Episode 2: From Chaos to Clarity—Building a Brand with a Firm Foundation
Ever feel like your business is all over the place?
In this episode of Created for This, Julie Thomas Wagner shares her honest journey from trying to be everything to everyone—as a photographer constantly hustling and feeling drained—to finding peace, purpose, and clarity by building her brand on a solid, Kingdom-focused foundation. Julie opens up about the chaos of her early days: saying yes to every client, juggling different types of photography, and feeling like her brand was a mess.
The turning point? Pausing the hustle, praying for direction, and narrowing her focus to serve the clients she was truly called to help. That shift—from building on sand to building on rock—changed everything.
Inside this episode:
• Learn why clarity (not hustle) is the key to a thriving, purpose-driven brand.
• Discover the four cornerstones of a Kingdom brand foundation: surrender, assignment, values, and consistency.
• Hear Julie’s take on the Mary vs. Martha story—and how to break free from the pressure of hustle culture.
• Get three practical, actionable steps you can take this week to move from chaos to clarity in your own business.
You are also invited to our new brandFORWARD Mastermind—a 5-day intensive to help you cut through the noise, find your brand’s true direction, and build something lasting.
