Why Talking Doesn’t Mean Drama: The Case for Hard Conversations
Maybe I say things too softly or to loudly.
Maybe my silence becomes a blank page people write their own story on.

The Tired Kind of Faith
2025 has been a long episode of life lessons. It’s as though my life hit auto-cruise on “things Erin should learn.” And honestly, I’ve learned plenty. Here are a few of them:

Dear Life Phases
Hey there, beautiful people (and the me who’s reading this): Whew, these last few months? Totally different vibe. I mean, it’s been ages since I put pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard) and actually hit “publish.” There were days, weeks, even, where I’d open my drafts, stare at a blank screen, and then promptly close the tab like, Nope. Zero words, zero motivation, zero posts. So, if I missed saying “Happy New Year,” take this for 2024 and 2025, okay? You’re welcome. To the

Adulthood Is Not a Race, Abeg; What I Wish I Knew at 20
Nobody warned me. I just woke up one day and realised I was in a silent, invisible competition I didn’t sign up for. A race. To get a degree. Get a job. Secure the bag. Be a soft babe. Find purpose. Serve God (but aesthetically). Have clear skin, perfect reels, fit arms, glowing faith, and a thriving business. All before… what? 25? Please. 🧠 When Did Life Become a Checklist? Suddenly, adulthood became a spreadsheet. People are tracking wins like KPIs. Comparing pain like bad

With a Heavy Heart
She didn’t scream. She didn’t throw anything or curse the heavens. She just stood there, in the middle of the room, phone in hand, heart somewhere between her ribs and the floor. The message was short. Clean. No fluff. "Unfortunately, ..." Unfortunately! Again?? She laughed; not the funny kind, but the broken kind that tries to stitch up a crack with sound. Because deep down, she’d already said yes. In faith. In prayer. In plans. She had bought the metaphorical balloons, bake

My Source
The past few weeks have been plagued by a lot. In fact, more than a few weeks if I'm being honest. The past months have been a lot for my soft girl aesthetics. I have cried, wept, prayed, rejoiced, lost hope and found faith all together. And if I’m going to be honest with myself, all the rollercoaster of emotions was because of me being my source for most things. I was the planner, strategic supervisor, vision maker, mood board designer and all things I need not be doing as G

Dear Insecure Girl...
There I was with my 10-year-old frame and 13-year-old body, yes, I was 13 but I could comfortably pass as a 10-year-old, and no one would argue. I thought my 13th birthday would bring the wave of puberty I had been waiting for, like God please hear my solemn cry, I want breast too, I want bum-bum, I want hips. Everything about me then was the opposite of what I wanted, from my glasses-frame to my height, to my figure and so many more, annoyingly! Everyone my age had a thing o

Forgiveness
Having promised to bring in the full gist today, here it is.. but first, Good day, how was your week? Did you sleep well? Did you pray today? Did you read your bible? (I'm legit stalling before I start)... Enough with the drag, let's continue our story... So, the story continues this way... Anger was just cruising through her veins, all the forgiveness she had given was out the window, but she remained calm, semi-calm?🤷. You know the story started with 3 friends, ehn ehn, s

Superpower or Not
I have for a while wondered what my life will be like if I were a superhero, would I be able to fly (hahaha 🤣, my mother will cut my wings), or will I be able to disappear (someone will pour powder on my silhouette), what of fire breathing (lmao🤣, let's just say, I'll function more as a fire extinguisher than any other thing), hmmm thinking of the powers to have in a Yoruba Nigerian home is tricky, your powers could earn you a gift of 40 days dry fasting (and that's the min
