Life Lately and the Book I Didn’t Expect to Write

Though I didn’t have words for it then, I know what it was now.

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 and blog is about partnering with that truth. I pray that it blesses you and speaks to you exactly where you are 🤍

A note on alignment, accountability, and creating with care. This is the January 27th Newsletter.

“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. I love my newest episode because it's 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. ✨

If you’d told me six years ago I’d one day be reading the Bible, let alone sharing about it, I wouldn’t have believed you. But in the summer of 2019, one book planted an unexpected seed that changed everything. 12 Rules for Life by Dr. Jordan Peterson challenged how I saw the world—and the Bible.

What started as a self-help read on my summer holidays turned into the beginning of a faith journey I did not see coming. If you’ve ever felt curious about scripture or wondered if it could have a place in your life, my story might be for you.
