The Royal Journey: Discovering your true crown

The Royal Journey:

Discovering your true crown

I always knew that there was something different about me. Something unique and special.  As a child, my imagination would take me on the most amazing adventures.  I would often draw and write the creative images that would float through my mind.  The result would be thrilling short stories, beautiful sketches, and thought-provoking poetry.  Each time my pencil touched paper, a little bit more of my royal destiny was revealed.

As time progressed, I was met with many of life’s challenges that are common among young women. My carefree creativity was challenged by drama; insecurity; doubt; fear; envy; lust; low self- esteem; body image issues; comparisons; compromise; and a host of other '“destiny blockers.”  I was a lost queen searching for my crown in all the wrong places-men, organizations and associations, cliques, prestigious positions, and religion.

I went through a great winning season where it seemed I was getting everything I wanted. I was so focused on getting things and becoming like those around me, that I began to idolize their lifestyles.  My security was in my jobs, relationships, church activities, and titles. Somewhere along the way, I lost a part of my authenticity.  I was a lost queen, mulling through life.  All the while, God was holding my crown above my head, waiting patiently for me to simply look up.

I was led into a losing season where I had to experience extreme rejection for God to redirect me. I was literally ignoring God just to function in my mess. I had become distracted.   I was stripped of everything I thought I wanted, every possession I thought I should have, every relationship I thought I needed. Without the distraction of all the glitter and gold the world was showing me, I was finally able to look up and become mesmerized by my own crown which had been there in God’s hands all along.

I have gotten back to sketching and writing freely: to exercise my carefree creativity. The result is interactive workshops, creative guides, and events that will help another lost queen.  It is exciting to know that my voice and purpose is attached to so many women and girls; exciting because I can prevent others from falling for life’s glittery traps; exciting because I can encourage the fallen to get up and go back to the throne.

Every woman is born with a crown. This crown represents our true identity...our purpose.  As children, we love our crowns!  We embrace them as we freely explore and allow our expansive imaginations to shape our futures.  Over time, the temptations of the world begin to glitter and glisten so brightly that our crowns become less appealing.  Earthly treasures seem to shine a little bit brighter than the jewels of our destiny.  We take off our crowns and replace them with the world’s version of beauty and success, leaving us unfulfilled and lost.

My royal journey has led me straight to you. We are living in a generation of lost queens who are searching high and low for purpose.  Allow me to help you embrace your regal identity and become the confident and beautiful queen you have been all along!

In this blog, we will walk through the steps that will help you navigate from being a lost queen to uncovering your crown and operating in royalty.
