PSA‼️
This morning I woke up at 2:00 a.m., and I was led to watch a video I had posted a few days ago. In doing so, I began to see some things that had been blind spots for me personally, and I want to take a moment to give you all a public apology.
I used to host a live podcast called TNT News Live, and when I brought it back for a second series, I noticed I wasn’t getting the same response as before. Although I was sharing testimonies, my presentation didn’t always reflect what was in my heart. Looking back, I now realize that in some of my photos I appeared provocative showing cleavage or wearing very fitted clothing. At the time, I thought of myself as being classy, but the Holy Spirit convicted me to take a closer look.
Recently, while reviewing some photos a friend had taken of me, I noticed that my cleavage was showing. That was never my intention, but I also realized that I had been receiving compliments about being “sexy.” Not so much on recent photos, but definitely on older ones even on my old podcast cover where my outfit was very tight. At the time the Lord was dealing with me about this but i wasn’t ready to receive the correction.
My desire has always been to honor God, but when I looked back at my videos, I saw that certain angles revealed more than I intended, and I felt deeply convicted. That same night, around 2 a.m., I began deleting all of those photos because, while I was talking about testimonies, my attire was actually distracting and not good representative of my new.
Now, I’m much more mindful. Even if I think nothing is showing, certain angles or movements can reveal more than I realize.
So, I want to sincerely apologize, because it was never my intention to present myself in a provocative way. I know I need to be more intentional about making sure my attire is both stylish and modest ensuring that my private areas are properly covered, even when wearing fitted clothing.
I even wrote a letter to my previous audience, because I noticed I wasn’t receiving the same response anymore, and I realized that this was part of the reason. What I wore didn’t truly reflect my heart, and that was a blind spot for me.
Once again, I sincerely apologize. Moving forward, I will be more intentional in making sure that what I represent reflects modesty, honor, and a standard that can be embraced both inside and outside of the church.
