“What most don’t realize is that God wants for you what you truly desire for yourself. God does not want to punish you or see you miserable. God wants you to be your best & come into alignment with all that’s meant for you by letting go of what’s not. God’s will is YOUR will.”

“Stop allowing people to take advantage of your energy & getting mad later when you’re drained. Stop allowing people to occupy space in your life who aren’t serving your highest self. Love yourself enough to close the door on anyone who isn’t contributing to your growth.”

“Don’t come into my life thinking you can complete me, or fulfill me, or love me better than I can. Don’t come into my life needing to be needed.”

“Self love is the root of change & it manifests as discipline. Until you prioritize self-love, you’ll continue engaging in self-sabotaging behaviors. Discipline helps you make choices that align with your aspirations & forgo immediate pleasure in exchange for long-term happiness.”
