Part 1: From Crystals to Christ: My Journey to Faith
May 03, 2024You may be wondering why you're receiving this email about my faith journey when you signed up for freelancing tips.
Let me explain.
I'm the person behind paidcopywriter.com, a site dedicated to helping freelancers succeed.
But what you might not know is that my journey to creating this platform is deeply intertwined with my radical transformation from a manifestation-obsessed New Ager to a born-again Christian.
For years, I was fully immersed in the world of new-age spirituality and energy work.
Crystals, the law of attraction, psychic mediums, and yoga retreats were my life. I even traveled to Costa Rica to become a certified yoga instructor.
Christianity seemed closed-minded and judgmental to me. But in 2020, my world turned upside down.
A near-death experience and the loss of my core friend group shook me to my core.
In the midst of my emotional rock bottom, I experienced a profound rebirth - and the following emails will go deeper into those stories.
I encountered Jesus Christ in a life-changing way and embraced Him as the true God.
The teachings of the Bible became my guiding light. I went from being the girl who could tell you your entire astrology birth chart to the only believer in my circle, walking the narrow path of following Christ.
This transformation didn't just affect my personal life; it also shaped my business.
When I started paidcopywriter.com, I knew deep down that God had given me the vision and guidance to begin this journey. Every skill, capability, and bit of financial success I've had comes from Him, not my own strength.
Sharing my faith openly in my business wasn't part of my original plan. Fear held me back - fear of being seen as a Bible thumper, alienating freelancers with different beliefs, being viewed as unprofessional, and losing opportunities.
But I've realized that my story of radical transformation and my faith are integral to who I am and how I approach my business.
This series of emails is my raw and real account of my journey from the depths of darkness to the transformative power of Christ.
If Jesus could radically change my life and set me on a new path, I believe He can do the same for anyone, no matter their background or past experiences.
