God created us all uniquely, perfectly the way He wanted. So, what does it look like to figure out, live out and celebrate our God-given design? How do we do that without fearing rejection or judgement? How do we get to that sweet spot, where our daily actions line up with who He made us to be? Listen in as Jenni Lien, creator of The Yay Project, shares her story and how she’s finding answers to these questions.

045: Jenni Lien - Living Out Your God-Given Design

Jenni Lien is the writer and artist behind The Yay Project which seeks to help women celebrate their God-given design by reminding them that ‘You Are You’ (Yay!). Through The Yay Project, she’s had the joy of e-praising God with women from all over the world. Jenni is a second generation immigrant.  She was born in the UK, moved to Canada when she was eight and now lives in Hong Kong. In our conversation Jenni talks about growing up experiencing lots of diversity and how that led her to appreciate how different God has made us. She shares what led her to Hong Kong and describes the culture, the current unrest and her experience with the coronavirus. Jenni talks about not giving into fear, but trying to be a light during fearful times.   Then we dig in to how and why Jenni started The Yay Project. Jenni talks about feeling like her life was going exactly according to God’s plan and how when that plan fell apart, all she had was God’s faithfulness to get her through. She says “through that whole experience, he brought me to a place where I was just so in love with him.” During that time was when he gave her the vision for her project. Jenni talks about carrying a fear of rejection and needing to heal from some old wounds in order to more fully accept her God-given design, and how she wants to encourage other women to do the same. Jenni is overjoyed to connect with women so deeply through a shared love of God. When not creating for Yay, she works in children’s book publishing and is also a freelance food writer.   MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE  The Yay Project  Praying All Day  Yay Sister Series    JENNI’S FAVORITE 5  Whistles Dresses  Oliplex Hair Treatment   I Give You Authority by Charles Kraft         Spotify Top Christian Playlist  iPad and Apple Pencil    CONNECT WITH JENNI  Instagram | Facebook | Website    SUPPORT THE SHOW  Pure Haven is the maker of fresh, safe, personal and home care products. Their mission is to educate consumers about pure, safe, alternative personal care choices that empower people to live the healthiest lifestyle possible. Their products are 100% free of toxins.
