Fit/Face Of The Day 💃🏾 Happy Sunday Ladies! What's your energy or intention going into June?
Honestly, my May was rough. It challenged me emotionally, mentally, spiritually, and physically. I’m finally starting to see some light at the end of the tunnel, but I know there’s still a lot to unpack.
What kept me going was my faith and remembering that I’ve survived every hard season I’ve ever faced before. I’m stepping into June hopeful for a better second half of the year.
Through it all, God has been faithful in ways I can’t fully put into words yet. I’ve felt loved, supported, and carried like never before.
As I find my footing again, I’m making a conscious effort to prioritize joy and add a little whimsy wherever I can. Today I got dressed up and put on makeup for no reason other than to celebrate myself.
There really is a peace that passes all understanding, and for that I’m grateful.
Wishing you all a warm and peaceful start to June. 💛 Along with a few selfies, I’m sharing some quotes that have helped me feel a little lighter lately.
How are you feeling going into this month? What’s bringing you joy right now? What are you looking forward to?

I am looking for opportunities and taking some risks.

Thanks for the dose of reality and positivity! Very much needed and appreciated ❤️
Im sorry you had a rough May but so glad you're not letting that get you down.
I'm trying to appreciate my (true) loved ones even more right now especially as we’re experiencing some major life changes and hold on to what really matters. And trying to be more spiritual and reflective in my daily life.
Sort out and cherish what really matters.
Thanks for the scriptures too! I would just add Galatians 6:4- you don't need to measure yourself against anyone else

Thank you for your kind words ❤️ They mean a lot. I wanted to share some vulnerability in a safe space, and I'm so glad I did. I love what you said about cherishing your loved ones and holding on to what truly matters, especially during seasons of change. That's such a grounding perspective. And thank you for sharing Galatians 6:4. That's a beautiful and needed reminder. Comparison can steal so much joy, but there's real peace in focusing on our own path and growth. Wishing you all the best through these life changes.

Love to hear it. I always get excited to see new black women creators on YT who focus on fitness. You'll definitely be filling a need. I'm with you on looking for a new job. It's tough out here, but we got this.

I'm fortunate that I'm not unhappy where I am. Just ready to start planning my next career moves.

I officially deleted all of my dating profiles and I’m ready to refocus on the other goals I put on my vision board—for June and beyond.
—Save another $13,000 to hit my $25k savings goal for the year.
—Get my last credit card down to 30 utilization. I’m at 50% now.
—Prepare for my next promotion (I’m eligible in December)
—Book my flight to Rwanda for my 33rd birthday in December
—Stay active in a social and running club I just joined
