Faith, Friendship & a Fierce Calling with Oliva Abraham

I sat down with Olivia Abraham—aka Liv Abe—and within minutes I knew why she’s lighting up this city. At 23, she’s built Live by Grace Photography across Fargo and Arizona, leads associate teams, and founded The Invitation, a Christ-centered women’s community that’s already grown to 27 chapters. We traced her path from iPod photo shoots to weddings, seniors, brands, and families—and the real lesson underneath: learning capacity the hard way, guarding her name and client experience, and surrendering her plans to God when the calling feels bigger than her calendar.

What moved me most was Liv’s honesty about the breakup that “broke” her and became the seed of something sacred. We talked about listening for the God-zone—peace that surpasses understanding, Holy Spirit conviction, and the difference between gut noise and divine guidance. I see in her the maiden energy I remember in myself: fire, hospitality, an open door for women to belong. If you’re carrying a big vision, Liv’s reminder is simple and true—keep going. Impact doesn’t require 200 confirmations; sometimes it’s one woman who leaves different.

About Liv:

Olivia Abraham, better known as Liv, is a 23-year-old entrepreneur and photographer who splits her time between North Dakota and Arizona. A graduate of Grand Canyon University with a degree in marketing and advertising, she launched her business, LivByGrace Photography, while still a teenager and has since built it into a thriving full-time career.

Liv is passionate about traveling and Jesus, often hopping on a plane to photograph weddings and explore new places. She also founded The Invitation, a growing women’s ministry with 27 chapters nationwide, and leads the local chapter in Fargo. She’s dedicated to living intentionally, creating timeless memories for others, and embracing life with equal parts adventure and grace.

Odyssey of a Healer with Emily Koska

I brought Emily Koska on because from the minute we met (yes, I slam-hugged her at Impact Collective), I knew she was a flag-carrier. Emily’s path is anything but linear—CNA to burned-out nurse, a decade as a wedding photographer, back to NP school, then into functional medicine where women’s hormones became her lane because it was also her lived battle: endometriosis, crushing fatigue, thyroid questions, and years of fertility struggle. She did the work, optimized her hormones, and—after 15 years of thinking it might never happen—she’s now pregnant with baby #3 at 37. That conviction shows up in her practice, where every new patient starts with a 45-minute “tell me everything” session, followed by targeted labs and a clear plan. The patterns she sees most: fatigue, brain fog, weight resistance, gnarly periods, PCOS, thyroid dysfunction, and the perimenopause/menopause rollercoaster—so often fueled by insulin resistance, inflammation, environment, and unprocessed stress/trauma.

We also went there on identity and leadership. Emily’s a self-described “doer,” the one who grabs the sword when systems want her silent, and she’s rebuilding her life with boundaries, mentorship, and real community—not the shallow “be liked” version. We named the ache so many women carry: feeling unseen while holding everything together; numbing with scrolls, sips, and to-dos; forgetting the body is wildly capable. Her charge to women leading big things was simple and unshakable: you are capable—do it scared, trust yourself, and keep going.

Oh—and because one flag wasn’t enough, Emily and her husband launched Odyssey FM, an Acton-style micro-school in Moorhead that blends learner-led education, character development, and Socratic dialogue. It’s small by design, family-centric, and built to let kids lead, struggle, and grow—exactly the skills adulthood actually requires. If you’re a woman listening who checks all the “this might be hormones” boxes, or you’re craving a tribe of “friends with flags,” Emily’s work—and this conversation—are your nudge.

About Emily:

I work with women who feel dismissed, overwhelmed, or stuck when it comes to their health because I’ve been there myself. My own experience with hormone imbalance is what drives me to dig deeper and listen differently. At EmpowHER, I specialize in helping women get to the root of symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, weight changes, mood swings, and cycle irregularities. I treat a wide range of hormone-related issues including adrenal dysfunction, thyroid disorders, PCOS, perimenopause, menopause, and gut health concerns that are often overlooked but deeply connected to hormones. My approach is personalized, functional, and evidence-based. With tools like advanced lab testing and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), I help women rebalance their bodies and feel like themselves again energized, clear, and confident. If you’re tired of being told “everything looks fine” when nothing feels fine I’m here to help you finally get answers and take back control of your health.

Spirit, Boundaries + Brave Hearts with Jodie Harvala

I invited Jodie Harvala because, in my eyes, she pioneered spirituality in Fargo–Moorhead–West Fargo. I opened by naming that and thanking her—because the truth is, Jodie gave women like me permission to trust our gifts without needing to brand ourselves as “woo.” We talked about how she built her work from a season of loneliness and curiosity, finding mentors, claiming the title “psychic,” and learning to hold firm boundaries—even in the face of blatant rejection. I shared my own evolution from wanting to “win” to building stages with as many mics as possible for women with wildly diverse stories. Together we named the mirror work—how our outer criticism often reflects an inner one—and why embodiment matters more than more information.

Jodie described her lighthouse as returning to her own spirit (and heart), and how travel cracked her open: solo miles through the Tetons, Glacier, the Camino. That’s become part of her calling now—Spirit School, retreats, and women’s travel that gets us out of the house and into our lives. We dug into the head–heart truce, befriending the ego, setting energetic boundaries, and managing capacity so we don’t burn out serving everyone else’s crises. When I asked what nearly broke her, she was honest about a hard chapter in her marriage—and the rebuilding that followed—plus the weight of losing a longtime client. And when I asked what she wants to be remembered for, she said disrupting fear in women’s lives. Same, sister. We closed with her message for leaders: trust your heart, tend your world, and let desire be louder than fear.

About Jodie:

Jodie Harvala is a psychic medium and energy clearing expert who guides people to release heavy patterns, trust their intuition, and welcome everyday magic. She is the founder of Spirit School, an ongoing community offering monthly classes, live energy work, and supportive gatherings where spiritual growth and real-life grounding come together. Known for her direct wisdom and vibrant presence, Jodie blends deep intuitive insight with practical guidance to help others reconnect with their spirit and move forward with clarity, confidence, and joy.
