As the saying goes, if you want to go fast go alone, and if you want to go far go together. I believe a lot of time we forget the importance of strategic partnerships, and people get intoxicated with the idea of being 'self made' but; the truth of the matter is, there is no... Continue Reading →
In the past week or so I've come to realise that there is a great thing about actively looking for the good in your day. I realised that, when I did my 30 days of Positivity challenge a few months ago, I consistently had better days and a better mood than I do now and... Continue Reading →
Sho! Friends, if I tell you the past month has been crazy, you will not believe me. If you'd told me at the beginning of this year that this is the year that I'll be doing a 3-day dry fast - I would have told you, nah fam! That's not in my plans. But ladies... Continue Reading →
There's something I've been noticing lately; multiple things actually, but this particular thing keeps peeking out at me under the pile of other things to be noticed. And it's this... the worship of mammon. It's there, it's subtle and it's looking like for the most part a lot of us have been part of this... Continue Reading →

In the earlier post, we learnt that fear (the emotion) is the worst part of it all and that the reality of the thing we 'fear' is very rarely that bad. We don't need to be afraid because what we're afraid of is already under our feet - no matter what it is. Why? Because... Continue Reading →
In the past month, I travelled to three countries as part of my sabbatical away from work. Through my travels, and time spent in the Word of God, God dropped a few thoughts in my heart which I will try my best to share in the next few blog posts coming up/to be posted. Joshua... Continue Reading →
Friends, I want you to know... there is power in truth. The Bible lets us know that we will know the truth and the truth will set us free. There are many truths out there in the world: The truth of the Gospel, the truth of Jesus, the truths of life and relationship amongst many... Continue Reading →
