We had the good fortune of connecting with Tierra Nettles and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Tierra, what do you attribute your success to?
The cornerstone of my brand’s success is undeniably my unwavering faith in God. It’s been the guiding light, the steady hand, and the infinite source of inspiration behind every page, every design, and every word. My personal journey of deepening my relationship with God through journaling is the heart and soul of this brand.

It’s more than just creating beautiful journals; it’s about providing a sacred space for individuals to connect with their Creator. This genuine passion and purpose resonate with our customers, fostering a deep connection beyond mere consumption.

While social media is an exciting new chapter, it’s important to remember that our foundation remains rooted in faith. Our goal is to use different platforms to share our message of hope and inspiration, inviting more people to experience the transformative power of journaling as a spiritual practice.

Ultimately, it’s about using our business as a ministry, spreading God’s love one journal at a time.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
What sets us apart is our unwavering commitment to creating a tangible connection between individuals and their faith. Our journals are more than just stationery; they are tools for spiritual growth and reflection. We focus on creating products that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also deeply meaningful and inspiring.

I’m most proud of the way our brand has fostered a genuine community of faith. It’s incredibly rewarding to hear stories about how our journals have helped people deepen their relationship with God. The sense of purpose and fulfillment that comes from knowing our products are making a positive impact is immeasurable.

Building this business has been a journey filled with both triumphs and challenges. Initially, it was difficult to balance the demands of running a business with maintaining a deep spiritual life. However, I learned the importance of setting boundaries and prioritizing my faith. Overcoming these challenges has strengthened my resilience and deepened my trust in God’s timing.

One of the most valuable lessons I’ve learned is the power of authenticity. Being true to myself and my faith has allowed me to connect with customers on a deeper level. It’s essential to stay focused on our core values and not get swayed by fleeting trends.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
A week in LA would be an absolute blast! I’d start with a classic beach day in Santa Monica, followed by hiking Griffith Park for iconic city views. Hollywood glamour and culture are a must, so the Walk of Fame, Getty Center, and a live show are essential. Can’t miss the stunning Pacific Coast Highway, retail therapy on Rodeo Drive, and a day of pure fun at Disneyland or Universal Studios. For a change of pace, Palm Springs offers a desert oasis escape. And, of course, no LA trip is complete without indulging in delicious food and soaking up the vibrant energy of the city.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I want to dedicate this shoutout to the countless individuals who have shared their faith and journaling experiences with me. Their stories have been the fuel that ignited my passion for creating a community centered around spiritual growth.

I’m also immensely grateful for the support of my small circle of friends who have believed in my vision from the beginning. Their unwavering encouragement has been a constant source of strength.

Lastly, I’d like to acknowledge the power of community. The Christian journaling community has been a wellspring of inspiration and support. Their shared journeys have enriched my own understanding of the transformative power of putting pen to paper.

Without these incredible people, this brand wouldn’t be what it is today.
