I was looking at photos of myself from ten years ago confident, fearless, colorful.
Somewhere along the way, survival took over.

Lately, the word surviving has been echoing in my head.
Getting through the day.
Wondering if time is running out.
Wondering if I waited too long.

But today, I’m choosing something different.
I called 2025 my Metamorphosis year
but the truth is, I’m still coming out.
Still shedding. Still growing. Still becoming.

Going forward, this space will reflect my walk
with God, with healing, and with becoming whole.
You’ll see faith woven into everyday life, honest growth in real time, movement and wellness as acts of care, creativity as worship, planning and beauty with grace, travel, joy, and lived experiences
not just highlight reels.

Less perfection.
More presence.
Less surviving.
More living.

This is a space for growth, grace, and alignment.
If you’re in a season of becoming too, you’re welcome here 🤍🦋

Celebrating International Women’s Day—starting with me! Sometimes, I catch myself being too humble, too selfless—to the point where I shrink myself. But here’s the truth: two things can be true… You’re a queen, and I am too. ✨👑

Art journaling is more than just creativity—it’s a reflection of who I am and the masterpiece I’m becoming. Every layer, every color, and every detail tells a story of growth, transformation, and purpose.

Had an amazing junk journaling session today, pouring our hearts onto the pages and embracing the beauty of self-expression! If you missed this one, stay posted for the next—trust me, and you won’t want to miss it!

Huge shoutout to Robin of for this stunning artwork that speaks volumes! Want to grab some of her creations for your own journey? Use my code Merli15 to get started. (Birdie told me it might be available soon 👀)

“And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.” – Philippians 1:6

Words have power, but only if we accept them. ✨

At some point, we’ve all been wounded by the words of people we thought would love us unconditionally. But here’s the truth: NO ONE else gets to define YOU. Their opinions, projections, or pain do not determine your worth or your future.

When hurtful words come, pause—don’t absorb them. Ask yourself: Is this true? Does this align with who I know myself to be? If not, RELEASE IT. Replace it with truth. You are growing. You are healing. You are evolving.

Never let someone’s doubt about you become your belief about yourself. You are worthy, you are enough, and you are becoming everything you were created to be. 💫

Drop a 🦋 if you’re on this journey of transformation!

Melanated Melodies Kit created by use code: Merli15

Unapologetic Crown

My melanin is sun-kissed rebellion
dipped in chocolate, bronzed in power.
They called my skin a storm,
but I am the lightning.

Built altars from their “can’t,”
bloomed gardens where they saw thorns.
Too bold? Too alive? My voice is a drum
that cracks the sky.

Black woman—unshrinking,
unstarved, a hurricane of “still”
My skin, my anthem. My rise,
a hymn. 🌟

They seek to strip us of our power
first, our rights, then our livelihoods.
Do we boycott, or do we not?
Division, their weapon of choice,
so we can’t unite, can’t rise together.

But we’ve been here before.
Taken without permission,
worked to the bone for scraps,
yet we climbed.
We fought, we thrived, and we excelled—
dazzling them, outworking them,
outproducing, outmedaling.
First, in every category, they swore we couldn’t touch.
And we’re not finished.

Why are they so mad?
Is it because our melanin defies time,
refusing to wrinkle like grapes left to shrivel in the sun?
They forget
we were built for this.
God’s chosen.

This time will be the last time.
We will rise, unbroken.
We will overcome.

Here’s to 2025—a year of transformation, courage, and unapologetic self-expression. This photo, this edit, and this caption were a journey of self-discovery. I wrestled with questions: “Does this reflect who I am or who I want to become?” Fear of judgment froze me for a moment, but I pushed through, adding color and a word for the year, and said, “Let’s go!”

This year, I’m embracing my truth: I am sexy, even when I doubt it. I am beautiful, even on the days I don’t feel it. My smile is the light that connects me to others, and I’ll share it freely. I’m starting 2025 from a baseline, with big goals for my body, mind, and career. Time is fleeting, so I’m moving with urgency, leaving no word of love or encouragement unsaid, even if it’s not returned.

I’ll do all the things—even if fear tries to hold me back. Bold, beautiful, and blessed, I will keep moving forward no matter the circumstances. This year is about transformation in every decision we make. Let’s go be the change. Let’s get it!
