Delay is Not Denial: Making Childhood Dreams Come True | Lanée Blaise
In this inspiring conversation, host Kembala Evans sits down with Lanée Blaise—screenwriter, producer, and co-host of Imagine Yourself Podcast—to talk about how delay is not denial when faith, patience, and persistence meet divine timing.
Lanée shares how a middle-school “dream binder” became real-life scripts, and her journey from writer to producer of the new Rekindled for Christmas film streaming on Apple TV and Amazon. She opens up about the people who played key roles in her success and why embracing opportunities—and challenges—along the way matters so much.
Together, they unpack the importance of planting seeds, trusting seasons, and finding power in the pause. Lanée also reveals how setbacks can become stepping stones when you take time to reflect, heal, and grieve—and why humor and keeping God first are the secrets behind her 26-year marriage.
If you’ve ever felt “it’s too late” for your dream, then this episode will remind you: it’s never too late. Your dream still has purpose.
Key Takeaways:
- Delay ≠ Denial: God’s timing brings the best results.
- Plant and Nurture Seeds: Dreams require consistent effort and faith.
- Faith + Works: Believe—take steps toward making your dream come true.
- Healing Matters: Grieve, heal, and seek help when you need it.
- Humor Helps in Marriage: Laughter lightens marriage and keeps love fresh.
