Advice I wish I received!🥹For my young sisters, Advice I wish I received!🥹For my young sisters, in your 20s there’ll be men who are twice your age who tell you you’re brighter, smarter, better, fitter etc than women their ownage. They’ll make it feel flattering at first, but it’s often a trap. 

Many of these men want to mold you into whatever servitude suits their desire. They don’t see you as a person, as a human being with light, potential, and love, they see you as someone to control, to use for their own benefit. Honey they are trying to drain your light !!!

Many of them will lure you with FAKE promises. Don’t fall for it! There’s nothing that they can give you that you can’t give yourself! Some will even try to pull you into situations that are of no concern to a pretty young thing.  Ex-spouses, infidelity, baby mama drama, crime, risky situations, and sometimes even disease. 

They come to kill, steal, and destroy your youth, and once they’ve drained your light, they’ll move on to the next young girl despite themselves being older than a sack of mouldy potatoes. 🥔 

They don’t see you but they see what you can do for them and trust it’s so much more than what you think. Often these kind of men prey on your insecurities and vulnerabilities it’s like they can sniff them a mile away. But PLEASE hold on to yourself! Start a free course, pick up a new hobby - learn a new sport or join a choir just Anythinh to pour back into yourself and learn how beautiful you actually are 🥹💖

You deserve so much more. There are men who will see your potential, honor your heart, and want to build with you. They will respect your life, your dreams, and your light.

I wish someone could have told me this in my twenties but I was vulnerable and it was easy to manipulate me, but you can protect yourself. 

Have the courage to walk away even if he says he loves you, even if he uses your insecurities or honor against you, even if he promises he will change. This is often narcissistic manipulation, control disguised as love.

Your light, your life, and your future are worth guarding. You do not owe anyone your peace or your youth. Choose yourself. You are worth it my beautiful babes 💖💖💖✨. #selflovejourney #chooseyourself
The process is preparing you for the promise. I The process is preparing you for the promise. 

I love the story of Joseph because it reminds me that every trial you go through contributes to the triumph you will experience . God does not allow you to experience pain without turning it into purpose (ask me how I know!)

That means that whatever you’re going through right now, is part of your story to victory. It’s shaping the person you will become when you arrive at your destination. How you behave in this time will determine where you get to and your legacy in that position. 

Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 27 years before he became the first president of South Africa. But his leadership was about unity, forgiveness and peace because he had developed the qualities of greatness during his process. 

What is God developing in you right now? 

Have faith that he has already prepared the way,  he is just preparing YOU!🤗

Your journey is UNIQUE as your fingerprint! 🫆 G Your journey is UNIQUE as your fingerprint! 🫆 God made it specifically just for YOU! There’s no point in even trying to compare your life path with next man or woman. 

Everything you are going through is preparing you for the special purpose that God planned for your life.

It was my first time going to New York this year in September and truthfully I was upset about the whole thing. You know why? Because I FELL IN LOVE WITH NEW YORK ON SIGHT! 

Even before the plane landed, I looked through the window and knew that I would love it! But I was upset because I could have been in New York several times by now. In fact in 2018, the firm I worked with in Canary Wharf London actually offered me a position in their Manhattan office, but I said NO! Why? Coz I was so sure that New York was just like London and I would not like it.🤦🏿‍♀️

I like London - don’t get me wrong, but why would I wanna go somewhere cold and expensive again?! My friends who had been to NY also convinced me that it was just like London - and I believed them. 

Man how wrong they were! How wrong I was to make up my mind from secondhand evidence. New York is not London, New York is New York! 🥁and I should have given it a chance because I LOVE IT! 😍 I’m not even a city girl btw but it’s something about that city… 

So all that to say, WHATS FOR YOU IS FOR YOU. It might not be for anyone else but it could be perfect for you. 

Don’t be like me and base your decisions on what others are doing. Trust that God has a plan for you, even if it looks different to what you thought or what others are doing. 

And remember, whatever happens, that God is good and has GOOD plans for you 💞✨

God wants to prosper you. Do you believe that? Ma God wants to prosper you. Do you believe that?

Many times we go through such hardships and difficulties in life that we struggle to see how God could be present in our trials. 

But the bible says says ‘Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.’ God has planned for our prosperity even in the midst of the enemy Satan creating evil and wreaking havoc on this world. 

His plan is for your ETERNAL prosperity meaning that even the darkness of this world cannot and will not stop the incredible light he has planned for you beyond this earthly time. 

No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.

Are you willing to give God a chance to prosper you? He is waiting to bless all who believe and have faith in him.💖

I heard it’s the season for making your dreams c I heard it’s the season for making your dreams come true?!😃 Tune in darling, the future belongs to YOU!💖

I was honoured to be invited to a reception on the occasion of the 80th Session of the United Nations General Assembly at The Metropolitan Museum of Art @metmuseum in New York. I left feeling inspired and encouraged by the people, stories and city of New York. 

I listened to Aissata Camara address the room and share some of her story. An African woman born in the Republic of Guinea, where as a child she survived female genital mutilation before immigrating to New York at 13years old. What a trying set of challenges to overcome, but she did it, and stood before us as the FIRST African woman to hold the position of New York city commissioner for International Affairs. 

One person’s dream has the potential to bring change and hope to a whole community! Just ONE person having the courage to dream something that might even seem impossible to others can change everything. 

When you choose to believe in your dream and have faith that God placed you here for a purpose, you do something that changes the trajectory of not only your life but the life of your family, friends, community and the world! 

Sometimes we are afraid to dream because you think your dreams might not come true or you’ll fail. But what I learned in New York is that when you dare to have the courage to follow your dreams, regardless of whether you succeed or not, it gives others HOPE. 

And hope is what keeps the world going. 

So what are you believing for today? What dream do you need to revisit again? What’s the purpose you’re believing God has placed in your heart? Now is the time, now is YOUR time 💖

Though your beginning was small, your latter days Though your beginning was small, your latter days will be VERY great - Job 8:7 

This verse is not just for the poor in wealth or possessions, because it says that YOUR future will be so prosperous that your beginning will seem humble! 

Whether you started with nothing to your name and no one on your side, or you started as a prince with royal blood and a castle for your crib - GOD says that your latter end will greatly INCREASE! 

For Job it was a double  restoration of his health, his wealth, his posterity, his status, his honour, but above all his FAITH in God. 

When you go through the dark valley YET you hold on to God, even when nobody can see him in your situation, it gives you something that no-one can take away from you - UNSHAKEABLE FAITH! 

Nothing is more powerful in securing your future than believing God is FOR YOU, he is WITH YOU and he will ALWAYS work things out for your good! He created you for good and if you are not experiencing good right now, please believe that what’s coming for you is better than what’s been.

Your future is bright and beautiful! 🥰💖

God specialises in turning situations around!🙌🏿 Last September was one of the hardest seasons of my life as I finally faced and disclosed the abuse I had experienced in my childhood. THIS September I was invited to the 80th United Nations General Assembly in New York, New York!!!🗽😭

There is NOTHING that is impossible for God! 

Whatever hardship you’re experiencing right now, be assured that God has not left you. 
He is close to the broken-hearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit ❤️‍🩹

A man named Job in the bible lost almost everything he had, but he chose to trust God during the most difficult time of his life. And at the end of his trials, he received DOUBLE what he had lost. 

Trust God through your season right now and know that just like Job - your latter will be greater than your beginning. That means your best days are still ahead of you! 

God can bless you in ways that are bigger and better than anyone EVER imagined, even right now he is working for your good! You never know where you might end up in the next year, month or even hour. Hold on and have faith in God because there is nothing He will not spare for you his beloved baby 🥹💕💖💖💖
