Y’all. It’s been 40 episodes! 40 FREAKING EPISODES! Dude…like what? Did I do that? Jesus, Father, Holy Spirit help me lol 😆. This is cray crayyyy but I’m here for it. Season 1, Episode 40, it’s a wrap. Thank y’all for your support witnessing my transformation. May the peace of God be with you and His presence never leave you, in Jesus name, amen 🙏🏾. Now I’m finna enter my new season okayyy 💃🏽✌🏾.
This title is SO fitting. I'm a new person for real y'all! Transformation is an incredible COMMITMENT.
Chile I was minding my WHOLE BLACK BUSINESS and had a breakthrough via a LIVE guided meditation 😳 (my camera was off tho 😎✊🏾). God is OH SO good! He is my home and home is in my heart. My home is also in the hearts of my friends and my family (whom I am no longer running away from). I'm thankful to finally be back home 🏘️ ❤️.
Loaded question isn't it? Housing insecurity is real ain't it? Many of life's ups and downs have left me wondering where is MY home? Can I ever really be at home? Can I forgive individuals that jeopardized my safety and security? How do I best take responsibility for myself then and now?
Chillllllleeee...can you believe this show went from a THOUGHT to a PODCAST to a SUPPORT GROUP! Y'all. I just hosted my FIRST support group (well, it's really God's because it belongs to Him). But uh...yea. The Well-Made Woman Support Group is official dawwwg *insert Tommy from Martin voice here*. It went down and I wasn't as scary as I thought...you know...walking my purpose out loud in a new community God called me to. Sound like scripture don't it? Don't worry, I'll wait.
This episode, my first Spotify VIDEO episode, captured my celebratory praise after group ended. Out of respect and privacy of the women who contributed to today's meeting I will not disclose their personal details for the sake of storytelling. I am NOT for sale --- nor am I for these streets you heard!
Thank you for seeing this moment come true. It's been a long, time, coming.
Pause. That's what I'm learning to do right now. Why? Because being constant in "grind mode" doesn't produce the same fruit as being consistent with REST. There is goodness waiting for you when you rest.
Let me tell y'all...the second quarter of 2022 has been INTEEENNNSEEE! Stress, chaos, uncertainty, disappointment, change and trauma all came for me. But I'm here to tell y'all going from Gethsemane to Eden is worth it. The pressure God just put me through makes me feel unstoppable for this new season. I'm encouraged and I pray you will be too. ❤️
Wow! 7 months into my own authenticity project my podcast, MY STORY, is available on 4 platforms! I can hardly contain myself! OHMYGOSH! I did it! God did it! We did it!
You CAN choose to let go

THIS 👏🏾EPISODE👏🏾 FINNA👏🏾 BANG 👏🏾💥!!! You goin get to that root tuh day!
I know last week's episode was juicy so let's pick back up where we left off. 😇
Y'all ever wondered why you repeat the same lessons? Why your life decisions may look similar to your parents? God gave me some clarity on my life cycles and I'm finna tell y'all my business. Let's listen.
Check it...I have these moments when the inside of me, my spirit man, feels like it's swelling like a balloon. Those moments I stop everything I'm doing to be vulnerable, to lean inward, to be still. I say out loud what my soul needs and how I envision my life. AKA...I prophesy. **5-7-22 UPDATE** I gotta testify y'all. God has met each need I prophesied on this episode. This just brought me so much joy! I am so proud of my progress and how He's strengthened me. Glory be to God. Hallelujah!
Believe it or not…there are blessings in your pain.
YOU 👈🏾 are going to get your breakthrough brain right 👏🏾nah 👏🏾. Not now 😌☝🏾. Naaah 👏🏾
This is gonna be good. Just in time for Mother’s Day
Hey sis 👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾 I see youuuuu! Now get down girl go 'head get down! 😝 This episode is for YOU. I encourage you to keep (or start) showing up as your whole self in white environments. It's unnerving when you start but once you start you won't go back. Believe dat!
Imma be honest...I didn't want to publish this episode. I considered skipping this week's podcast altogether. Here I am. I showed up, humble, open and transparent.
Honesty changes everything. This episode marks the starting point of bold truths I began to process out loud for the first time...and it feels dam good to be here.
