Hey Friend, This week, I had the pleasure of chatting with Danielle LaBonté, a branding expert whose journey to becoming a graphic designer is as inspiring as her advice. While studying art history design in Italy, Danielle had an aha moment while working on her thesis. She realized she didn’t want to write about artists—she was called to be an artist. That calling wouldn’t go away, and it changed everything. As Danielle puts it, her professor was more passionate about her thesis than she was. That realization led her to do a complete 180—leaving her art history path behind and going back to school to study graphic design. Now, she’s on a mission to help others find fulfillment in their calling and build brands that tell their unique stories. Because, as Danielle says: "Your brand isn’t just a logo or colors—it’s the story you tell and the connection you build with your audience. Align your business with your purpose, and success will follow."Here’s what we covered:

I’m sharing: - How to create a business even when life feels overwhelming - Lessons from my last 40 days of business transition - Biblical wisdom for building amid chaos

Be Still and Recognize God’s Presence - When it gets tough, stay connected. - You’re not alone—the Holy Spirit is right there with you. 2. Replace "Work-Life Balance" for a Priority Mindset** - Life isn’t about perfect balance—it’s about focusing on what matters right now. 3. Create Small Pockets of Time to work on your priority - Use just 15 minutes a day to consistently chip away at your goals. Small, consistent steps lead to big wins. 4. Move Quickly When God Says Go - When inspiration strikes, act on it. Don’t let fear or overwhelm hold you back. Sometimes your biggest breakthroughs happen in the middle of the storm.

I had the privilege of attending the UNRESTRICTED Conference hosted by Dr. Latanya Moore last weekend in Dallas, TX.

In today’s episode, I share 3 scriptures you need to pray regularly as a Kingdom Entrepreneur to ensure your business aligns with God's agenda.
