  • Music:The Soul Touch Weapon

    How I Repurposed a Tool of Destruction into an Instrument of Worship ​Music has always been more than just sound to me. Growing up, the Spanish salsa, 90’s soft rock, and Latin freestyle music that played on repeat weren’t just background noise—they became my cleaning anthems. As a teen, my ear for music was huge;… Read more

  • Impact vs Influence

    ​”Influence” Is Just a Distraction from Our Purpose ​We all know what an influencer is. They’re the people with the big followings, the perfectly curated feeds, and the power to get us to buy that new pair of sneakers or try the latest coffee trend. An influencer’s value is often measured in likes, clicks, and… Read more

  • When the Body Remembers:

    Understanding Trauma and Grace ​Hey everyone, and welcome back to God’Sip and Tea, where we sip on truth and talk about life’s real moments. Today, I want to tackle something incredibly personal, something that often goes unseen, unheard, and definitely misunderstood: the body’s response to trauma. And yeah, sometimes, it gets laughed at. ​It’s a… Read more

  • ​Our children. They are a gift from God, aren’t they? And as a mother, I have to confess, the greatest struggle of my life hasn’t been about them—it’s been about me. It has been the relentless, soul-deep work of getting myself right for them. Of actively, fiercely breaking the curses and dismantling the chains that… Read more

  • You know that feeling when you’re all grown up, but your mom still calls to make sure you ate? That’s love, but it’s also a sign that her job’s not quite done. It’s a bit like our relationship with the church. We often think of the church as just a building, but what if she’s… Read more

  • The Placement of the Heart

    In the great, sprawling game of life, we are all first-person players. We navigate the world through our own eyes, making choices and reacting to what comes our way. And while the scenery might be different for each of us, the fundamental “player types” are surprisingly similar. These aren’t defined by looks or background, but… Read more

  • To anyone suffering in the here and now, I have some good news for you: these days will pass. You will look back on this time and say, “What a trial that was!” I know this because I have been there. I was at a point of suicide, with a path that looked gloomy and… Read more

  • For most of my life, I was lost. Not in a metaphorical sense, but literally. I was a runaway, a homeless teen walking the streets, feeling as though I had no direction and no purpose. I was raised in a way that left me confused, a way I didn’t understand. My mom practiced things that… Read more

  • The biggest myth about creating something new is that you can do it from nothing. People often believe they need a blank slate to build something great, a perfect starting point, a clean break from the past. But as a business owner, a writer, and a mental health coach, I’ve learned that’s not where real… Read more

  • Curiosity

    What positive emotion do you feel most often? Curiosity is a powerful and beautiful emotion, especially when viewed through the lens of faith. It’s the feeling that pulls us toward new ideas and deeper understanding. But for me, this emotion was long buried. For years, my world was defined by heartache and loss. The most… Read more
