What happens when your creativity, your faith, and your healing journey collide?

In this powerful and deeply honest episode of God and Gigs, Allen C. Paul sits down with Dr. Laurette Willis—cognitive behavioral therapist, creator of PraiseMoves, and living testimony of God’s redemptive power—to talk about trauma, creativity, and what it really means to renew your mind.

Dr. Laurette shares her remarkable story of growing up surrounded by addiction and mental illness, spending more than two decades immersed in New Age spirituality, and eventually surrendering her life fully to Christ. Along the way, she unpacks how unresolved trauma can quietly sabotage a creator’s calling—and how healing must involve the mind, body, and spirit together.

Are you being faithful to your process, or are you just stuck in a loop?

In this episode, we answer the difficult question of what to do when you feel like your growth and impact has hit a ceiling. 

Many Christian creators feel guilty about changing their strategy because they believe consistency means doing the exact same thing forever. But there is a huge difference between healthy consistency and dangerous stagnation.

You'll learn in this episode how to honor your gift by making small, strategic adjustments instead of quitting entirely. 

You don’t have to change everything—you just need to stop repeating what isn't working.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The spiritual difference between  "faithful" and "staying stagnant"
• Why God honors thoughtful growth over blind repetition
• How to make "micro-pivots" to fix your workflow without breaking your momentum
• The warning signs that you need to adjust your content strategy right now

Could perfectionism and comparison ruin your greatest opportunity before you even get to enjoy it? 

If you let it, your desire to be 'perfect' might be the thing that robs you of the ability to show up confidently and authentically - and I (Allen) learned this from experience. 

I'm letting you into a vulnerable moment right before I spoke for an audience of podcasters at Podfest 2026, the largest independent podcaster conference in the world. In this honest reflection, you'll discover how perfectionism and comparison can stop you from showing up as the God-gifted artist and creator you are - which keeps others from seeing all you have to offer.

Are you making decisions about your life as a creator while being influenced by a mindset you don't realize you have? If so, you could be limiting your success and fulfillment as you pursue God's creative call - and it's all because you didn't stop to evaluate your creator operating system. 

In this episode, we unpack the 5 mindsets that govern everything you do as a Christian creative, and you'll learn how these mindsets can make or break your chance at success in whatever goal you are trying to achieve. 

Want to find out which of these mindsets you're operating in right now?
