In this behind-the-scenes solo, I'm sharing a real-time look at starting our family’s newest business, The Tide & Table Collection.

It’s messy, unfiltered, and honest — because starting something new is never linear. I'm opening up about the hurdles, the mindset shifts that kept me grounded, and why your “messy middle” is not proof you’re failing…it’s...

Embarrassing confession: I didn’t know who the Savannah Bananas were before moving to Savannah Georgia. (I know, right?!)

But if you really know me, you’ll understand why I am now a HUGE Savannah Bananas fan -- because it’s not just baseball for them. It never has been, since the very beginning!

If you know The Savannah Bananas, you know. But if you DON’T know them, well then get cozy because you’re about to hear their entire start-up story from today’s guest.

Today’s guest, Kelsey Orton and her husband Jared (President of the Bananas) were college sweethearts that took a crazy leap of faith as boyfriend + girlfriend, fiances, and then newlyweds when they decided to chase a dream together. In 2016, they helped in the startup of what was a brand new baseball team in Savannah Georgia.

You could say the entire thing was bananas!

Kelsey is also a business owner herself, as a luxury interior designer + the owner/founder of Tennyson Studio here in Savannah. Kelsey is a wife, mom, + a follower of Christ. Her story today is one you don’t want to miss! 

In this episode you'll hear:

  • They story of Kelsey, Jared, + the entire Banana team’s humble beginnings.
  • Kelsey's advice for dating + chasing dreams as a couple with Christ at the center of it all.
  • How to hold being a mom + chasing dreams at the same time -- including if being a mom IS the dream (the most divine calling, IMO!)
  • Why + how you need to trust God through all of life's ups + downs: career decisions as a college grad, dating, marriage, startup cultures, toxic work enviornments, becoming parents + more.
