hey homegirlsss. God started reminded me that His love for me is so much bigger than my love for Him. that sounds simple, but it’s something that changed the way i see everything. so many of us have grown up in church believing we have to prove our love for God through effort. through serving, striving, and trying to do everything “right.” but what if the gospel was never about how much you love G...

hey homegirls, it’s been a while 🥹 today’s episode is just a bit of a catch up because it's been a HOT minute. but it's also a reminder that when life feels heavy, God is still working. the past few months have been ghettoooo. burnout, busyness, and just feeling pulled in every direction. but through it all, God’s been teaching me about purpose, patience, and obedience in the midst of c...

hey homegirlssss. i have been AWOL but God is faithful. in today’s episode, i wanted to talk about the chrsitians who are overwhelmed, tired, maybe sometimes inconsistent with the word and feeling guilty. ...  basically, all of us at some point. i’ve been in a season where everything has felt CRAZY (hence the absence): wedding planning, work, travelling… and somewhere in the middle of all of that,...

i just got engaged… so why am i talking about our breakup? in this episode, i sit down with my fiancé to share the full story of how we went on a break for 9 months, why we chose to step away, and how God completely restored our relationship in a way only He could. i have received COUNTLESS of messages and comments about this, with people going through similar and unsure of what the future holds....

the homegirls know i have been rambling on about getting engaged but this episode is one you guys have been WAITING FOR. nas is back on the podcast, and we’re breaking down everything - from how he planned the proposal to how i almost ruined the surprise. nas goes into the details of how he knew it was time, the conversations leading up to the engagement, and how we navigated emotional and spiritu...

this might be a hard pill to swallow but THE GOSPEL IS NOT ABOUT YOU. we hear the word gospel all the time. we know that Jesus died for us, we know that we are saved through Him. but do we really know the gospel? in this episode, i reflect on my five-year journey as a christian and how the most transformational thing i’ve learned is that the gospel is not about me. i spent so much time striving to...

i just got engaged, so this may seem like a strange topic to be talking about - but i can promise you it's needed. i've been through a crazy journey of seeking validation through relationships and then experiencing the knowledge that only God can truly fulfill me.  i know so many women are stuck in this cycle of idolatry, so i wanted to delve into this topic more as well as share some of...

this homegirl is a FIANCÉE 🥹💍 this is one of the most surreal moments of my life, and i couldn’t wait to share it with you all.  if you’ve been on this journey with me - from my teenage years, to coming to Christ, to the ups and downs of relationships - you’ve seen how God has MOVED in my life. in this episode, i'm just reflecting on my engagement to Nas, what this moment means to me, and h...

how often do you go to God because you want Him - not because you want something from Him? in this episode, i unpack how we can fall into the trap of treating God like a genie: someone to grant our wishes rather than worship as our holy, sovereign Father. i share my own story of idolising my desires and seeing God as a means to an end - and how that mindset left me spiritually stagnant. but here’s...

losing your fire for God is probably one of the most frustrated and destructive feelings to feel as a beliver. it's something we all struggle with as a believer at some point. but i wanna go into not just that feeling but why chasing that “on fire” feeling can lead to guilt or self-righteousness, and how we can reframe our relationship with God to grow deeper, more sustainable faith. i share...

we are slowly becoming a generation where a “good christian” is about attending church, singing worship songs, and being kind to others. and all of these things are good... but where is the Bible in this? how often are we actually in the word of God? how often do we have quiet time? how often do we make time to study deeply, outside of knowing the well-known verses? in this episode, i go into the...

it’s that time of year again new year, new resolutions, and endless vision boards. but as christians, are we submitting our plans to God? in this episode, i unpack the dangers of claiming “2025 is my year” without first seeking God’s will. we talk about the pride that fuels this mindset, how the enemy deceives us with goals that aren’t in alignment with God, and why true peace and joy can only com...

dating as a christian comes with its challenges, but it’s also one of the most rewarding journeys when christ is truly at the centre. in this episode, nas and i go into what it means to date with purpose, how to honour God in your relationship, and the lessons we’ve learned along the way. we share personal stories about balancing spiritual growth while dating, setting healthy boundaries, and navig...

if you’re frustrated with the men in your life, it’s time to look at your standards... AND your standards of God. because the truth is, if your view of Him is shallow, your expectations for men will be too. what i talk about: ✨ why you can’t expect a man to lead, protect, and honour you if you don’t even know what that looks like in God’s Word ✨ the dangers of settling for “good enough” and why...

so many of us believe in the power of God’s forgiveness but still hold on to shame, guilt, and condemnation. but that's a life of bondage because we can't truly recognise the gravity of Christ’s sacrifice and the freedom we now have in Him. what i talk about: ✨ how unforgiveness of self is a rejection of God’s sovereignty ✨ the difference between conviction and condemnation (and how th...

main character syndrome... we’ve all been there. the world tells us to put ourselves first, chase our truth, and make everything about us . but let’s be real: when we make ourselves the centre of the universe, we’re at war with God. in this episode, i get real about how self-glorification (aka main character syndrome) directly opposes God’s purpose for our lives. i unpack why striving for control,...

faith without relationship? it doesn’t work.  today i'm talking about why true faith is rooted in a deep relationship with God and not in striving for spiritual achievements or trying to “will” ourselves into faith. what i talk about: why faith begins with knowing who God is, not striving to believe harder how our relationship with God transforms our trust in Him the importance of going back...

that thing God called you to do—why haven’t you started it yet?  if you’ve been feeling convicted about putting off what you know He’s asked of you, i get it - but i'm encouraging you to not drown in excuses what i talk about: why we make excuses for not acting on God’s calling how we often prioritise comfort and logic over obedience the reality of surrendering to God’s plans, even when they’...

homegirls... this week i am hurt.  this episode dives into a topic that’s been weighing on my heart and i feel like it would be wrong to ignore: politics. particularly american politics.  the recent election has stirred strong opinions - fine. it's opened people's eyes to their opinions - fine. but what it's also done is that it's caused anger and divide within not just the wor...

so many of us want christian friends, but when we look around, we’re either alone or surrounded by friends who aren't following God. this episode dives into the real reasons behind that, from where we’re spending our time to how open we are to finding and keeping those god-centered friendships. what i talk about: the importance of community in faith and why christian friendships matter how bu...

hey homegirls! in this episode, i’m getting real about something i see a lot in our culture – how easy it is to use God as a way to elevate ourselves, rather than truly seeking Him for who He is.  it’s everywhere, and honestly, i get it. deep down, a lot of us crave recognition, approval, or success, and a lot of the time we bring these desires right into our faith to the point where it's not...

hey homegirls! in this episode, i’m talking about what it really means to live a life with God at the centre – not just during highs but in the everyday moments.  it’s about making Him your lifestyle, above all the noise. here’s what i talk on: keeping God in focus daily – meditating on Him above sin, idols, and worries learning how to enjoy God’s presence even when life feels ordinary shifting fr...

hey homegirls, this episode is a REAL one. i’m getting honest about something that’s been on my heart lately – how discipline, when not rooted in God, can slip into self-righteousness. i delve into my personal journey of rediscovering my purpose, especially in content creation, and the challenges i’ve faced trying to balance my discipline with my faith. here’s what i talk on: the struggle of relyi...

Hey homegirls, I'm baaaack. I wanna first off apologise for not posting this last week - I got back from Portugal early hours of Saturday morning and I was EXHAUSTED. Not to mention, my week was busy in general but I'll fill you in more next week. So here is the episode I meant to upload last week - we'll be back on track from now 💕 But onto the episode... There's so much talk...
