wait, I'm pregnant?? (the art of surrender)

After walking through infertility for nearly three years, I was preparing for surgery — and just two days after publicly opening up about that journey for the first time, we found out we were pregnant. A literal miracle. But this episode isn't just about the miracle. It's about what surrender really looks like — in life, in business, and in faith. Because even now, I'm still learning that being pregnant isn't the finish line of infertility… it's another opportunity to trust God fully. Today I'm sharing how surrender has shaped every part of my story — from trusting Him with finances when I wasn't booking shoots, to redefining what success means as I prepare for motherhood. If you're in a season of waiting, pivoting, or releasing control, this one's for you. 🎉MENTORSHIPS If you're craving direction in your photo business, want real, honest guidance, or just wanna hang with me in person—my 1:1 mentorships are open (in person or virtual)! https://www.alexblakeeducation.com/services LET'S CONNECT 🫶 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexblakephoto TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/Alexblakephoto Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alexblakephotography STUFF I SWEAR BY 🫡 My Gear, Bible Stuff, + Life Faves: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alexblakeotto Pass Gallery – 1 Month Free: https://alexblakephotography.passgallery.com/referral AI Editing (30-Day Free Trial): https://aftershoot.com/friends/?ref=alexotto HoneyBook Discount (Get organized!): https://share.honeybook.com/alex89263 Merch, Presets, & More: https://www.alexblakeeducation.com/ PHOTO CAMP INFO 🌊⛺️  https://www.photocampinfo.com DON'T FORGET! 🎙️ Rate, review & subscribe to the pod to stay inspired + support the show!
