“DON’T RUSH…LET THE RUSH COME TO YOU”
As you set your sites on your own personal summit, it’s time to stay present to God’s process. At times you may grow impatient because you are too focused on the outcome. As you wait on God’s Best, I encourage you to shift your mindset so you don’t rush, but let the rush come to you. It’s time to design your destiny, discern what God’ has for you and prepare for his overflow in every area of your life.

“Rock your Crown”
This workshop is to encourage and affirm women of God to come up and own their place in life. The devil has deceived many to get women out of their position and posture to make them self-sabotage their promise and purpose. Let’s go higher and while taking our rightful place !
