I live for a living 🌱
📍nyc / where the world takes me

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

God, thank you for everything. Thank you for a slow, restorative year that calmed my nervous system. Thank you for showing me that I can alchemize my pain. Thank you for loving friends and family, and serendipitous moments that healed me to my core. I couldn’t fit everything in here, but these were some of the moments that led me back to my raw, unmasked self.

Life is worth living and I’m going to spend this year reminding myself of that as often as I can. I’m on my own timeline, so I’ll never be behind. I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be. We all are. I’m ready for you 2025.

God, show me how good it can get 🫶🏾✨ by @jaduizm

God, thank you for being everything, everywhere all at once. I’m just so happy to be here—rooted deeply in my spirit. There’s a lot of new energy brewing and I can feel some big changes are on the horizon. Get in besties, we’re ascending ❤️‍🔥✨ taken in Where in the World by @jaduizm

The family on film 🥹❤️ every time we link up, they make me wanna move back to Atlanta lol. I’m so thankful for all the family time I’ve had in these last couple of months. Even when things don’t go as planned, God always gives us what we *need* to carry us through. taken in Harlem, NY by @jaduizm

Two years ago, my tour guide back in Mexico once told me that it was up to me to decide how I let the rain affect my day.

Since then, I’ve made some of my favorite memories doing things outside in the rain. It’s all about perspective. It’s gloomy and I’m sick, and I’m still so incredibly grateful and blessed just to simply be here. by @jaduizm

Happy Black History Month friends 🫶🏾

If you’ve been keeping up with jah, you’ll know that I started 2024 off with a 90 day reset that ends in April on my 30th birthday. We’re 1/3 of the way through and I’m really proud of myself for staying consistent.

Last year wasn’t my best year and I’m fully aware that doing the same things and expecting different results is the definition of insanity. I know I’m not alone in this, so I’ll be sharing more about this on the blog this month. With that being said, it felt imperative that I kick off this new year with very different habits and a new outlook on my life, specifically around the way I view self discipline and showing up for myself.

I’m in a new season of my life right now and it’s teaching me so much about working with what I have, and being okay with God having the ultimate say. Sometimes things have to fall apart in order for something new to take shape, and it’ll blow your high and you may not understand why. And maybe we don’t need to 🤷🏾‍♀️ that’s what I’m telling myself anyways.

I’m in transition and I don’t know where I’m headed and I’m okay with that. My main goal in life is to live for a living and I’m doing exactly that. The journey is about committing to the process and the process is bound to be messy. It’s also where all life’s greatest lessons are learned. I’ve realized that the process deserves a stage just as much as the destination.

My word for 2024 is execution. And execution and perfection simply cannot co-exist. So, this year I am sharing my journey through the process of figuring life out. I am creating because my words and my stories are meaningful and liberating and because, God said so. taken in Standing On God's Word by @jaduizm

⁣For whatever reason Mercury and her microbraids got me in a chokehold these days. So, I decided on a whim to take myself on my first solo concert date to see one of my absolute favorites perform because:⠀
⠀
⠀
1. This was my 3rd attempt and it was finally time. ⠀
⠀
2. Even though life is lifing, I truly don’t have to punish myself for being human. I really wanted to gift this to myself. Particularly because despite life kicking my ass as of late, I still deserve beautiful experiences that make me feel happy and fed.⠀
⠀
I had the best time vibing out being alone-together, freely enjoying myself and really being present in everything. The spontaneity of manifested moments is soothing for the soul. ⠀
⠀
I saw things I imagined 💫⠀

⁣It’s all the joy and self confidence for me 🥹 I’ve committed to my hot girl walks for about 3 months now, and I honestly can’t stress how this sacred time I get to spend with God, the water and myself is single handedly saving my mental health. Like quite literally. ⠀
⠀
My walks and jump rope sessions make me so happy, especially on the days I really don’t want to do it. I was getting lazy, depressed + anxious and I needed physical movement badly. Gym workouts were out of the question, but I could manage to get a good solid walk in. As a New Yorker, I never intentionally went on walks until I lived in Atlanta, and now I’m obsessed. ⠀
⠀
When I started, I was dealing with some skin issues that made me *really* self conscious. I forced myself to take pictures anyway for accountability purposes. I’m happy I did because now I look back and see how much change has taken place in such a short time. ⠀
⠀
I no longer focus on my weight or let my mood control my food. I don’t sulk in the chaos and the shitty moments of life, bc I understand that everything is always working towards my highest good. I spend *a lot* of time alone and I’m not feeling sorry for it anymore. These days I tend to naturally choose spiritually nourishing things, and that’s always been what makes me feel my best. ⠀
⠀
Finding your way back to yourself is always a journey and babyyy, the things you learn along the way is what it’s all about 🫶🏾 ⠀
⠀
P.S. me 🤝🏾 that brown workout set, she’s the most flattering and gets worn v often lol and thankfully bc look at the progress 🥹 taken in In My Bag by @jaduizm

Hey friends, life has been lifing pretty hard lately. I believe that’s the collective energy for most of us this season, but we’re pushing through. Here’s a few amazing moments from my trip to Atlanta that recharged me all the way back up, giving me everything I needed and more 🫶🏾 P.S. in another life, I know me and Eliza Thornberry would be the best of friends. taken in My Happy Place by @jaduizm
