Hey, friend. Okay, I know I have some explaining to do. I'm sure you're thinking, what is going on right now? Is this not the God and Growth podcast? Or wait a second, why does the podcast. Why is it back to its old name? Okay, I'm going to have a longer podcast to explain all of this, but I just want to give you a quick summary so I don't leave you in the dark. I have been doing a lot of, a lot of praying, a lot of thinking and I feel like 2024 has just been the year of just lessons of God stripping everything away. Me going through an identity crisis. And it all led me to this realization that I am called to teach photographers. Hands down. That is my calling. I know that. I know that. I know. And so I am just so excited to just not be confused anymore. I still believe that I heard God correctly. When he asked me to take my hands off the business, he completely shut it down. And so everything that was has kind of been burned to the ground. And I am stepping forward into a new season with the help and the faith and all the things. I am in the process of rebuilding a photography education business 2.0. It is going to be better than it's ever been. My, my priorities are on point, my focus is right where it needs to be. And most of all, I get to serve you an incredible photographer that has been called to your business for a purpose. I'm so excited to bring back business strategy, marketing tips and interviews with incredible people and other photographers and all of the things. So I am so grateful that you are here. I promise that I am not crazy. I'm not losing my mind. It has just been roller coaster year. I've received so much feedback and you guys have been absolutely supportive and I can't thank you enough. So with that being said, we are going back to the book more clients photography podcast. But the updated branding is here and again, this is just better than it's ever been. And so I hope you'll stick around. I hope you're so excited. Come over to Instagram. We could chat about it more over there. And again I will release a long winded episode about what went down and give you the nitty gritty details on the next couple of episodes. Until then, I'll see you on the next one.
