Live Life to be HappyThis is an exciting episode where we get to introduce you to Becca Stackhouse Morson. Becca serves as the scheduler for Stacked Keys Podcast and she does a spectacular job building the relationships with our guests. Becca says she is blunt, honest and upfront—which means that you know what you are getting —every time with her. In her professional world she is an educator and introduces us to the world of Extension services. She works as a Family and Consumer Science Agent in Georgia. Her skills and talents plug into the community partners to serve her community in a friendly environment. We talk about the projects that are close to her heart and those include relationship programming where she gets to begin with middle school kids and talk about ways to handle themselves and be successful in relationships. She works in chronic disease with a program to work toward preventing diabetes and she’s thrilled to watch how people can change their lives through more healthy eating and exercise. Another program Becca works with is financial education and she zeros in on learning and understanding your paycheck stub and knowing how it impacts. She works with teens to learn to budget and create solid financial skills. You can catch her teaching lifeguarding, CPR, ServSafe programing, processing tax returns through VITA and so much more. Her education and childhood played a key role in how she prepared for her life in general. We talk about chronic diseases and in particular Crohns — Becca was diagnosed with this invisible disease after a couple of years searching for answers when she was 18 years old. She gives great insight and over the years and she has learned a thing or two. She speaks up for herself and prepares for herself — a skill she says one has to grow and develop. Having a close friend helped her forge the changes she had to make while in college, away from home.Our conversation goes into discipline and where Becca started her own path to self discipline. From being a young athlete to handling her equipment, to managing her education plan through home schooling, Becca learned how to put the life together how she wanted it. An interesting path of conversation is that of being handed the short end of the stick and figuring out how to handle the rough days. Becca talks about her Jiu Jitsu journey and when she decided this was a sport she wanted to embark on—her brother Isaac was a major influence. She also talks about some of the life smacks that put her on this journey. People from all kinds of places were on the mats in Vegas and she saw women involved in ground work and that sold her. She began her journey. She has found this outlet to be exactly what she needs and is found in the 10th Planet system. She’s heading for certification in self defense Jiu Jitsu and will incorporate that into her regime.The conversation includes talk of relationships and how she knew she found “the one” and connected and leaned into how to become a couple. There are turning points and she talks from her perspective of deciding how she lives.Becca has always been an entrepreneur and started her own business with Pampered Chef at age 14. From that moment, she forged ahead to earn her way. She talks about challenges and successes. Becca has passions that include travel, photography and lighthouses. You’ll hear her talk about those stories and be inspired. She likes looking through a camera lens and catch what is happening because she can see it. She says that her Jiu Jitsu was easier to learn because she photographs tournaments and sees where the hand is going and where the next move is coming. Tune In!
