Trigger Warning - I mention rape in this post. This is something that I haven't wanted to talk about. I've actually never wanted to discuss this publicly but I feel like I need to finally fully address this. I talked about this a little bit in the post 'no bondage' but I didn't go into… Continue reading accountability is hard but necessary

no bondage
Happy March! I am currently in the middle of God fulfilling mad promises in my life and I cannot wait to share the full testimony with y'all! On the last Monday of each month, the women at my church get together for a potluck, worship, ministry, and prayer. The topic this past month was 'What… Continue reading no bondage
I saw a victory
Trigger Warning: Suicidal Ideation In August of 2019, I wanted to die. I just couldn’t go on anymore. I locked myself in the bathroom and stared at myself in the mirror. Curious about what my parents would find in the morning. Curious about the conversation they’d have with my sisters and brother. Curious about how… Continue reading I saw a victory
my issue with manifestation
Happy New Year! Can you believe we are officially 3 years out from 2020? I feel like 2020 is now my litmus test for how chaotic something was or is. So I'm going to dive right in because this is a topic I've been thinking about since the spring of 2021. I personally believe you… Continue reading my issue with manifestation
is Egypt still in you?
So I have this thing that I do and before I share it, yes I know it’s not a good thing at all. So if a situation comes up where I have an opportunity to sin, I’ll tell God “oh this is the last time” and just … sin. And frankly it’s a double whammy… Continue reading is Egypt still in you?

Not just by the artistry of the lyrics but by the way it grabbed my bleeding heart and tightened its grip until I couldn't take it. Apparently, the… Continue reading Cycles
clearing out the house
Like most of my posts, I’m admitting a lot of things. This is actually one of the hardest posts I've written in a while because I'm purging some deeply internalized things. I recently found out that another friend is moving into a stage of life that I so desperately desire. I'm actually so happy for… Continue reading clearing out the house
like a child
I love kids. I mean, I love kids. My goal in life is to be a stay-at-home wife and mother who manages her successful online business. If you know anything about kids, especially toddlers, you know that silence is not golden. Silence usually means that they are doing something they shouldn't be doing. There are… Continue reading like a child
transparency time Tuesday
It probably has everything to do with the way I grew up, but I feel like I am a bother to literally everyone. As I age, I move further away from the unkind words and actions of bullies and family, but the pain that birthed hesitation never left. I am genuinely fearful, at all times,… Continue reading transparency time Tuesday
why I’m done dating for the time being
A few weeks ago I got dumped (for the second time in a year). You know what makes it worse? We were never official. He was just a man that I really liked and we slept together enough times for me to confuse lust with feelings deeper than like. Today we had a long conversation… Continue reading why I’m done dating for the time being
