HIm. Are you sure you meant ME!?! Have you met ME?!? But He just smiles and says Yes, Daughter. I created you. I know the number of hairs on your head... I definitely meant You. Keep going. I am with you.

Oh okay...Well. Let me get back to walking this valley and climbing that next peak. This week the song that is getting me through the valleys and reminding me to Praise God on the peak and in the valley is Count Em by Brandon Lake. I may have it on repeat today.

The music immediately lifts my mood. And it reminds me that even in the valley my blessings are so abundant that I "can't count em."

What are you listening to on repeat this week?

IT"S OCTOBER! This is my favorite month of the year. It's my birthday month - you know I celebrate all month! 🥳 Let's get this party started TODAY. But that's not the only reason I love October...

We're in full swing of football season...let's go ! Oh...but please don't ask me about my Panthers. Oh boy! Gonna be a long season...😱

It's a month of all things Pumpkin Spice. Oreos are a bridge too far for me...but put in my drinks, in my bread, in a donut...ALL the things. If you're in Vegas you MUST go to The Coffee Class () and try the Pumpkin "Ho Ho" Swiss Roll Cake. Oh. My. God. It is so good. And while you're there grab a Pop Tart too. You can thank me later! 😉

It's the season for fall leaves, sweaters, and cooler weather (could someone alert Mother Nature...cause Vegas still HOT!!)

Halloween is this month. I may wear my witch hat all month...🤣

I love ALL the things about October. And did I mention it's my birthday month? 😜🤣

I've got a full social media plan set for October so keep your eyes out for "Thanks" on Tuesdays, Worship Wednesdays, Tips on Thursdays... And on Mondays Ellie and I will be busting some myths around events, speaking...and who knows what else. Ellie and I will be together again for Fun Fact Fridays too! It's going to be a great month.

Do you have any questions about events? Your speaking? Got a myth you want busted (or proved)? Let us know in the comments. You may get featured in an upcoming post. We'll be seeing you!!
