Perfectly Whole

With all the ups and downs of life, it can be easy to wonder why unfortunate, uncomfortable, downright painful things happen to us. Throughout my life, and recently as a divorcé, I’ve found myself asking if God cares about my feelings or my circumstance. Sure, some suffering is self-inflicted, but what about the times when you’ve been striving to live an upright life and still experience suffering?

I've been going to God about this in prayer and in His word, and found so much comfort in the scriptures below. I break it all down in this episode and hope it helps you endure and overcome whatever suffering you've been faced with.

• Hebrews 12:1-4
• 2 Corinthians 10:3-6
• Matt 28:19-20
• Romans 8 (not mentioned in the episode but gives great guidance on this topic)

Hey Sis! God's been dealing with me in the area of faith and truly surrendering to Him, and I'd love to share the scripture that's been helping me with that (Isaiah 43:18-19). Also in this episode, we discuss the struggle that comes with change, surrendering control to God, and having faith to see what God wants us to see in every situation.

As we forget the past and focus on what God is doing in this present moment, we can take hold of God's promise to make a way in the wilderness and provide for our needs.

Welcome to Season 7 Sis!! Before we talk about anything else, we HAVE to talk about God's healing power. Restoration is not out of reach for us... it's real. And what brings it within reach is our willingness to surrender to the only one truly capable of restoring our souls. Let's chop it up Sis... I know this episode will bless you!

As mentioned in the video, feel free to read more on how God restores you.

Hey Sis! The new year is here and instead of making resolutions, you can simply choose one word to focus on in multiple areas of your life. What's one thing that, if you gave it some dedicated effort, would make a difference in how your year goes? In this episode, I share what my word for 2023 was, and my word for 2024. I hope it inspires you to look inwardly as you declare your focus for the year ahead!

Hey Sis! I hope you're getting rest this season or planning to soon. As you prep for the new year or unwind (or both), I want to remind you why you (and only you) have to pursue that dream in your heart. Yep, that goal, that vision, that business, that position, that thing tucked away in your wildest dreams. It's a perspective you may not have considered. I also share a story about a trip to the gym that didn't lead to a workout but instead boosted my faith (hint: it's the small things). Will you let me encourage you as we bring the year to a close? I hope so.

And if I do, please share this episode with a friend to spread the love. :)

Hey Sis! As a recently divorced woman, I face all sorts of feelings... shame being one of the most frequent. I've been taking this burden to God, and he's been showing me why even when I'm triggered by shame, I don't have to own it.

In this episode, I walk through the scriptures I've been reading in this tough season, the perspective I battled with when shame triggered me, and the message God placed on my heart regarding all this – from guilt and shame to sin and redemption. I pray it brings you more joy!

Hey Sis! In this second episode about behaviors I'm unlearning, we take a deep dive into low self-worth and how that showed up as codependency for me. I am not a licensed mental health professional but share some tactics and practices I've learned in therapy and good ol' trial and error. I hope you find it as helpful as I have.

This series offers you practical steps to take in your own journey, language to put to what you're going through, and encouragement to keep going because you're not alone on this journey of life. If you enjoy it, let your girl know and share the episode with others!

In each of the Unlearning Series episodes, I share:

1. A definition of the behavior

2. How it showed up in my life

3. When I reached a breaking point (that made me want to unlearn this behavior)

4. What I did to unlearn this behavior

5. And what I do now to keep from turning to old ways

Also, I suggest you check out the Black Girls Heal Podcast as a resource for discovering your self-worth and growing your self-love. Alright Sis, have an awesome week!

Hey Sis! As promised, I am doing a short series on behaviors/mindsets worth unlearning. I'm kicking it off with emotional detachment because that's one of the first behaviors I had to unlearn on my journey back to myself.

In each of the series episodes, I will share:

1. A definition of the behavior

2. How it showed up in my life

3. When I reached a breaking point (that made me want to unlearn this behavior)

4. What I did to unlearn this behavior

5. And what I do now to keep from turning to old ways

I hope this series offers you practical steps to take in your own journey, language to put to what you're going through, and encouragement to keep going because you're not alone on this journey of life. If you enjoy it, let your girl know and share the episode with others!

Also, I suggested in this epi that you also listen to epi 38: How to Mother Yourself for more tips on how to show up for yourself. Alright Sis, have an awesome week!
