Featuring Angie Mikus & Courtney Blake
In this heartfelt episode of The Serving Effect, we sit down with two women who embody what it means to love your community well. Join us as Angie Mikus and Courtney Blake share the beautiful story of how the Garner community once rallied around Angie—and how she now pours that same love back into the people around her every single day.
From serving with a smile at Angie’s Restaurant, to hosting a community-wide Thanksgiving meal, Angie has made service her lifestyle. She knows your name, pulls up a chair when you walk in, listens deeply, and makes everyone feel seen. Her life is a reminder that service isn’t just something we do—it’s who we are called to be.
Angie and Courtney challenge us to slow down, look around, and recognize the opportunities right in front of us to strengthen, encourage, and serve the community we’re already part of.
If you’ve ever wondered what everyday service looks like—or how ordinary people make an extraordinary impact—this episode will inspire you to lead with heart, love, and passion for people.
Tune in and be encouraged to serve right where you are. ❤️
