I’m All In

January 24, 2022 ~ heyujas ~ Leave a comment

As a twenty-something-year-old, I question myself more than I ever did when I was little. As hard as I try to be all in with every aspect of my life, it's easy for my mind to get infiltrated by doubt and fear. It is then that I find one foot all in and the other … Continue reading I’m All In

Let’s Admit It

March 1, 2021 ~ heyujas ~ Leave a comment

Let’s admit it. The person we’re hardest on and expect the most from is ourselves. Why? Because we know better than anyone else what we’re capable of. We sit with our thoughts every single day, and they don’t go away. If we believe we aren’t capable, nothing anyone says to us is going to matter. … Continue reading Let’s Admit It

It’s Not Just About You

June 1, 2020June 2, 2020 ~ heyujas ~ Leave a comment

To be honest with my fellow readers, I didn’t want to post about this. As a black woman, I grew up with a clear indication of the history that came before me. And it’s not something that was taught to me in school because as many others can vouch, black history isn’t taught in a … Continue reading It’s Not Just About You

Because Of His Love

May 13, 2019 ~ heyujas ~ Leave a comment

We’ve been conditioned our entire lives to please others. We go to school to get a degree so that we can stand out among employers. If we don’t have as good credentials as the next person, our chances of getting our desired job is stifled. And even once we get in a job position, we … Continue reading Because Of His Love

Will You Trust Him?!

July 2, 2018January 20, 2019 ~ heyujas ~ Leave a comment

I’ve learned that right when you’re about to come out of your wilderness, that’s when the devil attacks you the most. He does this because he knows that once you come out of your wilderness, you will be closer to your destiny.The devil doesn’t want you to get to your God-given destiny because he is … Continue reading Will You Trust Him?!

A Willingness To Accept

May 31, 2018January 20, 2019 ~ heyujas ~ Leave a comment

I don’t like being inactive when I’m facing a troubling situation. In fact, I’ve always associated inactivity in undesirable circumstances with giving up. But the truth of the matter is that I want to be able to handle my problems on my own. Being in a world where you have to constantly climb up the … Continue reading A Willingness To Accept

It’s Okay Not To Be Okay

September 28, 2017January 21, 2019 ~ heyujas ~ Leave a comment

It's just one of those days When the world seems big And my life seems small And there's nothing at all I feel like I'm going to fall  It's just one of those days When the sky is blue And my world feels grey But everyone thinks that I'm okay But I'm not okay It's … Continue reading It’s Okay Not To Be Okay

How To Stay Productive

September 7, 2017September 8, 2017 ~ heyujas ~ 3 Comments

The other day I did a massive closet clear out. My closet wasn't in the worst shape, but it also wasn't in the best — because it just wasn't functional. Everything was all over the place, and there really wasn't any rhyme or reason to where things were. Though after I spent numerous hours sorting, organizing, … Continue reading How To Stay Productive

Take A Chill Pill

July 22, 2017July 22, 2017 ~ heyujas ~ Leave a comment

I wanted to have this incredible blog post and video out today for all you amazing viewers to partake in, but I have to take a chill pill. I easily obsess over everything creative that I do to make it the best possible.  And frankly, it's stressing me out. I can't allow the things that … Continue reading Take A Chill Pill

You Can…

June 2, 2017January 21, 2019 ~ heyujas ~ 2 Comments

Sometimes I don't know how to feel. My mind is telling me one thing, but my spirit is telling me another. I push myself to be optimistic, but pessimism lingers. It's only a little bit longer, I know God, but what if that little bit longer isn't what I want? What if the suffering was … Continue reading You Can…

Merry Christmas from our quirky little family! 🎄👩🏾‍🤝‍👨🏽🐽🐕
We Bought A House & Got A Puppy?! 🏡🐕 I still can’t believe it! Life has sure been eventful, and I love it! Thank you, honey, for living this wacky 🤪 life with me. I love you soooooo much! 🤗😚☺️
Hubby, you make my life sweeter, funnier and more fulfilled than I ever could’ve imagined. God created a masterpiece that is you on this day, and I am eternally grateful for it! I love you I love you I love you! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!🤗🥳🤗🥳🤗🥳 #itsyourbirthday
Babe 🥰, to call you my own has been the greatest gift I have been given in this life. Selfless. Compassionate. Noble. These are just a few things
Summertime Camera Roll 🎥☀️🍉☺️ #summervibes #summer2022
I did it! 🥳 The first draft of my second novel is complete! Wow! I started this YA Contemporary novel on June 28th, 2021, and it’s now fully drafted on May 28th, 2022 (exactly 11 months since then). I didn’t plan that, but that’s so incredible considering the years it took me to write my first book. While my first book is my baby and will always have a special place in my heart, I am so excited for where my second book will go. So now, here’s where the hard work starts. But like I said when I got to 50,000 words, I want to remember this moment. On this day, my second novel is fully drafted at over 72,000 words, and I couldn’t be more proud of myself for it! If you would like to be a #betareader (someone who can look over my work and give me input), please don’t hesitate to DM me! #writingcommunity #amwriting #ya
