Aww I'm happy that the housing situation worked out in your favor and that you got to enjoy time with your parents. That brand trip seemed amazing and I'm glad you got to have that experience. I can totally relate to you about imposter syndrome. It definitely takes constant mindfulness and talks with God to realize that we could possibly belong in certain spaces and are worthy of doing different things. Anyways, I'm still loving this series. It's so necessary.

The mind is powerful. We serve God with our mind. If it's clouded with doubt and fear, we can never fully achieve our goal in this service. I considered fears with and without. I had to acknowledge those things that held me back and work on them one by one. I knew God is greater than all those obstacles. Armed with that, I push forward. That joy and peace that follows sustains me as long as I keep him first.

Keep going 💛 Any idea that comes to mind, anything that you want to share regardless of the amount of views or any outside metrics, please create it. I call it letting yourself play. I loved this video and just the whole concept of this series. I’m kind of in this place where I’m trying to figure out what it is I’m good at because the way I’ve been doing things seems so unbearable now. So, it really does help to see someone else being vulnerable about their journey. Thank you for sharing.

Wowww I love that: Letting yourself play. I’m gonna remember that 💕 Thank you for this comment. I felt so understood while reading it 🥰 I hear you when it comes to not being able to do things how you used to do them. It’s almost as if your mind/body is rebelling and deciding not to do it anymore. I’ve been there so often and it is a vulnerable place to be in and at the same time so worth it. You get to discover yourself or your talent all over again. I am cheering you on sis! Be patient with yourself because you got this. Your vulnerability in this comment alone says a lot. You will make it if you keep sight of who you are. I’m so happy this video has helped. Just know that, after seeing this comment, I’m deciding that it was worth it. Every second of fighting against my doubts of executing this idea was worth it. So thank you 🙏🏾 Good luck, Famiri! You got this 💪🏾

i found out about 4 weeks ago that I had low porosity hair, 4C. I have been researching the what, who, when and how to take better care of it. By far your channel has given me a wealth of information to taking care of it. I understand that water is my hair's best friend. Only recently have I been keeping a hair wash routine every week, using many of DevaCurl products no-poo shampoo, conditioner or leave-in conditioner. Now I am looking for a style product for a wash an go to define my curls.

Thank you so much this is so helpful I have been experiencing breakage for 3 months and was constantly trying to figure out my mistake and I found out that my mistakes is that I didn't consider what my hair porosity is I just knew that I was low porosity after alot of time I figured out breakage cause the cause is using cantu products which are too heavy for low porosity and not using heat to let moisture get in I was lost how to fix it but this video helped me alot. I'm changing my routine to suit my low porosity hair thank you sm
