Rejoice in Suffering

Rejoice in Suffering

I'm back! I'm so excited to be on the mic again after a much needed break. A lot has happened since December 23' and I'm here to catch you all up on all of the things. Let me tell ya, it's been a whirlwind of events and January was not how I planned the beginning of 2024 to look like. Though, John 16:33 tells us that this life on earth isn't easy and we will face trials of many kind. It's through the trials that we lean in more & trust that the Lord has a plan, always. We can suffer and we will suffer but I pray this episode reminds you that you can rejoice in the suffering. I hope your 2024 has been amazing so far & I am SO excited for the wild ride ahead. Please DM me if you need any prayer requests for this week ahead! 🤍 xxx Follow Smile for 2 Minutes on Instagram: @smilefor2minutespodcast [https://www.instagram.com/smilefor2minutespodcast/] Connect with me on Instagram: @katiejanesmithh [https://www.instagram.com/katiejanesmithh/]

Step Into The New Year The Right Way

It's the most wonderful time of the year!! Seriously though, I love the month of December & being able to reflect on the last 12 months. 2023 is coming to a close and before the new year starts I like to prepare myself so I can step into 2024 the right way.

Meet the Smiths

The time has come... finally! My first guests on the Smile for 2 Minutes Podcast, my parents. It was so fun being able to just sit down at home with my mom and dad and chit chat. This episode is a little backstory on how they met, their marriage of 40 years, and wise advice for everyone listening. I hope you enjoy this episode and look forward to more guests in the future episodes to come :) P.S: Thank you mom and dad for everything, I love you. xxx Follow Smile for 2 Minutes on Instagram: @smilefor2minutespodcast [https://www.instagram.com/smilefor2minutespodcast/] Connect with me on Instagram: @katiejanesmithh [https://www.instagram.com/katiejanesmithh/]

Navigating the Holiday Season

Thanksgiving is coming up this week and the holiday parties are in full swing. If you have a bad relationship with food & your body, you're probably feeling overwhelmed and a little anxious right now. I get it, I have been there MANY of times. But I am here to help! I want you to ENJOY this holiday season because it's meant to be enjoyed. In today's episode I go through some tips that might help you get out of your head and be present so you can fully embrace this time & grow to love this season. Even if this isn't something you struggle with hopefully you'll find some golden nuggets to take with you (because I do mention a challenge for everyone!) I hope your holiday season is filled with so much love, joy, and peace.
