How to Follow Your Calling with Lisa Bevere

Welcome back to our Smart Girl Summer Series, which features real conversations with real friends and colleagues about the behind-the-scenes of our careers and lives.  You definitely don’t want to miss today’s chat with my friend, Lisa Bevere. I’ve had so many valuable conversations with Lisa in my life, and I’m so glad to share one with you! This conversation is encouraging and affirming. I personally love Lisa’s perspective on giving up the fight for a seat at the table, and instead, focusing on doing what God has asked us to do. Oh, friends… I agree with her wholeheartedly about this!  Lisa Bevere is a wife to John, mom to four men, godmother, internationally known speaker, and New York Times best-selling author. She has spent nearly three decades empowering women of all ages to find their identity and purpose.  Listen in to learn more about: How Lisa never dreamed she would be doing the work she is doing now The importance of making exchanges in the lies we believe and how comparison can make us misunderstand God’s love for us These 3 truths: Smart girls know what to hold on to and what to let go of. Smart girls know who to give weight to in their life. Smart girls don't allow random strangers to assign value to you… and so much more! Favorite quotes: ~There’s certain things that when God drops into our hearts we need to actually  guard them.  There’s people that you should share them with and people you should not share them with . ~We have to think about social media as people being guests in your realm . They do not have the right to hijack it or take you emotionally hostage. ~If we have a revelation that God loves me uniquely then there is no place for comparison. Because comparison says,” I want to be like them or I want to have what they have or want to do what they do”  but if I understand that God loves me uniquely then I am going to take the time to find out what God has entrusted me with.  ~You have to be faithful in the season. The right thing in the wrong season becomes the wrong thing. ~When you are first starting a journey the things that you see on the road are different from an aerial view. ~Smart girls make sacred spaces in their lives. ~When we sense the Holy Spirit speaking to us , we have to add weight to it by adding action.
