It’s been seven months of unemployment, and I’m exhausted in ways I can’t always name. Exhausted from hoping, applying, waiting, and from waking up every day to face the same uncertainty. Everyone keeps encouraging me to go outside. “Take a walk,” they say. “It’ll make you feel better. Clear your head.” But how do I…

This year, my birthday felt like any other day. No grand celebration, no big surprises, just me, in my house, doing my best to be grateful. I turned 34 in a season of unemployment, so my mind was elsewhere. Instead of thinking about cake or plans, I was thinking about applications, interviews, and waiting, waiting…

I’ve never appreciated living in my apartment more than I have over the past five months. The last time I was unemployed and waiting for a job breakthrough, I loathed my living situation. That apartment was tiny. The kitchen felt like a corridor, the environment was noisy and dusty, and the bathroom, combined with the…

April was a hard month. I struggled deeply with waiting on God. It wasn’t the kind of waiting where you sit quietly and patiently, but the kind that feels like you’re sinking while begging for something to hold onto. I slipped often.

I’ve struggled with my body image for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I always felt different, uncomfortable in my own skin, and unsure of where I fit in. For years, I believed that something was wrong with me because I didn’t look the way society expected me to or how the other…

I grew up going to church thanks to my mum’s strong influence. She made sure we were always there, and although I knew about God, I didn’t have a personal relationship with Him. Church was something I did because I was told to, not because I truly sought Him out for myself. Looking back, I…

It’s hard to believe it’s already been a year since I got my first car. What started as a distant dream has now become a part of my everyday life, and I feel incredibly grateful as I reflect on how everything came together. A lot has changed since I first started working, and my journey…

As I step into 33, I want to pause and reflect on all that has unfolded. This past year has been filled with confusion, doubt, and disruption. Yet, through it all, I have seen God’s hand at work in my life. He plucked me out of a job I had idolized and placed me in…
