Mick Unplugged · Amber Butaud | Merging Faith, Creativity, and Entrepreneurship · 26 Dec 2024 podcast

If you run your own business or if you work and you are achieving and doing, you will always have chaos of the hustle. Right. So you go, what trumps that? So my kids are one of those things that trumps that. So if a kid calls in my book, we're going to take a pause for I'm going to answer. OK. So that is an important relationship to me. So I put in the very important things to me.

And I know that before I ever start my day. That's something I determine before I even start going. Because if you don't determine it before you start going, life will determine what happens. That's how that works. So there's something you got to say, okay, so my health and fitness is important to me.

That's another big rock because only as healthy and as good as I am mentally, physically, and spiritually, that's when you bump into me, that's what you're going to get. So if I'm not doing right on that, so that's something I put in. So I think it's really sitting down and assessing practically what are

The things that are going to trump the chaos in your life and say those are the important things to me Those go to the top even when bad happens like I was just in a horrible wreck the other day Thank you. Jesus that I wasn't hurt but I'm devastated on the side of the road. Okay. I'm just car total terrible. But the man who hit me was completely shaken up.

I didn't know anything about him or nothing. I could have chose to just be like, it was his fault. I mean, well, the wheel of his car fell off and like hit the front of my car and told, and it was really bad. I could have been like, ah, you know, super upset and just frustrated with it all. But I just kind of went over to him and I was like, Hey, I'm so sorry that this happened.

And I'm just glad neither one of us are hurt. And my car's named the Holy Spirit. So I kind of feel like we were protected today. So we'll give thanks to that. But we do have some responsibilities we have to do by changing information and all the things. And so we did that. And he ended up being ex-military. He was on his way to his first job out of the military and was completely shaken up.

At that point, you have options to be kind and nice and say, you know what? This trumps what I actually feel like I want to do. Relationship and kindness and goodness trumps what I really feel like. And I think those are things that you determine before you start your day. Like I choose goodness. I choose kindness. I choose family.

I choose the things that are most important to me today over what could happen. And so I prayed over him and we spent time and you know, chose to say, Hey, it's a car where we can, we can work out the details right over time. And so it's just things, but I think relationships are more important than things.

And I think that's something that I put at the top of my, my list along with my, my business and my children and my relationship and my health and, Things like that. So I think it's starting your day, knowing what is your big rock. What are the most important things that you're going to put in front of life that happened?

And I think everybody looks at life a little differently. My grandmother used to tell me also when I was younger that maybe you should probably slow down and smell the roses sometimes. And I do think it's important that you enjoy. But I turned to her probably I was maybe 13. And I looked at her and I said, I think some people were created to pick the rose and smell it on the way.

I'm like, there may be another pasture of more roses. We can't just take the one. We got to keep moving. We got to keep going. Enjoy it as we go. And that's that integrating, I think, kind of way. As you grow, as you go, you're always kind of weaving that together as you keep moving, as you keep persevering. We started off saying, what gave you that ability?

What gave me that ability to keep persevering? It's that, it's that very thing. Just don't stop. Don't get stuck in something. Don't get stuck in the victories and don't get stuck in the failures. Just take all of it as an experience to keep moving forward and keep putting one foot in front of the other. And eventually you'll arrive.

If you just wake up and do the next right thing every day, wake up and do the next right thing that's in front of you and you'll end up in the right thing.

So The Life of Me was a feature film that I did in Tennessee. I lived there for two months and shot and produced that there. And that was UPtv's first original feature. Great, great crew, cast, everybody. And then Multiplied is an episodic series that is super fun and so cool. It went to theaters in May. We made it into a feature just to go to theaters.

And then now it's a five-part episodic series that you can get on for the One Studio app. So you can go to the App Store, download the app, watch all five episodes there. There's more content coming. Taking Ground is another episodic series that we just finished. I think it will hit.

Yeah.

No, I think we were so close. You were so close for that one.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was just shot and filmed. And so it's in post right now being edited. I think it's going to come out January. And then also we have The Delusion, which is a trilogy book series that we just did the audio drama on. It is in post-production too right now. It will also go to the app. Just super great, great projects that are coming out. Super talented people that I've...

Absolutely loved working with. They have been so great and so fun. I think everybody's really going to enjoy them. And, you know, everybody's like, does everything you touch have to be faith-based? And I'm like, no, but it does have to make the world a better place.

So if you watch anything that we do from here, I hope that you leave with a perspective that makes you want to be better and do better in this world. And so that's the criteria that has to be met in order for us to be a part of it. And all of the pieces that we have do that.
