    Episode Summary:

    This week on The Seed Sowing Stylist, Gracie is talking about  the different seasons we go through and how it might look a little different for everyone. Sometimes certain seasons are harder than others and we need to remember that if God called us to it, he will bring us through it. You never walk alone and Gracie describes how her current season has her focus on one thing. The challenges she’s had while letting other things that weren’t apart of this season lay on the back burner has taught her how to give herself grace when she needs it most. Gracie wants to encourage you and let you know that it is okay to be selfish sometimes when it comes down to having to focus on what God has called you to do.
