In this Inner Light episode, Wanda Thibodeaux breaks down what it really looks like to live as an “artist-prophet”. Not the trendy, feel-good version. The real version where your creativity carries a calling, your message has weight, and your integrity gets tested by algorithms, publishers, and people who want “quick wins.”
Wanda shares how her calling showed up through subtle recurring cues instead of one big spiritual moment. She also gets brutally practical about boundaries, staying anchored when the message feels heavy, and refusing to reshape truth just to sell faster. If you’re a creator, writer, musician, or leader trying to balance authenticity, faith, purpose, and visibility, this conversation gives you a clean framework to move with clarity.
About the Guest :
Wanda Thibodeaux is a freelance writer, creator, and podcast host focused on helping people align faith, identity, and meaningful work. She’s also the host of Faithful on the Clock and writes across formats including devotionals, leadership support content, and creative projects.
Key Takeaways :
“Calling” usually shows up as repeated nudges, not one viral epiphany. Track themes, patterns, and what keeps returning to you.
The market rewards quick consumption. Your job is to make truth accessible without watering it down for likes or profit.
Boundaries are a business strategy and a spiritual strategy. If you won’t defend the message you’ll eventually abandon it.
If your content is only trendy people scroll. If it’s real people stop, save, revisit, and actually change behavior.
Pick the medium that delivers the message with maximum clarity. You do not need to be everywhere. You need to be consistent where you land best.
Confidence grows when the message becomes structured. Clarity reduces anxiety and improves execution across platforms.
Serving the audience keeps ego in check. When the mission is bigger than you the pressure gets lighter.
Your impact does not require name recognition. The goal is reconnection to self, to purpose, and to God, not personal hype.
