Coffee Date Vol. 12: I Can Do Hard Things

Things Are Changing- Life Update

Coffee Date Vol.11: Positive Self-Talk

There are 3 days left in 2024 and I’m honestly s

There are 3 days left in 2024 and I’m honestly so thrilled to say goodbye to this year 👋🏾😅. I’m typically the one sharing the highlight reels and screaming from the mountaintops how amazing the year was, but this year felt ridiculously hard in many ways. I saw a meme the other day that quite literally summed up 2024 perfectly for me (check out the last slide for a little chuckle 🤪).

The last time I felt this tested in my faith was probably 2008/2009, but even then, in the dark night and in the struggle God never left me. Thankfully, I can feel it in my bones that the tides are beginning to turn. I saw a quote earlier this Fall that said “Some years you win, some years build character.” In many ways I won. I’m healthy, my family is healthy- we are alive and well but in other ways, I have felt defeat, a little lost and as the year comes to an end, pretty exhausted. Transitions & unanticipated growth all stink, but are all apart of the process. All of these things are necessary for that next level of greatness. There is greatness inside of all of us & we are capable of leveling up. There is more… 😌

For anyone else who felt like 2024 took them out, know that you’re not alone. I am rooting for you and I am believing for you and with you, that 2025 will be incredibly restorative, healing & cause you to forget the discomfort & trials that 2024 had to offer. THE BEST IS YET TO COME 🫶🏾!!! #LetsDoThis

PRAISE BREAK😆💃🏾!!!! Because won’t He Do

PRAISE BREAK😆💃🏾!!!! Because won’t He Do It!!! I have to take a minute and give God the highest praise ✨

We were selected as one of the first creators to be setting sail on the #disneytreasure this week and I don’t take one bit of this for granted- truly a massive blessing. I know that a lot of us as influencers and creators show our highlight reels but sometimes behind the scenes are difficult seasons that we are enduring! It’s been one of those years, yet God has been so faithful to show us his love in the midst of hard times & remind me that He has not taken His hand off of my life.

If you feel like you are struggling to get on the other side of something hard, know that God says in His word that He will never leave you, nor forsake you. The tides will turn and the JOY is coming ✨
