The moment I realised not everyone is meant to go where God is taking me..
๐ฑ Growth requires movement โ If you want to step into your purpose, you have to be willing to leave your comfort zone. Not everyone will take that step with you.
๐ช Some people will distance themselves โ Itโs not always personal. Some choose comfort over growth, and your decision to move forward may make them uncomfortable.
๐ God will place you in new spaces โ Youโll find yourself in rooms and opportunities others wonโt enter because theyโre not willing to make the sacrifice.
๐ก Your journey is yours alone โ Not everyone will understand your calling, and thatโs okay. Keep moving forward anyway.
๐ฅ The right people will align with your purpose โ As you grow, youโll attract those who are also willing to step into faith and purpose.
Donโt shrink yourself to fit where youโve outgrown. Trust that where God is leading you is worth the sacrifice. Keep going! You never know who you might inspire along the way. โจ
SUPRISE! SUPRISE! ๐คญโฌ๏ธ
We bought our first house together! ๐กโจ
Can you believe I said yes to a house I've never seen in real life? ๐ that's all because I trusted God to work everything out for myโ and our good. And so He did! Seeing the house weโll soon call home feels so surreal! ๐ฅฐ
Shoutout to my husband for joining me on the voice-over this time, to make this video extra special. If you want to see more of him, then make some noise in the comments ๐
Have you ever visited the UK? And would you ever move to another country for the one you love? ๐คญ๐ Let me hear your thoughts and stories!

I've heard it all: "You're too young," "Youโre stuck now,", "Marriage is a big commitment."
But hereโs the thingโmarriage, especially as a Christian, isnโt something to be afraid of. For me, itโs a blessing and a beautiful part of God's plan. ๐ค
We chose to marry within 1.5 years because, for us, it wasnโt about the length of time, but the strength of our bond.
Waiting until marriage might sound old-fashioned to some, but for us, it was one of the best decisions we made. We wanted our relationship to be built on more than just feelings or physical attraction. We wanted a foundation rooted in faithโa love that honoured God and allowed us to grow emotionally and spiritually together.
The world often says marriage is just a piece of paper.. But God created it to be so much moreโa beautiful promise that shows His love and faithfulness. Marriage isnโt just about the nice wedding day or having someone to fill your loneliness. It's about choosing and honouring each other every day, growing together and keeping Christ at the centre.
Waiting wasnโt always easy, but it was worth it. Thereโs something powerful about knowing your relationship was built on trust, patience, and love that lastsโnot just instant gratification.
If youโre unsure about love or marriage, I want to encourage you: Godโs timing is always perfect. Yes, it takes (self) work, and there will be challenges, but the rewards are beautiful. Donโt let other peopleโs doubts define your story. And don't settle for less than His best! Trust God, and when the right person comes, youโll know. Heโll guide you every step of the way!

Social media shows the highlights โ the smiles and the wins. But what people donโt see is the weight you might carry behind the scenes. The parts only Jesus truly sees.
Running my salon business was something I truly loved, but it wasnโt always as effortless as it seemed. There were times I felt the weight of having to show up and meet expectations. On top of that, I was navigating a long-distance relationship โwhich is tough when your only connection is mostly through a screen.
Then I had to plan a wedding in 2 months. My husband couldnโt be there for viewings or final decisions, so I carried the weight of making it all happen.
And that wasnโt even the end of it. I was still taking care of clients, carrying the secret of moving away, packing up my entire life, and figuring out how to end my business in a way that honoured everything Iโd built. On top of all that, my body fell out a few times which caused me to pause a few times from doing physical work.
It was a lot. I felt like I was this ๐ค๐ฝ close to burning out. But GOD.
He became my calm in the chaos, my strength when I had none left. In the moments when I couldnโt see a way forward, His peace grounded me. He reminded me that I didnโt have to carry it all โ because He was carrying me.
And maybe thatโs what you need to hear today. Life gets overwhelming. The weight feels impossible. But you donโt have to do it alone.
Give it to Him. Trust Him with it all โ the mess, the pressure, the uncertainty. His peace isnโt just nice words; itโs real, steady, and available right now. Let Him be your calm in the chaos. He did it for me, and I know Heโll do it for you too.
The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.
๐ Exodus 14:14
