Speaker 3: to say accident, but it was truly God ordained. And yeah,
Speaker 3: I love God, I love people, I love CLO.
Speaker 2: That's just me. I'm just me.

Speaker 2: So amen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, y'all, thank you so much, sister. Y'all, I'm serious.
Speaker 1: She really came from North Carolina and stayed over an
Speaker 1: extra day to be with me, so I don't take
Speaker 1: that lightly. I'm so honored that you're here. And y'all,
Speaker 1: we're gonna go hang into this topic. So again we're
Speaker 1: talking about insecurities. Today, we're talking about just just being
Speaker 1: insecure and what that looks like. And so I want
Speaker 1: to define the word before we really jump off into it.
Speaker 1: But the New Oxford American Dictionary says that insecure means
Speaker 1: not confident or assured, uncertain, and anxious. And let me
Speaker 1: tell y'all something like, I can remember a time where baby.
Speaker 1: I was like, I was the definition of insecurity.
Speaker 2: It's me.
Speaker 1: I'm her. Just look by insecure and it's my whole picture.
Speaker 1: So I just want to talk about, you know, what
Speaker 1: that looks like, because I know it looks different for
Speaker 1: different people, and so I know what it looks like
Speaker 1: for me and what it looked like in the past
Speaker 1: for me. So you know, we're just gonna kind of
Speaker 1: story swap, but for starters, I want to know, was
Speaker 1: there ever a time in your life where you just
Speaker 1: totally like lacked confidence and how did that look for
Speaker 1: you and how did you navigate through the uncertainties?
Speaker 2: Okay we about to get really real.
Speaker 3: Okay, So my whole life, I was so insecure of myself.
Speaker 3: Like if you look at me now, you're like, oh,
Speaker 3: this girl, she's so sure of herself and so confidence girl.
Speaker 2: I went a period up until three years ago. Two
Speaker 2: three years ago.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think it took me walking through that
Speaker 3: phase with going through cyberbullying. I went through cyberbility back
Speaker 3: at twenty two. So but up until then, I was
Speaker 3: a person that was insecure who I was. I hid
Speaker 3: behind the big clothes, I hid behind I was like
Speaker 3: a person in the background.
Speaker 2: I was like, I didn't want to be seen or
Speaker 2: anything like that.
Speaker 3: I was insecure who I was because I was looking
Speaker 3: at that hour appearance and I was not looking at
Speaker 3: who Olivia was. Olivia was until Jesus had to sit
Speaker 3: me down and say, look, you are fifthly and wonderfully
Speaker 3: made in my sight. And when I made you, I
Speaker 3: made you in my image. So God had to like
Speaker 3: really just have like a come to Jesus meeting with
Speaker 3: me seriously, and look, I know y'all were audio only,
Speaker 3: so y'all don't get to see, but let me tell
Speaker 3: y'all something like, and y'all will see her on the fire.
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure y'all have seen her on the fly.
Speaker 2: But now this is.
Speaker 1: A beautiful one. Man.
Speaker 2: Let me tell y'all something.
Speaker 1: This is a beautiful seriously says you are one of
Speaker 1: the most beautiful women that I have ever met in
Speaker 1: my life. That's both inside and out. This is a
Speaker 1: beautiful woman, y'all. And you said something that you know,
Speaker 1: I really just kind of want to put a in
Speaker 1: this like parents and people in general. You mentioned that
Speaker 1: you went through cyber bullying, yes, within the past couple
Speaker 1: of years, within the last year within the last year, y'all.
Speaker 1: Let me tell y'all something. At what point do we
Speaker 1: teach we got First of all, you need to teach
Speaker 1: your children about cyber bullying. But I want to talk
Speaker 1: about how we as adults we participant in cyber we participant.
Speaker 1: Do you know we'll look at the child and say, oh,
Speaker 1: you don't do that, you don't talk about people, you
Speaker 1: don't make fun of people. But then we as adults,
Speaker 1: and I'll even take it a step further. Some of
Speaker 1: the save people, those of us who say that we
Speaker 1: love Jesus and that we're saved, you know. And I'm
Speaker 1: I'm one of those people. Like I am a very
Speaker 1: transparent person. I tell people all the time, like I
Speaker 1: am I have never claimed perfection. I'm probably one of
Speaker 1: the most flawed human beings in the world. I have
Speaker 1: laughed at things that I should not have laughed at.
Speaker 1: I have participated in things that I should not have
Speaker 1: participated in. But you know, that's just one of those
Speaker 1: things that's really I'm very very sensitive about that a
Speaker 1: person tearing them down. I just you know that it
Speaker 1: hurts my feelings. It hurts my feelings, and I just
Speaker 1: wanted to take a moment to say that, you know,
Speaker 1: let this episode and what we disclosed and what we
Speaker 1: talk about, like, let this be our reminder to you know,
Speaker 1: be mindful of the things that on social media, because
Speaker 1: social media is a demon of its own, you know,
Speaker 1: like it's just this whole new world where it's crazy.
Speaker 2: It's crazy.
Speaker 3: And like when I went through that cybability, it took
Speaker 3: me back to my high school days when I was
Speaker 3: actually like bullied for how I look. I'm not going
Speaker 3: to get emotions today. I feel it coming because it
Speaker 3: took me back to a place and I was just like,
Speaker 3: how dare you try to bully me? And you're in
Speaker 3: the same predicament as I am. But I realized that
Speaker 3: people use social media to hide behind they can use
Speaker 3: it to hide it. It's like like, okay, well you're
Speaker 3: not gonna say that to my self my face, but sis,
Speaker 3: it took me back to a.
Speaker 2: Place I was just like, oh my god, here I
Speaker 2: am again.
Speaker 3: But I was so grateful that I had people in
Speaker 3: my circle to uplift me and to you know, say no,
Speaker 3: you're not going to go back to that place.
Speaker 2: You're not the same person.
Speaker 3: And then I had to like, you know, get like
Speaker 3: a batbone and say like, you're not gonna come for me,
Speaker 3: even though I have people in my life you're not
Speaker 3: talking about, like Peters that would like.
Speaker 1: Go in like me, got it, okay.
Speaker 3: It's just like God was like, no, I need for
Speaker 3: you to stand back, and I was just like okay, Jesus,
Speaker 3: and I was like God, I said, these people don't
Speaker 3: even know me. I said, why they just tear me down.
Speaker 3: And God had to remind me like I was in
Speaker 3: the midst and they still did me the same way.
Speaker 3: So I had to like let God vindicate me, and
Speaker 3: he really did.
Speaker 1: So that's beautiful. And I'm telling you, I know I'm
Speaker 1: probably going to say it a million times in this episode,
Speaker 1: but you are so beautiful.
Speaker 2: You really are.
Speaker 1: You really are. And so one of the things that
Speaker 1: I'm learning and I have learned, is that the enemy
Speaker 1: will try to attack your mind. Yeah yeah, and the
Speaker 1: enemy will try to play on your own insecurities, like
Speaker 1: you could be feeling a way and I remember times
Speaker 1: in my life where really nobody was saying anything, but
Speaker 1: I felt a way kind of already about myself, and
Speaker 1: so nobody was saying anything at the moment. But because
Speaker 1: the enemy was already playing on my mind. When something
Speaker 1: was said, it magnify, I mean, like it just blew
Speaker 1: it out of proportion, and I'm just like, oh my god.
Speaker 1: And so you know, if the enemy can get in
Speaker 1: our mind and he can convince us or something, then
Speaker 1: that's kind of how he wins. But the moment you
Speaker 1: get up and you start to fight back, like one something, no,
Speaker 1: you're not gonna bully you know what I'm saying. And
Speaker 1: then half the time, liby, what he be telling us
Speaker 1: don't even be the truth.
Speaker 3: You the festival preach about that. Yesterday he talked about
Speaker 3: the sketch about like the being the father of lies.
Speaker 1: So you like, and I miss because I've been out
Speaker 1: of time to run all over. But seriously, though, a
Speaker 1: lot of the stuff that he feeds up, because again,
Speaker 1: like I look at you, and I see the prettiest.
Speaker 2: One I've ever seen.
Speaker 1: But I can only imagine some of the things that
Speaker 1: has been said by people and by the by the enemy.
Speaker 1: And of course you know, we know he uses people,
Speaker 1: so by him and his little minions, that's what I
Speaker 1: call him, to try to tear you down and make
Speaker 1: me feel the way, when in fact it really.
Speaker 2: Is all lies because you are one.
Speaker 1: Of the most beautiful people.
Speaker 2: You know, kind you.
Speaker 1: Really really are like and you know, we say things
Speaker 1: all the time to uplift each other, but you know
Speaker 1: it's true, Like this is me coming from the most
Speaker 1: genuine place I could find in my heart. Like I'm
Speaker 1: not just saying it, I am. You know, I'm saying
Speaker 1: it because that's how I see you, Like, I really
Speaker 1: think that. So to think that, you know, people are
Speaker 1: out here saying the opposite, like you said, when they
Speaker 1: don't know you, you know what I'm saying. They don't
Speaker 1: know your heart, they don't know how you are, you know,
Speaker 1: and even if which you're you don't fit this ball.
Speaker 1: But I've also seen people who maybe were not the
Speaker 1: most physically attractive, but their heart was beautiful, and guess
Speaker 1: what it made because they had a glow of God
Speaker 1: about them because of who they were on the inside.
Speaker 1: You know, their soul was sweet and it was beautiful,
Speaker 1: and it made them more physically appealing that you know
Speaker 1: what they would be to just the regular natural spiritual.
Speaker 1: So it's like, you know, we just gotta we have
Speaker 1: to be more mindful about this whole cyber bullying deal.
Speaker 1: It's it's crazy, but you did say one thing. A
Speaker 1: lot of people hide behind that whole social media. They
Speaker 1: hide behind it.
Speaker 2: They don't like themselves the truth. That's what I found out.
Speaker 1: They don't like themselves. But I want to like, you know,
Speaker 1: and that's why we have these conversations, you know. Like
Speaker 1: I said, coffee with Corney is a I always wanted it,
Speaker 1: and I always wanted to be a safe space where
Speaker 1: we talk about stuff and I want people to acknowledge,
Speaker 1: Like I hope that somebody's listening who was a cyber
Speaker 1: bully And I want them to say, hold on, this
Speaker 1: is what I want to be like this, and I
Speaker 1: want them to look in the mirror to say, you
Speaker 1: know what, I'm doing that because I don't like something
Speaker 1: about it, and this is a space where we can
Speaker 1: change that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, today, we can fix it.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Let's talk about what it
Speaker 1: is that you don't like about yourself, you know, as
Speaker 1: that would cause you to last shout or try to
Speaker 1: tear somebody else.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like, we can really fix it if we try.
Speaker 2: That's the part. If we try.
Speaker 1: If we try, if you want to fix it, it
Speaker 1: can definitely be fixed. So you know, even with all
Speaker 1: the cyber bullying, Like what did that look like for
Speaker 1: you in terms of like how do how did you
Speaker 1: you know, navigate through it all while maintaining your sanity
Speaker 1: Like cause that to me that sounds like a lot
Speaker 1: like when people are picking on you, you don't even
Speaker 1: know these people. It's like I would probably have been
Speaker 1: in a corner somewhere.
Speaker 3: Like I really did like retreat a little bit to
Speaker 3: like a shell, and like I had, like I said,
Speaker 3: like I told you before, like Peter's they would fight
Speaker 3: for me. But I had to like gather myself together
Speaker 3: and like really pray and just really reflect back on like, Okay,
Speaker 3: this is who God made you to be, Liby, Like
Speaker 3: don't don't go back into that for myself.
Speaker 2: Like I bought you, I always did not go back
Speaker 2: to how you used to be. So there's like a
Speaker 2: lot of prayer, coordiny and just really just remember who
Speaker 2: I am.
Speaker 3: So yeah, and I think the more that people try
Speaker 3: to bully me, I think the more that God was
Speaker 3: like can be confidence like look you're gonna shine through
Speaker 3: yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: And you're shining, like you're shining. And what did it
Speaker 1: look like in terms of I know, you said you
Speaker 1: kind of retreated a little bit. But you know, one
Speaker 1: of the things that I that I dealt with during
Speaker 1: my moments of insecurity is having to still function and
Speaker 1: play every day and play like I'm okay in the
Speaker 1: midst of really my heart yeah inside, So like, did
Speaker 1: you ever feel like you were having the pain and
Speaker 1: smile on your face?
Speaker 2: I did? I did. I did.
Speaker 3: I felt like I still had to. But I think
Speaker 3: that I was like, Okay, Libby, you still got their courage,
Speaker 3: you still have to do this. But I was still like,
Speaker 3: but I was encourage of people. I was like, excuse me,
Speaker 3: I was being the first partaker of whatever I posted.
Speaker 2: Is like yes, And it's always like that, whatever I post,
Speaker 2: I've always the first first. That's how I feel. I'm
Speaker 2: always the first time a lot of times.
Speaker 1: When God will give me something, yeah, it hits me first,
Speaker 1: home first, and then other people are saying, oh my god, girl,
Speaker 1: that was for me, and I'd be wanting to say
Speaker 1: so bad, No, you really don't know that really for me.
Speaker 1: But I'm glad that it helped you. I'm glad it
Speaker 1: helped somebody else, but it was really for me.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think it's also good, like they have a safe
Speaker 3: space with people, but you could just like be yourself
Speaker 3: and just like this is what I'm going through. This
Speaker 3: is like like let me just like let it out
Speaker 3: and then like go back it's okay.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So yeah, And one thing that I'm learning, like I
Speaker 1: have just you know, in my in the most recent years,
Speaker 1: I've really tried to be a transparent person, and I've
Speaker 1: tried to share like my heart and what was going
Speaker 1: on and things that I was going through. But one
Speaker 1: thing that I've learned, probably here recently, is that sometimes
Speaker 1: transparency can bite you. It can bite you a little bit, yes,
Speaker 1: because sometimes we are transparent within the enemy nose, we're
Speaker 1: being transparent, and inside of transparency is vulnerability. And so
Speaker 1: you're trying to be transparent because you're trying to help
Speaker 1: other people, but at the same time, it's like the enemy.
Speaker 2: Will play on your vulnerability.
Speaker 1: So you know, for me, even past, some of my
Speaker 1: insecurities were in places where I feel like I'm more secure.
Speaker 1: Sometimes those little seeds will still, you know and try
Speaker 1: to like knock me off my seat. And you know,
Speaker 1: that's kind of been difficult for me to navigate because
Speaker 1: the feeling of insecurity. It's really I felt a lot
Speaker 1: of things in my life, but insecurity, like that's one
Speaker 1: of the worst feelings that anybody could ever feel. In
Speaker 1: my opinion, Yeah, you're unsure, you don't feel confident in Yeah,
Speaker 1: what you're doing. Like it's just like I don't know,
Speaker 1: and I don't like the unknown.
Speaker 3: I hate but that's what I think when faith has
Speaker 3: to kick Yeah, and I just want to just pick
Speaker 3: it back. What you was just about like being transparent,
Speaker 3: Like with the book, when I say I was transparent,
Speaker 3: I was just like, Lord, why have I shared all
Speaker 3: of this with everybody? Because, like you see, being like
Speaker 3: you put yourself out there. I was so vulnerable and
Speaker 3: I was just like what I said, I shared with y'all, Oh,
Speaker 3: share with y'all so much, and I just had to
Speaker 3: like place it in the blood of Jesus, not y'all
Speaker 3: to be y'all holy than that, but I had.
Speaker 2: To like place it under the blood.
Speaker 3: So it's like, because when you get that vulnerable space,
Speaker 3: like whatever something is said to you, it could just
Speaker 3: it might take you back it's how you used to be,
Speaker 3: or put you in another place that you may not
Speaker 3: cap ounce back.
Speaker 2: Heavy.
Speaker 1: Yes, you know what. This is the first time I'm
Speaker 1: ever sharing this, So y'all get a little exclusive clip
Speaker 1: because I'm having a conversation with my sister.
Speaker 2: But I'm actually writing a book. Yes I am.
Speaker 1: Yes, I'm writing a book and it's a memoir. Okay,
Speaker 1: it's about my life. And when I tell you that,
Speaker 1: thing gets heavy, so I know exactly what you mean.
Speaker 1: It gets heavy and I have to walk away sometimes
Speaker 1: I can't wait.
Speaker 2: Yes, lord, I have to walk away because it takes
Speaker 2: me back.
Speaker 1: You when you're writing like that and you're sharing in
Speaker 1: that space of transparency and gonna building, it takes you
Speaker 1: back to write. But what I will say is this,
Speaker 1: writing my story has been one of the most liberating
Speaker 1: things I have ever done. It has it's bringing me
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say it brought It's still right now bringing
Speaker 1: healing to me in places that I never realized I
Speaker 1: was still wounded and I wasn't really healed. So I
Speaker 1: get it, girl, I get it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you have to go life for being heel Yes, yeah, yeah, yes, yes, so.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's been a journey and it's taken me
Speaker 1: a while because, like I said, you hit these certain
Speaker 1: portions you're like this is this is heavy and I
Speaker 1: can't I don't want to look at it right like,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't want to. I don't want to
Speaker 1: relive this right now. But you have to because it's
Speaker 1: a part of the story.
Speaker 2: Like you just don't know who's on the other side. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 2: so who's on the other side of your story exactly?
Speaker 1: So that that's what keeps me writing, That's what keeps
Speaker 1: me sharing because you just never know you know who
Speaker 1: needs And that's what God told me when he initially
Speaker 1: told me to start writing. It was.
Speaker 2: Four years ago.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was about four years ago, and he told me,
Speaker 1: you're gonna write it, You're gonna tell it. And I'm like,
Speaker 1: I don't want to tell it. He said, I know
Speaker 1: you don't want to tell it. I want you to
Speaker 1: tell it. Yes, anyway, back to the subject, I just
Speaker 1: had to insert that because I know exactly how you
Speaker 1: feel in writing, like you just it's it's that moment
Speaker 1: of wow, like this is this is my life and
Speaker 1: this is what happened. Then you have to go back
Speaker 1: to that place and it's scary too, It's really scary.
Speaker 2: Do I really want to share this? Okay? You feel
Speaker 2: like you're like reliving it. You don't want to. You
Speaker 2: don't want to don't want to it.
Speaker 1: You don't want to relive those moments, you know, And
Speaker 1: then that's a good moment too though, you know that
Speaker 1: you you can reflect, Yeah, you can think on a
Speaker 1: good time. Yes, you know that helps too when you
Speaker 1: think about the good. But I think probably one of
Speaker 1: the biggest things for me is just realizing coming back
Speaker 1: to the reality that.
Speaker 2: I survived that part. I'm still here, that I didn't die.
Speaker 1: So, you know, as scary as it is, you know,
Speaker 1: God sends that reassuring like, hey, you're writing the story.
Speaker 1: Nobody else is writing my book. I'm writing my own story.
Speaker 1: I'm writing my story. Yeah, it's not a biography, it's
Speaker 1: like an autobiography. I get to write it. I get
Speaker 1: to tell y'all what happened to me and nobody else.
Speaker 1: So it's like, you know, that's the part that just
Speaker 1: really I guess strengthens me. Sometimes it re encourages me
Speaker 1: to keep going. But yeah, so back to the whole
Speaker 1: you know insecurit piece, like what what do you say
Speaker 1: to people who are dealing with feelings of insecurity even now?
Speaker 1: And you know, I want to make a point to
Speaker 1: say that insecurities isn't always about the outer appearance. Insecurities
Speaker 1: can be you know, internal, like I know, for me,
Speaker 1: one of the biggest things. And I'm being transparent like
Speaker 1: I always am, y'all, y'all know me. I'm gonna hid
Speaker 1: nothing from nobody. What you see is what you get
Speaker 1: with me.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: One of the recently, one of the things that I've
Speaker 1: personally struggled with as far as insecurities is my my
Speaker 1: role with what I do at church.
Speaker 2: Ain't that crazy? Love, because I went through something. Keep talking,
Speaker 2: Ain't that crazy?
Speaker 1: And so I say all the time, like I work
Speaker 1: at a law firm. I don't know if you knew that.
Speaker 1: I've been there for seven years now. I teach college.
Speaker 1: I've been doing that for three years now, and I'm
Speaker 1: very secure with both of those. I'm secure. I know
Speaker 1: how to teach statistics because that's what I went to
Speaker 1: school for. I know how to teach research methods because
Speaker 1: that's what I went to school for. I know how
Speaker 1: to teach somebody how to write and do research. And
Speaker 1: I know how to teach criminology because that's what my
Speaker 1: degree is in. I know exactly what to do at
Speaker 1: that law firm, because I've been doing it for seven
Speaker 1: years and I've I've made myself. You know, I study people,
Speaker 1: I studied the herney that I work with. I studied,
Speaker 1: you know, just what I needed to do and how
Speaker 1: I needed to do it. And I'm mastered, and so
Speaker 1: I'm secure in those areas. I am outreach, you know,
Speaker 1: I am outreach. I know I have a heart for
Speaker 1: blessing people. However, like as far as like managing or
Speaker 1: you know, just being the face.
Speaker 2: Of that, yeah, that's scary. That's scary to me.
Speaker 1: And I found myself in this place when even Pastor
Speaker 1: had asked me to speak at his one of the events,
Speaker 1: and I was like, speak to.
Speaker 2: Him about what what I'm supposed to say.
Speaker 1: And so I struggled for a while with just I
Speaker 1: don't know, feeling like uncertainty, like you know, and so
Speaker 1: that that piece of insecurity for me wasn't necessary, It
Speaker 1: wasn't physical, you know, it had nothing to do with
Speaker 1: my appearance, but just you know, internally I was struggling
Speaker 1: with insecurity, just feeling like, to be honest, that I
Speaker 1: wasn't good enough, that I didn't deserve to be in
Speaker 1: that space because I just I don't even know how
Speaker 1: I ended up here, you know, I just I did
Speaker 1: what I always did, which was helping people and you know,
Speaker 1: trying to But I didn't feel like I deserved to
Speaker 1: be in that space because it's like I'm not like
Speaker 1: the next person, or I'm like, oh God, I can't
Speaker 1: talk like this person, or I can't you know, I
Speaker 1: don't have the words like this person. I don't have
Speaker 1: the vocabulary like this person. And finally God was like,
Speaker 1: cut it out. Yeah, you got what I gave you,
Speaker 1: You got what I gave you.
Speaker 2: Just use what you got.
Speaker 1: Don't try to be like her, don't try to be
Speaker 1: like him, don't try to be like this one. Don't
Speaker 1: try to, you know, make yourself into something you're not.
Speaker 1: One of the best things about you, Courtney is that
Speaker 1: what you see is what you get. You're just you
Speaker 1: take that and use it. And so that's ultimately what
Speaker 1: I ended up having to do, and I did it.
Speaker 1: But it's just like you know that insecurity, Yes it is.
Speaker 3: It is. Yeah, Like when you were just talking, my
Speaker 3: mind went back to something I just oh, steady walking
Speaker 3: out of it where you talked about like being insecure,
Speaker 3: who you are and what God has called you to do.
Speaker 2: Like I just went through that. This is twenty three
Speaker 2: twenty one.
Speaker 3: We went through some things like you know, ministreet wise
Speaker 3: and what have you. And I found myself with the
Speaker 3: new people coming into my life. They make sure I
Speaker 3: get into my life to help me be better. But
Speaker 3: the way it was done like it threw me off, like,
Speaker 3: oh but I thought I was doing what I was
Speaker 3: supposed to do, so it made me feel like I
Speaker 3: was insecure.
Speaker 2: It look call it upbut my life it's secure. And
Speaker 2: making sure that I lined up with what a vision
Speaker 2: and what have you? And I felt insecured by these
Speaker 2: new people that were coming in here.
Speaker 3: I'm just like, oh, so I guess I'm not good enough,
Speaker 3: like seriously, and so I had to like.
Speaker 2: Build my confidence back up and who I was in
Speaker 2: the call upon my life. So I get it.
Speaker 3: And it's just like, well, maybe I'm not good enough,
Speaker 3: maybe this is not what I was supposed to do,
Speaker 3: but we know who you are and we know what
Speaker 3: God has caused you to do. You cannot allow anybody
Speaker 3: or anything to, you know, lock you off your feet,
Speaker 3: because you know who you are.
Speaker 2: You know who you are and let's not.
Speaker 3: Be a secure like you're called upon your life being
Speaker 3: secure and who you are in the Keydom of God.
Speaker 2: Just be a secure period. And I just got back
Speaker 2: to that place, maybe like six months or so ago. Wow.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm you know, and I'm journeying, and I
Speaker 1: one thing about it is and I just love God.
Speaker 1: I thank God. He's such a He's a strategic Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's he's a brilliant guy, and he knows just how
Speaker 1: to put things together and how to make things flow.
Speaker 1: And I'm so thankful that he doesn't put more on
Speaker 1: us than we can bear. You know, at one time
Speaker 1: we say that all the time, but like I really
Speaker 1: experienced it, he doesn't put more on you than you
Speaker 1: can bear. And what I mean by that is, you know,
Speaker 1: I got to a place of security, but then I
Speaker 1: just dealt with some insecurities. But it wasn't like I
Speaker 1: was just insecure overall. So while I'm very secure, you know,
Speaker 1: he's navigating me through these little pieces of insecurity and
Speaker 1: I'm not dealing with it all that all that once,
Speaker 1: because if I didn't know who I was as a person, Oh,
Speaker 1: it's no way I would have crumbled like I would
Speaker 1: have just crumbled up under the pressure. But because I
Speaker 1: know who I am, you know, I'm still trying to
Speaker 1: figure out the who I am in Jesus part. I'm
Speaker 1: still walking through there. But I'm getting there. I think
Speaker 1: half of that is just because you know, where I
Speaker 1: where I come from, women didn't really have a role,
Speaker 1: and so, you know, in my mind and in my heart,
Speaker 1: it's just like I can only go so far. So far,
Speaker 1: I feel like there's a limit on me, and I
Speaker 1: feel like, I, you know, if I feel like I'm
Speaker 1: getting too close to that limit, I feel like, no,
Speaker 1: let me back up. Because it was embedded in me
Speaker 1: that a woman just supposed to sit down and be
Speaker 1: quiet and this she told and that's about it. So
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, I'm trying to get past that
Speaker 1: barrier so that I can operate and do what God
Speaker 1: is calling me, you know, to do. So that's that's
Speaker 1: been a little challenge, but I am I'm getting there.
Speaker 1: I'm getting It's a daily get it, it's a daily
Speaker 1: I get it. It really is like waking up every day.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's the same with walking with walking with God.
Speaker 1: It's like I tell people all the time, that's a
Speaker 1: daily decision. You got to get up and say, all right, Jesus,
Speaker 1: it's me and you again today, because at any given
Speaker 1: point in time, I dare you to get up one
Speaker 1: day and don't acknowledge God. You know what I'm saying, Like,
Speaker 1: it's so easy to just slip, and before you know it,
Speaker 1: you be finding yourself saying stuff you wouldn't normally say,
Speaker 1: doing stuff you wouldn't normally, going places you wouldn't normally go.
Speaker 1: If you don't keep God at the forefront and at
Speaker 1: the top, you know what I'm saying, Like, it's easy
Speaker 1: to do.
Speaker 3: Mess to Moronda, don't say your prayers one day, Yeah,
Speaker 3: by your whole day be thrown off.
Speaker 2: Don't say your.
Speaker 1: Prayers one day, like and it's just it's crazy. And
Speaker 1: then you know, sometimes I know one of my biggest problems,
Speaker 1: So I'm very intentional now about not doing that. But
Speaker 1: one of my biggest problems is being too busy. I'm
Speaker 1: too busy. Oh I gotta do this, I gotta do that,
Speaker 1: I gotta do it, And before you know it, you
Speaker 1: ain't talk to God in five days.
Speaker 2: Girl, I'm guilty.
Speaker 1: You be busy with work, you be busy with this,
Speaker 1: You be busy with that and before where you know it,
Speaker 1: you ain't talk to God if I didn't watch this
Speaker 1: though you're still going to church, still, you're still doing
Speaker 1: all this stuff, but you ain't talk to God in
Speaker 1: five days. You just going through the motions and you
Speaker 1: ain't talk to God in five whole days.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like you feel like all of a sudden, like
Speaker 3: everything just started crashing it. It's like God is like,
Speaker 3: I'll try to get you at try to talk to you.
Speaker 3: So you have to like go into like a a sabbatica.
Speaker 2: Like I had to do that, like.
Speaker 3: Last week, I had to like take myself away, yes,
Speaker 3: for social media, because God was like, Sis, daughter, I'm
Speaker 3: trying to talk to you, yeah, and you're not listening.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I had God had to like shut me down,
Speaker 2: I said, my little coller and I was like, okay, Yeah.
Speaker 1: I went on a consecration. I don't even remember what.
Speaker 1: It was, probably about a month or so ago, and Sis,
Speaker 1: it was the best time. It was the best time
Speaker 1: just to spend with God. Yes, like to just bask
Speaker 1: in just his presence for him to to just be
Speaker 1: right there with you. And so what I would do
Speaker 1: was I had no phone whatsoever. I had no social media,
Speaker 1: and I would just I would still go to work.
Speaker 1: So I would go to work. But when I tell you, like,
Speaker 1: my productivity increased drastic because I took away all the distractions. Yes,
Speaker 1: I was getting done with work every day ahead of time.
Speaker 1: I was leaving early and going home and then to
Speaker 1: go home and God to meet you at your house.
Speaker 1: He literally dwelled in my house, like I could feel
Speaker 1: him there for days, and it was just me and him,
Speaker 1: and I would have my prayer time and then I
Speaker 1: would have my time where we just we hung out,
Speaker 1: Me and God hung out. And honey, it's no better friend.
Speaker 1: There is no better friend. My mom is probably like
Speaker 1: my best friend in the world, and even my mother,
Speaker 1: there is no better friend than Jesus Christ, you know,
Speaker 1: dining with you and communing with you, and just the
Speaker 1: wisdom that I gained in those seven days was just
Speaker 1: it was crazy. It was crazy.
Speaker 2: So yeah, it's just a beautiful It's a beautiful.
Speaker 1: And even then, you know, like he spoke to those
Speaker 1: low places, those dry places, and it's like he filled
Speaker 1: me up again and it made me feel like God
Speaker 1: will make you feel like you could do anything work
Speaker 1: and you can with him. But he is such a gentleman,
Speaker 1: like he would just like feel you up and just
Speaker 1: make you feel like you could just fly want it too.
Speaker 2: He is like the master encourage.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was just to hear him so clearly, like whoa.
Speaker 3: And it's like they have like a notebook and I'm like, okay,
Speaker 3: what'd you say? You like, write it down because I
Speaker 3: don't want to forget, like if I had to go
Speaker 3: back and like and read it.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I did.
Speaker 1: I did some journal in that week two. I did
Speaker 1: some journaling, and you know, just like I said, the
Speaker 1: things that I learned, it was just it was just amazing.
Speaker 1: But anyway, I went through a whole spiel and hopped
Speaker 1: off of my question. But my question to you was
Speaker 1: about to be before I just took it and ran
Speaker 1: with it, Like what's your advice to people who or
Speaker 1: even people like me or just people in general who
Speaker 1: are dealing with, you know, certain seeds of insecurity. How
Speaker 1: do we make it to a place of feeling like
Speaker 1: we have our feet on the ground, Like Okay, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm getting to a place where I feel settled, I'm
Speaker 1: getting to a place where I feel certain, Like what's
Speaker 1: the formula if there is one.
Speaker 3: I don't know about us like a frouveler firste. But
Speaker 3: I just reflect about how I used to be, how
Speaker 3: far God has brought me. And then I also look
Speaker 3: at the promises for my life, like your word said,
Speaker 3: the promises for my life are yes and a man.
Speaker 3: If you said it, Father, therefore it shall come the past.
Speaker 2: So it's just like.
Speaker 3: Loer who you are, like Loyd, that you a God's child,
Speaker 3: Like kay, nobody take.
Speaker 2: That away, nobody for you? What the words the people say,
Speaker 2: what they do, they lot take that old way for you.
Speaker 3: I just want to say, maybe just your faith, ay God,
Speaker 3: it just louis who you are and Lord what God
Speaker 3: says about you?
Speaker 1: And you know in order to do that, and I
Speaker 1: tell people all the time, you know, I know, we
Speaker 1: get here's that word again, too busy, But really to
Speaker 1: piggyback off of what you said, and my advice would
Speaker 1: be too. In order to know who you are, or
Speaker 1: to remember who you are, you got to get in
Speaker 1: His word and because you'll find yourself in the Word
Speaker 1: and you'll find how He feels about you in the word.
Speaker 1: So it's like you know what I do because I
Speaker 1: tell people all the time. Baby, let me tell you something.
Speaker 1: I ain't no Bible schollar, honey. I love the Lord's sister,
Speaker 1: but I ain't no Bible scholar. You'll be like Courtney
Speaker 1: caught a scripture. I'd be like, Jesus, well, okay, baby,
Speaker 1: that's all I got.
Speaker 2: Jesus.
Speaker 1: Well, they'd be like, where that's saying. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to look it up. But anyway, what
Speaker 1: I was saying was, I mean Google and stuff.
Speaker 2: I do my best.
Speaker 3: I just say, like certain stuff of the scripture, like
Speaker 3: did our google it? And the Lord, thank you Lord
Speaker 3: for Google. Jesus, we want to say thank you for Google.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but seriously if you're not, because you know, I
Speaker 1: have all kinds of listeners, so I don't know if
Speaker 1: people are. You know, you might not go to church,
Speaker 1: or you might not know the Bible like that. Listen,
Speaker 1: pick up Google and say hey Google as Siri if
Speaker 1: you have to, what does the Lord say about this?
Speaker 3: Or you know.
Speaker 1: I I google a lot like encouraging uplifting scriptures. I
Speaker 1: literally just type in encouraging scriptures and all these scriptures
Speaker 1: will will will populate. But to me, that's how I
Speaker 1: personally remind myself of what God says about me. And
Speaker 1: when you do that and you constantly I tell people
Speaker 1: all the time, whatever you feed the most, that's what's
Speaker 1: gonna grow.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: So going back to when you were talking about how
Speaker 1: you were encountering cyber bullion, like just imagine, had had
Speaker 1: you not locked into God, or had you not locked
Speaker 1: into your circle of people that loved you and was
Speaker 1: telling you and what's countering what was going on online?
Speaker 1: Imagine if you only saw the attack. Yeah, yeah, your insecurities,
Speaker 1: it would have literally grown to a point that only
Speaker 1: God knows what what could have happened, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. You could have lost your mind or something,
Speaker 1: because people do lose their mind behind it.
Speaker 3: They do they do to level whatever counter or something
Speaker 3: like that, or like oh I will cut back, I
Speaker 3: go clap back. So like the Lord has given me
Speaker 3: like a new way of like lower how to clap
Speaker 3: back but respect respectfully.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I tell people all the time, baby, you ain't
Speaker 1: got to cuss nobody out to get you ain't got
Speaker 1: to cut somebody out to get them together. Honey, I
Speaker 1: will read you your rights and will not even and
Speaker 1: won't even really raise my voice. Yeah, you know, it's
Speaker 1: a respect thing. You know, you we got to learn
Speaker 1: how to better be respectful toward one another. But yeah,
Speaker 1: so it's like it for as for as many of
Speaker 1: the attacks that you got online, you have to then
Speaker 1: read or study or have the counter the opposite fed
Speaker 1: back into you. The more whatever you feed, that's what's
Speaker 1: going to grow. So if you feed on the insecurities
Speaker 1: and you feed on the negativity, that negative that that
Speaker 1: negative mindset is going to grow. But na, if you
Speaker 1: do the opposite and you see what God says about
Speaker 1: you and you you put yourself into the world or
Speaker 1: put yourself into positivity, then that's gonna grow.
Speaker 2: That's how you're able to overcome all the negativity.
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's a journey.
Speaker 2: It is.
Speaker 1: It's a journey, and it's a daily journey. Like I said,
Speaker 1: it's not something that you just go from and then
Speaker 1: it's like oh, okay, well I'm here now I'm good.
Speaker 2: No, you you have to always study.
Speaker 1: You have to always remind yourself and be reminded of
Speaker 1: how God sees you and then too how you see you.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, because like Curtly, you start looking at the
Speaker 3: mirr little makeup this his bare face. I'm like, girl,
Speaker 3: you are fine, fine, yes, beautiful, Yes, Like I have
Speaker 3: to tell myself that like every day you like, without
Speaker 3: the makeup, without the clothes, like this is who God
Speaker 3: bade you to be.
Speaker 1: This girl sometimes like I don't have nothing on, I
Speaker 1: don't wear makeup. But one of my biggest insecurities physical
Speaker 1: wile that has always been my hair.
Speaker 2: I hated my hair. I hated it. I hated it.
Speaker 1: God has just now this within the last year, just now,
Speaker 1: I've been able to take the wig off or take
Speaker 1: the weave out and look at myself and.
Speaker 2: Say, girl, are you cute?
Speaker 1: I look at myself now, I'd be like, are you
Speaker 1: all right?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Cute.
Speaker 1: But for the longest time, I just I didn't think
Speaker 1: that I was pretty without it, well yeah, without it,
Speaker 1: Yeah I didn't. I posted a picture not too long
Speaker 1: ago about I don't know if you saw, but it
Speaker 1: was about I didn't have a filter. Yes, for the
Speaker 1: longest time, you know, I thought that my regular pictures
Speaker 1: were not And it wasn't that I didn't like myself,
Speaker 1: because I think I would like to think I'm a
Speaker 1: very secure person now, But it was just that I
Speaker 1: thought it was prettier with the filter, and so somebody
Speaker 1: brought it to my attention. A good friend of mine
Speaker 1: brought it to my attention, and I was like, hmm.
Speaker 1: I kind of growled, you know, because I was like
Speaker 1: Mandra beasy. But one thing that I am and I
Speaker 1: like to do, I like to and I preach it
Speaker 1: all the time. I hold people accountable and I like
Speaker 1: to surround myself with people that's going to hold me
Speaker 1: account too. So I thank god for my friend. Shout
Speaker 1: out to him. He know he is, but he was
Speaker 1: like you and this dang filter, you know, And I'm like,
Speaker 1: but then when I said down and thought about it,
Speaker 1: I'm like, he got a point. Yeah, you always hid
Speaker 1: a behind the filter. Why don't you just take regular pictures?
Speaker 3: Sometimes I feel you coy because last week I posted
Speaker 3: the process us to be get my hair done, and
Speaker 3: it's like I started with like the struggle is real,
Speaker 3: like the hair, like I let you see my beautith.
Speaker 3: My best friend hay Diane how she was like cover
Speaker 3: my hair and I said, the struggle is real. So
Speaker 3: with Facebook, like whatever, you I don't know. I guess
Speaker 3: the way I have it set up. Whenever I posted
Speaker 3: on Facebook, it all the bat goes to Instagram, and
Speaker 3: so I was trying to like chase the cover of
Speaker 3: it so that whenever you saw it, you saw the
Speaker 3: finished product. But Instagram will let me change it. So
Speaker 3: you saw your hair, you saw I mean, and I
Speaker 3: was just like trying to change it. It was like
Speaker 3: I was like, why are you trying to hide it from?
Speaker 2: Like this is who you are. So I was just like, Okay, Jesus,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna let them see the nappy hair.
Speaker 1: But we're in that social media era and that plays
Speaker 1: into that too. God rest that beautiful woman's soul that
Speaker 1: just lost her life not too long ago, going under
Speaker 1: the night. Yeah you know what I'm saying. But that's
Speaker 1: the era of social media. They push us to feel
Speaker 1: like you gotta be this, you gotta be that.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't want to be none of that sea.
Speaker 1: I just want to know. And so if that means
Speaker 1: that I got to take off the filter more, guess what.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take off the filter more. If I got
Speaker 1: a cringe to do it, I'm just gonna cramish to
Speaker 1: do it because I don't want to hide, you know, behind.
Speaker 1: I don't want my security to come from a filter. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't want my security to come from my wig. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't want my security to come from a beat
Speaker 1: face makeup. I don't want my security to come from that.
Speaker 1: So you know it's it's I'm trying to practice being
Speaker 1: more secure just.
Speaker 2: In my natural, regular, regular, regular self.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's when you was just talking, I was just
Speaker 3: thinking about how, like I start off as a very
Speaker 3: ka consultant and if I think or my tag like
Speaker 3: whatever it was was like lovingless skin that you're in,
Speaker 3: like loving yourself for the inside out. And so when
Speaker 3: I transition from mary Kay to the influencer, I kept
Speaker 3: that because I want people, whatever you laying of my page,
Speaker 3: whatever whatever it was, to Facebook for Instagram, I want
Speaker 3: you to leave with loveless skill at your heads. So
Speaker 3: if you're small, if you're thick, if you curvey or whatever,
Speaker 3: love yourself inside out, like love who God has created
Speaker 3: you to be. So yeah, so yeah, without the filter,
Speaker 3: with the bags or like whatever.
Speaker 1: Whatever, Because say, I've been struggling with these dark circles
Speaker 1: in my eyes because I don't get rid of but
Speaker 1: you know what I've been That's another thing, like we
Speaker 1: put so much into trying to cover up. Why not
Speaker 1: take some time to try to work on whatever it
Speaker 1: is that makes you insecure. So one thing is, even
Speaker 1: though I don't wear makeup, I hate the circles under
Speaker 1: my eyes. So I actually been into skincare like, and
Speaker 1: I've been working on my natural self. If you don't
Speaker 1: like your hair, work on it. So in the pasty,
Speaker 1: I've been taking care of my hair. I wear protective
Speaker 1: styles now, which means my hair is safe, but it
Speaker 1: I ain't ripping out my edges and stuff. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Work on those things that you don't
Speaker 1: like or whatever about your natural yeah, you know, so
Speaker 1: that you could become more secure in yourself. Now, baby,
Speaker 1: this body of mind, y'all just gonna have to get
