Bachelorette Guide To...

Singleness can be amazing! I believe single women are some of the most incredible people on the planet. And it’s my heart’s desire to let all the other single bachelorettes out there know how important, valued, and appreciated they are. I know the upcoming holiday season can be challenging for some singles struggling with whatever season they happen to find themselves in, and I want any of ya’ll reading to know...
  • You don’t have to feel lonely this holiday season. You have permission to have fun. 
  • You’re not obligated to see or be around anyone (family or any toxic friends included) who make you feel bad or uncomfortable or stressed.
  • You don’t need to use dating apps to meet guys. Don’t force things. Be pursued. And remember, great dates don’t always make for the best long-term partners or future spouses.  
  • You don’t have to compromise or lower your standards. 
  • You don’t have to engage guys you have zero interest in. 
  • You don’t need to listen to unsolicited advice from meddling family members, friends, or anyone else.
  • You don’t need to feel ashamed, lonely, embarrassed, disappointed, or insecure about your singleness.
You can simply be who you are while you prep for where you’re going. 

This is a time when you can deepen your relationship with God. You can stack and save and spend your money as you please. You can educate yourself. Earn a degree. And then another one if you want to. You can build a great career. You can switch up your career too if you’d like. You can donate some of your time to a good cause. You can start house hunting for your very own bachelorette pad. You can travel and see more of this world. You can focus on yourself completely without interference from a partner or parenting a child (for those of you who don’t have a child or children.) And you can decide what you want to do with your life. Make the most of this time. You are massively blessed. 

I’ve got your back. I’m cheering you on. You matter. And when I refer to single women, I will often use the word “bachelorette” because it sounds fierce. It is fierce. You know ya’ll are fierce too, right? I wish every single woman an overflow of incredible and abundant blessings this holiday season and all the seasons to come. You absolutely deserve it.

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit – Romans 15:13 

P.S. – I’m working on some new content especially for all you bachelorettes. I got ya’ll :)

The Day I Became A Kidney Donor

About a year ago, I had a dream my dad wanted to talk to our family about something serious. I wasn’t sure what he wanted to discuss, but I knew it was something I needed to prepare myself for. Around the time after I had this dream, I remember stopping by my parents place and sensing something was going on that they weren’t telling me. I tried to dismiss what I’d been feeling, but I couldn’t shake it. Something serious was happening. As I returned to my home after visiting them one day, I was in my kitchen washing dishes when a heaviness hit my heart like nothing I’d ever felt before. Something’s wrong with dad. That’s what that dream was about. God, what’s going on? As I continued washing dishes, I started crying and praying. Then in mid-spring, my dad held an unexpected family meeting that would change all our lives forever. He hesitated at first, and as his voice started cracking and he started crying, he said, “Well, I wanted to talk to ya’ll to tell you that I have kidney disea...

I’m Glad I’m Not Married

When I was about five years old, I was sitting in the backseat of my dad’s car when me, him, my older cousin (my aunt’s son), and my aunt (my dad’s sister) caught my aunt’s fiancé with another woman. My dad had been driving my aunt out to run some errands since she didn’t have a driver’s license or a car. When she spotted her man with another woman, she told my dad to pull the car over, got out of the car, and immediately addressed him. She wanted the keys back to her apartment and was done with him. The other woman she caught her fiancé with slapped him when she realized what was happening, and that was that. When my aunt returned to the car, she was clearly and understandably upset, and the ride back to her place was quiet. Although I was too young to fully grasp what was happening at the time, I knew it wasn’t good. And now, at 34 years old, I can’t imagine how much pain she was in. Her wedding had been planned and paid for – and she never made it down the aisle. My aunt was a beaut...

How To Respond To A Nasty Email

Technology has made many people bold, rude, and incredibly messy. Often to the point where some may hide behind words they’ve typed instead of verbally communicating a message they want to convey. Such can be the case when it comes to sending emails. Ah, emails. You know what they are. Electronic messages that can be quickly drafted, sent, and misinterpreted (because you can’t always interpret tones or emotions through them). Which is why it’s key to know how to respond to nasty emails if they should ever come your way – especially in the workplace.       As a working professional, there have been plenty of times when a coworker or superior sent an email my way that was petty, mad disrespectful, and unprofessional. And before I learned how to properly utilize email etiquette, my first instinct would always be to clap back. I just felt the need to respond and to communicate that I wouldn’t allow anyone, no matter who they were, to disrespect me. And while I haven’t taken t...
