This documentary has allowed me to dream again. So many ideas came rushing through my mind about living my assignment and purpose on the earth. The name “Leap” wasn’t only a name but a feeling and a strong desire that it would truly give to everyone watching it to trust God and take a leap with Him for His glory. Thank you so much ladies. Love from South Africa 🇿🇦 ✨

This documentary has really inspired me to always take a leap with anything and to always just chase tour dreams and to always expect the unexpected

Part of success is facing the unknown. Creating a frame of reference for what is possible. Taking a leap to expand your world view and lived experience. As Stephanie said: "Fear has cost me a fortune." The cost of not trying is greater because in addition to missed opportunities, you also feel regret. You took action and so many great things have come from that. This doc is a seed that will mature and bear fruit.

honest to God this is one of the best docs i've watched in a while, because breathes life into one's soul. All dreams are achievable God bless you two

This was Exactly what I needed. I loved it from start to finish, especially what my man said about faith in action. I loved how Avelino took you both like his little sisters and embraced you. But most of all I loved the beauty of your friendship and embracing your faith and letting it lead you. People love to pull out "it's not good for man to be alone" in the context of marriage, but this friendship illustrates what it means to have a friend that sticks closer than a brother. Love it, praying that God continues to bless your individual and collective endeavours 🙏🏾💙

Amazing documentary! Really inspiring! I moved to LA from London in November as I am studying, I am in LA till June and definitely agree that there is so much opportunity being here, and people are more open to work with you especially if you are from London. I would suggest going back to LA for a few months so you have more time to meet more people ✨
