lf He Brought You To It..He'll Bring You Through It


But will I really be able to live up to your expectation God? The answer...Yes!   how is that possible God?  You are my mirror as I am yours...Completely made in my image.  You have always been destined to greatness, you just haven't realized it yet.

So now here you are looking down the barrel of your dream that you've deferred so many times.  Pushed it away because of fear of it blowing up in your face.  Feeling like God made a mistake in assigning you this particular dream.  To big and too lofty and too unattainable and i'm so not worthy.  Guess what?  This is YOUR dream!  This is YOUR assignment!  This is YOUR journey!  This is YOUR time!

I can tell you when I get stuck or afraid is usually when I am about to cross over the goal line.  I've gone through my check list and all systems go, then all of a sudden the doubt kicks in and then the self sabotage goes into full effect.  Sometimes just as a distraction someone in my life has some type of disaster.  I've done this enough over the years that I recognize the signs when they show up.  I stop what i'm doing...shut down for a bit...get really sad...hit my lowest point...then realize that I have moved so far beyond my center and have not meditated, prayed, taken care of myself in months.  A crazy yet common spiral that so many people I know experience because they are doing everything to avoid their greatness.    I recognize it and stop and pray.  Doing my best to not run and hide.  Doing my best to stand in my best light.

THE SKIN I'M IN...

NYC-Embracing & Letting Go of This Skin  I 've  been desperately holding on to old shedding skins.  Skin that has puckered and worn out.  Skin that is snug in all the wrong places and increasingly more and more uncomfortable.  Skin that no longer serves me and is completely unrecognizable.  Skin that I've been terrified to let go of and allow to decompose because the new just felt/feels terrifying.  The new feels/felt so different.  I'm not even sure how to wear it or even approach this skin.  What part of me do I dress/address first...Do I start with putting it on from my head or my feet?  Or do I put it on like a front button down dress with at least 100 buttons that need attention?  I'm not sure how to wear this new skin.  I'm not sure how to approach this new skin,  so I've isolated myself more  than ever.  I've hid myself away but I find myself seeking to connect and be held; be in spaces with more than ...

Dear Single Mama!

The Early Years of Figuring It Out! You got this!   Yes, YOU GOT THIS!   I know you’re wrapping presents solo.   I know you might be feeling guilt because you couldn’t afford all the spoils for your babe(s).   I know you’re possibly pushing through some unhealed traumas, negative balances, uncertainty, exhaustion & being the safe space AKA emotional punching bag for said babes…whom you are also wracking your brain trying to figure out how to give them the world & keep them shielded from the perils of that same world including your ish…What am I saying?   You’re keeping your spinning plates going!   You’ve come so far!   Remember when you didn’t have right in this moment (job, an apartment, safety, a couple of extra dollars, food, new furniture, new friends, new love, school, accomplishments…) YOU have come so far!   YOU have done your very best to keep the fruit of your womb safe & supported.   So take a moment to honor yourself a...

BREAKING LOOSE FROM THE QUICKSAND

When you finally have the opportunity to climb out of the quicksand of your past & stand firmly on the ground that is your present...celebrate it!     Moira Rose (Yes, from Schitt's Creek). I've spent this last week nursing a cold and emotionally navigating all that is overwhelming, new, out of my control, unfinished business, regret, consequences, death, financial loopdeloops & everything else that comes in a stew of living, mental health challenges & a topper of a planet or five in retrograde.  Needless to say, it's been quite the emotional adventurous week:)!   I started it off on Sunday communing with my mother & my auntie who just passed a few weeks ago and then last week my sweet niece in Zambia had a baby and he didn't make it.  I don't think I realized how sad I was about my Auntie & my grand nephew until that Sunday morning...that day.  All the messaging I was receiving that morning/day was relenting to my heartache, rele...
