In this heartfelt and joy filled episode of Peace and Purpose with P, Perrine sits down with one of her closest friends, creative strategist and Forbes 30 under 30 honouree Bel Merid, for a vulnerable and deeply encouraging conversation on faith, identity and navigating purpose in a fast paced world.

Bel opens up about growing up in the church, learning from adults who poured love and confidence into her, and the moment everything shifted when she realised, as she beautifully says, “God does not have grandchildren.” Faith could no longer be inherited or borrowed. It had to become her own.

Together they explore:

• What it looks like to build a relationship with God on your own terms
• How boldness and confidence flow from faith and not performance
• Burnout, boundaries and learning to release control
• Why service brings true joy and why impact matters more than being impressive
• How God placed the right friendships and community at the perfect time
• The beauty of Sabbath rest and letting God realign your priorities
• Using social media intentionally as a tool for inspiration rather than comparison

Bel shares her story with gentleness, honesty and clarity, offering practical tools, faith anchored wisdom and the reminder that God meets you exactly where you are. Whether you are exploring faith for the first time or reconnecting after a long season, this episode is a breath of fresh air.
