Oh Happy Day Podcast

I was totally blown away by this interview with Camille Levi of BA Makeup Company! We talk about how to handle transition and conflict in business in a healthy, God-honoring way. If you are a conflict-avoider (me!), you will be so encouraged by Camille's example of how she prayed through a challenging time in her business. We also discuss loving ourselves with and without makeup, body image, and why you might need to try red lipstick! If you are a go-getter, goal-setter, checklist-maker then this one is for you! We wrap up with a little chat about not striving for our worth and the importance of rest.

BA Makeup company offers online courses for us regular folks who aren't makeup experts! You can learn from wherever you live from a true makeup professional - versus a teenager on YouTube. ;) Check out their site for all of their course offerings!  https://levelupyourlook.co/?fpr=aly59

In this episode, Karla Lim of Written Word Calligraphy shares how forging her parents' handwriting led to her interest in calligraphy, the importance of writing God's word, and hope for the anxiety that often comes with motherhood. We also chat about whether someone with bad handwriting can learn calligraphy and some fun products for those of us who are too indecisive for a real tattoo. ;) 

Note: We do briefly mention anxiety medication. It works for some, not for others. Both medication and healing can be gifts from God, so please continue what is working for your mental health.

In my conversation with photographer Sarah Westmoreland Green, we talk about everything from working during football season, her best wedding planning advice as a newlywed, and the importance of community in work, faith and marriage. We also chat about how she's my Instagram Reels inspiration and a fun story about what *appeared* to be a runaway groom. 

I loved this conversation with Australian photographer Naomi Zaki of Spirit and Truth Elopements! When she realized that elopements weren't getting the credit they deserve - particularly amongst Christians - she created an all-inclusive business to educate potential couples and take all the stress out of wedding planning for them. We also talk about the importance of obedience even when it feels scary, praying for your clients, and pop-up storms during the ceremony. I think you'll love this one, friends.

In this episode, floral designer Roxy Davis with Sweet and Lovely Co shares her wisdom on not being afraid of making mistakes, how she made the transition from wedding cakes to floral design, and all about her Instagram sabbatical. We talk about glorifying God in jobs big and small, her personal faith journey, and she even tells us how to correctly pronounce "peony." This is a note taker- she has such good things to say!

I chat with Dempsey of Water to Wine Hospitality about the inspiration behind her business name, some tips for aspiring wedding planners, and how God calls us to love people who are different than we are.
