70: Rebecca Smith | Better Life Bags

The founder of Better Life Bags, Rebecca Smith, joins me to talk about growing Better Life Bags(BLB) from an Etsy shop to a large company that provides meaningful work for women in her community. We also chat about slowing down to get ahead, the mission of BLB and pursuing dreams in every season.  A Better Life: Slowing Down To Get Ahead by Rebecca Smith 4:40 Share a little of your faith journey with us.  When and how did you come to know Jesus? 9:34 Take us back to being a young married woman in Savannah, Georgia and how you ended up in Hamtramck, Michigan. "I was giving micro loans with each bag purchase to a woman who lived in a third world country." "We moved to Michigan to this little city called Hamtramck. Our point in doing that was we were going to live here for two years immersing ourselves in a different culture. This city is very diverse... There's 26 languages spoken here in two square miles." "I had never imagined myself going overseas for missions, but I knew God had this heart for the world and I was willing to follow if that was His plan for our life, but I was terrified."
