It’s OK to have an OK day! 
.

Here are  3 things that the Lord has been putting on my heart, that I truly believe are pillars to this brand and what it stands for:

1. It’s OK to be alone without feeling lonely! 
Deuteronomy 31: 8 states “The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged” What a blessing it is to know that our Lord our God will always be with us. Regardless of all the hardships, and all the struggles that you’re dealing with right now, you can reflect on this verse, and truly understand that the Lord is with you all the time!

 2. Smiling throughout the day, and reflecting on the good rather than the bad, makes a difference! 
Rather than just pointing out the negatives that happen in your life, PRAISE the positives! Acknowledging the hardships and struggles that you are enduring, but also understanding and writing down the positives in your day are truly a special way to connect with the Lord. Being able to differentiate those two things can make an impact on how you view how your day and how it has actually been going.

3. Proverbs 3:5-6. “Trust in the lord, with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways submit to him and he will make your paths straight”
Being able to trust that the Lord has a plan for your future is truly amazing. Although it may be hard and you may not know what the Lord wants for you, truly understanding that he does have a plan for you is super impactful. 

I don’t know what the future of @didyousmile.today and my other brand @fellowshipfits holds, but I truly believe that the Lord has a plan for it and he’s going to use me through these brands to make an impact on the community. 

I can’t wait to share all the exciting mini projects I’ve been working on with this brand and please don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re having an OK day :) 

I’ll leave you with these five words:
Don’t forget to smile today :)

✞ ☻ Thank you God for another incredible marketplace! Sharing this ministry to spread the gospel on my campus is a true blessing. 🙏 I pray that this brand continues to be used for God's glory to spread the good news through FELLOWSHIP and a positive SMILE ✞ ☻

It was an absolute honor to connect with everyone who visited my booth at the @ideagcu marketplace! This year, I'm blessed to be part of the leadership team, guiding young entrepreneurs in turning their ideas into reality into cash! 

DID YOU KNOW??? $5 from every purchase at our Fellowship Fits booth, no matter how big or small, goes towards supporting our Guatemalan sponsor child, Bruno. Thanks to your generous purchases, we are able to donate $185 from this marketplace! 

When you purchase Fellowship Fits products, you're not only helping support our sponsor child in Guatemala with education, housing improvements, healthcare, social work access, and heartfelt monthly letters from me, but you're also spreading the Gospel through FELLOWSHIP with friends, family, and the Father just by showing your FELLOW Biblical Bros and Spiritual Sisters that you're "Fitted 4 the Father!”

PHOENIX SUNS MARKETPLACE 

Almost a year ago, I had the opportunity to host a marketplace at the home of the Phoenix Suns and Phoenix Mercury! Still to this day one of the most surreal events I’ve organized! After months of planning we brought 30 entrepreneurs into the arena for a community marketplace. I’ve always believed that sometimes all someone needs is an opportunity and someone willing to believe in them. 

For me, marketplaces have never been just about selling products. They’re about giving entrepreneurs a platform to tell their story, make their first sale, meet their next customer, and realize their idea has the potential to become something bigger! 

That’s what made this one so special, seeing entrepreneurs who started at campus marketplaces walk into a professional sports arena with their businesses was a reminder of why I started organizing marketplaces. I’m incredibly grateful to the Phoenix Suns, all the Idea Club leaders who helped bring this vision to life, and especially to every entrepreneur who trusted the vision enough to show up and be apart of it!

One of the biggest things I’ve learned from building marketplaces over the years is that you never know how far someone can go when you give them a platform to start.
30 entrepreneurs. One arena. And a lot of faith in what could be possible!

Marketplace at the home of the PHOENIX SUNS was a success!

What started off as an idea turned into the top student vendors at GCU alongside some of the fastest growing startups in Arizona getting a chance to vend and showcase their business to the Arizona community! An afternoon full of creativity, connection, and community!

Thank you to every vendor, partner, and creative who made this marketplace a moment to remember!

$610,840.25 in revenue straight to students pockets!
472 vendors and student businesses activated!
23 marketplaces hosted!

Over the past two years, l’ve seen what can happen when students are given the right platform, the right resources, and the right community to bring their ideas to life. From those very first pop-up tables to thriving, full-scale brands, these marketplaces have grown into so much more than just events, they’ve become launchpads for bold ideas, creative visions, and real-world success.

And I’m committed to making an impact on every vendor’s life - to not only give you a platform but to walk alongside you in helping your business succeed. Your wins are our wins, and together we’re building something that lasts far beyond marketplace days!

None of this would have been possible without @ideagcu and the incredible platform we get to steward on GCU’s campus. Every vendor, every conversation, every handshake has been a step toward something bigger - creating a culture where entrepreneurship thrives and students see their potential in real time! 

To every vendor who showed up early, stayed late, hustled through slow hours, poured their heart into their craft - thank you! You are the heartbeat of these marketplaces, and your passion is the reason this community keeps growing.
I want to hear from you! If you’ve ever been impacted by a student marketplace - as a vendor, customer, or supporter, drop a comment and share your story! Whether it was your first sale, a connection you made, or the spark that pushed you to keep going, your experiences inspire me and everyone watching! 

But this is just the beginning. The same energy, creativity, and drive that’s been built here is about to spill far beyond the walls of GCU! I’m talking arenas, universities, and communities across America - all united by the mission to give everyday entrepreneurs the tools to succeed! (SO HYPED TO SHARE THESE UPDATES) The vision is national, but the heart will always be local. ❤️

I’m just getting started :)
