Oh Hey There! I'm Heather Gilson,
Founder of Steadfast Heart Designs
My Story...
I grew up on a dairy and chicken farm, where my parents instilled in me the value of hard work and entrepreneurship.
My heart for ministry began at 12, inspired by missionaries to the Moi tribe in Southwest Papua, Indonesia, whom I knew personally. Their courage and faith in entering an uncertain mission field left a lasting impression, shaping my desire to serve and follow God’s calling.
Years later, when I went to Bible School, the Lord gave me a heart for Romania and for the heart of young women. My time in Romania shaped and prepared me for where I am now. I saw the need for biblical teaching and discipleship. This became the vision for my YouTube channel.Â
I started my business in Canada in 2019, and after moving to California, I relaunched, working with my family at Crokinole Canada. As my expertise grew, I felt a growing call to create my own products and help women walk boldly and confidently in the callings God has given them.
My Heart Behind It All
Stepping Boldly into Your Calling
At the heart of everything I do, whether it’s creating videos, teaching business strategy, or sharing my quiet time with God, is a desire to help women live fully for the glory of God. I believe our greatest goal in life is to love God with all we are and all we have, bringing glory to His name. And our mission is to share the good news of Jesus Christ, making disciples and teaching believers to obey everything He commanded.
Â
Through every video, resource, and teaching, my prayer echoes Colossians 1:9–10, that you would be “filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work.”
This ministry exists to equip and disciple Christian women to live and lead with eternal purpose, to build lives and businesses that reflect Christ’s heart, serve His people, and advance His Kingdom. Like the Great Commission calls us to in Matthew 28:19–20, my mission is to come alongside women as they follow Jesus in their everyday lives and callings.
Â
 Ephesians 4:11-12 says that our gifts are to equip the saints for the work of ministry and build up the body of Christ. I believe this is my specific calling, to teach, encourage, and disciple women to walk faithfully in theirs.
Â
 Whether through faith-based entrepreneurship training and education, lifestyle videos, Bible studies, or practical tools for business, my heart is to help women step confidently into their God-given calling and be used by Him to impact the world for His glory.
A FEW OF MY FAVORITES
When I’m not working, I enjoy cozy mornings with my Bible, singing (I’m a light-lyric soprano), puzzling, working out, and time with my husband, Stephen. I love hiking and drives along the Pacific Coast Highway and exploring California’s redwoods, and mountains.
