What dream are you currently turning into reality?
Getting into full time music/creative work has felt less like turning something into reality, and more like following breadcrumbs. I would love to create things that connect on a deep level, and that make people feel seen. Whether it is writing a song or capturing a moment.
When did you first realize you discovered your dream?
The past five years of my life have been a discovery of what I love to do most. Looking back recently, I think I have been blessed to be doing my dream before I knew it was my dream.
How does your faith go hand in hand with pursuing your dream?
As I pray for His will to be my own, I have trusted Him with the open doors. I don’t really feel like I can take any credit for what I get to do.
What’s one or two practical steps you take to keep moving forward?
A piece of advice I was given is to keep acting on inspiration and finishing ideas- stagnant water is harder to get flowing again. Also, my calendar is my best friend.
What encouragement would you share with someone who’s going after their dream?
Comparison really is the thief of joy. Do your thing in the way only you could. I felt a lot less pressure after believing not everyone’s career has to look the same.
