I love God, family, small business, creativity, women, waffle fries, and not having to wear real pants.
In college, I realized I wanted to work from home so I could have more flexibility when I became a mom. I got to work right away by starting a small Etsy shop and blog from the storage closet in my sorority house. It wasn't glamorous but it was fun.
Hi, I'm Jordan.
Five years later, that small Etsy shop grew into an internationally recognized sweatshirt brand and that dinky little blog led to bestselling books and publishing career.
I now have the honor of sitting on the Liberty University Business School of Advisors, and after seeing what's been possible in my own journey, I'm obsessed with helping women use their creativity and talents to create both freedom and flexibility in their life. Throw on your old slippers and hang around awhile. I think you’ll learn a thing or two here.

It ALL STARTED WITH AN ETSY STORE CALLED 'SOULSCRIPTS.' I'D RECRUIT ROOMMATES TO HELP ME PACKAGE AND SHIP ITEMS, AND IN BETWEEN CLASSES I'D MAKE POST OFFICE RUNS OR RESPOND TO CUSTOMER SERVICE EMAILS...
I started small. I had a lot of fun with it. And that's my encouragement to you as you pursue what you're made to do: Start small and have a little fun. Don't take yourself too seriously, k?

About 6 months after opening that little etsy shop, I got my own website with a blog. Between you & me, the "blog" started as my facebook captions copy & pasted onto a post... Sophisticated, I know
The blog was rudimentary at first but as I wrote and as my brand grew, I realized I loved writing & creating content more than I liked packing and shipping products...

about 3 years after starting a blog, I began to notice readers and social media followers were requesting that i started a podcast. It took me awhile to actually do it. I'd ask myself, "Will people even listen?"
In October 2018, I finally went for it & launched a show. It hit #2 across all categories on the Top Charts & amassed 1 Million+ downloads in the first 12 weeks. The rest is history.

About a year after having my first round of book proposals rejected by every publishing house back in 2016, I Got a "YES!" and signed a book contract with penguin random house. I rewrote the dang thing four times - fOuR!!
After 16 months of hard work, I released Own Your Everyday into the world on May 19, 2019. It hit almost every bestseller list, and I was so excited (but managed not to pee my pants).
