  • Hey Friend,

    This week, I had the pleasure of chatting with Danielle LaBonté, a branding expert whose journey to becoming a graphic designer is as inspiring as her advice. While studying art history design in Italy, Danielle had an aha moment while working on her thesis. She realized she didn’t want to write about artists—she was called to be an artist. That calling wouldn’t go away, and it changed everything. As Danielle puts it, her professor was more passionate about her thesis than she was. That realization led her to do a complete 180—leaving her art history path behind and going back to school to study graphic design. Now, she’s on a mission to help others find fulfillment in their calling and build brands that tell their unique stories. Because, as Danielle says: "Your brand isn’t just a logo or colors—it’s the story you tell and the connection you build with your audience. Align your business with your purpose, and success will follow."

    Here’s what we covered:

    The foundational branding elements you need from day oneThe impact of a professionally designed logo on client first impressionsHow to create a cohesive brand identity (think colors, typography, and style!)Whether a great brand guarantees success—or if there’s more to the equationDIY branding: Is it a cost-saving move or a potential risk?Practical steps to launch a brand that stands out and connects with clients

    Danielle didn’t just share tips—she shared strategy. If you’re ready to create a brand that speaks to your ideal clients and sets your business apart, this episode is a must-listen. Hit play now and start building the brand of your dreams! 🎧

  • Hey Friend,

    This week, I had the pleasure of talking with Crystal P. Sherrill, and her story is such an inspiration! After 17 years in corporate, she realized her gift for organization, strategy, and structure wasn’t being fully used. Feeling creatively stifled, she made the bold decision to pivot and start a service-based business centered around planning, operations, and systems. 🙌🏽

    Crystal shared how hitting a standstill in her career turned into the breakthrough she needed. Her journey is a powerful reminder that when one door closes, the right one will open—if you’re willing to walk through it.

    As Crystal puts it, “Sometimes we can over-spiritualize things… God is telling us to make a move, and we won’t make the move because we’re looking for confirmation after confirmation.”

    In this episode, we dove deep into the operational secrets that can transform your business. Here’s what we discussed:

    The 6 critical areas of operations every service-based entrepreneur needs to masterHow to position your business for maximum impactWhy processes and procedures are your secret weaponPractical strategies for building a sustainable, scalable business

    Key Takeaways That Will Change Your Business:

    Your business is NOT about you—it’s about serving your audience.Start small: write one process per week.Don’t rush to hire until you have clear processes in place.Treat failures as R&D opportunities.Create clear boundaries and policies from the start.

  • Hey Friends,

    Life can get crazy, right? But what if those tough seasons you're navigating could become the catalyst for your biggest dreams? Yes, it’s possible—and in this episode, I’m breaking down exactly how to make it happen.

    I’m sharing: - How to create a business even when life feels overwhelming - Lessons from my last 40 days of business transition - Biblical wisdom for building amid chaos

    Here’s a sneak peek at the 4 game-changing strategies I covered:

    1. Be Still and Recognize God’s Presence - When it gets tough, stay connected. - You’re not alone—the Holy Spirit is right there with you.

    2. Replace "Work-Life Balance" for a Priority Mindset** - Life isn’t about perfect balance—it’s about focusing on what matters right now.

    3. Create Small Pockets of Time to work on your priority - Use just 15 minutes a day to consistently chip away at your goals. Small, consistent steps lead to big wins.

    4. Move Quickly When God Says Go - When inspiration strikes, act on it. Don’t let fear or overwhelm hold you back.

    Sometimes your biggest breakthroughs happen in the middle of the storm.

    God has already equipped you to start that business—it’s time to step into it, even if life feels messy. You’ve got this!

  • I had the privilege of attending the UNRESTRICTED Conference hosted by Dr. Latanya Moore last weekend in Dallas, TX. My biggest takeaway was I cannot neglect my prayer life or time spent in God’s presence. The work done internally through prayer is what produces the results we seek externally. My second crucial takeaway was the importance of constantly coming into agreement with God’s word. As Kingdom Entrepreneurs, it’s essential to agree with God’s word through prayer.

    In today’s episode, I share 3 scriptures you need to pray regularly as a Kingdom Entrepreneur to ensure your business aligns with God's agenda.

    When you agree with God’s word in prayer, you trigger a divine process to fulfill that word.

    During this conversation, I discuss:

    Isaiah 6:10, Matthew 13:15Ephesians 3:16Proverbs 19:21

    Key Takeaways and Lessons:

    Guard against spiritual blindness through prayerDraw strength from God’s unlimited resourcesSurrender your plans to God’s purpose

    Tune in to learn how these scriptures can transform your business and spiritual life.
