Summary

Behind the glitz and the glam, Maxie J’s story is one of risk-taking behavior and radical faith. As a fashion entrepreneur, designer, and business owner, she gets real with host Sarah Jakes Roberts about how her love for fashion and confidence in her creative vision showed up early, long before validation ever did. After deciding corporate life was cute, but not the assignment—our good sis decided to go rogue and bet on herself, walking away from a 9-to-5 with severance in hand. But how did it really play out? In this conversation, Maxie J takes us through the ebbs and flows of entrepreneurship in a way that will ignite anyone building a purpose-driven career. The moral of the story is, your gift will make room for you, but you’ve got to go after it and trust God along the way.
