There are seasons in life when you are reminded that strength rarely comes from standing alone. It rises from the people who surround you, the ones who hold space for your growth, your calling, and your humanity. My journey has taught me that a strong village is not defined by sameness. It thrives because of its beautiful diversity. Every person brings a different gift, a different lens, and a different light. I have been blessed with a village that reflects every part of my

One day you wake up and realize that someone you once loved, trusted, and spoke highly of has been speaking differently about you. It stings.
