More with Nikki Dutton

Lisa Jennett (aka Sunshine) is someone that was at the top of my list when I dreamed big about future podcast guests. Little did I know she would actually say YES and come on the podcast so soon! One of the most compelling things about Lisa has to be the stories she tells and the words she wraps around the way she sees life. Lisa owns her own landscaping company here in the Dallas-Fort Worth area that grew up out of a challenging season in her life as a single mom. Years later, she is now married to Tank (one of Scott's favorite people in the world) and they have both been a highlight for us during our chapter here in Texas – which you'll hear more about in the episode. She's also written a book called, When I Last Saw Me: The Memoir of Sammi Bass that you'll love.

Lisa has a business called Cheers + Amen that exists to empower good ideas and encourage people with what is created (linked below) and this episode embodies that heartbeat through and through. Happy to introduce you to a woman who I admire greatly!

Over that last four years I have had the privilege of being a graduate student in the first-ever Propel Women cohort as a part of the Wheaton College Master's Program. As a cohort of 20 women, we have been pursuing a Master's Degree in Evangelism and Leadership. I am amazed at all I have learned and the community of women I have gained as a student in this program. After wrapping our very last class recently, I thought it would be fun to invite Taylor Carlier and Aubrey Sampson, two incredible friends I have met through this program, to talk a bit about our experience together. So if you are interested in continuing your education somehow, curious about the Propel Women + Wheaton College Graduate Program specifically, or just looking to listen in on a conversation with friends – you'll enjoy this episode.

This episode features my favorite human on the planet – my husband, Scott Dutton. In this conversation you will get to hear Scott and I retell the story of how we met, share a handful of memories from when we were first dating and engaged, plus a Q+A with Scott. It's official, this has become my favorite episode so far and I think you'll like it too.

What would our world look like if people were simply raised to be kind? Today, I have the honor of introducing you to one of my closest friends, Kelsey MacMinn, as she discusses what she's learned about raising kind humans (and being one). Kelsey has her master's degree in clinical psychology and has served as a director for a daycare the last three years, plus she has two toddlers of her own with her amazing husband, Ben. Whether you have children of your own or you're the cool aunt/uncle—this episode is one of my favorites so far.

SURPRISE! I thought I'd try out adding a couple bonus episodes into the mix. Bonus episodes will be about 10-15 minutes which makes them the perfect length for listening to while you drive to the grocery store, walk your dog, or brush your teeth. This bonus episode highlights five things I'm grateful for currently—hopefully it inspires you to make your own short (or long) list.

This episode features a new friend of mine that I was introduced to by our first podcast guest, Trudy Cathy White. Kylie White shares her story and highlights a few of the plot twists along the way that have prompted a shift in perspective. Plot twists and reorienting perspective is certainly something we can all relate to over the last 12+ months (and beyond). In this conversation, Kylie shares what it has practically looked like to find more in her faith, family, and everyday life. I can't wait for you to listen to this incredible story.

Wow, wow, wow. Each podcast episode starts with a plan and every interview comes with a list of prepared questions, but this conversation exceeded all expectations. This episode of the More with Nikki Dutton Podcast features Melodie Malone from Passion Music and focuses on worship: what is worship, how to worship well after one "unprecedented" year at home, and how to reignite your personal space of worship if it feels dry. Melodie Malone is one of the worship leaders with Passion Music, and for the last few years, has been one of the lead voices at the Passion Conference. In this conversation, you get a glimpse of who Melodie is one-on-one—which is completely true to who she is when she is leading  on stage.

Incredible Sound Editing (and coaching for how to record an interview) by Luke Wilson at Veritas Podcasting

We all had hopes that at 12:01am on January 1, 2021 we would magically step out of the change and challenges of the last year. Like, straight-up fairy godmother disappear. Yet, here we are at the end of January and many of us are still sorting through the effects of the last 12+ months. This episode is not a rant on 2020 but it is an attempt to wrap language around the toll that this collective experience of the last year has had and gives thought about what the next steps of moving forward could be.
