This week’s wisdom: Focus on what you can control, and let the rest go. Seriously. Let it go.Dawn and Ruth are breaking down the whole "circle of concern versus circle of influence" thing, which sounds fancy but really just means stop spinning your wheels on stuff that's out of your hands. Instead, find tangible ways to help, create, and show up for your people. It’s exactly what Ruth has been doing for FIVE YEARS with her ConseCrate subscription box (which is a whole milestone worth celebrating), these two are getting real about the challenges, the joys, and what it takes to build something that lasts. Five years of curating meaningful resources for church leaders? That's not nothing, friends.Oh, and they're spilling the tea on Dawn’s small group 'Discern by Doing for Business‘—a space where people start and sustain real, successful businesses by actually doing the thing instead of just talking about it. Revolutionary concept, right? So if you're feeling overwhelmed by everything you can't control, this episode's your permission slip to focus on what you can do.LINKS:Check out Dawn's coaching and groups at bigpicturebigpurpose.comConseCrate Subscription Box - consecrate.cratejoy.com00:00 Introduction and Welcome00:17 Halloween Festivities00:51 New York Trick-or-Treatingrate.cratejoy.com02:11 Circle of Influence vs. Circle of Concern02:27 Voting and Local Government04:02 Community Involvement and Despair06:39 Finding Joy Amidst Challenges09:46 Historical Context and Perspective10:56 Reflecting on the First Consecrate Box11:47 Lessons Learned Over Five Years12:16 The Evolution of Packaging and Shipping13:13 Gifts Beyond the Box14:10 How to Get the Anniversary Box14:31 The Consecrate Community16:07 Expanding the Business: Etsy Shop16:32 Future Plans and Business Insights17:55 The Joy of Entrepreneurship20:28 Celebrating Five Years and Looking Ahead
