This is one of those messages that I had in my heart for a very long time and it has shaped the way I approach my relationships particularly when it comes to Keeping up with the proverbial Joneses. This is one of those episodes that I never got around to releasing soooooYou may find me referring to dates in May. I just felt that the message was worth releasing albeit 3 months later.

Be blessed lovelies :-)

Guess who is the latest member of the Flirty Thirty Tribe....As I celebrate this new decade, I thought it fitting to release this episode (recorded a whiiiiilllleeee back) simply because this is the new attitude I am hoping will permeate this new decade. No Matter what you go through - just know there  is always a reason to be thankful. Sometimes you just have to look a little harder.

As always - Be blessed lovelies

Since this is the first official episodes post my hibernation- i thought to hit you with some new new. As I was typing this up, the title of this episode was changed. I originally titled this I am not fake - I evolve but I realised the more appropriate word is Dynamic. To be dynamic is to "be characterized by constant change, activity, or progress". You will realise why 'dynamic' was more appropriate as you listen to this episode

As always - Be blessed lovelies

But you have received the “Spirit of full acceptance,” enfolding you into the family of God. And you will never feel orphaned, for as he rises up within us, our spirits join him in saying the words of tender affection, “Abba Father!” Romans 8:15 TPT
