I attended a funeral today and it was mine. In that casket lay, not a woman, but all the brokenness I was carrying. All the shame that had held me captive, all the guilt that was holding my soul hostage. In that casket lay all the rage, the fear, the anxiety, all the wants that people did not have the capacity to give me. All the rejection, abandon…

It's also that place that I'd like…

Who are you? How do we heal? I've listened to so many people talk about the degrees of healing. I've listened to the word trauma being thrown around so loosely. But what does this look like for me? What does this look like for you? How do we confront and sit with ourselves in our own trauma? We can no longer hide or walk away. What happens when we …

I'm coming to you today because I just want you to know that Real Sisters REEL Talk will have an over…

Hello Beloveds, The first thing I heard this morning was when the shoe doesn’t fit, which immediately made me think about Cinderella. We all know the story about how the prince sought out the woman who could fit that shoe. Cinderella’s shoe was probably the same size as someone else’s but did not fit her the same way. That is because when God puts …

Hello Beloveds, Today I want to share a quote: "Change is supremely inconvenient, uncomfortable and naturally scary.
