I’m making time to read today. This is a big deal.

As a wife, mom of 8, author and artist, my life is pretty hectic. But the last 6-8 weeks have tested, tried, grieved, strained, pulled on, pushed, and, undoubtedly, prepared and strengthened my wings in more ways than I have time to express. It’s been a season of full flight and nonstop service and caring for others.

But today, I’m finally carving out some time to rest these powerful appendages that give me lift. Finally taking time to fold and relax them as I ease my mind, sink into a beautiful story, and allow God to polish and adorn them like only He can.

I’m reading “The Invention Of Wings” by one of my favorite authors, @suemonkkidd . And though this book was released in 2014, I only discovered its existence last year. My daughter gifted me a copy for Christmas. But not just any copy...the copy with THIS cover! This AMAZING cover!

This is not the cover you generally see when searching for or purchasing this book.

As you can see in the photo, there’s a beautiful resemblance between my first book’s title and cover and Sue Monk Kidds’ title and cover.

Can I tell you something? That alone refreshes me. 🦋

I’m only a few pages in, and it’s already speaking to me.

Y’all better watch out...Sue Monk Kidd has a way with words! When I’m finished with this book, there’s no telling how grand and amazing my wings will be!

Hey Butterfly!

🦋 Are you, or do you aspire to be, a writer, author, blogger, artist, or speaker?

🦋 Are you a creative woman who appreciates the beauty of voice, but you feel up in the air regarding your own identity and the power you possess?

🦋 Have you gotten stuck in the rut of monotonous routine and somewhere along the way lost sight of and connection with your own voice, identity, and dreams?

🦋 Do you have a message to share with the world but feel unsure of your ability to communicate it?

If so, then my new group #TheKaleidoscopeCollective is the place for you!

My name is Donloyn LeDuff Gadson. I am an author, artist, creator, and host of #TheChrysalisExperience podcast.
I help the creative woman who feels silenced and caged find #Freedom and #Power in her #Voice so she can emerge, spread her wings, and #TakeFlight!

Did you know that a community of Butterflies is called a #Kaleidoscope? It is! And that's what I'm doing with this private group--creating a Kaleidoscope! I am building community...a Collective of creative women who have a unique and powerful message to share with the world.

Feeling silenced and voiceless is a lonely place to be. It’s a solitary confinement that locks you in, setting bars up all around you.

But here’s the good news...
You Cannot Cage a Butterfly! 🦋

If you struggle or have ever struggled with believing in the Power of your Voice or the Strength of your Wings, then I want to help you!
🦋
If you have ever felt marginalized, not enough, or as though you don’t fit in, then I want to open your eyes to the dynamic woman God created you to be so you can give birth to every beautiful thing He has placed on the inside of you!
🦋
If you have something to say and/or create, but you don’t have the confidence or courage needed to speak it or bring it to life, then I’m your girl!
🦋
Butterfly, I want to help you Transform, Emerge & Take Flight!
🦋
Feeling Free in Your Voice begins with LOVING your Voice!
Your Voice is your Identity.
It’s who you are!
But before you can own the Power of You...before you can own the Power of your Voice, you must first learn to Love it!

Have you ever felt as though you didn’t quite measure up to someone else?

Butterfly, let go of that destructive habit.
Don’t you know your Voice and Identity are Beyond Compare?!

Hey #Butterfly!

On Wednesday, March 24th at 8pm EST, #TheChrysalisExperience Podcast will be recorded and streamed LIVE!

Butterfly, let me ask you a question?

Have you ever compared yourself, your life, or your circumstances to that of another Butterfly?
You can be honest...We all have.

But, let me tell you something. Measuring your voice and identity against that of another is a dangerous and slippery slope.

Join me in The Chrysalis tomorrow as I discuss #COMPARISON!
We're going to talk about what it is; the dangers associated with it; where it comes from, and how to combat it!

We will be LIVESTREAMING this episode on
YouTube at: https://www.youtube.com/user/Donloyn
as well as on my Facebook page: https://facebook.com/Donloyn
so have your questions and comments ready!

Butterfly, your Voice is #BeyondCompare!
It's time we put down the measuring stick and move past comparison.
It's time to be transformed.
It's time to #TakeFlight!

Butterflies, listen!
We have to stop playing small! We have to come out of the comfort zones that have kept us hidden for so long. We have to stop giving away our power to situations that we “think” have us trapped and caged!
🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
SPOILER ALERT!
You Can’t Cage A Butterfly!!!
🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
Ladies, it’s time to be strong and courageous! It’s time to rise up and live life out loud and free!
It’s time to leverage the power of your Voice in the world!

‭‭Butterfly, let’s talk... Isaiah‬ ‭43:

‭‭Butterfly, let’s talk...

Isaiah‬ ‭43:19 says, “Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”
‬
So many profess that scripture over their lives and situations, but few are willing to go through the process of change necessary to get to the new!

They want the “way” and the “rivers” but aren’t willing to experience the “wilderness” and the “desert.”

Butterfly, is this you?
Are you one of those who wants new but can’t let go of the old?
Are you one who wants better but is unwilling to do the hard work or experience the discomfort that leads to better?

The word “Change” can cause many to become rigid and resistant. And while the process of change is uncomfortable, we can navigate it in such a way that the outcome is success!

If that’s you...if you have a difficult relationship with change or if you are currently facing a situation that is requiring you engage in the process of change, then join us tomorrow, March 10th at 8pm EST, for The Chrysalis Experience LIVE!!!

My guest Keisha Rivers of @karsgroupltd will be joining us in the Chrysalis for a conversation entitled “Equipped for Change!”

***Transparent, Vulnerable Moment*** On this weeks

***Transparent, Vulnerable Moment***
On this weeks episode of The Chrysalis Experience, my guest Denise Meggett of @encouragingwordsbydenise and I share the BARE-FACED truth about #CONFIDENCE. And by bare-faced I mean, I filmed the episode make-up free. No mask, no coverups, no filters...just me. Vulnerable, yet free.
🦋🎙
Here’s my truth...after my miscarriage on March 1, 2020, I began having breakouts on my face. Breakouts so severe that it has left scarring. And now that I’ve healed from the pain, disappointment, and hopelessness of miscarriage, I’ve found myself in a wrestling match with shame and embarrassment and suffering a barrage of attacks against my confidence.
🦋🎙
These images are hard to share, but the truth is I know who I am and from where my confidence comes. My strength, courage, character, and confidence are far more than just skin deep!
🦋🎙
If you are struggling with confidence, please tune in to today’s conversation. Denise shares a wealth of information that will help you stand confidently in who you are...scars and all!

Hey, Y’all! I have a gift for you! 🦋💜
It’s The 7-Day #LoveYourVoice Challenge!
This challenge is all about committing to 7 days of learning to Love the #Power of You!

Your Voice is your #identity. It’s the expression and manifestation of who you are and who God created you to be. It’s the way you show up in the world.

God placed power on the inside of you. And your #Voice—when delivered responsibly—is the expression of that power.

But the only way to unlock that power is by learning to #LoveYourVoice!

This 39-page, printable workbook is full of teachings and exercises designed to help you uncover and love the power of You!

Before diving into the 7 days, you’ll learn what voice is and why we are all microphones.
Each day you’ll explore 7 Key topics:
🎤 God’s Voice
🎤 Your Voice
🎤 Lying Voices
🎤 Feed Voice
🎤 Protect Voice
🎤 Space for Voice
🎤 Believe in Voice
