WE ARE LIVE! What a moment with @essence_says . ✨ Essence opens up about how the very things we’re called to can also ensnare us. For creatives, so much depends on how people show up and respond — and that can make it easy to blur the line between who you are and what you do. This conversation serves as a vital reminder for anyone on the journey of purpose, calling, and identity to stay planted in God not Man. Thank you @essence_says for sharing your boundless wisdom and insights with us. Incredibly grateful for your, YES. Full episode LIVE on @gardenmedia___ Listen on Spotify, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts.

@akilbuggs I really like this. Someone who has always struggled with walking the narrow path vs the wider path. Profound disappointment in humanity’s propensity towards greed, selfishness, and harm. Enlightenment can be realizing that through these trials I keep a level head and even keel. At night I can go to sleep not needing to make an amends. Faith I guess is that these tests bring unseen rewards now or later. Daily gratitude lists. Time heals wounds, scars can be beautiful and inspirational.

@ithinkitsmybelly Love this-Some people love it w hen you don't change and when you stay conformed and not transformed for the better because they are comfortable with that. Transformation is growt and growth is normal, unapologetic, and of God.
