And just like that…I have a kindergartener 🥹💙

I’ve been sitting in my car outside of my job for a minute… just holding my book.

This past Friday, I was told that my position is being eliminated at the end of August.

Ironically…

I’m not sad and I’m not scared either.

It’s probably because almost two years without a job taught me that my security was never in a paycheck but was always in God.

If you’ve been following my journey, then you’ve seen it all.

The prayers.
The waiting.
The rejection emails.
The uncertainty.
The moments I questioned what God was doing.
The breakthrough.

And now…another transition.

Two weeks ago, I published Not Ya Granny’s Devotionals where I wrote about trusting God even when life doesn’t make sense.

Now, I’m living those words in real time…AGAIN.

Do I know what’s next? I wish. 😅 But I know Who goes before me. So instead of asking, “Why is this happening?”

I’m asking…

“Okay God…what You up to?!”

Frfr, I’m excited to find out. 😮‍💨

Looks like we’re about to start another chapter together. Buckle up buttercup! 😂❤️

It took me a whole week to post these pictures because I had to process what I experienced. 😂 Like literally…I’ve been gagged all week over the House of Bolin.

I originally signed up to attend as a guest, but I ended up volunteering because I wanted to play even the smallest role in helping bring J.Bolin’s vision to life.

Every detail felt so intentional. 😍 It was more than a fashion experience. From the staff, to the volunteers, to the contractors…everyone reflected his heart, and that made the entire experience even more special.

One thing I admire most is how he continues to use his platform to elevate other people. The models. The designers. The small business owners. He creates spaces where other people get to shine, and that’s the
kind of leadership that leaves a lasting impact.

I wanted to capture everything, but my role for the day wasn’t content creator…it was volunteer. 😂 But if you’re thinking about attending the next House of Bolin experience, don’t wait for everyone else’s content. Get in the room and experience it for yourself. Trust me.

I still can’t believe this was “just” a pop-up experience. 😂 My dopamine levels go up every time I scroll through these pictures. I NEEDS that kind of joy on a daily basis!

He’s an icon. He’s a legend. He IS the moment.

Well done, big bro. 👏🏾💐❤️

I wasn’t expecting texts like this so soon. 🥹

Shoutout to Amazon for getting these books to folks within 48 hours of release 🙌🏽

Knowing someone couldn’t put it down and is already encountering God by page 26… that’s why I wrote this book.

Every chapter was written from a place of surrender, healing, and learning God’s heart in motherhood. To know He’s meeting readers in those same pages is something I’ll never take for granted.

Thank you to everyone who’s reading, sharing, and encouraging me. Your messages mean more than you know. 🥰

Not Ya Granny’s Devotionals: Experiencing God’s Love and Healing Through Motherhood is available now on Amazon. You can find the link in my bio. 🩵

I’ve been trying to be outside more in Dallas 🤷🏽‍♀️

Do people even post selfies anymore? Idk, but when I called my baby boy on FaceTime the first thing he said to me was “OMG mommy, you look so beautiful!” 🥰
That’s all the validation I needed to feel like a baddie 😭 Teaching him while he’s young.

Chapter 34 🙌🏽

This time last year, I was driving down the highway unsure of everything in my life.

Honestly, I was in despair. I felt like I had reached rock bottom. I was battling suicidal thoughts, exhausted from fighting battles I didn’t understand, and the weapons formed felt very prosperous.

Then, a rock hit my windshield. That was my final straw.

I watched the crack begin to spread, and in that moment, it felt symbolic of my entire life. Everything seemed to be falling apart. That was my breaking point. I cried out to God, started banging the steering wheel, and screamed from a place so deep within me that I didn’t recognize my own voice. I closed my eyes and started speeding….

BUT GOD told me “Open your eyes and look ahead,” and He calmed my mind enough for me to safely make it to my destination, a live podcast taping. The host’s mother had no idea what I had just experienced, but she prayed over me and my mind, and gave me a hug that only a mother could.

From that day to today, all I can say is thank You, Lord. Thank You for keeping me when I almost lost my mind. Thank You for providing for me and protecting me. Thank You for sending people over this past year to love on me and my son. Thank You for giving me peace. Thank You for quieting the noise in my mind.

Crazy part about it is, that crack started at the edge of the passenger side of my windshield. I watched it spread across the glass, but before it ever reached my side, it curved upward.

Immediately, I thought about how so many things over the past two years looked like they would destroy me. It seemed like the enemy was winning. Yet God never allowed those weapons to touch what He was preserving and I started clinging to Him like never before.

So, this birthday means more than cute pictures, makeup, or an outfit.

This birthday is evidence that I MADE IT!

And if you’re reading this feeling like you’re at your lowest point, I pray you hold on. There is life after despair. There is peace after chaos. There is purpose after pain. ❤️

I AM THE BIRTHDAY 😝💁🏽‍♀️
