As I continue to grow in my relationship with God, the way that I see myself and how I carry myself has evolved. Although I struggle with my own insecurities from time to time, I am no longer that girl that sits in it. I acknowledge the thoughts, explore within myself why I feel that way, and then kill it with what God says about me, for me, and over me. My relationship with God has taught me to never settle and to keep my standards. If I am honest with you, I can tell you that I have yet to meet a guy that is worth me coming out…

Being single can be a satisfying and joyous journey to be in when you have the right people in your corner; develop an intimate and personal relationship with God; take on hobbies; learn how to be financially free; understand who you are; and most importantly, be content with your life no matter the season or circumstance. Singleness is not always a simple and easy walk especially when we live in an age where social media is more prevalent than ever before, television shows and movies portray romance after romance, and the constant questions from friends and/or families. For many, singleness is a choice, but for others, like myself, where God…

To this day, I would sit and find it so surreal that I have never been actively pursued by a guy. I have only been on one date in my entire life and that was earlier this year, never been in a relationship, and never had a boyfriend. It doesn’t make sense. As a 28 year old with an active social life, so many achievements, and things going for her, it has to be the strangest thing especially in a society like today. At times, if I am honest, I find it almost embarrassing to share such a vague resume when the topic of dating and relationships come about. The…

Your singleness is the time to do for you right? To buy that new fragrance or shirt. To travel the world as much as you can. To start something, work on something, or finish something. No matter what you do as a single, money is somehow involved.  This season of my life, in the year 2023, I made a declaration that I want to live financially free. Financial freedom can mean so many different things to many different people. For me personally, it means no debt [excluding student loan debt because let’s face it, that is a very common, well known debt to millions across the country] and budgeting more.…

Can I be honest with you? Like really really honest? There are times when I feel so content in being single. I am able to move to the beat of my own drums. I can go out whenever I want to and come home late without having to check in with anyone. I don’t have to make breakfast, lunch, or dinner if I’m not in the mood; and on the flip side, I can make breakfast, lunch, or dinner for myself when I am in the mood without having to make it for anyone else. If there is something that I want, I can easily buy it because my money…

What I am learning during my time in Canada is that you just have to do it. Whatever it is that you want out of life, you just have to be courageous and bold enough to go after it especially if you are very much single like myself. Don’t live your life waiting for others to come along with you because you may end up disappointed. Let me clear in saying that I am not saying that the people around you will ghost you or leave you hanging. What I am saying is that the people in your life more likely than not have different life schedules than you especially…
