On the next episode of “Dressing room photo shoot”: I’m reaching back in the collection to a locale somewhere on Rodeo Dr.

Birthday alert. Just one more day!

Thanks to my trainer for helping me stay ready so I don’t have to get ready. [Consistency 🫴🏽] 🤣

One thing I’ve learned this year is that it’s ok to celebrate yourself. Whew, that’s growth, y’all [2w3 especially].
So new year, I’m ready for you to come on in the room! We’re gonna have a blast!

Led a room full of fit creators through 3x HIIT class at John Reed for the @bioptimizers event, and I’ll be honest — I walked in expecting a “look cute for the gram” crowd. 😅

I was WRONG. These creators showed up and put in REAL work. Sweat, kettlebells, heavy weights — just pure effort the whole way through. Respect.

I built this class to hit every muscle group — moving from heavier lifts into complex Pilates-inspired movement — with a little partner work to keep the energy playful and the room connected. Programming the flow and setting the atmosphere is my favorite part of teaching: I want people to work AND have fun.

And yes — I curate my fit with just as much intention. What I wear sets the tone for the room too — fashion is language, even in fitness.

Huge thank you to @ccristina_fit and @j.smith___ for the sweet footage and to @nicki_durazo and @karina.nicoldine for pulling together such a beautifully run event. Can’t wait to try everything in this swag bag. 👀

Can’t wait for the next one. 🖤

I’ve read Shift Your Life by Apostle Joshua Giles twice so far — well, I listened to audio book, but you know what I mean. One thing he shared stopped me: he writes best at the beach, that’s where his creativity lives. I’m a linguistics professor — I study fashion as language, as a prophetic tool — and I’ve been sitting on a book about exactly that for years, hungry to finally release it. Reading his words, I knew what I needed wasn’t more time, it was the right environment. So I pressed my way from Dallas to the Barnes and Noble signing in Glendale California, to put myself in the kind of environment where the writing could finally move. And meeting the man behind the ministry that keeps accelerating me in the Spirit, conference after conference, book after book? Powerful doesn’t cover it.

Last year Mantle showed me God’s power through a healing in my body. I wondered how 2026 could top that. It didn’t try to — it went somewhere deeper. This year’s theme, Made for War, scared me a little at first. Last year’s A New Era felt like an invitation. This felt like a call to arms. But what I heard, over and over, from every apostle, prophet, and voice on that stage, was equipping. Nurturing the hearts of prophetic people who so often carry their gift in isolation.

I’ve spent most of my life in rooms that celebrated shepherds and teachers — and I love those gifts. But to be in a room where apostles and prophets operate in integrity and power, right alongside them? Something in me exhaled. All fivefold — apostles, prophets, evangelists, shepherds, teachers — fully present, fully honored. I got to step into the river of power the dancers were stirring up, hear new sounds in the spirit, and remember why I do what I do: so people would know God more deeply, and so every gift in the room — including mine — could find its place.

The prophetic doesn’t always come from a microphone. Sometimes it comes from your closet. Sometimes it’s a book you finally sit down to finish. Grateful for the shift. Again.

After Mantle 2025, I came home and the book I’d been sitting on for almost 10 years poured from my fingers. Now I’ve got momentum to send her into the world. Stay tuned. by @ask.drconner

Sunny days in Santa Barbara are kind of rare in May they say. May grey and June gloom is real as the fog and chill take the mountains. But Saturday was perfect! Hitting the farmers market with @ang.singer and closing the evening with fellow UCSB faculty and friends was a perfect way to play in SB on a sunny day ☀️

Also, SO to @itsjonwebster who I had the pleasure of bumping into on State Street! 🕊️
