Hi, I’m Alivia.
Honored you're here
I’m a Florida girl, wife, entrepreneur, speaker, creator, and a woman who loves seeing people become who God created them to be.
My world is a mix of faith, leadership, business, creativity, life at home, and learning to be faithful in the middle of all of it. I love a good conversation, a beautiful space, being out on the water, and helping women realize they were made for more than just going through the motions.
Around here, we talk about the things that actually matter: who we’re becoming, how we lead, what we’re building, how we love people well, and what it looks like to follow Jesus in the everyday.
I’m so glad you’re here.
Faith, leadership, and a life still unfolding.
For more than 13 years, I’ve worked in business and marketing. I’ve been an athlete, a business builder, a speaker, a podcast host, and the girl who grew up around ministry and learned early that faith is meant to shape how we live—not just what we say we believe.
I care about leadership because I believe the person we are becoming matters just as much as the things we accomplish.
I care about business because what we build can serve people, provide for our families, create opportunities, and fund things that matter.
And I care about community because we were never meant to do all of this alone.
My faith is at the center of how I see the world, but I’m not interested in pretending life is always polished or easy. I believe we can love Jesus deeply and still ask hard questions, walk through grief, learn as we go, and keep becoming.
This space is where those parts of my life meet.
Some days that means talking leadership and business. Some days it means sharing something God is teaching me. Other days, it might look like home projects, a trip, a favorite find, or a little glimpse into life in Florida.
I want this to feel less like following a brand and more like getting to know a person.
Speaking & Leadership
I speak on faith, leadership, identity, personal growth, and what it takes to lead well in the places God has entrusted to us. I love challenging audiences to think deeper, lead differently, and put what they believe into practice.
Brand Partnerships & Content
I partner with brands that fit naturally into my life and the things I genuinely love—from home and lifestyle to travel, wellness, and products worth sharing. My background in marketing helps me bring both creativity and strategy to the content I create.
Created & Lydia Effect
Through Created and Lydia Effect, I’m building spaces for women to grow in their identity, lead with intention, build businesses, and do life alongside women who share their faith.

A six-week experience helping Christian women return to the foundation of who God created them to be—and learn to live and lead from that place.
There’s a lot happening around here, and I’m glad you get to be part of it.
A few things close to my heart.
The story behind the woman you see here.
Where it started...
I’m a fourth-generation pastor’s kid. Faith, church, and ministry weren’t just things I visited on a Sunday—they were woven into the world I grew up in. That shaped the way I see people, leadership, responsibility, and what it means to live what you believe. I've seen the most beautiful and the not so beautiful parts of the church. I've seen incredible leaders rise and fall....
It has taught me that when leaders are healthy, everyone grows. THAT is one of the main reasons I am so passionate about leadership.
It also taught me that faith is something we have to keep returning to with honesty and intention. It isn’t about having the perfect answer or looking like you have everything together. It’s about following Jesus with your whole life.
The athlete, the marketer, and the entrepreneur
My background as a college athlete taught me about discipline, commitment, and showing up even when things get hard. Over the years, I built a career in business and marketing, spending more than 13 years learning how to communicate, create, build, and help ideas reach the people they’re meant to serve.
I’ve seen the strategy behind a growing brand and the work that happens behind the scenes. I love the creative side, but I also love helping people see the bigger picture and turn an idea into something real.
Speaking...
From speaking and hosting to podcast conversations and conferences, I’ve had opportunities to share what I believe and challenge people to think differently. The more I’ve done it, the more I’ve cared about conversations that go beyond surface-level inspiration—conversations that lead to real change in how we live, work, love, and lead.
Love, loss, and a different understanding of life
My husband and I have walked through the heartbreak of losing our daughters, Blaire and Callie. Their lives have changed ours in ways I could never fully put into words.
Grief has a way of bringing what matters into sharper focus. It has changed how I think about time, family, faith, and the way we show up for one another. I don’t share this because it defines every part of me, but because it is an important part of my story—and because I believe we should be able to tell the truth about hard things without pretending they make us less faithful.
I’m still learning what it looks like to carry both deep love and deep grief while continuing to live, build, and trust God one day at a time.
The life I’m building now
Today, I’m building a life that brings together faith, leadership, business, creativity, and community. I’m creating resources and spaces to help women grow into who God created them to be, while continuing to learn that becoming is a lifelong process.
I’m a wife, a Florida girl, a home-design enthusiast, a water-and-sunshine kind of person, and someone who believes the everyday parts of life matter, too.
I don’t have every chapter figured out. But I know the kind of life I want to build: one rooted in Jesus, marked by love, and used to serve something bigger than myself.
