We're not Perfect
-
When looking at these pictures, one could say that we look happy. But in reality, those smiles are just masking our true emotions of what we are actually going through.
-
For me, this summer, I hit rock bottom and had no clue of how I could even get myself out of it. One night I just remember crying and pleading with God to send someone to help me escape. After that night, I was able to feel God pouring love onto me.
-
Flashforward a couple of months, I was happy again for the first time in a long time. The podcast was going well, I was moving into the right direction of becoming the person I had always wanted to be, then it all came crashing down. Then I cried out again, "Why?" After all of that progress here I am back at rock bottom at square one.
-
I do not know why many of us struggle for such a long-time enduring way more than what we have bargained for. But what I have learned is that the suffering we endure is not only going to make us stronger, but also only last but a small moment. Always remember that you are stronger that you can even comprehend and that in due time, you can truly be happy.
-
I do not believe that we have to be grateful for our hard times. But when we change our mindset to be grateful in our circumstances, we will be able to find that happiness.
-
You guys are amazing! Never forget that! ❤️
Love,
Mak

Affirmations

Words are so powerful and I firmly believe that the words we say have an impact on us. We are the makers of our happiness and in order to maximize we have to change our mindsets.

We hope that these things will help everyone in some way. It is okay not to be okay. But we hope that these affirmations help you in some way.

Love, Mak and Syd ❤️

EPISODE 9 Part 1 is LIVE! Please be warned we talk a lot about abuse & mental health stigmas.  So this might trigger some. In today's episode it gets a little bit heavy.   Mental health is so so important.  

We need to talk about it more often, and ask ourselves, How can we help, & who can we help today?  

We LOVE each and every single one of you guys. If you struggle with Mental health that is ok. If you are in therapy, that is completely normal. If you don’t want to get out of bed one day. That is ok.

It’s ok to not be ok.

We LOVE you!

WELCOME to Episode 8!

We are SO sorry we have been a little MIA for the last couple weeks.  In today's episode it gets a little bit heavy.  We talk all about how to stay positive in a negative world, especially what in going on in Ukraine & Russia.  Our prayers, and thoughts are with the people over there.  We have definitely felt very heavy this week as everything has started, but our faith, and lots of prayer has kept us grounded.

WELCOME to Episode 7!

We cannot believe we have seven podcasts out already! HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY! In today's episode we talk a lot about the different kinds of way to LOVE yourself.

"hey you. yes, you. stop being unhappy with yourself, you are perfect, stop wishing you looked like someone else or wishing people liked you as much as they like someone else. stop trying to get attention from those who hurt you. stop hating your body, your face, your personality, your quirks, love them. without those things you wouldn't be you and why would you want to be anyone else? be confident with who you are. smile. it'll draw people in. if anyone hates on you because you are happy with yourself then you stick your middle finger in the air and say screw it. my happiness will not depend on others anymore. I'm happy because I love who I am. I love my flaws. I love my imperfections. they make me me. and "me" is pretty amazing."

We cannot believe we have five podcasts out already! In today's episode we talk a lot about God's Timing. Our lives didn't go as planned, but we truly believe that this is God preparing us for the future. Don't stress when your life goes a different direction. He is preparing a way for & exactly for YOU.

"God is not in a hurry. You are. This is why you are tired, stressed, and anxious. Today I pray that you surrender your timeline in favor of His peace. Trust that what is meant to be yours, will be yours." .co

Hello All! 👋🏽

Syd here!

Mak and I were just talking this morning about how crazy it’s been that we’ve been growing SO much! In fact we talk most days about how crazy this project has grown. we feel so overwhelmed, with the amount of shares, and page likes, downloads on spotify, & apple podcasts, and the positive encouragement that we have recieved.

thank you from the bottom of our hearts. we love each of you.

just a few important reminders:

we are now up on Spotify @ “Joy in the Journey with Makayla Sacolles and Sydney Jenkins”

We have also had some requests to get up onto Apple Podcasts as that is easier for some.

After working long and hard to get that up and and running into some technical difficulties, we are officially on Apple Podcast @ “Joy in the Journey with Makayla Sacolles and Sydney Jenkins”!

i know some of y’all like to watch the videos on YouTube. we have run into some technical difficulties while uploading, due to Episode 2 being longer, we will have that video up as soon as we possibly can. It will most likely be in two parts. Spotify, and Apple Podcasts, will be in one part.

i am also hoping to have Episode 3 go up tomorrow. hoping everything is aligned right. so be watching out for that tomorrow, hopefully! 🤞🏾

again, we sincerely appreciate all of your support, and everything y’all do for us! we cannot wait to keep getting to know y’all and, continue on this journey! we have some awesome stuff coming.

I have been pondering a lot about the journey of life. It has been hard for me to live everyday with a smile on face. But I have learned that it is okay to not have your entire life planned out by 20. I thought that I would have a life plan and but it has completely failed. Does that make me a failure? No, rather we are being placed on another path that is far better than we ever could of planned. Regardless, we are going to be progressing and think that life is great than fall flat on our face. That is okay, it was all part of the plan. The real triumph will come when we choose to get up. We choose to continue to fight everyday of our lives. That is when true joy comes. It is when we are fighting for our lives that we can find that happiness and hope. I pray that regardless of what you are going through, you can find the strength to put a smile on your face to say this, “ it is going to all be okay. I love you all and I hope that you will continue to move forward with faith. Love, Mak❤️

One way to get the most out of life is to look upon it as an adventure. Adventure isn't hanging off a rope on the side of a mountain. Adventure is an attitude we must apply to the day to day obstacles of life. You can't find happiness at the end of your journey if you didn't bring it with you all along. ✨💫
