I equip purpose-driven entrepreneurs and photographers to turn their story into connection—and their gifts into lasting impact.

hey friends, i'm katelyn

What a whirlwind of a weekend! Michael and I flew out Saturday evening and after meeting up with our dear friends Zach, Jody and Jaxon, we boarded our connecting flight to Champaign, Illinois! We were headed to the Reset Conference! This was my first time attending and speaking at Reset but from the moment we met Kellie and Rebekah, we were in love. These two had a dream and they made it happen.

Over 150 attendees came swarming through the doors on Sunday morning and the energy was high! It was HERE!!! We have been emailing about this for months and yet it was finally right in from of us! Michael and I got up early because Michael was in charge of the morning devotional. What some people don’t know about Michael is that he’s a GREAT public speaker. I absolutely love it when we get to go to a conference and we both get an opportunity to BOTH share. I loved watching Michael start off the conference by pushing people back towards a more balanced life and a life that is focused on what God is calling us to!

After Michael started off the morning, I had an opportunity to give our “Creating Community” talk. It’s one of my favorites because it’s explains the foundation of our whole business! I loved this group, I loved seeing new faces and I loved getting to share our story. I also LOVED getting to spend time with our sweet friends Zach and Jody. Zach inspires me to read more books and Jody shows us that it IS possible to have little kiddo and still travel!! One of the highlights of our time together was watching Michael with little Jax. They are now buds!!! …. And even though we aren’t at the kid phase, you have to admit, Michael looks pretty good with a baby. ;) Enjoy some pictures from our mini-trip!

So Michael and I were chosen to play “Password”… ya know, like on Jimmy Fallon. We almost bombed the whole thing… and then made a miraculous comeback at the end!

Kellie gave me the sweetest introduction…. that mentioned how she felt connected to me because we are both preacher’s kids! And they she went on to explain how sweet it was that no matter what she posted about the conference, my dad always shared it. :) He’s one of my biggest fans. :) But you can’t say things like that right before a girl has to speak! I was all teary!!
