Buku, Founder of GIMCD Talks Overcoming Fear and the Journey of God Being Her Creative Director 

I felt it to my bones when Buku said you can talk to someone about God for the longest time, but until they witness him for themselves, they might not fully understand. Having witnessed the love of God myself, all I pray is that people witness this love and Grace too because it's nothing I ve ever seen before😭🙌

- "our obedience is tied to so many people" -A friend like her is a blessing.

“I was severely depressed because I was trying to find purpose in everything else because I was running away from this”😮‍💨😮‍💨

'If you hire me, God's coming too' PURRR - don't leave him at the door when you go into rooms and always out him at the head of the table!

Can I say something, this is so crazy because I feel like we lived the same lives. God told me to start a podcast in 2018 and I started but I stopped in 2020, late last year and early this year I’ve been meeting strangers asking me about the podcast. I just knew it was God leading me back to it, I kept wondering it’s been so long and I’ve been away for so long. How do I go back to it? Where do I begin? And something very significant you said, I was also using my phone to record at that time and recording Under my sheets 😂 and i enjoyed it! Wow wow! This is so amazing! My podcast is for women though ❤️ I’m currently away from socials for the next 90days and today is my day 1! I came online for Bible study and I see your video and you answered all my questions! Thank you so much for doing this! Thank you so much, God bless you! I will do it! Even if it’s only this video that would keep me going, I’ll keep coming back to listen to it! Thank you!

“God put His best in me and that’s Him.” #solid

You have no idea how this ministered to my soul exactly when I needed it. Thank you Jesus that they recorded this and I finally watched it. I too felt like it was taking me so long, I felt like I couldn’t do it and He probably chose someone else. Lies. If you’re reading this, please pray for divine passion for what He has called me to, for me to just do it and to do it His way, not man’s way and not Tiffany’s way for His glory in Jesus’ name. May God bless and keep you!

“Open that door and say yes to God and say yes to your purpose, you will be so relieved that everything that you have been convincing yourself of is literally a facade.” WHEW!

"Even though sometimes we delay and we procrastinate and hold ourselves back due to imposter syndrome and fear, He has accounted for all that." WHHHHEEEWW! Buku you are speaking a whole word to me right now with your testimony concerning this podcast. I was literally just reminded of a project I put down earlier this week by MY MOTHER of all people and now this... wowowow. Such a great pilot episode. Thank you for your obedience! Thank God for His patience 💗

came here because of Deborah B’s video! so encouraged and grateful to hear both of your stories - especially in navigating that procrastination/fear/impostor syndrome stage 🙏🏼 love this vision He’s given you for this podcast! and the way He’s redeemed the timing. for such a time as this 🥹

I’m here from Faith Talks by Deborah B. She mentioned this episode and I was interested. And I’m happy I found this podcast

ooo that part about feeling like you've missed the time frame for what God instructed you to do and the guilt/shame/inaction cycle hit so close. but His Grace is more than enough and He will never bring shame upon you!

I literally said a prayer asking God to speak to me, to guide me. Then, your podcast pops up while scrolling. This is so pure, vulnerable, faith-centered. I love! Just the convo I needed to shift my perspective and get into action, with God by my side.

This entire show is God send. I mean even the name speaks volumes and it captured the essence of the point I have reached in my journey. I'm in a season where I'm submitting my career/businesses/finances to God and learning to walk in His will. One of my requests to God in the past few monthswas, 'Lord guide me because I'm not entirely sure if I'm submitting and doing this right." This show is my answered prayer. I came across it today and I've already watched 3 episodes and each are filled with so much gold I'm convinced I'm going to watch them again. Thank you Buku for walking out your Yes. God bless you sis

Don’t ever GIVE UP Buku!!!! God is allllllll over this thing. Remember, no matter what it may look like behind the scenes, “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” 😉😉❤❤. God bless!

I resonated with what you said on so many levels. Friends like Victoria are truly sent by God. Thank you for obeying His voice. I can’t wait to see the great things God will do through you on this podcast! 👏🏾

THIS MESSAGE WILL IMPACT GENERATIONS!! SO GREATFUL FOR YOUR OBEDIENCE!!!!

someone in Eastern Africa, Tanzania. GOD is doing a wonderful thing in this generation of ours today, the internet era GOD is using it to draw so many to HIM, and I am so blessed to see women like me have such conversations about our FATHER. I learned about this channel from @Deborah B channel on Faith talks and just the Channel's name 'GOD IS MY CREATIVE DIRECTOR' drew me in instantly, I had to go search for this channel and hit subscribe before I even watched one episode. Let God continue doing a great work through you Buku🙏

Hi Buku, I just want to say, wow, the production for this podcast is absolutely beautiful. It was so affirming to hear that though you dealth with anxiety, self-doubt and fear God accounted for that! And how even though it took you years, you learnt so much along the way and have access to resources you didn't have before. I just want to say I'm so happy for you. There are so many podcasts out there but this is genuinely UNIQUE and refreshing. Hearing black God fearing entrepreneurs share their gems from a faith based perspective? Whew! This is going to go so so far. Literally binge watching everything (flotuk)

I'm so inspired by this podcast, I can't wait to follow along on the journey! GOD IS MY CREATIVE DIRECTOR. What a timely message.

@Deborah B was talking about this episode on her latest Faith Talks podcast and I came straight here, and I must say No Regrets. Can't wait to see what you cook up Buku! Thoroughly enjoyed this one.

Watching from Nigeria 🇳🇬 Thank you sooo much for your obedience!!! I’ve been blessed in no small way! Thank you for saying YES!

" I'm partnering with the fear, I'm partering with the doubt and the imposter syndrome, I'm on their team" OMG SO POWERFUUUUL ! Lord help us quit on them ! Beautiful episode, the title of this podcast is literally a revelation for me ! God bless you !

I’m so sorry to say this but where the new episodes at?!?!?! The way you got me over here checking your RU-vid channel! Yes please I already did my rewatches. I love this show! Buku girl!!! We ready

Literally just subscribed because I know this is about to be a staple channel for my YT / Podcasts that I listen to! Thank you so much for sharing and this video is very very much timely for me and I appreciate you taking the time to share your experiences and encouragement with us all! P.S I noted down your quote about how "Obedience is up to me, the outcome is up to God" and if I ever use it during my creative processes and journey I will for sure be tagging this quote as yours (~Buku)... because this along with so many other things you spoke about definitely spoke to me! And by no accident did this video appear on my YT home page today. Thank you once again Buku! God Bless you Always 💖

love love loved this episode. the reminder that obedience is far greater than the fear we have

I came across this video at such a pivotal moment in my life and journey to pursue what God has called me to. Thank you for your obedience! Your journey reflects mine in so many ways and to see everything come to fruition for you is inspiring!

Already planting seeds and confirming things. Thank you for your obedience 💜

Honestly after i started watching this podcast my life has changed for the better ...God bless you Buku for your Obedience.

Hello Buku, THANK YOU for this conversation. EVERYTHING you said is ME and I thank God for placing your video in my RU-vid feed for me to be able to hear this. After viewing this video, I am pushing my laptop aside and everything that I do moving forward will be done as I get out of my own way. I have been focused on perfection for so long and have not accomplished much as I have been waiting for the right time. Not anymore!!! God is my creative director too. THANK YOU BUKU and best friend, Victoria for this inspiration. Blessings to you in everything that you do always!!!!

Thank you for your obedience BUKU! You've affirmed my thoughts for years as God being my creative director, literally the CEO of my business, while I work full time on the business for him. Thank you

GOD spoke to me so much in this episode. Thank you GOD!

You gained a new subscriber. Thank you for giving us GIMCD

I can’t believe you waited this long to start something this amazing.. you have no idea how much this has blessed me .. I am binging all your videos please don’t stopppp😭😭

Absolutely beautiful! I love the concept and I love talking/ hearing discussions about God! I am so happy that you are walking within your purpose sis! I have a little story to share myself regarding listening to God. I was travelling home from a night shift this morning. I'm an ITU nurse btw. I was exhausted and tired and just wanted to sit down and get home. When i entered the train I saw this man sitting on the floor, it looked as though he was drunk/drug user. I noticed a lot of people avoided sitting near him and that distance between the man and the other people made me also want to distance myself. He was literally isolated. I did feel bad avoiding him. The scene felt like the good samaritan in 4k as I observed people glance at the man and intentionaly avoid him. I kept looking back at the person and started to get worried that he wasn't moving or doing anything. God started talking to me and I was like no God, please i'm tired. Can't it be someone else. It's not easy approaching a stranger that looks potentially dangerous. The voice was so persistent. I didn't want to be the one to take the initiative because it was clear nobody wanted to get involved. I eventually plucked up the courage to go towards the man and tried to help. For the nurses out there his GCS was 3/15. Then two other people joined me in helping the man. Long story short we helped the man get medical assistance but it just goes to show the power of God and listening to what he called you to do. God's timing is everything

God brought me here to this channel and I’m so glad He did because I love this so much !! I neeeeeeded this! And how you spoke is how I felt 1000% thank you for your obedience buku ❤

Speechless. This one episode has been such a blessing. Excited to support this podcast 🤍🤍🤍

Coming back to comment again because this episode is divinely orchestrated. It’s spoke to me so much and it’s pointing to clues God has recently been giving me. Buku, continue the great work, YOU ARE BLESSED! ❤️✨

this is so amazing…seriously. idk if i wanna cry or what but the emotions i’m feeling listening to you are so huge. thank you so much for your obedience, regardless of how long it took. thank you for this because me today is benefitting so much from everything you’re sharing.

Congratulations Buku your intentions for the podcast are now your reality! This episode has blessed me. It felt like watching myself in a mirror, and served as a very timely, not-so-subtle reminder of all the things God has been telling me. 5 years “late” but right on time 🫶🏾

Thank you for this! And both of you are so beautiful 🥰

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING! Thank you so much for this Buku! This is transformative!!!

Valuable Gems & INsights🙌

Congratulations for launching this show, I have been waiting for this and all of your story resonates with from perfectionism to putting off ideas to finding a creative lane outside of work. I’m looking forward to the rest of the season and guests. ❤

I looovveee your authenticity! What a breath of fresh air! ❤️

This is so good, creating WITH God changes everything. The part about stewardship and it being an honor really hit home. It’s never about us, but about God’s glory and planting seeds into the people and spirits that God needs us too. Super excited to see what conversations are coming. The Glory of God shines all on you🙏🏾✨

Love this ❤

What a beautiful episode. And congratulations on not giving up and continuing to glorify God by sharing your vision. I look forward to your future episodes 💕

Woah!!! Thank you for your obedience. You don’t understand how much I needed to hear this. Thank you!!!

Beautiful!! ❤️

At 25:50 when you started talking about it being an honor … I had to pause it, I bust out crying. I had to stop and thank God for all he’s doing and has done. It’s so easy to complain about whatever but it’s really an honor to be trusted with an idea from God. Great first episode!!!

Thank you for this 🙏🏼 you are an inspiration! God bless ❤

Congratulations!! God is so good. You're show is fresh.

Thank you so much for the video ,was a reminder for me to be obedient to God ,may Our Father keep us

such a unique point of view, amazing convo

You have no idea how timely this is for me. Hello from Sydney, Australia. May God bless you in all that you put your hands to for Him.

Girllll, I watched from beninning to the end lol and this testimony is so timely and spoke volumes to me!! Rooting for you!! God is so good at using one person(you) to inspire others. ❤

I pray that your show/podcast will continue to shine and reach the ends of the earth. I feel so connected to this and I can relate so much to it cause I have a similar experience🥹. We are light!. Continue to shine Buku! ❤️✨

This conversation has blessed me immensely, thanks Buku for your obedience. You speaking about your journey is beautiful I pray you enjoy all the fruits of your labor

I’m so glad that this came on my feed. You spoke a lot of the things that the Lord has told me and I’m so excited to see how this platform grows and the blessings that will come to the entrepreneurs that will share their stories.

I'm truely inspired by your journey Buku, Keep doing what you do!!

When God gives us an instruction the success of the instruction is up to him and the obedience is up to us. Thank you for giving God your Yes Buku, I’m obsessed. May God pour into you so you can keep pouring and impacting our lives via conversations ❤

Thank you, Thank you and Thank you for thisssss! I’m currently in a season where I’m battling fear and imposter syndrome everyday and obedience is a such a struggle. All day the lord has been speaking to me about this same issue and then I open my RU-vid and this is literally the first thing that pops up. You have no idea how many people need to hear these words. So many believers in a war with fear and are almost at the edge of giving up. Best believe I’m not only subscribing but turning post notifications onnnn! Thank you for being a vessel unto honour. ❤️‍🔥

Praise God that i stumbled across the podcast. I feel like it’s speaking directly to me. God is so intentional. Thank you for letting him use you.

Thank you for obeying and stewarding this vision, this truly blessed me

Honestly can't even express how much this just blessed me. Thank you buku!!!!

Beautiful prayer 🙏🏾 ❤ thank you

Wowww I love this podcast… I can’t wait for more episodes

You are so wise. So articulate. So well spoken ❤

Girl, you're SO SO SO loud! and we praise God for it. Grateful for the lord using you as a vessel, in a form that so many of us (young messenger black women) can resonate with. May your worship (podcast) be a blessing too many many many others. much love + gratitude from Rwanda

So inspired by this word. I’m so glad you shared this. Also been standing in my own way and fearing God has passed my purpose to someone else. Moving with the understanding now that He is my co-founder in everything I do. I needed this, thank you so much!

black excellence and you talking good fruit!!! God bless your purpose and all the lives you’ll touch.

Amen Amen Amen This was all of it!!!! Spoke to where I am in life and that prayer especially was for me🖤🖤🖤🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾‼️‼️‼️🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

This was such a good episode ❤

Glad you obeyed!❤😊

Oooooft! I needed this… a good friend sent this video to me (I saw this pop up on my IG & loved the concept, vibe etc & I had to follow)! Im in a similar journey & running away from the seed God has given me! 😢 feeling adequate & giiirl! Thank you for saying yes to God! Because this is for me! ❤

This is my first time hearing or seeing your podcast but I feel this episode is a Godsend. Everything that you spoke on I am/have experienced in my bu. As a matter of fact, I just created a video about getting out of your comfort zone on my business channel. I haven't uploaded or edited yet. This is the Word I needed.❤️

This was awesome. thank you so much!!
