The Secret to Taking Action with Debra Fileta
Manage episode 431214469 series 2390671
Welcome back to Smart Girl Summer. Today, I'm with one of my favorite smart girls, Debra Fileta. She is an amazing counselor. She is an author many times over. She's a speaker, and she runs a network of Christian counselors. She's absolutely brilliant, and she is so kind, gracious, and loving.
Today, you’ll get to know her a little bit more and learn how she got to where she is. You know I'm obsessed with the behind-the-scenes and all the things that nobody ever gets to talk about. That's what we're doing today, and I think you'll love it.
Debra Fileta is a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in dating, marriage, and relationship issues, along with a spectrum of mental health disorders and issues. She is also a speaker, and host of Talk to Me and the Love + Relationships podcasts. She is the author of six books, including her latest, RESET: Powerful Habits to Own Your Thoughts, Understand Your Feelings, and Change Your Life.
Join Debra and I as we talk about:
- Debra’s background and journey
- Our fear of striving, where it comes from, and what to do about it
- Living intentionally and taking action
- Faithfulness to what is in front of you
- Healthy parameters with social media
Favorite quotes:
3:33 - “It's this idea of do you wait on God or do you take action as if they're two different things. But to me, waiting on God is a posture of my heart. It's not a passive posture. It's not sitting around twiddling my thumbs. It's being intentional and moving towards Him.”
4:14 - “I am responsible for doing all that I can do with the talents that God has given me, and then He's responsible for doing all that He can do. And when we both do that, really good things can happen.”
8:17 - “Living intentionally is living how God wants us to live.”
15:35 - “It takes that faithfulness to what's in front of you and then always going back to why am I doing this to begin with? Why am I actually doing this? I'm doing this because this is what God has called me to do. I'm doing this because I have a message that He's placed on my heart. And if I really believe that, then I need to be a good steward of sharing that message.”
27:42 - “Sometimes, the most thriving ministries are the ones that are the best in their business mentality because it's about growth. It's about being good stewards of what you have been given, not just winging it.”
31:55 - “I also feel like the more the Lord gives me, the more intentional I need to be with keeping my heart in the right place and just holding onto that attitude that this is really for Him.”
Recommendations (34:06 audio)
This week’s recommendation is an amazing foundation by IT Cosmetics - Bye Bye Foundation. It is what I love. It’s a broad spectrum SPF 50 that actually looks great on your skin. It’s very moisturizing and gives me an extra layer of sunscreen on my face.
For fun additional recommendations that come out from me once or twice a month, with books I’m reading, movies I’m watching and makeup I love, go to Alliworthington.com and take a quiz or download something free to get these Good Things emails, if you aren’t already receiving them.
