Crazy eyes & messy hair because life’s been a bit of a whirlwind lately! I’ve been staying busy with lots of client projects and can’t wait to share all of the fun things I’ve been working on.

Unfortunately, I seem to have neglected Instagram and all of the nice content planning I’ve done has gone untouched. 🤦🏽‍♀️ One of the joys of being a business owner is balancing client work and doing the work it takes to grow a business- if anyone else has that down, let me know. 🤷🏽‍♀️😅

So in lieu of the nicely curated content I planned out... here’s a reminder that I still have some of these cutie cards left in my Etsy shop! Click the link in my bio and go get some cards to remind your pals how much you love them. 🌻

What a year for my home town! Way to go, Tampa. 🏆

Fun Fact 👉🏼 Until my adult life, I never saw myself as a creative.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Growing up, my dream was to be a dancer. There were seasons when I had other aspirations, but the through-line in all of my daydreams was to be a dancer. Now, today I recognize the creativity in dance and my creative nature, but I always saw myself as "just a dancer." I wasn't a painter, or someone who could draw, or had natural creative talent- just a dancer.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I remember so distinctly, though, the moment I first began to recognize how God wired and created me as a creative person. I was 18 years old and interning with the student ministry at my church. We were doing some deep dive, personality test type stuff and the topic of me being creative came up. One of the guys on staff looked me in the eye and asked "do you think you're a creative person?"⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It struck me to my core because my gut reaction was to answer "no!" But here were people who knew and loved me and saw something different in me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Since then, I've obviously come a long way. The Lord used my experience there and my next job to lead me to a career in graphic design- a career I would have never pictured myself in almost a decade ago. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
All that to say, don't limit what God can do with your life. I'm so thankful that He has gifted me with friends and family who see me for who God created me to be. Where I am today, at 26, is so wildly different from where I thought I would be or even planned to be when I was 18. God's plans are wildly and wonderfully better than anything I could dream up.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

What are some traits you've discovered and cultivated in yourself? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
