This month on Proverbs 31 Creatives, we're diving into Strength and Dignity based on Proverbs 31:25. In today’s solo episode, I’m kicking off our June theme by getting real about my personal struggles with fitness, body image, and learning to steward my body as a temple of the Holy Spirit. I also take you through the powerful story of Deborah in Judges 4–5 and how her courage, wisdom, and obedience to the Lord embody the strength and dignity we’re called to walk in. If you’ve ever felt like your physical or spiritual strength was running low, this episode is for you. Let’s learn how to show up with boldness, trust the voice of God, and lead with confidence, just like Deborah.

 Scripture: Proverbs 31:25 & Judges 4–5

In this episode of Proverbs 31 Creatives, I'm joined by the talented photographer Kayla Johnson as she shares her powerful testimony of how God led her through a bold rebrand. What started as a thriving photography business turned into a ministry when Kayla felt the Lord calling her to make her faith the foundation, not just behind the scenes, but front and center. We talk about the fears, freedom, and faith it took to go all in, and what it means to be a creative who reflects Christ in every aspect of business. She is also a new mom, juggling the new born trenches, her business, and her relationship with the Lord. She shares her insights on what it’s like being a momma to a new born. If you're a creative entrepreneur feeling the nudge to be more faith-forward, this episode will speak straight to your heart.

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Holy Spirit-led breath coach Ali Levine for a conversation that will stir your spirit and ignite your faith. Ali shares her powerful testimony of deliverance, healing, and walking in full surrender to the Lord. We talk about what it really means to reclaim your peace, your identity, your authority, and your calling, and how the enemy tries to steal those very things through fear, anxiety, and distraction. Ali also breaks down the role of Spirit-led breath in inner healing and how breathing with the Holy Spirit can become a weapon of warfare in your everyday life. If you've been feeling weary, spiritually attacked, or stuck in cycles you're ready to break, this episode is your invitation to rise up and take back what’s rightfully yours.

Topics we cover:

• Holy Spirit breath for deliverance & healing
• Identifying what the enemy has stolen from your life
• How to spiritually take back your authority
• Surrendering control & breathing in God’s peace
• Boldness, breakthrough, and walking in divine identity

This one’s a firestarter, sis. Grab your journal, press play, and let the Lord breathe fresh wind into your spirit.

In this episode, I’m opening up about a part of my testimony I’ve never shared in full, my journey with alcohol and how God called me out of numbness and into intentional, sanctified living. This isn’t just about sobriety, it’s about surrender. About letting go of the things that dulled my spirit so I could walk fully in the freedom Christ offers. If you’ve ever wrestled with compromise, distractions, or secretly wondering if certain habits are holding you back from your calling. This episode is for you. Let’s talk about what it really means to live set apart on purpose.

What can God do with just a little? In this powerful episode, I’m joined by Sabreena Cobb, founder of Faith and Flourish Co, whose story is a beautiful reminder that when we offer God what we have, no matter how small. He can multiply it beyond our wildest dreams. Sabreena shares how she started with just some paint and her Bible, never imagining that God would breathe life into a business that now encourages women all over the world to grow in faith and creativity. We talk about obedience, faith in the unknown, and what it means to build something with Jesus at the center.

Whether you're just starting out or waiting on God to move, this episode will encourage you to trust His timing, steward your gifts, and flourish right where you're planted.

In this episode, we’re diving into the foundation of a Kingdom brand, what it truly means to build a business that glorifies God from the inside out.

What if true stewardship isn’t just about working hard but also about knowing when to rest? In this episode, we’re wrapping up our series on healthy stewardship by diving into a side of stewardship we don’t talk about enough, resting in the Lord’s presence. Sometimes, the most faithful thing we can do is to stop striving and trust that God is working even when we are still. Join me as we explore what the Bible says about rest as an act of obedience, how to surrender control and let God move, and why stewarding our energy, time, and trust is just as important as stewarding our resources. If you’ve been feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, or unsure about when to step back, this episode is for you!

✨ Listen in to learn:

• Why rest is a powerful act of faith
• How to balance work and rest as a Christian creative

Let’s stop striving and start trusting. God’s got this! 💛

Brittney shares how leaning on the Lord’s strength, sometimes hour by hour, can sustain us when things feel overwhelming. If you’ve ever wondered how to move forward while honoring what’s behind you, this conversation will bring encouragement and practical steps for walking in God’s strength. Tune in for a conversation on healing, hope, and holy stewardship.
