Speak to the little girl in YOU.

 Becoming Her: Sis, It’s Time to Let That Hurt Go 💜

Sis, have you ever really sat down and talked to the little girl inside of you?

Not the grown woman who handles everything.
Not the woman everybody calls when they need something.
Not the woman who smiles and says, “I’m good,” even when she’s not.

I’m talking about little you.

The little girl who may still be carrying hurt from things she didn’t understand.

The little girl who needed an apology she never received.

The little girl who felt rejected, overlooked, abandoned, unheard, or like she had to grow up way too fast.

Sis… talk to her.

Tell her she doesn’t have to carry that anymore.

As I’m becoming HER, I’m realizing that some of the things holding me back today didn’t even start with the woman I am now. Some of it came from the little girl I used to be.

And if I’m not careful, I’ll keep allowing old wounds to make decisions for the woman I’m becoming.

Fear will tell me not to try.

Rejection will make me question whether I’m good enough.

Past hurt will make me push away good people.

Things that happened years ago will have me questioning things God is trying to do in my life right now.

But sis, we can’t keep doing that.

At some point, we have to tell that little girl:

Baby girl, I see you.
I know you were hurt.
I know some things happened that you didn’t deserve.
I know you didn’t understand why.
But you don’t have to keep carrying it.

And most importantly, give it to God.

I’m learning that healing doesn’t mean pretending it never happened. It means I’m no longer giving what happened permission to control where I’m going.

That hurt cannot keep holding me back.

That rejection cannot keep holding me back.

That disappointment cannot keep holding me back.

That version of me who was just trying to survive deserves to finally experience some peace.

And the woman I’m becoming deserves the opportunity to LIVE.

So in this season, I’m putting God first and allowing Him into the places I tried to hide, ignore, or handle by myself.

Because Becoming Her isn’t just about changing what people see on the outside.

It’s about healing what nobody can see on the inside.

Sis, speak to your inner child today.

Love on her.

Pray for her.

Forgive where you can.

Cry if you need to.

And then remind her:

We’re not staying there anymore.

God has too much ahead of us for us to keep living in what’s behind us.

Little girl, you survived it.

Now let the woman you’ve become walk with God into everything He has waiting for her. 💜🙏🏾✨

This is healing.
This is growth.
This is Becoming Her.

Becoming begins with Surrender

-
  Sis, becoming isn’t always about adding—it’s sometimes about releasing. In order to become, you must unbecome. You have to let go of the fear that keeps you stuck, the hurt that keeps you guarded, the guilt that keeps you looking back, and the version of yourself that no longer aligns with where God is taking you. God can’t fill hands that are still holding on to what He’s trying to remove. Some doors won’t open until you release what was only meant for a season. Some prayers won’t look the way you imagined because God is preparing something greater than you can see. Trust the pruning. Trust the stretching. Trust the process. Every “no,” every closed door, every lesson, and every tear is making room for the woman God has already called you to be. Don’t be afraid to outgrow old habits, old mindsets, old relationships, or old versions of yourself. Growth requires surrender. Sis, you’re not losing yourself—you are becoming who God created you to be. Keep releasing. Keep tru...

When Life Keeps LIFING: Becoming HER Through Weariness 💜

-
  Becoming HER: When You Feel Defeated and Life Just Keeps LIFING There are days when life feels heavy. Not because you’ve stopped believing. Not because you’ve given up. But because you’re simply… tired. Tired of carrying responsibilities. Tired of fighting battles no one else sees. Tired of showing up when your body and mind are asking for rest. I’ve had those days. Recently, it was supposed to be my day off, but I got called into work. If I’m being honest, my first response wasn’t gratitude—it was frustration. My body was tired, and my mind quickly followed. The truth is, I’m not just tired from work. I’m living with chronic health conditions that affect me every single day. Some mornings I wake up in pain before my feet even touch the floor. Rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia have taught me what it feels like to keep moving when your body wants to stop. Add doctor’s appointments, medications, school, ministry, work, and everyday responsibilities, and some days it ...

Be about your Father’s Business

-
  💜 Becoming Her: Sis, Be About the Father’s Business Sis, at some point you have to ask yourself: Am I busy… or am I about the Father’s business? Because there is a difference. We can be busy working, building, posting, planning, helping everybody else, chasing goals, and checking things off our list—but still neglect what God actually called us to do. And in this season of Becoming Her, I don’t just want to be busy. I want to be obedient. What Did God Tell YOU to Do? One thing I’m learning is that everybody’s assignment isn’t my assignment. Whew, sis. That will free you. You don’t have to compete with her. You don’t have to move because everybody else is moving. You don’t have to start something because you saw somebody else doing it. And you definitely don’t have to explain every move God told you to make. Sometimes we spend so much time looking at what everybody else is doing that we lose focus on what God told us to do. Sis, get back to your assignment. Jesus ...
