I woke up this morning, GRATEFUL.
I went to bed, THANKFUL.
If God would have told me 4 years ago that He was going to allow the type of wreckage in my life that would cause me to let go of everything I’d built to that point, isolate me by sending me to another state and separating me from everything I held dear…well. I would have told Him “ACCESS DENIED” …I’m not doing that. Get someone else to do it. I’m busy.
Well, that’s the beauty in the unknown with God. He doesn’t always tell us everything. Matter of fact, His preferred way just may be to let us walk around in complete ignorant bliss about what the future holds because IF we get in the way of how He wants to do it, then I guess we’ll never reach His fullest potential placed in us.
We sit silently comfortable and complacent with where we are because we feel we have done all we can to get to where we want to be.
That’s a problem for Him.
He sees more than we see and all we were created to be is massively more than our minds capacity can sometimes handle.
He has to shift us and in the shifting it’s uncomfortable, ugly and absolutely mind-boggling…
UNTIL He shows the plan all along was to blow our minds.
I started traveling as a form of escape, therapy and release from the stress I was dealing with. I started sharing my “experiencece”…honestlyy because I felt like I was losing my mind.
I told God in the midst of that mess, I don’t wanna go back to work, I do not want to build businesses anymore. I DEFINTELY don’t want no mo’ employees. You took me out of it when I was at the height of it and right now all I want to do is travel and live life like a dream on somebodies beach or retreat.
I want peace, God.
I’ll still sit with women who need to hear my story. I’ll still share who You are to me. I’ll still go where you tell me too. I want all that I know I deserve because I know I serve YOU well. Just let me do it in a way that fulfills me this time.
Real talk.
That’s what I told Him.
And SO, thats what He delivered.
I didn’t go looking for these connections. God brought them to me because…
SOMEONE
SOMEWHERE
IS TELLING
SOMEONE
HOW AMAZING
MY WORK IS…
AND BECAUSE OF THAT MOMENT FOUR YEARS AGO WHEN MY LIFE WAS SEEMINGLY WRECKED…
I WAS BEING PREPARED FOR THE LIFE CHANGING REFERRALS THAT HAVE NOW COME AND ARE STILL COMING MY WAY! 
In the escape, in the travel, in the therapeutic healing of it all…I pivoted in my purpose and I LOVE IT HERE!
Not only am I traveling and sitting, sippin’ and speaking on beaches around the world BUT I am still fully preserved in my purpose and calling to build God an army of women set free from what hinders and holds them.
Booked, Busy & Breaking Bondage. I am linked arm and arm with some amazing women in a movement that invites women to rest, restore, release, rejuvenate and rebuild. Whatever it is you need, whatever it is you desire, I promise if you just take the step to invest in yourself, the rest will follow.
