Courtney Leatherwood took a big chance and a big leap of faith when she said "yes" to Sadie asking her to start working with her years ago — but that decision wasn't an easy one. What started as doodling and designing in her spare time has morphed into her role as LO's Brand & Creative Marketing Manager! Sadie and Courtney look back on those moments that will encourage others to take a big leap, and they encourage you not to be so quick to say "no" if something sounds too "far out." First, ask, "Am I willing to try?" Plus, how do we know when the voice of God speaks to us after we've sought His guidance? Saying "yes" even when you don't feel qualified might be the most freeing thing you could do! Sadie and Court remember some big "failures" in the early days of LO, but is it really a failure if they were growing, learning, and finding new ways to reach people? Sadie drops in a Lionel Richie quote that stuck with her: "If you win, you win; if you lose, you learn!" And don't miss the story about beignets!
