Grandma Netta hadn't really celebrated the holidays for years. The decorations remained in their boxes, the radio silent, and December came and went just like any other month, only colder, only darker. After her husband died, the holidays were too loud with memories, too full of spaces he used to fill.But this year was different.This... Continue Reading →
I believe that just embracing who I am has been my biggest achievement. As far back as I can remember, I thought that accomplishments are something you could point to diplomas earned, to goals met, to celebrations had. But as I grew, I began to realize that there is something far more powerful than anything... Continue Reading →
Weekend Breathing The clock loosens its grip on the day,and time learns how to sit down.Plans soften into maybes,and the world exhales with you.Morning comes without urgency.Let the week set itself down.Let worry fold like laundry, unfinished.You are allowed to rest.You are allowed to be.The weekend holds you gently,and nothing more is required.
There are these moments in life when truth comes quietly, but its presence can be undeniably heavy. It settles into your chest, disrupts the familiar narrative, and asks you to stop. In those moments, it's tempting to think that truth has come to punish you-to expose what you have overlooked, tolerated, or hoped would change.... Continue Reading →
One of life's deeper heartbreaks is the loss of a spouse. It affects one's daily routines, sense of identity, safety, and perception of the future. A partner who shared your burdens, dreams, and silent moments is now taken, and the silence is just too great to fill. Overwhelmed, maybe-but starting over after a loss is... Continue Reading →
The Saturday came with a gentleness that only happens when a week has been as long and grueling as this one has been. Ericka led the charge, entering the restaurant, scanning the room from habit rather than need. She spotted their table, the one by the window that always caught the light exactly right, and... Continue Reading →
There comes a point in every spiritual journey when everything shifts. Sometimes it's gradually, a slow awakening that gently nudges you toward a new chapter. Other times, it's born out of trauma-an abrupt, painful breaking that forces you to rebuild your inner world from the ground up. When one restarts spiritually, one is not only... Continue Reading →
For so long, many have carried a quiet fear of winning. Not a fear of failure ironically, that part feels familiar. It’s the success, the breakthrough, the moment we finally rise that makes us shrink. When we achieve something meaningful, we instinctively soften it, downplay it, or apologize for it. “I wasn't trying to outshine... Continue Reading →
We are communicating the whole time, even when we don't even think about it. Every action we let slide, every crossed line we silently permitted, and each discomfort we swallow produces a message. This shows others what we value, what we expect from them, and above all, what we are willing to tolerate. It's a... Continue Reading →
https://videopress.com/v/fBXwpYSh?resizeToParent=true&cover=true&preloadContent=metadata&useAverageColor=true Little swirls of midnight gleam,Soft as dusk, with velvet crumbs,A hug for hearts, when comfort comes. A joy that melts the hardest weeks. Warm sweetness in a humble case. Oh chocolate cupcake, tiny delight,A simple spell in paper wrapped,A moment of magic sweetly tapped.
For when everything seems to pause your plans slow down, opportunities slip through your fingers, and the path ahead is not quite clear. These delays can stir frustration, confusion, and even doubt. But spiritually speaking, delays are never empty spaces. They are sacred pauses-divinely timed moments designed to shape you, protect you, and guide you... Continue Reading →
A new week is like an unopened gift: quiet on the outside, full of possibility inside. Whether last week felt like a victory lap or a wild maze, this one arrives with a gentle reset button. It asks only one thing: start where you are. Mondays often get a bad reputation, but they hold a... Continue Reading →
Spirituality is usually discussed as peaceful, uplifting, and full of love and light. And it can be all of these things. However, there's one more side to that, which not too many people discuss-the part that makes you sit in discomfort, face the patterns, and finally acknowledge parts of yourself that you would much rather... Continue Reading →
First holiday season without my hubby. Lately, I've been getting through days as though I am made of glass, fragile, see-through. I'm mentally and emotionally exhausted in a way that doesn't flare up loudly but instead lingers like a weight I carry everywhere. It's not so much that I do not want to care about... Continue Reading →
If you didn't need sleep, what would you do with all the extra time? Definitely to write more books.
We often wait for the right timing, the right plan, or the right version of ourselves, hoping that one day things will feel "ready." But here's a dose of reality: life is brief, and the perfect moment is but an illusion we have been socialized to pursue. Go easy on yourself. You're navigating a world... Continue Reading →
In every person's life, there comes a moment when one feels the tug between who they truly are and who the world prefers them to be. Subtle at first, it's an unspoken pressure to shrink a little, blend in a little, or tone yourself down so no one feels threatened, intimidated, or left behind. But... Continue Reading →
Grief is perhaps one of the most complicated emotional states there exists as a human. It does not move along a linear path, according to the milestone book, or some clearly defined stage process. It shows up instead as shifting weather: some days, clear and manageable; others, stormy and overwhelming. And the truth is, both... Continue Reading →
It's tempting to think that our progress only counts when it's visible-when it's photographed, approved, applauded, or understood by others. But some of the most meaningful growth happens in private, away from the eyes and opinions of the world. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is be proud of yourself in silence. You... Continue Reading →
It feels, at times, like a rare luxury in a world constantly tugging at our attention and demanding our energy while filling our days with so much noise. But the truth is much simpler, far more empowering: peace is a personal gift you give yourself. It is not given to you by circumstances; it is... Continue Reading →
There's a kind of wisdom that comes from looking back on a situation and realizing you knew the truth long before you acted on it. Most of us have lived through moments where spirit, intuition, or that quiet inner voice whispered "no" yet something in us stayed, tried, or hoped anyway. And when the lesson... Continue Reading →
In life we realize healing isn't something we find outside; it's something we cultivate inside. To love oneself is not an act but a gentle, continuous process. It's that moment when you realize your worth isn't defined by how polished you appear, how composed you seem, or how well you carry the burden of the... Continue Reading →
As the week winds down and the weekend peeks around the corner, today is a gentle reminder to pause, take a breath, and acknowledge how far you have come. Even if the past few days felt chaotic or imperfect, you made it here with lessons learned, small victories earned, and strength you might not even... Continue Reading →
This is one of the most powerful lessons we learn on the journey of self-growth: you can fully accept people and, at the same time, protect your peace.Acceptance does not mean access.Love is not necessarily about proximity. And understanding someone does not mean that you have to carry them. We are always trying to fit... Continue Reading →
There are times in your life when the path ahead is just hazy, when you can't quite see where you're going and every step feels more like a question than an answer. And it's during those times that you start to wonder if you've taken a wrong turn or stepped off of your path entirely.... Continue Reading →
Life can sometimes favor convenience over conviction, standing for the truth feels like a barefoot walk through a rocky path: painful, uncertain, and sometimes lonely. Yet, it is on this very path that our spirit is refined and our inner light starts to shine the brightest.The Quiet Power of TruthTruth is not always loud or... Continue Reading →
Each new week comes as a fresh, white sheet of paper, waiting for us to fill it with hope, gratitude, and good wishes. The energy we bring into our Monday often sets the tone for the days that follow. That’s why choosing optimism even in small ways can transform the way we experience our week.... Continue Reading →
On this day of light and stillness, I honor those who came before me.Their wisdom flows through my veins, their love anchors my spirit.I walk in grace, guided by their strength and blessings.May my actions today uplift their legacy and illuminate my path.
I’ve lately been reminded that not every day will feel like progress. There are days in which motivation runs low, where all feels slow or uncertain, and where the only thing you manage to do is show up to your life, to your work, to your healing, to your routines. And maybe that’s enough. I... Continue Reading →

Begin with stillness. Sit with... Continue Reading →
Yes, therein lies great wisdom when one knows to step back, when to stop explaining, and when to walk away peacefully rather than in anger. Living in an age when all want to be heard, when every moment is filled with chatter, and when stillness is mistaken for weakness. Yet, there is divine strength in... Continue Reading →
When Your Spirit Says “No” When something just doesn’t sit right. You can’t always explain it, perhaps a friendship that suddenly feels heavy, family members or a job that drains your peace, or a space that no longer feels aligned with who you’re becoming. Your spirit starts whispering, “This isn’t for you.” That whisper is... Continue Reading →
With each journey when something just doesn’t sit right. You can’t always explain it, perhaps a friendship that suddenly feels heavy, family members or a job that drains your peace, or a space that no longer feels aligned with who you’re becoming. Your spirit starts whispering, “This isn’t for you.” That whisper is discernment, your... Continue Reading →
It's 2025, and to many of us, the world feels heavier than it used to. The headlines are relentless political chaos, people losing jobs, families struggling to keep food on the table. The conversations online feel sharper, more divided. And in the quiet moments, when you put your phone down, it's hard not to feel... Continue Reading →
Family is generally romanticized as the one constant in life of a built-in support system that's supposed to love and accept us regardless. But for many people, that's not how things turn out. Instead, family can be the source of deep emotional wounds, toxic relationships, and long-term mental suffering. If you've ever felt depleted, anxious,... Continue Reading →
We like to speak of healing in terms of destination a place of wholeness, light, and peace. And yet healing is actually more a matter of surrender than of arrival. It calls us to let go of our grip on the familiar patterns of pain, to have faith in the mysterious, and to allow our... Continue Reading →
We all come to a place in life where we realize that control is an illusion. We can plan, prepare, and organize, but no matter how diligently we try to force things to occur, life always seems to remind us that we are not in control. Instead of fighting, I am learning to yield. I... Continue Reading →
Danita Carter was drained, the kind that penetrated to the bone and tugged at the edges of her eyelids. It was nearing midnight, and she stood in her small apartment kitchen, delicately taking a cheesecake out of the oven. The plum-colored sweet potato filling was smooth, the top golden in spots, waiting for its shiny... Continue Reading →
Strength in What We Do Not Say When we think of strength, we often envision vocal victories, forceful declarations, or external resilience. Yet, some of the most powerful strength lies not in what we say, but in the quiet wars we wage within ourselves. Quiet wars those unseen battles that never get translated into words,... Continue Reading →
Life has a way of revealing the truth about the people around us. You don’t always see someone’s true character when everything is going smoothly. It’s often in difficult, unexpected, or transitional moments that the masks come off and you discover who’s genuinely in your corner—and who’s been pretending all along. Hard Times Reveal True... Continue Reading →

The school building buzzed with activity that fall. Therapy sessions filled out the mornings, art therapy filled the afternoons, and the thunder of children's laughter echoed down once-vacant hallways. But Tasheena was never able to shake the feeling of eyes focused on her a moment too long. One evening, as she locked the front doors,... Continue Reading →
Life rarely unfolds in a straight line. Rather, it's a zigzag, with twists and turns, surprises and moments of clarity and confusion. At those moments, a simple declaration can serve as an anchor: "I trust the path unfolding before me, and I walk it with peace, courage, and gratitude." Trusting the Path Trust is not... Continue Reading →
The silence between Katina and Vette strained as tight as a rope waiting to snap. Every glance, every word was heavy with tension neither woman was daring enough to face. The office was thriving, but the sleek surface concealed a storm brewing. The agency hosted a mixer that Friday night with potential clients and community... Continue Reading →

The success of the new Mama’s Kitchen location was undeniable. Newspapers praised it as “the soul of the city on a plate,” while local news stations ran features on the legacy behind its recipes. Long lines wrapped around the block on weekends, with people eager to taste the fried catfish, collard greens, and candied yams... Continue Reading →
We are wired for connection. From our earliest ancestors relying on the tribe for survival to the modern dopamine hit of a new like or follow, our brains scream one overriding command: Be liked. Belong. This deep imperative renders one of life's most common experiences into a personal failure: being disliked. We usually get ourselves... Continue Reading →
Have you ever sensed that you are waiting to be approved? For the job to choose you, for somebody to acknowledge your worth, for the opportunity to arrive at you once and for all? We stand by our life station and look at validation trains of success and love go by and hope that one... Continue Reading →
It's a profound shift from seeking external validation to cultivating an internal source of worth. 1. Understand Why It's Necessary First, recognize that relying on others for love is like building a house on sand. The opinions, attention, and affection of others are inherently unstable and outside of your control. When your self-worth is tied... Continue Reading →
The peace of that moment in the common room felt like a perfect, fragile bubble. It was a feeling Jayla clung to, a stark contrast to the cold panic of that Tuesday notification months ago.

The glow from Chika’s laptop was a small, defiant campfire in the dark expanse of her penthouse apartment. Royce slept in her bed, the steady rhythm of his breathing a stark contrast to the frantic beat of her heart. Verdant Logic’s first major client, a sleek European bank, was launching in six hours, and a... Continue Reading →
What Consistent Nastiness Reveals It's a Pattern, Not a Reaction: Everyone can have a bad day and snap at someone. That's human. But when it's a person's default mode with everyone from family and coworkers to the server at a restaurant it points to a deep-seated internal issue, not a reaction to external circumstances. It... Continue Reading →
We'd rather imagine that our enemies are distant individuals a rival in some other city, a personal flaw we'll "get right one day," a looming issue that we can see from miles away. It makes us comfortable. It gives the illusion of power. But the truth is far more sinister. Whether on some figural battlefield,... Continue Reading →
We spend a great amount of time discussing forgiving others. We analyze their mistakes, ruminate over our wounds, and work through the hard labor of releasing anger. But there is a far greater, and overlooked, forgiveness that comes before it: the forgiveness we owe to ourselves. If you were to re-read your life, or rather... Continue Reading →
You know the feeling. That subtle, nagging sense that you’re busy but not necessarily productive. That you’re moving fast, but perhaps not in the right direction. You’re ticking tasks off a list, but the list itself doesn’t seem to connect to anything bigger. In our constantly connected, high-speed world, it's far too simple to be... Continue Reading →
Ever spent a day feeling totally drained, but when you thought back on it, you hadn't really done anything that taxing? Or been so caught up in a project you loved that hours flew by like minutes and you finished it feeling energized, not drained? No coincidence. It's the clear reflection of a simple yet...

The gentle glow of Chika Harris's three monitors was the only light still lit on the 38th floor of AetherTech. It was Friday night at 8 PM. Again. Her fingers, that blur of proficient keystrokes, were still. She looked at the lines of code, not seeing solutions, but seeing cages. Another of her brilliant ideas... Continue Reading →
The Tuesday notification. A chilly, PDF email: "Your job has been eliminated." That's it. Five years of struggling along at the marketing agency, wiped out. Jayla Davis, 32, in her apartment in Fairview, the echoing of her now-shut-off work laptop the only sound. Panic growing, a wave of heat in her chest. Rent was coming... Continue Reading →
The Core Idea: Outgrowing Your Old OS Think of your mind and your habits as an operating system (like Windows or macOS). It was installed in your childhood and early adulthood by your parents, teachers, culture, and experiences. It worked well enough to get you this far. But now, you're trying to run new, more...

We've all been there the suffocating burden of a past failure that repeats, the rage of a situation we have no control over, or the silent disappointment when others don't meet our expectations. It drains us. It's like trying to race with a sack of rocks on your shoulders. Imagine you could put that backpack... Continue Reading →
Have you ever noticed how some problems keep coming back no matter how much you try to fix them? You might be treating the symptoms while ignoring the root cause.

Boundaries are a crucial aspect of spiritual protection. They help safeguard your energy, emotional well-being, and spiritual growth by defining what you allow into your space physically, emotionally, and energetically.

Honoring our emotions is a powerful practice that allows us to understand ourselves on a deeper level. Each feeling, whether joy, sadness, anger, or fear, carries valuable insights. By acknowledging and embracing these emotions, we create space for healing and personal growth. Instead of pushing them away, we can learn to sit with them, reflect,... Continue Reading →
There’s an old truth that never loses relevance: you reap what you sow. It's easy to associate this with success, hard work, or financial rewards. But where this principle cuts the deepest is in our relationships particularly in how we treat people. We often underestimate the long-term effects of our actions, especially the way we... Continue Reading →
Letting go of the need to prove anything to others or even to ourselves can be incredibly freeing. It creates space for authenticity, growth, and peace.

First birthday since his death. I miss him so so much. I’m tired. Not just the kind of tired that sleep can fix but soul tired. A weariness that sits in my bones and refuses to lift.

There comes a point in your spiritual journey when the things that once comforted you begin to feel strangely out of alignment. What used to feel like home suddenly feels confining.

As we move through life personally, emotionally, and professionally we inevitably grow and evolve. Along the way, we may find that certain relationships no longer fit the person we’re becoming.

Hey everyone, I know life in 2025 is pretty wild right now. We're all moving through rapid changes, big feelings, unexpected plot twists and somehow still showing up, still holding on, still hoping.

The front door to the Macklin Youth Empowerment Center creaked shut behind Alaina Burris as she stepped into the dimly lit main room. The late afternoon sun threw long shadows across the tiled floor, catching on the faces of the children in the framed photos along the wall. Kids smiling during coding class, a dance...

There’s a powerful kind of peace that comes from realizing this one simple truth: What they say about me is none of my business. For most of my life, I was tuned in to the frequency of other people’s opinions listening, analyzing, absorbing. I’d replay conversations in my head, wondering if I said the “right”... Continue Reading →
The weekend is finally here, and it's time to pause, breathe, and recharge.

There’s a quiet sacred truth that so many people learn the hard way: how you treat others can determine how long your blessings last. In this unpredictable world status, money, and attention often take center stage, it's easy to forget that these things are fragile. They can feel permanent earned, deserved, even guaranteed but they’re... Continue Reading →
Family is often seen as a safe haven a place of unconditional love, support, and belonging. But what happens when the very people meant to nurture and protect you become a source of pain, confusion, and emotional manipulation?

Life definitely has a way of turning without warning. One moment, everything feels steady the next, we are left breathless in the wake of sudden loss. When someone we love is taken from us without warning, the world feels cruel, unfair, and utterly broken. And yet… even in this pain, there can still be space... Continue Reading →
The silence I was taught to keep was not my true nature it was survival.A balm pressed between generations.A vow made with eyes lowered and voice tucked behind teeth.But silence has weight.It gathers in the bones,becomes ache in the chest,a lump in the throat that waits for my permission to become song.I was not born...

In every community, workplace, family, or online space, there’s always one thing that spreads faster than truth: rumors. People talk about other people constantly. They whisper, assume, judge, and speculate all without having the full picture. But there’s an ancient proverb that still rings true today:“Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a... Continue Reading →
We often talk about the people who wrong us directly the ones who lie, manipulate, abuse, betray, or belittle. But there's another group whose impact is just as spiritually significant, though more subtle and often overlooked: the cosigner's. These are the silent observers, the passive witnesses, the ones who stood by and said nothing when... Continue Reading →
Every sunrise offers a new beginning a quiet invitation to grow, to evolve, to live more deeply and fully. And lately, I’ve been listening to that invitation more closely. The truth is, I am growing every day. Growth doesn’t always look like big, flashy changes. Sometimes, it’s as subtle as shifting your mindset, choosing to... Continue Reading →
There’s a quiet law of the universe that never misses: the way you treat people will eventually circle back to you. You might think you’re rising by stepping on others, dismissing their feelings, or acting as if their presence is disposable but life has a way of leveling the playing field. Not out of spite,... Continue Reading →
Mentally, I’ve cut everyone off. And I’m okay with it. Lately, I’ve felt something shift inside me. Not suddenly, not all at once but slowly, like a fog rolling in and settling over everything. I’ve mentally cut everyone off. No angry fallouts. No dramatic announcements. Just… silence. Distance. A quiet unraveling of connections I no... Continue Reading →
Life isn’t always neat. Sometimes it unravels. Sometimes, it explodes. And sometimes, it throws us into a whirlwind where nothing seems to make sense. But what if the chaos is not here to break us… but to awaken us? There’s a strange wisdom in disorder. When things fall apart, they also fall into place. The... Continue Reading →
Moments in life when growth feels solitary when change arrives like a wave crashing against the shore of who we once were. But beneath the noise of uncertainty, a quieter truth pulses:I do not rise alone.I rise with all that has ever lived within me.Each breath I take is borrowed from generations past. It carries... Continue Reading →
Spiritually, the journey I’m on now is unlike any I’ve experienced before. After the passing of my husband, everything I knew my routines, my sense of safety, even my sense of self was shaken. Grief has a way of bringing life to a standstill while at the same time demanding movement. It insists that we... Continue Reading →
"Stay true to you. What others do behind your back is on them. God sees all and karma is so real." In life, we will all face moments when we discover that people haven’t been as honest, loyal, or supportive as they appeared to be. Maybe it’s someone close a friend, a coworker, or even...

There is a knowing that rises from the soul a remembrance that we were not sent here to suffer endlessly.We are not here to make altars out of agony.We are here to transmute. To liberate. To return to wholeness. I will not live in service to pain.This is a prayer. A declaration. A line drawn... Continue Reading →
Which food, when you eat it, instantly transports you to childhood? A simple breakfast I like to have as a treat not often. Scrambled eggs with cheese, thick buttery grits, links and my mother's homemade biscuits. Takes me back to simpler times and the joys of being a child. I miss that feeling so much.
To speak a line of truth so pure not wrapped in pride, nor trimmed with fear,but rising from that inner corewhere silence listens, bright and clear. Not forged for praise, nor built to last,but breathed as though from ancient flame—a word so just, so free of mask,it does not cling to speaker's name. It ripples... Continue Reading →
We’re taught in society that strength means winning, being louder, pushing harder, rising above others. But real strength isn’t rooted in dominance it’s grounded in detachment. The Illusion of Dominance Dominance is seductive. It gives the illusion of control and superiority. But at its core, dominance is often fueled by insecurity. It demands validation, thrives...

Kandace Williamson had always felt the pulse of her family's legacy in the heart of the city. "Mama's Kitchen," the restaurant she inherited from her grandmother, was more than just a place to eat; it was a monument to love, resilience, and the rich history of their community. With its walls adorned with photographs of... Continue Reading →
What’s your favorite thing about yourself? The ability to detach from anyone when they show me who they really are. No going back and forth asking why. It's all good.
I call my power. With the guidance and protection of my ancestors.Protect my spirit. Shield my soul.Let the winds of truth circle me wide,No lies may pass, no fear may hide. I summon strength from root to crown,No force may shake, no chain hold down.My heart is flame, my will is steel,What I declare, the... Continue Reading →
Healing often involves: Sitting with pain and discomfort Reflecting on what hurt you and why Processing emotions (grief, anger, guilt) Making peace with the past Choosing healthier patterns moving forward Avoiding looks like: Constant distraction or busyness Minimizing or denying the pain Blaming others without introspection Refusing to talk or think about it Saying “I’m...

You’ve probably heard it before — maybe at a family dinner, in conversation with a friend, or when confronting someone about a problematic relative:“That’s just how they’ve been their whole life.”I heard this so much recently about my husband's mother and her behavior during this entire ordeal since he passed.It’s meant to be the end...

The world often applauds loud achievement over quiet intention, the line between ego and soul can blur. But beneath the surface of our ambitions and actions lies a truth worth pausing for: The Ego's Appetite Ego thrives on applause. It’s the voice in us that craves validation, attention, and status. It wants to be seen,... Continue Reading →
There’s something beautiful about moving at your own pace. Not rushing to keep up. Not slowing down to fit in. Just listening — really listening — to your own rhythm.
