I had the pleasure of interviewing DeAnna Kane, the founder of The Heart of Hospitality magazine, on my latest episode of the Heart of the Matter podcast. We delved into the importance of hospitality and creating connections in our communities. Here are 3 key takeaways from our conversation:

1️⃣ Hospitality is about more than just serving food and drinks. It’s about creating a genuine connection and relationship with others. By making people feel special and valued, we can foster a sense of community and support.

2️⃣ Hospitality doesn’t have to be elaborate or expensive. DeAnna introduced the concept of “fast food hospitality,” which embraces quick and easy ways to stay connected. Whether it’s dropping off a coffee for a friend or scheduling a short phone call, these small gestures can go a long way in maintaining meaningful relationships.

3️⃣ Women need other women in their lives. In a world where it’s easy to brush off surface-level conversations, we must take the time to really connect with and support one another. Through events, parties, and celebrations, we can uplift and celebrate the women in our lives.If you’re looking for practical tips, ideas, and inspiration on hosting events, parties, or even just creating a warm and welcoming home, I highly recommend checking out The Heart of Hospitality magazine. It’s an online publication that offers a treasure trove of information and resources for all your hospitality needs!
