Nearly 20 years ago, I walked away from a job I truly adored. I was racing around Center City Philadelphia, trying to find a FedEx dropbox still accepting late shipments... hustling to get “liquid gold” home (IYKYK).
I left with the hope that I could take a pause, focus on my growing family, and return when I was ready. What I didn’t realize was that God was doing something deeper... building me, preparing me. During those years, I learned how to work with my kids by my side... whether serving our community, volunteering in our church, or launching (and eventually selling) The Find.
Then, when my youngest started kindergarten, I got a call from a dream brand. It felt like the "moment" I had envisioned. But during the interview, a junior team member casually mentioned that being “all in” meant missing her daughter’s first birthday party. I heard God clearly say: “No, not this.”
That moment changed everything. Freelance work started flowing. My network turned into powerful partnerships. And I started to believe I could do this my way.
Then life threw down a serious challenge... the kind that shakes your foundation. That’s when I decided, I have to go all in. Even without the confidence. I asked God to show me I was on the right path. And He did.
Today, I have the absolute gift of working with emerging brands and growth-minded businesses who are building something meaningful.
It is possible to build a business on your terms. No, it’s not all dreamy Instagram filters. But yes... it’s possible to do work that honors your talent, your purpose, and your priorities.
Here’s to bold steps, God’s timing, and doing it on your terms.
