“Be the “Summer Friday” in a Room Full of “Per My Last Email”
~Anonymous
Hello, Sassy family! While enjoying, Dove Chocolate, one of my favorite chocolate candy brands, I came across this quote inside the wrapper and it inspired me so much that I had to share it with you. I’m sure many of you can relate: whenever I walk into a room, I make it a point to show up as my true, unique self. In a world filled with stiff professionalism and impersonal interactions, it can be easy to feel like you don’t blend in.
But as someone who tends to be more quiet and an observer, fashion has always been my way of expressing the creative, fun, and bold sides of my personality. I hope this message reminds you to embrace your own light—especially in those moments when darkness seems to surround you, and others may not be open to receiving it.
Never underestimate the power of your presence. Whether through your voice, your hairstyle, makeup, or the colors and style of your outfit, you can brighten any space. It’s taken me a lifetime to learn this, but I’m realizing that it’s never too late to dance to the beat of your own drum.
No matter where you are, when you come from a place of positivity and good intentions, you have the power to shift the energy of any room—even in the midst of tension, impersonal interactions, or toxic vibes. So go ahead—share your light with the world!
Be the light, live fearlessly! Let your courage shine brightly and inspire those around you.
“God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day”.
~Psalms 46:5 NIV

Let it serve as a reminder that with God’s presence, you are resilient and capable of overcoming any obstacles and challenges that life may present. His help is always near, even in your toughest moments. To maintain his presence, we must connect with him through prayer, meditate on his word, and participate in worship. He will empower you to become the woman He designed you to be—joyful, confident, walking boldly in your purpose, inspiring, and transforming the world through every person you encounter.
“The Lord says, I will rescue those who love me. I will protect those who trust in my name.
When they call on me, I will answer; I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them.”

Lately, I’ve been reminding myself that God fights for those who love and trust Him with all their heart. Even when we can’t see it, He is working behind the scenes to bring us deliverance, peace, and restoration.
Hello Sassy Squad! In a world where so many try to blend in, keep choosing to stand out and be authentically you. Don’t let the pressure to conform shape who you are. Let your unique character and personality shine brightly. Your style and glam only enhance the beauty that already radiates from within. Embrace a lifestyle of elegance.
“Yet what we suffer now is nothing compared to the glory he will reveal to us later.”

Hello, family! I came across this scripture today and wanted to share it with you. I hope it encourages you to hold on and keep your focus on God, no matter what challenges or hardships you’re facing. Life has really been life-ing, but we must stay strong and trust that God has is in control. On the other side of the valley, there is abundance and restoration waiting for you.
In His timing, the purpose for all of the pain and suffering you have endured will be revealed.

“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside of you. “
-Maya Angelou
Hello, my Sassy family! I came across this quote today that I had to share with you. It resonates with me because I kept my true self hidden and bottled inside me for many years. Throughout my childhood and into adulthood, the fear of rejection has often silenced my voice.
I remember feeling weird and socially awkward because I was so shy and quiet. I never felt like I fit in and compared myself to people around me. My only way to express my thoughts and emotions was to write in my journal. Keeping a journal has truly empowered me to recognize my own unique story and voice.
Who you are is interconnected with your story and voice. I now realize that God was writing my story while building my character to share it with others for His glory. I am fearlessly embracing and expressing my true self with confidence and ease, and I hope that you will be inspired to do the same. The world is waiting to hear your story. You hold the power to share it in a way that only you can.
Hello family! I used to believe that one’s purpose was their livelihood and passion. But as I started pursuing my purpose in my thirties, I discovered that it meant so much more. It is linked to my identity and calling which gave my life a deeper meaning. Not only does it provide a sense of self, but it serves others and honors God.
“For we are his workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.”
Ephesians 2:10 NKJV
I remember praying many times, asking Him to reveal my purpose and it seemed like my prayer wasn’t answered. I began to feel overwhelmed, thinking that He had no purpose for me because I was shy, quiet, and socially awkward. I have come to realize that every season of my life has been preparation for my purpose.
He genuinely has our best interests at heart, and we need to trust the process and the plan to help us achieve our destiny. Sometimes the process might seem challenging or uncertain, but having faith in the plan and the person behind it can make a big difference. This brings me to the message that I would like to share with you all on how to pursue your purpose.
The first step for me was to commit to living a life that pleases God and allow Him to guide my steps on my purpose journey. Committing to a purpose-driven life isn’t easy. It is filled with both challenges and growth. You must decide to leave the old you behind, patterns of thinking, and life habits, and embrace the person he has called you to be. He will prepare you with the character and wisdom necessary to fulfill your purpose at the right time.
“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”
Romans 12:2 NKJV
Next, you must align your life with your purpose. My purpose was revealed the more time I spent with God through prayer and meditating on His word. When I decided to commit my life to Him, he began to connect the dots of my past and present to my purpose. He is waiting for you to surrender your will and say yes to walking in your purpose.
“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.”
Ephesians 2:10 NKJV
In addition, you must let go of fear. I must admit that when God revealed my purpose to me, I was fearful and in denial that I was the person called to fulfill it. It involved using the one thing that I avoided the most, which was my voice. At times I still feel that I’m unworthy of the purpose and plan that God has for my life, but I’m learning to silence the noise of my negative thoughts. I am reminded that His grace is sufficient in my weakness and that my purpose is much bigger than me.
“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control.”
2 Timothy 1:7 NKJV
Last, if you’ve ever felt discouraged about your purpose, don’t be afraid because you were created specifically for it. This scripture encourages me to keep walking in my calling when I get discouraged and I hope that you are too.
If you’ve ever felt discouraged about your purpose, remember that you were created specifically for it. This scripture inspires me to stay true to my calling even in challenging times, and I hope it encourages you too. May you stay motivated and steadfast in the pursuit of your unique purpose.
“Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.”
Philippians 1:6 NKJV
All you must do is say YES to your purpose, and He will do the rest.
“Elegance is the only beauty that never fades.”
~Audrey Hepburn
Hi Sassy Squad! I found a quote that truly resonated with me and wanted to share it with you. The key takeaway is that elegance is both timeless and unforgettable.
Elegance is the art of graceful behavior paired with a unique style that exudes confidence and poise. Your inner beauty is reflected in how you present yourself to the world, leaving a lasting impression on everyone you meet.
In a world of look-alikes and unrealistic beauty standards, stay true to yourself. Embrace every flaw and quirk you have. Remember, you were meant to stand out and shine, demonstrating to others what positive influence and authenticity look like.
“The true beauty of a woman is reflected in her soul.”
~Audrey Hepburn
Hello Sassy Squad! I came across this quote today and just had to share it with you. How many of you have heard the saying “beauty is only skin deep”? I must admit that I never truly understood the deeper meaning of this saying until I was in my thirties. Looking back, I remember comparing myself to others and feeling like I was weird and unattractive because I didn’t fit into the world’s standards of beauty. I was tall and skinny, with almond-shaped eyes and a crooked smile.
Now I understand that being unique was only a part of my beauty. The true essence of beauty is in how you interact with others and present yourself to the world. It’s about being unapologetically authentic, even when societal norms are pressuring you. I’ve realized that how we take care of ourselves mentally, physically, and emotionally is reflected in the way we show up in the world.
You should be loved in the same way you love others, as happiness comes from within and shines outward. Embracing your genuine beauty and revealing your true self can have a great impact in the world around you. Are you ready to embrace your true beauty and make a difference with me today?
“For God hath not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind.”
2 Timothy 1:7 KJV
Hello family! This scripture has been placed on my heart to share with someone who may be letting fear hold them back from achieving the dreams that God has placed in their heart or living a life of peace and freedom that He intended for them to live. He desires us to live fearlessly , be our best selves, and embrace abundance and beauty of life.
Even in our weakest moments, God’s love and the Holy Spirit empower us to wholeheartedly follow His ways and teachings. Trusting in Him enables us to live without fear, as He has given us the power, love, and a sound mind to overcome it. By choosing faith over fear, we can boldly live as our authentic selves. Who’s ready to embrace faith over fear with me today?
Sassy. Spirit. Savvy
