"Winning the Unleash Scholarship in 2025 was more than just receiving financial support; it was a seed that helped me truly believe in what God had already placed inside of me. At the time, I already had the vision and desire to establish my business, but I needed the confidence, encouragement, and push to move from simply thinking about it to actually taking the steps to build it.

​

Unleash gave me the courage to invest in myself, my ideas, and the purpose God was calling me into. Dr. Brandi gave me such a soft, gentle, but firm push to truly unleash into my next. She reminded me that my gifts, creativity, and vision were worth pursuing and that I did not have to wait until everything was perfect to begin.

Since receiving the scholarship, I have been able to pour more intentionally into building my business and stepping into the work I feel called to do. I am still growing, learning, and trusting God through the process, but I can honestly say that the scholarship was part of the harvest that helped me move forward.

​

I am so grateful for the investment that was made in me, and I am excited to see how this scholarship will encourage other women to believe in themselves, take bold steps, and walk confidently into the next thing God has for them."
