Ever felt like life handed you a rejection letter with bold, underlined, and italicized NOPE? Well, same here! In this episode of Love, Grace & Hustle, I'm getting real about my experience pitching the Pincer Pal on Elevator Pitch - where I walked in with high hopes and walked out with...well, just my carry-on luggage. But here's the thing: rejection isn't the end of the road; it's just a plot twist in the journey to success!

We'll talk about how to take those 'no's and turn them into motivation, why social media is your bestie (even when the algorithm plays games), and how God's plan is always bigger than our setbacks. (Romans 8:28, anyone?) If you're feeling discouraged, stuck, or like you need a pep talk with a side of humor this episode is for you.

You know, people often ask me, 'How do you keep going?' And the truth is... it's not always easy. But faith makes the impossible possible."

In this heartfelt episode, I open up about the real struggles of entrepreneurship—the doubt, the burnout, and the unexpected battles that come with chasing a dream. I share how faith and family have been my anchor, and how my daughter, Gracie, continues to inspire me every day. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or questioning your purpose, this episode is for you. And if you've ever thought about accepting Christ into your life—this is the one to listen to. Let’s talk faith, perseverance, and the power of never giving up!
