Summary

What does total surrender look like? The idea of letting go often sounds good until things get real. But what happens when your yes to God costs you something?  In this episode, I sit down with longtime beauty and lifestyle influencer Jade Godbolt. She shares her journey of rebuilding her brand, giving birth to babies at home, and homeschooling her children. The peace that radiates from her during our conversation is a reminder of what happens when you discover who you are and whose you are. And my friend, that same peace is available to you.

Highlights from Today’s Episode

  • Eliminating distractions in order to focus
  • Slowing down to be present
  • Having a clear vision for your life

Hi there. Thanks for listening to the Sister Circle podcast. My name is Crystal Evanshurst,

0:09.6

and I'm your host. Thanks for tuning in to another episode of the podcast that's designed to help you

0:15.8

live your life well and to make it a life you love. Listen, you get to choose. Yes, this is Crystal

0:30.6

coming to you live. That's what I wanted to say. I feel like I'm a news reporter. Yes, this is how

0:35.5

I make my life work, y'all. I'm about to share a video with you

0:38.8

that I recorded back in March. I was live with the inner circle and it made sense then,

0:45.4

and it still makes sense now, but because I wanted to make sure you knew that I knew that it's not

0:51.3

March, here's my introduction. And yes, I am doing this introduction in the

0:55.4

lobby of a hotel because that's how we roll. Here's what I want you to know. This is the main

1:01.6

thing I need you to understand. No matter when you are watching this video, the decisions that

1:06.4

you make every day based on the thought patterns that you practice daily are the way that your life

1:12.7

is going to expand, the way you're going to express your calling, your gifting, your purpose in this

1:19.1

1:25.6

day to pay attention to your life. And then when things are

1:28.5

getting off course to course correct, it is your job to pay attention to your thoughts. And then it is

1:34.6

your job to make sure that when you get out of alignment, which by the way, don't feel bad,

1:39.2

we all do, that you get back in alignment. Because life is short and the only way that you can assuredly

1:45.9

make it to the destination that God has for you walking in obedience, yes, being righteous,

1:52.2

but also exercising discipline and doing what you know you're supposed to do is to pay attention
