As the owner of Joann’s Formal Wear, Future Five Star, and multiple thriving businesses, Paige has built a legacy rooted in confidence, leadership, and believing in people before they even believe in themselves.   If there’s one thing about Paige, it’s that she walks into every room with purpose, passion, and a personality bigger than life itself.

Episode 21 - Doing the Most Good: Faith, Service, and the Heart Behind Salvation Army Emergency Disaster Services

In this powerful episode of More To Me with Kennedy, I sit down with someone whose heart for service has deeply inspired me, my sweet friend Michelle from the National Salvation Army Emergency Disaster Services team.   It’s truly amazing how our worlds collided. Although we met through my journey of service with the Salvation Army, we quickly discovered we both come from the same hometown. Through this connection, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to learn more about Emergency Disaster Services and recently became certified to deploy alongside the Salvation Army during times of crisis and natural disaster.   As hurricane season begins and communities prepare for uncertain days ahead, this conversation dives into what it really means to be the hands and feet of Jesus during life’s hardest moments. From disaster relief and emergency response to faith driven leadership and serving with compassion, Michelle shares the heart and mission behind one of the Salvation Army’s most impactful ministries.   We also talk about National Donut Day, how individuals can get involved with Emergency Disaster Services, and the many ways the Salvation Army continues “Doing the Most Good” through service, outreach, and hope.   But what makes this episode so meaningful is the deeper conversation surrounding purpose. Michelle opens up about her personal calling into this field, the power of using your gifts to serve others, and why faith remains the foundation of everything she does.    Through media, storytelling, branding, and communication, she helps shine a light on stories of hope that deserve to be seen and heard.   This episode is a beautiful reminder that service changes lives not only for the people receiving help, but for the people willing to step forward and serve.   💌 Connect with Team More To Me   Instagram 🤍 @moretomewithkennedy   Kennedy 🤍 @kennedy.fewell   Guest 🤍 Michelle with Emergency Disaster Services through the Salvation Army”

Episode 20 - Beauty from Ashes: Finding Purpose Through Redemption

In this powerful episode of More To Me with Kennedy, I sit down with the incredible Heidi Zimmerman to talk about what it truly means to experience beauty from ashes.   Heidi shares her deeply personal testimony of walking through hardship and how the Beauty from Ashes program in Magee, Mississippi became the turning point that led her to healing, purpose, and a life rooted in Christ.    Now at 23, she is a full time student while faithfully serving within the ministry, living alongside and supporting new and expecting mothers, caring for babies through the night, and pouring back into the very community that once poured into her.   Together, we dive into the heart of relationships, restoration, and redemption. From conversations on overcoming addiction and trafficking, to rebuilding identity and finding hope, this episode reveals how God can transform even the lowest seasons into something beautiful.   We also explore the importance of volunteerism and nonprofit work, and how organizations like Beauty from Ashes are actively changing lives and communities for the better. Rooted in scripture, we reflect on Parable of the Good Samaritan, using both Heidi’s journey and our own experiences to bring this powerful message of love and service to life.   This episode is a reminder that no matter where you’ve been, there is purpose ahead. When we choose to love, serve, and surrender, God turns every story into something meaningful.   A heart lifting conversation that will challenge your perspective, strengthen your faith, and inspire you to serve others well.   💌 Connect with Team More To Me   Instagram 🤍 @moretomewithkennedy   Kennedy 🤍 @kennedy.fewell   Guest 🤍 @heidizimmerman
