May 1, 2017.


Just a few months prior to this date, I was plagued by anxiety and fear . The fear of falling behind.  The fear of not measuring up. The fear of letting those who I loved down. The fear of what others would think of me. The fear of not living for what mattered. The fear of failing. 

 I thought pushing harder would be the answer. I mean I just needed to accomplish more right? But more hustle can’t heal inner emptiness. I was empty.


So I quit. I know probably not the best thing to do. But I was so tired of getting knocked down by life, that I just started backing down. So I did nothing. Ever been there?


I soon found myself just existing in my own life. I felt as though I was on a stationary bike. Yea, I was doing a lot of movement, but I wasn’t making any progress.  I thought my life was falling apart. I just knew that there had to be more to life than this. More to life than the daily grind. More to life than waking up , going to work, eating, sleeping and paying my bills on time. I knew that there was more on the inside of me. I did not just want to exist, but I wanted to LIVE.

So on May 1, 2017 , I decided to take the first steps toward living free from my fears and started sharing my story on my website . Now anyone who knows me, knows that I am an EXTREMELY private person. So being vulnerable and letting people see my insecurities was a HUGE step for me. I was scared to let people in, but I did it anyway. 

To be honest it did not even matter if anyone read my blog or watched my videos. What mattered to me was that I could rewrite my story . When I let go of all of my fears, something amazing happened. From underneath the  broken pieces  of fear and insecurities emerged a woman who was FREE.


FREE from my own insecurities. FREE from what I others thought I “should” be doing. Free from the pressure to have my life figured out. FREE from being defined by what I did and not who I am. FREE from the boxes I was never created to fit in. FREE to from fear. FREE to be the woman God created me to be.

May 1, 2017 was the day I became FREE.

On the anniversary of my #FreedomDay I found myself crying at my desk at work. I was crying because I was amazed at how quickly my life shifted when I said no to fear and yes to the purpose that God had for me.

I thought no one was going to read my blog or watch my videos. Not only have people visited my website, but hundreds of people have purchased and read my book.  My life is literally unrecognizable. 

But, it all started with a yes. 

I told you this story not so could praise me, but so you could think about how this applies to your life. There is MORE on the inside of you. When are you going to say yes to your life? 

Maybe God is calling you to write a book, share your voice, start a business etc. but you have been crippled by your fears. Just start friend! 

Just start MOVING! Trust me, everything that you need will meet you on the journey. 

Could today be your #FREEDOMDAY ?

I sure do hope so! 

Respond to this blog and let me know one thing that you have been trying to do, but fear has stopped you.
