Hey everyone! I’m Mary R Snyder — a storytelling coach who’s spent 20+ years helping Christian speakers, authors, artists, and leaders tell stories that actually connect to the heart of their audience I’ve coached communicators behind the scenes, helped shape messages for stages and events, and even spent seasons touring as an emcee and storyteller —so I’ve seen firsthand what makes people lean in… and what makes them check their phones. These days I’m taking all of that to TikTok, teaching simple storytelling strategies to help faith-driven entrepreneurs use their voice with clarity, confidence, and bold faith. I'm excited to learn about you.

☎️ On tonight’s Ambassador call: You’ve been taught “content pillars”: Educational, relatable, and inspirational. And you’ve been consistent in posting, but your content isn’t converting into sales. Now if you start thinking: • the algorithm hates you • you’re not consistent enough (you need more output) • you haven’t found the “right” hook or strategy yet OR • God is withholding favor from you Those are the surface explanations for those operating from identity lack. They are searching answers in external circumstances to justify the internal inadequacy and wondering why nothing’s working. Here’s what’s actually happening: Your content is informative, but not interruptive enough to invite a transformation. It’s encouraging, but not formative for your ideal client, so they hire someone else. It’s safe, but not activating or moving her towards a purchasing decision. So she nods. People agree. They like. They save. They want to “support” you externally, not pay you. They say, “this is SO good” in the comments. And your ego gets a stroke because on the outside it looks like you’re doing AMAZING! 🤩 …Rarely, are your actual customers in your comments section or liking your posts. But you still THINK they are. Because that’s the worldly lie you’ve been sold based on unchecked pride. But the 💰 isn’t moving and so you get discouraged. Here’s the Truth I won’t withhold from you: Information doesn’t create buyers. Recognition does. Most content teaches, informs, or inspires. Very little content REVEALS. And people don’t buy when they understand YOU. They buy when they see themselves, their split, their tension, and their readiness inside of your embodied work. ⚠️ This is the part most entrepreneurs avoid: They’re still operating like content creators, with “content pillars” that aren’t converting. But if your content never creates internal friction, it will never create forward motion. Jesus didn’t just inform crowds. He interrupted patterns, exposed identity gaps, offered His embodied solution, used storytelling, and then invited decision.

🐍 2025 was the year of the snake. Not just symbolically, but spiritually. The snake has always had one assignment: Not to destroy you outright, but to confuse your perception of God, so you forget WHO YOU ARE and WHO GOD IS. That was the first tactic in the garden, and not much has changed since. The serpent didn’t tell Eve she wasn’t created by God. He didn’t deny abundance existed. He simply whispered doubt into her certainty and wholeness with His presence. “Did God really say…?” (Genesis 3:1) And with that single question, her identity fractured. Her Trust in Her Creator fractured. Abundance became suspicious instead of secure in His garden of Eden. And this is exactly what 2025 was about for many women I walk with. Not lack. Not failure. Not loss of calling. But identity interference and confusion. You were productive, but divided in your efforts. Successful, but in restless pursuit without His peace. Faith-filled, but internally negotiating with God on more behavior modification instead of walking with Him in obedience produced from transformation. You didn’t lose your calling. But you felt the effects of the spiritual battle because you lost clarity and started to doubt the God who declares you victorious through Him 🙌🏻 And when God’s character gets blurred, obedience starts to feel risky instead of relational. You start to seek success in strategy, in external environments, in “more effort” and “doing better” from a state of striving…. Instead of from secured surrender. The snake came after me this year. 2025 stripped me. The serpent tried to break me. He whispered his lies wrapped in his cunning use of distorted scripture and a lifetime of never feeling “enough.” But this year refined my discernment. It burned off performance. It exposed every place I was functioning instead of belonging to the Creator who Created Me. And honestly? I’m grateful. Because deception only works when something inside us is still willing to bargain. And I’ve laid all my bargaining chips at His cross.
