Dreams I couldn't shake since childhood: - being an elementary teacher (especially to neurodivergent kids) - publishing a children's book - publishing a poetry book I went from teaching my stuffed animals to finishing my first year at my dream school. I teach a class full of neurodivergent children who share the same diagnosis as me. My mother said I would never be a teacher cuz of my public speaking issues. Proved her wrong. I manifested this dream job. My students feel safe and loved. I finished writing my poetry book that I compiled through my ptsd healing journey. Next steps are getting it published. One day it'll be the children's book. Chase your dreams friends. ❤️
@@marajones1828 Wow, this is ineffable and I’m beyond glad that you never gave up on your dreams… Never let anyone stop you even if it’s your mom. Reach for the stars Queen!
Girl, I bought a microphone in 2020 because I’ve always wanted to do UA-cam. I would always set everything up but never record. Fast forward to this year, and I finally had the courage to start, and I'm so happy I did.
It’s not always that you don’t respect yourself. It’s that you don’t truly believe it’s going to work out. When you do your job/work, you KNOW that check is coming, nothing to think about.
@@rubyreduxxNo it doesn’t. They’re making the point that they can EXPECT something (money) out of working where as the same can’t be said for say creating a UA-cam channel. You can make a yt channel but you can’t EXPECT anything out of it
@@rubyreduxx no, it’s not a lack of self respect. This has nothing to do with a corporation. If anything, it’s just lack of belief in the outcome. It’s just a human reaction to understanding something is a given vs something that requires a little more faith and consistency for an uncertain outcome.
@@rubyreduxxGirl, what? Not all of us have a money tree out back to magically pay our bills, buy food, pay rent, etc. Some of us actually have to work to survive out here!!
gotta keep our word to ourselves and respect our positive visions! our subconscious is so powerful. this is a tangent, but recently i've been experiencing some conflict with people & i've also been watching Love & Hip Hop again. I used to watch it a lot a long time ago & recently i've been feeling more confrontational and realized while Love & Hip Hop is not at fault, i'm associating it with conflict and when i'm experiencing conflict in real life, deep down i remember Love & Hip Hop and am reaching into that metaphorical vocabulary to express my feelings. Back to watching peaceful videos. I don't want my brain to auto suggest incorrect stuff. It's not Love & Hip Hop's fault. It's just cuz i've watched that show so much over time. It comes up too quickly in my mind since i'm very familiar with the show and i don't wanna have argumentative stuff as reference in my mind. First off, that was my comfort show, cuz i was addicted to stress since i grew in a household where there was a lot of arguing and intense emotion.
Please listen to Sonya, ladies 🙏🏿. I’m a mom of 2 and in my mid-30s. I decided to have audacity and am now starting my 2nd year of medical school. I had to push back against the excuses and step out on faith. I’m now living my dream. It can happen for you, too. Just trust yourself and keep going no matter what.
Believe her yall. I’m turning 40 in a couple weeks and I STILL can’t shake what I was meant to do. I stopped and switched paths and built another career for the sake of life’s comforts, but don’t do what I did.
I dunno what u planned to do but I refuse to believe that u still can’t do it. Even if it has to be a side hobby or interest. You’re still so young to pursue. All the best!
i’m getting told the same thing at 21 years old. growing up, i never really had the chance to really explore because my parents (african parents 🤣) were also like “you can only be a doctor, nurse, lawyer, or an engineer”. and while they told us this because they want us to have money, i knew by high school that i didn’t want to become a doctor, and then i knew by college that i didn’t want to continue being a nursing major. i loved psychology tho it really fascinated me. i did some research on what careers i could do if i were to be a psych major, and seeing how my own mental health was growing up, i wanted to help others process their feelings. i want to be there for them, listen to them, empathize with them, and help grow to become the best version of themselves. i wanted to be the change i wanted to see because in the mental health therapist realm, there’s not a lot of therapists that look like me. i’ve already considered the time it’s going to take for me to get to that goal, the odd jobs i’d have to do in the mean time to becoming a mental health therapist. i can’t see myself in anything else (and ive tried). i’m so passionate about psychology related content, i notice how excited i get when talking to people, and even notice when people are sharing very vulnerable parts of themselves with me. but my parents have been installing fear that i will not make it, or i won’t make enough money, and it completely strays away w what they want me to do. i want to follow my passion and see where it can take me. and this video (along w other confirmations i’ve been seeing on yt) is another sign that i should keep going. thank you! ❤️
money is not everything, and you will never know if you could make it if you never try. keep going. keep doing what you love. keep being passionate. you are going to be successful. you will make yourself so proud.
Hey I'm Haitian, 22 and on the same path as you. My parents damn near disowned me lol, but your best bet is to not share too much about your career goals with them. Just focus and do research to see if it's the right fit, apply to grad school whenever you're ready and DIP. They will be proud once they see you graduate, but it's best to have peace of mind by not telling them all the details.
I think God has a way of showing people things. I normally keep my goals to myself but this video felt as though I meant to see it. I've been laughed at, looked over, push to the side, etc when it comes to my dreams. Through every job, I kept going back to what made me happy after work but now years later at the ripe age of 27 and being laid off back in May, all I have been thinking and actually working on is my dreams. I've always wanted to be a singer, actress, and designer because its what I am gifted in and I let all those years of people telling me I was foolish to do them but God never told me so that's probably why I kept going. And now, I'm using that audacity that you mentioned. I deserve it, thank you for making this video
I needed this - I tell my self I'll do something and still go back on my word but if my boss says X, best believe I'll have X done by X time. We gotta take our selves more seriously! Thanks for this video!
That commitment and consistency is key. Showing up for yourself relentlessly even when the outside world hasn’t caught on is probably the most humbling part of the experience. Being your own cheerleader and trusting in the vision that God has over your life even if no one else gets it. It builds character, strength, and a ton of self love.
The only issue is….. how do I become a singer/songwriter/performer. That’s the only thing that’s stopping me HOWEVER….. I recently had the thought that social media is a very big factor! If I can grow a brand for myself on social media, then maybe my name can get out and I can go from there. But it’s getting there for sure! I’m trusting that God will lead me towards the right path!!
Hey just remember Jeremiah 29 : 11 and ask God's will for your life, I'm sure that you'll be successfull in whatever God has called you into , be blessed and ask for precise signs from the Lord for your future career, be blessed💖
Wow! I JUST spoke to my bff about this. We so tired of having the sad talks about why we not where we wanna be. I will have respect myself, start trusting myself and have the audacity!
I really loved this video and message. People really are not encouraged enough to follow their dreams and I appreciate stumbling upon your commentary. You've inspired me.
Great video! And yo literally the message we all needed to hear. Many of us lose sight of our purpose because we don’t even have trust in our own dreams.
This video showed up in my recommendations and I honestly think this is a message from God! I have been so afraid to persue what I want since getting to university because of the fear of judgment or just having eyes on me. I have told myself multiple times that fear will not get me anywhere and I really try to step outside of my head and do what I need to do. Your video has really just solidified that I am holding myself back and I need to work towards my dreams and fulfill them. Thank you so much for deciding to make this video!! This has helped me a lot🥺♥️
I swear your video feels like a sign for me so thank you for putting it out. Recently I’ve been toying with the idea of giving more time to my creative endeavors and wanting to see if I can do anything with them because I hate working for someone. I’m just realizing it’s not work I hate, I’m a hard worker, I just hate that my hard work is making someone else money. Right now my main goal is paying off my debts, but I’ve also been prioritizing my mental, physical, and spiritual health and I feel myself being pulled to give more time to that creative streak I put on the back burner. I swear, it feels like God is speaking to me through you trying to tell me to just do it. Thank you. I feel like I have to try….life is too short.
"I feel like, the older you get the more society kinda tells you, 'Give up those dreams.' " This hit me in my heart and I almost wanted to cry. I have always been drawn to singing, music, writing - creative stuff and would love to do that as a career but even I thought I should do something more sound. Perhaps I'll do something in ICT(that's what I'm studying right now) while pursuing my dreams. Either way I've always felt in my heart I'm destined to do something great. Maybe I'm delusional or maybe it actually will happen.
Just subscribed! I love your take on this and I’m currently going through pursuing my dreams as a musician and filmmaker I know one day all the hard work will truly payoff! God’s timing is everything🙏🏾💜
Oh my God you have no idea how much I needed this. Last night I was ready to give in. I was so stressed, scared and overwhelmed. I went on my knees and prayed to God for at least 10 minutes. And here he is, once again, answering my prayers through you in this video. ALL my fears, doubts and questions I had were answered in 14 minutes. God bless you. I won't ever forget the clarity you gave me. Hope you only see success, joy and happiness. Amen.
This video is so beautiful because it’s so true how so many things and people try and steer you away from your dreams yet a lot of people didn’t let that stop them i would love to be an example to not stop following my dreams no matter how long it takes
Best believe I will be coming BACK to this comment section for some positivity in my life. I'm a first-gen academic, only mixed kid in my family, first queer kid and a lot of other things. Aspiring writer, aspiring artist (visual and music), aspiring creative. The only thing that keeps me from stopping is my audacity. Audacity to try, to express, to build, to create, to succeed. So to anyone else who's going through similar things: Keep going. Keep doing your thing. As Kennie JD always says: "Write that screenplay, write that novel!" Cause if [insert name of weirdly successful person] can do it, why shouldn't you atleast try?
Loved this! Very inspirational as a musician myself I’m putting out new songs and videos soon after 3 years! Nothing will stop me it’s my passion I can’t see myself doing anything else where I won’t be miserable…
"Literally whatever you just thought about, thats exactly what you suppose to be going after" not even a min in the video and she clocking tea, im shookkkk 😩
Woww I’m so happy for you! I remember following you and you not having a lot of subscribers and views and your video just popped up today and I was like oh I wonder what she’s doing and just to see your progress and how God has blessed your channel is so inspiring and I’m so happy for you. God definitely is showing that he has a purpose and plan for your platform for such a time as this. You’re inspiring me to keep stepping out on faith… so so happy for you. Congratulations. 🎉 Ya look goodt by the way sis!!! 😍🥳
Thank you so much!! It’s been an interesting ride for sure but God has really shown me through this UA-cam journey that if I do my best he’ll do the rest! & if he did it for me he’s def going to do it for you girl! 🩷🩷🩷
Wow When you said “You don’t trust yourself “ that hit home for me. Because in actually I don’t trust myself to be what I have the potential to be. This stems from years of fear and insecurity. I always thought I was the “dumbest one in the room because of what I was told.
I just happened to click on this video by accident but God knows I needed to hear this message. I’ve been seeing so many signs from Him to follow my passion, as well as support from my family and friends to start singing. I was even asked to be featured on a song which I loved. You are so right, I need to follow my dreams. The examples you gave were so inspiring, especially coming from an aspiring artist myself. Thank you so much for following your heart and putting out this video✨new subscriber for sure 🫶🏾
My dream is to make music and be an inspiration in this world we live in all while breaking generational curses in my family. I dropped my first music video by the grace of God and I know that in order to have the life I desire I have to put in the work. More action less chatting. Thank you so much for this video !!!
The bit about not following through with what you’ve said teaching your body that you can’t be trusted was very true and opened my eyes for sure. Glad the universe put it on my feed x
I have been working hard on my music career writing songs that are inspirational and that have a message. I have been on a long journey rediscovering myself and knowing who I am suppose to be. I have been called by GOD to get my message out to the public. But I have been scared of the devil because he has been trying to hold me back. Next year I will be putting out some of my music to showcase my work. Please pray for the best of me. I am Sandra Jean!
@@sandrajean3502 I am learning how to produce because tbh paying for studio time and a beat from a producer is expensive😭hence why I’m learning to produce my own music. However, I just always feel in the back of my mind that my music doesn’t sound professional enough
It was not an accident that I found this video. Very well put together very clear and concise and a very beautiful message. Thank you so much and God bless you on this journey. Praying much more and more for you and your endeavors.🙏🏾
I don’t know why UA-cam recommended me this video but I’m glad I watched it. I really loved the part where you talked about pulling through for yourself. I don’t really comment but I wanted to give you the engagement. This was a very inspiring and important message. I hop for nothing but the best on your journey 😊
Yoh I’ve been working on my craft for years now and I literally had such a bad mood today because of those who came before and didn’t use their platform the way I would but this is giving me so much hope
Thank you for making this video. I've been trusting God for a change in my life, but I don't think I've built that consistently and respect for myself. It's time for a change, and I'm grateful for this video. God bless 🙌 🙏 ❤
Whew i needed this today cuz I’ve been losing trust in myself since i haven’t been able to show up for myself to create the life i want after my job fired me 4 months ago. I have 3 businesses with two more in the works & it’s been disappointment after disappointment but I’m trying to overcome the depression from all these changes 😭😭
Ma'am! This video really touched me. It was so inspirational and came at the right time. You officially have another subscriber. May blessings continue to rain down upon you
HEYYYYYYY BOOKIE. ANOTHER VIDEO?! I FEEL LIKE THIS IS EARLY CHRISTMAS. Showing up for yourself is so important along with only giving God room to pour into you and not outside voices. Bc at the end of the day its your job to bring out what God puts inside you. You need to not mind anyone telling you that your self respect is pride. There isnt room for God and satan to pour into you, a little yeast makes the whole dough rise. ANYWAYSSSS TYSM FOR ANOTHER VIDEO BOOKIE ❤️❤❤
Heyyyy bookie!!!!!! thank you so much for watching 🩷🩷🩷 & you’re so right it’s up to us to bring out what God put inside us, we can either let our gifts make room for us or live with regret
Holy Shit!! This was the right thing at the right time that I desperately needed to get me out of the year long doom spiral and depression that I’ve been in. I really needed to hear what you said, and it came at the right time. Thank you so much! I’m so happy I randomly scrolled on this video in my timeline.
This is such a beautiful message! Been wanting to start UA-cam for agess but even more so now that I’m getting older and wanting to document a little more. Finally posted my first video last week and I can’t wait to look back on the growth. Thank you for speaking light into people 🫶🏽
This is such an amazing video!!! I am a uni student at the moment and I have been really struggling with coming out of my comfort zone and "having the audacity" . This video has really inspired me SO MUCH!! Thank you so much!
Honest God sent you to my feed today❤I needed to hear this and reassure myself,I've been doubting my capabilities coz of all the noise going on in the world right now..I live in Kenya,if you know you know,there's been protests and all kinds of f shih going on so much so that I became stagnated in what I need to do to get where I want to be😅but now,hearing this,has revitalised me🎉❤thank you N may God bless you abundantly ❤keep using your voice and your platform to inspire❤❤see you at the top girlie❤
This is really good to learn from. I wanted to be a teacher / mangaka growing up. I’m not a teacher, but one thing I do know is that I’m gonna teach others and myself good lessons and bad lessons. Now, I didn’t think my drawings or stories were good enough for UA-cam. My little sister convinced me 4 years ago. I’m a UA-camr content creator with my art out there.
I love your audacity/philosophy/your truth. I will try to incorporate it in my life/philosophy. I look forward to the future of the people who resonate with this video.
This is such a beautiful video. Especially when it comes to Victoria and knowing her background, rooting for her for so long to se her finally start to get the flowers she deserves. That audacity as you put it is so Important and inspiring. Ps you are gorgeous and I love the makeup/ fit.
This is my first time watching any of your videos. You’re amazing, thank you for this message thank God for putting it in you to share 👑💯🥰 right on time.
Thank you for this video! As many have stated, I just happened to click on your video expecting something very different, but what I received was so much more. Thank you for listening to your Spirit and blessing so many of us!
Idk what I was expecting when I clicked on this video, but I needed every bit of it 🙏🏾 thank you so much for sharing 🤍 and thank you for such a timely verse of the day 🕊️
As a 36 year old mom of 6 I just became a full-time content writer for a global insurance firm! I NEVER thought I could completely pivot careers from freelancing at this stage in the game without a Marketing or English degree. Now I'm off to check off some entrepreneurial goals 🙌🏾❤!! You HAVE to want it, work for it and believe in yourself!!
Honestly when it comes to music, it's always been my passion. But similarly to tems, my parents didnt recognise music as a proper profession, and not just my parents but teachers and such as well (and i grew up in germany/ireland). So i always thought music had to be my second dream instead of my first and ultimate dream. Now I'm in uni, hoping to get my degree (just trying to survive), and expecting to start a job that i dont know will make me happy (besides its income). And it doesn't help that i dont know how to put myself out there without feeling like im not doing it right
“The talent doesnt put you center stage its the AUDACITY “
Dreams I couldn't shake since childhood:
- being an elementary teacher (especially to neurodivergent kids)
- publishing a children's book
- publishing a poetry book
I went from teaching my stuffed animals to finishing my first year at my dream school. I teach a class full of neurodivergent children who share the same diagnosis as me. My mother said I would never be a teacher cuz of my public speaking issues. Proved her wrong. I manifested this dream job. My students feel safe and loved.
I finished writing my poetry book that I compiled through my ptsd healing journey. Next steps are getting it published.
One day it'll be the children's book.
Chase your dreams friends. ❤️
This is so beautiful to hear especially as a fellow neurodivergent. Congratulations love, and I pray God continues to show you favor and blessings 💖
I’m so proud of you! This is really inspiring ❤️ I wish you the absolute best ❤️

Oh my God, why is this making me cry... like I feel God in this one, like this is Divine intervention. Thanks for this video/message, big hug/love💖
Just subscribed! I love your take on this and I’m currently going through pursuing my dreams as a musician and filmmaker I know one day all the hard work will truly payoff! God’s timing is everything🙏🏾💜
oh it will 🩷🩷 you got this!
Oh my God you have no idea how much I needed this. Last night I was ready to give in. I was so stressed, scared and overwhelmed. I went on my knees and prayed to God for at least 10 minutes. And here he is, once again, answering my prayers through you in this video. ALL my fears, doubts and questions I had were answered in 14 minutes. God bless you. I won't ever forget the clarity you gave me. Hope you only see success, joy and happiness. Amen.
"BIG VICTORIA".......been one of my 🐐.....frfr.....🙌🏽🙌🏽💪🏽💪🏽🎯🎯🎯🎯💯
This video is so beautiful because it’s so true how so many things and people try and steer you away from your dreams yet a lot of people didn’t let that stop them i would love to be an example to not stop following my dreams no matter how long it takes
You’re Changing lives🙏🏾
Best believe I will be coming BACK to this comment section for some positivity in my life.
I'm a first-gen academic, only mixed kid in my family, first queer kid and a lot of other things.
Aspiring writer, aspiring artist (visual and music), aspiring creative.
The only thing that keeps me from stopping is my audacity. Audacity to try, to express, to build, to create, to succeed.
So to anyone else who's going through similar things:
Keep going. Keep doing your thing. As Kennie JD always says: "Write that screenplay, write that novel!"
Cause if [insert name of weirdly successful person] can do it, why shouldn't you atleast try?
Loved this! Very inspirational as a musician myself I’m putting out new songs and videos soon after 3 years! Nothing will stop me it’s my passion I can’t see myself doing anything else where I won’t be miserable…
❤
You could not disrespectful and stop calling me out. But in all seriousness, a word! Thank you so much for your message.
"Literally whatever you just thought about, thats exactly what you suppose to be going after" not even a min in the video and she clocking tea, im shookkkk 😩
Woww I’m so happy for you! I remember following you and you not having a lot of subscribers and views and your video just popped up today and I was like oh I wonder what she’s doing and just to see your progress and how God has blessed your channel is so inspiring and I’m so happy for you. God definitely is showing that he has a purpose and plan for your platform for such a time as this. You’re inspiring me to keep stepping out on faith… so so happy for you. Congratulations. 🎉 Ya look goodt by the way sis!!! 😍🥳
Thank you so much!! It’s been an interesting ride for sure but God has really shown me through this UA-cam journey that if I do my best he’ll do the rest! & if he did it for me he’s def going to do it for you girl! 🩷🩷🩷
@@sonya.danielle thank you ❤️
Thank you for being obedient. I’m weeping. Needed to hear this.
Wow When you said “You don’t trust yourself “ that hit home for me. Because in actually I don’t trust myself to be what I have the potential to be. This stems from years of fear and insecurity. I always thought I was the “dumbest one in the room because of what I was told.
I just happened to click on this video by accident but God knows I needed to hear this message. I’ve been seeing so many signs from Him to follow my passion, as well as support from my family and friends to start singing. I was even asked to be featured on a song which I loved. You are so right, I need to follow my dreams. The examples you gave were so inspiring, especially coming from an aspiring artist myself. Thank you so much for following your heart and putting out this video✨new subscriber for sure 🫶🏾
My dream is to make music and be an inspiration in this world we live in all while breaking generational curses in my family. I dropped my first music video by the grace of God and I know that in order to have the life I desire I have to put in the work. More action less chatting. Thank you so much for this video !!!
The bit about not following through with what you’ve said teaching your body that you can’t be trusted was very true and opened my eyes for sure. Glad the universe put it on my feed x
I have been working hard on my music career writing songs that are inspirational and that have a message. I have been on a long journey rediscovering myself and knowing who I am suppose to be. I have been called by GOD to get my message out to the public. But I have been scared of the devil because he has been trying to hold me back. Next year I will be putting out some of my music to showcase my work. Please pray for the best of me. I am Sandra Jean!
Go for it !, God's put inside of you some gifts so share with the rest of the world your light, be blessed and remember to ask God for guidance💖
@@marcelineelysabeth7 thank you, I needed to hear that!
I’m in the same boat, I just haven’t put out any music on major platforms because I feel the quality doesn’t sound good enough
@@emmanuellasspace try to find a great producer and trust your judgment. I believe in you, and you have to believe in yourself as well.
@@sandrajean3502 I am learning how to produce because tbh paying for studio time and a beat from a producer is expensive😭hence why I’m learning to produce my own music. However, I just always feel in the back of my mind that my music doesn’t sound professional enough
It was not an accident that I found this video. Very well put together very clear and concise and a very beautiful message. Thank you so much and God bless you on this journey. Praying much more and more for you and your endeavors.🙏🏾
I don’t know why UA-cam recommended me this video but I’m glad I watched it. I really loved the part where you talked about pulling through for yourself. I don’t really comment but I wanted to give you the engagement. This was a very inspiring and important message. I hop for nothing but the best on your journey 😊
This video is golden and full of gems! Wonderful advice! 🌟🙏
Let him use you Miss Girl 🥹
Yoh I’ve been working on my craft for years now and I literally had such a bad mood today because of those who came before and didn’t use their platform the way I would but this is giving me so much hope
One of the best motivational videos I’ve seen, hands down
Thank you for making this video. I've been trusting God for a change in my life, but I don't think I've built that consistently and respect for myself. It's time for a change, and I'm grateful for this video. God bless 🙌 🙏 ❤
this was RIGHT on time, thank you Sonya!
Whew i needed this today cuz I’ve been losing trust in myself since i haven’t been able to show up for myself to create the life i want after my job fired me 4 months ago. I have 3 businesses with two more in the works & it’s been disappointment after disappointment but I’m trying to overcome the depression from all these changes 😭😭
Ma'am! This video really touched me. It was so inspirational and came at the right time. You officially have another subscriber. May blessings continue to rain down upon you
HEYYYYYYY BOOKIE. ANOTHER VIDEO?! I FEEL LIKE THIS IS EARLY CHRISTMAS.
Showing up for yourself is so important along with only giving God room to pour into you and not outside voices. Bc at the end of the day its your job to bring out what God puts inside you. You need to not mind anyone telling you that your self respect is pride. There isnt room for God and satan to pour into you, a little yeast makes the whole dough rise. ANYWAYSSSS TYSM FOR ANOTHER VIDEO BOOKIE ❤️❤❤
Heyyyy bookie!!!!!! thank you so much for watching 🩷🩷🩷 & you’re so right it’s up to us to bring out what God put inside us, we can either let our gifts make room for us or live with regret
This really encouraged me please don’t ever stop. ❤
man why you eatin 😻💕 lovely video
Holy Shit!! This was the right thing at the right time that I desperately needed to get me out of the year long doom spiral and depression that I’ve been in. I really needed to hear what you said, and it came at the right time. Thank you so much! I’m so happy I randomly scrolled on this video in my timeline.
This is such a beautiful message! Been wanting to start UA-cam for agess but even more so now that I’m getting older and wanting to document a little more. Finally posted my first video last week and I can’t wait to look back on the growth. Thank you for speaking light into people 🫶🏽
I needed this video more than you know! This was an amazing watch!
You and this video are anointed. Thank you for the encouraging message 💜
Girlll, I don’t know if it’s something in the water but your VOICE is so powerful. You gotta gift, thanks for sharing it ❤
This is such an amazing video!!!
I am a uni student at the moment and I have been really struggling with coming out of my comfort zone and "having the audacity" . This video has really inspired me SO MUCH!! Thank you so much!
thank you for holding my hand through this 😅 but i've definitely been feeling this way lately, i'm moving different for me.
It was me, girl. This video was a message to me. I needed to hear it. Thank you, and God bless you and everyone here 🙏🏽 ❤️
I absolutely love your content sis,please keep it up ❤
Honest God sent you to my feed today❤I needed to hear this and reassure myself,I've been doubting my capabilities coz of all the noise going on in the world right now..I live in Kenya,if you know you know,there's been protests and all kinds of f shih going on so much so that I became stagnated in what I need to do to get where I want to be😅but now,hearing this,has revitalised me🎉❤thank you N may God bless you abundantly ❤keep using your voice and your platform to inspire❤❤see you at the top girlie❤
This is really good to learn from. I wanted to be a teacher / mangaka growing up. I’m not a teacher, but one thing I do know is that I’m gonna teach others and myself good lessons and bad lessons. Now, I didn’t think my drawings or stories were good enough for UA-cam. My little sister convinced me 4 years ago. I’m a UA-camr content creator with my art out there.
I love your audacity/philosophy/your truth. I will try to incorporate it in my life/philosophy. I look forward to the future of the people who resonate with this video.
This is such a beautiful video. Especially when it comes to Victoria and knowing her background, rooting for her for so long to se her finally start to get the flowers she deserves. That audacity as you put it is so Important and inspiring. Ps you are gorgeous and I love the makeup/ fit.
Not what I was expecting but everything I needed to hear ❤
This is my first time watching any of your videos. You’re amazing, thank you for this message thank God for putting it in you to share 👑💯🥰 right on time.
I needed this reminder and motivation. Thank you so very much.🙏🏽💜
Wow…I clicked on this video not expecting to feel convicted on why I’m not where I want to be. I have to RESPECT myself in order to trust myself!👏🏾
Subscribed; you give me hope for this entire generation
I saw this thumbnail and I thought it was negative. I’m happy it’s not! Thanks for the positive motivation 👏🏾✨
I wanna thank the lord for showing me your video! I needed to hear this!❤️ congratulations on your UA-cam channel too!!🎉
Thank you for this video! As many have stated, I just happened to click on your video expecting something very different, but what I received was so much more. Thank you for listening to your Spirit and blessing so many of us!
This video pushed me closer to trusting my dreams❤
NEEDED THIS CHANNELED MESSAGE SO VERY MUCH!
Thank you
Thank you for this video it encouraged me a lot!!!!
Idk what I was expecting when I clicked on this video, but I needed every bit of it 🙏🏾 thank you so much for sharing 🤍 and thank you for such a timely verse of the day 🕊️
omg this video popped up on my recommended AND wow did I need to hear this! I’m glad you had the audacity to start ur channel💗
As a 36 year old mom of 6 I just became a full-time content writer for a global insurance firm! I NEVER thought I could completely pivot careers from freelancing at this stage in the game without a Marketing or English degree. Now I'm off to check off some entrepreneurial goals 🙌🏾❤!! You HAVE to want it, work for it and believe in yourself!!
This video was well needed! Thank you for listening to your spirit to put it out there❤
This is a very good talk. I'm glad I came across this today
Holy hell, I really needed to see this
Honestly when it comes to music, it's always been my passion. But similarly to tems, my parents didnt recognise music as a proper profession, and not just my parents but teachers and such as well (and i grew up in germany/ireland). So i always thought music had to be my second dream instead of my first and ultimate dream. Now I'm in uni, hoping to get my degree (just trying to survive), and expecting to start a job that i dont know will make me happy (besides its income). And it doesn't help that i dont know how to put myself out there without feeling like im not doing it right
I needed this so freaking much🥺...
Preach baby girl 👏🏾👏🏾✊🏾. Watching with my daughter ❤
you’re so pretty!! looking forward to watchingggg this seems like a good message
