Can you share some insights into your creative process? Where do you find inspiration, and how do you translate that into your work?

How do you navigate challenges and setbacks in your field, and what advice would you give to aspiring creatives facing similar obstacles?
Laura: I recently went through a huge setback and during the three months when I could’ve been worrying, I decided to float and have faith and keep praying, and everything was restored in a better way. I never give up. I try to see things from other perspectives, and I love God, so I trust him.
In an industry constantly evolving, how do you stay innovative and relevant while maintaining your unique voice/style?
