  • Helping to feel hurt??? Let's grow together!
    “We cultivate love when we allow our most vulnerable and powerful selves to be deeply seen and known, and when we honor the spiritual connection that grows from that offering with trust, respect, kindness and affection.
    Love is not something we give or get; it is something that we nurture and grow, a connection that can only be cultivated between two people when it exists within each one of them – we can only love others as much as we love ourselves.
    Shame, blame, disrespect, betrayal, and the withholding of affection damage the roots from which love grows. Love can only survive these injuries if they are acknowledged, healed and rare.”
    ― Brené Brown, The Gifts of Imperfection

  • Be patient, receptive, & willing to be loved.
    As my sufferings mounted I soon realized that there were two ways in which I could respond to my situation — either to react with bitterness or seek to transform the suffering into a creative force. I decided to follow the latter course.

  • Freedom
    The first day of your brand new life begins now. It is the launch of your dream chapter. The birth of a new you. The end of an old era and the magical start of a new one. You get to decide when and how you want to start over. All it takes is one thought; one decision that will alter your life forever. Clear the space in front of you to make room for what is coming. Your dreams get activated the moment you realize you're worthy of achieving them. - Ether T.

  • Get unstuck!

    The edifying process of change leaves a lot of us overwhelmed, stuck, and out of place, but the gag is you're running your own race. The life you are living is yours, read that again and apply it to your actions, your truth, and your yes. Real change is honoring the work that needs to be done and deciding to make the better change and doing what's needed and necessary to fulfil your God given purpose. Get unstuck and get out of the automated cycle of settling for less and overcompensating for things that aren't meant to be. You know your truth, your flaws, your secrets, your scars, your wrongs, etc. but what about the right? Give yourself a committed yes. Decide to get unstuck and unlearn what is holding you down by embracing your true beauty, raw beauty, natural beauty........be whole, be free, and be you.

  • Appreciate your now!
    Appreciating the life you have now; the resources, family, health, and strength are all inevitable. Change is inevitable and imagine being restored & renewed to higher heights without appreciating your current blessings and all you have. God has placed everything at a steady stand still to get the attention of those he have called to serve. Some of us lost our way, but the losses that some of us have encountered has led us to a place of thanksgiving, which has made us appreciate all that we have now!!

  • My walk, my anointing! Find yours
    Don't desire anything that you aren't willing to work. Can you withstand the bourdon of the blessing? If you find yourself neglecting what you have to appeal to others, if you find yourself being envious of another person all because you can’t live or present yourself in their form, look inside and honor who you are and the potential you have!! There are more people with half you talent excelling in the same field/walk you desire to be in, but you’re operating in fear & supposed lack, that you can’t even look in the mirror and honor your beauty! Real beauty. Ever look in the mirror, no bashing, no hate, just admiring and loving on who you are? TRY IT!! YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL & WHAT YOU HAVE IS ENOUGH!!

  • Black creatives and the attributes thereof
    Family and friend's support means everything to a lot of us, but what if you don't receive the help and support that you desire? Well, your calling is your calling and often times you have to walk that journey alone, often reaping the benefits alone as well. Don't allow what you don't have to dictate how to treat and operate in what you do have!!
