In this reflection, I explore what it looks like to create in alignment with God rather than chasing approval or algorithms. In a world that rewards speed, visibility, and noise, this reflection is about choosing something more meaningful: depth over speed, substance over views, and alignment over trends and metrics. If you’ve felt the pressure to perform, please others, or seek validation, this conversation is for you. At the heart of it, we are all creators, called to be an extension of the One who created us. This episode is about partnering with that truth. I pray that it blesses you and speaks to you exactly where you are 🤍

“Let us make man in our image, after our likeness.” – Genesis 1:26. God spoke these words when He created the world. You were designed to create because you were made in the image and likeness of the Creator.

This episode is for every person who feels that stirring or nudge in their heart to create—to embrace your small beginnings, even when they’re messy, weird, and imperfect. God knows mine were. I share my early beginnings with Grace of Belle—the not-so-graceful start, the failures, and the transformation into what it is today. And yes, I reveal the story behind the name.

I pray it blesses you and inspires you to shine the light God has placed within you. ✨
