Umm... Note To Self:

Hey Reader, girl don't I have a story for you!

Earlier this year, the Lord told me to leave Instagram and go to YouTube.

Not suggest. Not hint. Told.

Now, when I first sensed this instruction, I honestly thought He was trippin’. Instagram had always been my “home base.” It was the platform that worked for me in entrepreneurship, the one I’d poured years into building. So naturally, I resisted. I even tried to compromise by popping back in here and there, hoping I could cling to what used to work.

But the more I tried to force it, the more I felt the grace lift.
Every time I sat down to create for Instagram, anxiety met me there. The well was running dry—and I knew it.

After weeks of wrestling, I finally obeyed. I turned my attention fully to YouTube and started using Threads as a supporting platform—just as the Lord instructed. And let me tell you…
​Obedience shifted everything.

He told me clearly:
​“Your people are not on Instagram. They’re on YouTube.”​
So, I started creating with intention—uploading one video every two weeks, speaking directly to my assigned woman in her current stage of awareness. My goal? That she would feel seen, heard, and understood.

Sometimes I’d test messages on Threads first. Other times, I’d repurpose what performed well on YouTube. But no matter the direction, I was finally aligned with God’s instruction.

And then He told me it was time to launch The Pushed into Position Academy—but not through Instagram.

So I didn’t.

Instead, I showed the behind-the-scenes journey on Threads and shared updates through this email list. I trusted that if God called me away from a platform, He would make provision on another.

I then decided to host a Brand Processing Session—not a masterclass, not a full-blown workshop, just a simple space for women to sit with their God-given assignment and start processing it. No slides. No teaching. Just guided questions and space to think.

My initial goal? 20 sign-ups.

Today, as I write this email to you, over 40 women have registered.

​

And here’s the kicker:
​I didn’t post a single thing on Instagram to make it happen.​
No carousel. No reel. No story.

Just obedience.

Here’s what I’ve learned:
​When you obey God, you won’t have to strive.​
The anxiety I used to feel when launching something on Instagram? Gone.
The pressure to perform? Lifted.
The “doing the most” to get the minimum? Replaced with doing less and receiving more.

Because obedience has benefits.

God’s way isn’t always logical. It often feels like you're giving something up—but what you gain is so much greater: clarity, peace, provision, and results that don’t come from hustle, but from alignment.

So if you're wrestling with what He’s calling you to do, let this be your confirmation:
​Obey.

He sees what you don’t.
And what feels like a risk to you might just be the strategy that changes everything.

I did less.
And God did more.

That’s the benefit of obedience.

What’s Coming Up

The Pushed into Position Academy officially opens for enrollment on Monday, March 24th — and I couldn’t be more expectant about what God is going to do through it.

This Academy wasn’t built just to help women build brands. It was built to help women step into position—their position in Christ, in the marketplace, and in the world.

Because let’s be honest: too many women are walking around gifted, called, and carrying an assignment, but still feeling stuck, confused, or afraid to move.

This Academy is for the woman ready to go:
​From uncertain to clear.​
​From scattered to structured.​
​From second-guessing to spiritually grounded.​
​From hidden to boldly showing up online.

You will be equipped to build a biblically based brand around your God-given assignment confidently—so you can step into a position of influence online without compromising your position in Christ or the pace of your lifestyle.

This a discipleship-first space for the modern Christian woman who’s ready to mature in Christ and steward her God-given mission with strategy, structure, and spiritual integrity.

🔑 AND—for those of you attending tonight’s Brand Processing Session…​
You’re getting early access to the Academy doors + a special surprise bonus just for being in the room. 🥹 So check your inbox tonight after the session wraps!

This is your season. Your moment. Your time to move from called to positioned. Let’s go.

Things I’m Loving

1. The Holy Spirit. You know how the Holy Spirit always seems to get the short end of the stick out of the whole Godhead? Well, I have been getting to know who the Holy Spirit is and I feel that I have gotten to know him as a friend. I have never had a friend like Him. If you don't know what it is like to have a friend like the Holy Spirit, ask Him to show you what it's like girl because He will do it and blow your mind.
2. The bible study community that I get to lead 🥹 I just love how the Holy Spirit is teaching me how to fan into flames the gift of teaching that He has given me while simultaneously cultivating the fruit of faithfulness in me! CRAZY!
3. My YouTube cadence. I knooooooooow that I can probably produce at least one video a week but the Holy Spirit told me to slow down to bi-weekly video drops. As much as my flesh wants to fight against that, I am realizing that this has been the most peaceful yet impactful season of my business and I owe it all to obeying what the Holy Spirit tells me. Don't let people tell you that you have to do xyz to succeed if the Lord is clearly showing you His way. Like this week's note suggested, there are benefits to obedience. So obey.

Anywho Reader, I hope you enjoyed this week's personal note and I hope to see you tonight during the live brand processing session.

Love you with the love of Christ †

P.S. These newsletters are based on the lessons that the Holy Spirit is actively (or has already been) teaching me. Never take my words as the bible. But I do encourage you to test my words against scripture to prove whether or not they are based in truth. My hope is that these personal notes will give you insight into what it's like to be walking with the Lord, fr fr. I want to share the highs, the lows and the many mistakes that happen in between. I pray that this encourages you to cultivate your relationship with God because truth is, He's been writing you personal notes too.
