30. 

Today, I’m simply grateful.

Three decades of life.

Three decades of becoming.

And when I look back over the journey, I can see God’s hand in places I didn’t recognize it at the time.

Through every open door.
Every closed door.
Every victory.
Every disappointment.
Every season of waiting.
Every moment I had to start again.

God was there.

There are things I prayed for years ago that I’m living in today. And there are prayers I’m carrying today that I trust will make sense in their appointed time.

“To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.”
Ecclesiastes 3:1

Turning 30 has me thinking differently about time.

Not from a place of fear or feeling behind, but from understanding just how valuable it is.

I don’t need to have everything figured out.

I just need enough light for the next step.

“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”
Psalm 119:105

That scripture means more to me now.

Because God hasn’t always shown me the entire road.

Sometimes He gave me enough light to take one step.

Then another.

Then another.

And somehow, those steps brought me here.

At 30, I’m not asking God to make the road easy.

I’m asking for the wisdom to recognize where He’s leading me, the discipline to prepare for what I’ve prayed for, the courage to walk through the doors He opens, and the humility to remember Who opened them.

I’m walking into this decade more intentional.

More disciplined.

More present.

More protective of my time.

More appreciative of the people I love.

And more committed to becoming the man God created me to be.

There is still work to do.
People to impact.
Stories to tell.
Places to go.
Purpose to fulfill.

And if these first 30 years have taught me anything, it’s that I don’t need to know exactly how the story ends to trust the Author.

“Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it.”
Philippians 1:6

Chapter 30.

I’m grateful for the man I’ve become.

I’m grateful for the man I’m becoming.

And above everything else…

I’m grateful God allowed me to see it.

Here’s to 30. 🥂

To God be the glory.

Disney on the Yard made their way to Bowie States campus, and I had the opportunity to create the vibes in the atmosphere! 🎤✨

Thank you so much to @disneyontheyard for providing these opportunity to HBCU schools. We need people to provide opportunities to these young folks! We can’t do it without the community.

To the 22 visionary women who dared to dream, serve, and create a legacy greater than themselves—thank you. Because of your courage, sacrifice, and commitment, women like me have the privilege of walking in purpose today.

As a first-generation Greek, becoming a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. means more than I can put into words. It is an honor, a responsibility, and a blessing that I will carry with me for a lifetime. This journey has challenged me, strengthened me, and introduced me to a sisterhood that I will forever cherish.

A special thank you to my sisters. Thank you for the laughter, the lessons, the unwavering support, and for making this experience one I will never forget. There is something truly special about crossing alongside women who understand every step of your journey.

Forever grateful for the legacy. Forever committed to the mission. Forever thankful for the sisterhood. ❤️🐘

32| Grace under pressure. Strength in every storm. A gentle reign that will never be forgotten.
