39 Years Of Becoming Well
Today, March 25th, I welcome in my 39th year! I am filled with joy and gratitude. I really like this Adrianne. She’s my favorite.
Here’s to the final year of my 30s. I’m walking in power, joy, softness, strength, and freedom. Let’s go, 39!
Here are ten things that I know for sure:
God don’t play about me. I am constantly in awe of the way God covers and keeps me. My life is proof that divine favor is real. God keeps blowing my mind, and I’m beyond excited for the new thing God is doing in me right now. Whew! Watch this glow-up.
Love is a woman’s whole existence. I am love. I’m here to give love, receive love, be love. I breathe, and love flows in and out of me. It’s my superpower.
I am responsible for my own happiness. Joy doesn’t just happen—I have to choose it on purpose. Every single day, I’m learning to be intentional about protecting, creating, and prioritizing my peace.
If it don’t make dollars, it don’t make sense. Period. Being a good steward of my resources is one of the most godly things I can do for myself and my girls. Mommy is out here making good cents and sense!
Family is everything. The family I was born into, and the beautiful one I’ve created—blood and chosen. Knowing who is truly for you is sacred. Keep those people close.
Motherhood is the best thing I’ve ever done. Its my favorite part of my life. It is rich, deep, sacred—and so damn delicious. But whew, it’s easy to get lost in it. What I’ve learned? The homies won’t love themselves the way I’ve loved them—they’ll love themselves the way I’ve loved myself. That truth is fueling me to show up differently, fully, and fiercely. Three little princesses are watching this queen.
Being a lifelong learner keeps catapulting me forward. There’s still so much to discover—about the world, about myself, about everything in between. I’m committed to being a reader, a student, and a listener. Learning keeps me curious, keeps me growing, keeps me young and alive. Every lesson is a new level unlocked. I’m leveling up.
My physical, mental, and emotional health is my true wealth. This becomes more important with every year. I’m unapologetic about my well-being. I will not let anyone make me sick, stressed, or spiritually depleted. I’m out here protecting my peace like it’s my pension.
Having fun keeps me alive. Joy is resistance. Laughter is medicine. And dancing like nobody’s watching? That’s church.
“This little light of mine… I’m gonna let it shine!” Yesterday Belle told me I was pretty. She’s right. I am so damn beautiful. And not just pretty-for-a-mom beautiful. Not just when-I-get-dressed-up beautiful. I’m divine-light-shining, soul-deep, radiantly me beautiful. And my beauty matters—it brings light into this world.
