Start your work week with these words (say them out loud).

I am loved.
I am enough.
I have the mind of Christ.
& I am capable of extraordinary things.

Come back to this whenever you need it. 
Have a great week!

Fam, I’m gonna hold your hand when I say this:

It’s not about having a niche. 

It’s about documenting what God is doing right here, right now.

Ad Christian creatives, we get the privilege, not just make content but to build an archive. We get to scribe how God is showing up at this time in history. 

We are called to tell of His goodness, not just by word-of-mouth, but by showcasing it in a creative fashion for all to see.

It’s Matthew 5:16, but in social form. 
So grab your light & just scribe. 📝 

Shoutout to @mslorijoe for coining the term “modern day Lukes”. It’s been stuck with me ever since.

Collaboration has been one of the greatest investments I’ve made in my creative journey. 👉🏽

In a world that constantly tells us to compete, I’ve learned that some of the best work happens when talented people choose to create together.

Every photographer, videographer, designer, creative director, and storyteller I’ve had the opportunity to work alongside has brought a different perspective to the table.

Different eyes. Different experiences. Different strengths. And because of that, the final product has always been stronger than anything one of us could’ve created alone.

The creative industry doesn’t need more gatekeeping..it needs more open doors, shared opportunities, and people who are willing to say, “Come build this with me.”

So here’s your reminder:
🤝 Credit your collaborators.
📣 Recommend other creatives.
🎥 Second shoot when you can.
💡 Share knowledge freely.
✨ Celebrate each other’s wins

Your network isn’t just who you know…it’s who you’re willing to grow with.

Tag a creative you’ve loved collaborating with lately. Let’s give people their flowers. 💐 

I tagged mine in each slide! 🤝

New month (and about 100 new faces in my corner of the internet) so… Hello!

My name is Chelsea (or Chels) and I love talking to people about well…everything (see examples in this reel). 

I believe God sent me here to care and connect in a way that is unorthodox. 
I suppose that’s why I have ADHD 🤔 

If you’re any of these: 
- Curious
- Quirky
- Intentional 
- Creative
- or Looking for a place to rest your noggin

You’ve come to the right place. Pull up a chair, grab your bevy of choice and let’s talk. 💬 

This is ChelsChatter

Random Question: What’s your favorite style of decor? 

OH! And Happy ADHD Awareness Month!

You gotta stop chasing what God is removing.

We pray, “God, order my steps”…until His order includes an exit we didn’t ask for. 🚪…🚶🏽‍♀️ 

A relationship ends. A door closes. An opportunity disappears.
Something that once felt right suddenly does NOT fit anymore.

Our first instinct can be to chase it.

But what if the loss isn’t punishment? What if God is making room?

Think about a rainbow. 🌈 You can’t experience one with sunshine alone. For a moment, the clouds have to roll in. The rain has to fall. The sun has to disappear from view.

Not because the sun stopped existing…but because the conditions are changing.

Perhaps that’s where you are right now. 🤔 

Just because you can’t see what God is doing doesn’t mean He stopped working. And you don’t have to keep running after what He allowed to leave just because you haven’t seen what comes next yet.

“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.” Ecclesiastes 3:1

Some seasons are for bringing in. Some are for releasing.

So let it rain! Let God prune as things change.

The rainbow comes AFTER the rain. 🌈

Don’t get so busy chasing yesterday’s sunshine that you miss the promise God is revealing next.

Yes, I tried to put my workout glove on the wrong hand. No, we will not be cutting that out. 😭

One thing I’ve learned about being neurodivergent is that constantly trying to appear “normal” is EXHAUSTING.

And I REFUSE to make social media another place where I have to mask.

My brain is gonna brain. 
I’m going to forget stuff.
Mix things up.
Go on a tangent.
Laugh at myself. 🤣
Get REALLY excited about something random.
And occasionally need a few extra business days to figure out why the glove isn’t gloving. 🫠

But that’s me.

Social media became a much safer space for me when I stopped trying to create a version of Chelsea that was more polished, more palatable or easier for people to understand.

Psalm 139:14 reminds us that we are “fearfully and wonderfully made.”

That includes the parts of you that don’t always fit neatly into everybody else’s definition of “normal.”

So if you meet me offline, there’s no character reveal. What you see here is what you get there.

This is your reminder to be yourself ALWAYS.

The people God intends your story to reach don’t need the carefully manufactured version of you.

They need YOU.

Love you! K byeee 💚

When in doubt, order wings. 🍗

Spent yesterday afternoon with some peeps at @rvawingwars!
Over a dozen chefs offered up their poultry masterpieces in every form imaginable.

We ate, drank and channeled our inner food critic deciding who would earn the trophy. 🏆 

To point to the artsy that is Richmond, they had screen printing. Can’t wait to show off my new tote at work! 👜 

Needless to say I left full of belly and spirit for fun events in my own back yard.

A HUGE congrats to the winners and to the organizers for another SOLD OUT year! 🍗 

Are you a drums or a flats person? Let’s chatter 💬

Last Sunday in September, first Sunday of Autumn 🍂 

Swipe to see how church was. 👉🏽
#lifestyle #chelschatter #christianblogger #rvacreator #churchrecap

Pop signs are one of my favorite new age church tools. 
Little message, big impact. 

Featuring some of my favorites from @wearetlcworship

@_deniaaaaaa is a prime example of a spiritual being living a natural experience. Thanks for always giving God all that you have…and inviting us to do the same. 🙌🏽

What’s Sunday without a selfie? 👀 
Hey aunties! 🫶🏽

@_pariswoods & me when we know people are looking.

My favorite thing about @jairodbarnes is that He is going to leave you with a laugh and a word every time you talk.

@vernongordon preached on boundaries today. 

If you think this word is not for you, it is.

@_pariswoods & me when we think people are NOT looking.

Just because it’s HARD doesn’t mean you’re not supposed to do it. 😮‍💨

Sometimes we pray for God to make things easier when He’s saying, “I’m going to make you stronger.”

Obedience can be hard.
Starting over can be hard.
Setting boundaries can be hard.
Learning something new can be hard.
Doing the thing God called you to do while you’re STILL nervous about it? Mannnnnn. HARD.

But difficult ≠ impossible.

Philippians 4:13 says, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

That verse isn’t a promise that everything will suddenly become easy. It’s a reminder that when God calls us into something that stretches us, we don’t have to rely solely on our own strength to get through it.

So DO THE HARD THING.

Do it nervous, imperfectly…do it one tiny step at a time.

And when your strength starts looking a little suspicious? 😂 Lean into His.

What hard thing are you trusting God to help you do right now? 
Shoutout to @the_mtmstore for apparel that reminds me of this every day. 🥹♥️

Sometimes growth looks less like a dramatic breakthrough & more like catching yourself mid-reaction. 😮‍💨🐟

You know that moment…

You’re about to respond the way you ALWAYS respond.
Assume the worst…Get defensive.
Overthink it into a multi-part documentary series. 🤭 

then the Holy Spirit taps you on the shoulder like, “Now fam…we’ve talked about this.”

That pause matters so much!

Why? You cannot surrender a pattern you refuse to recognize.

Romans 12:2 reminds us to be “transformed by the renewing of your mind.” And sometimes that transformation happens one tiny interruption at a time. That’s when God helps us recognize an old thought, habit or reaction and choose something different.

Self-awareness isn’t the destination. It’s an invitation to ask:

“God, now that You’ve shown me this…what do You want to change?”

Growth isn’t always out loud. Sometimes it’s simply realizing:

Oh. I don’t have to respond like the old me anymore. 🥲

And THAT changes things.

What’s a pattern God has been helping you recognize lately? Let’s chatter. 💬

Cleaning out my camera roll. 
Swipe for some stories 👉🏽

👆🏽 Adulting where you grew up gets its sweetness from supporting those you love right in your own backyard. @huebj is doing amazing things at the Red Shield Youth Center.

Nothing screams it’s getting cold like a pair of Docs. 🥾

Are bathroom mirror pics still a thing? 👀

Thoughtfulness is rare these days. Be limited edition.

Sundays result in at least 1 of these. 
I’ll never be perfect or a perfectionist.

Creative buddies create synergy in unimaginable places. 
Innovation is limited without them.

Stop looking around.
Go (forward) with God, Crispy.
