Every now and then it just strikes me.
That if Sister Maria Dominique hadn't had the courage and openness to start a fashion line together right before she entered the convent, if I hadn't had the courage to continue our mission, and if the women Litany has brought together along the way hadn't reached out and opened up about our hopes for the fashion industry...
I would still be living in the waiting room.
Not in hope, but a place of fear disguised as hope.
Never stepping forward, because then I couldn't "mess it up." Then there would always be the potential of Litany, but never the reality.
When God plants a seed in our hearts he gives us the grace, the hope, the strength we need to let it bloom. He places people in our lives who encourage us, who see our calling, and who help us nurture it.
I tear up every time I think about seeing the women in my life in the pews on my wedding day. I would not be who I am, where I am, or trusting in Whose I am without their love, their steadfast encouraging hearts.
Fear can exist alongside hope, but these women have shown me that hope will outshine it every time you trust in the promptings of the Holy Spirit and pour yourself into your heart's calling.
This is what I want Litany to be for every woman who finds us, reads our blogs, wears our scarves, or even just interacts with the other women who make up this incredible community.
A huge part of why I was able to actually take in these moments on my wedding day and be present to the grace all around was because of Kaitlyn from 🌱 When we first met and bonded over our shared hopes for women's hearts, I secretly hoped that we would get to work together one day, personally or professionally.
Beyond my sweetest hopes, we get to do both. Working with a fellow woman of faith to coordinate such a blessed day allowed me to turn off the performance part of my brain and just BE as I stepped into the sacrament of marriage with my spouse.
I want every woman to experience that freedom, and so we're collaborating to bring 3 brides who book a consultation call with her a little piece of Litany to carry them through their engagement 🤍
Any ideas? 👀
