This week and for as long as I live.

When I saw the "things I'm leaving behind" post @alex_elle created I thought I needed it.

So I wrote some things I'm ready to leave behind in my journal.

Some of them are shared in this post.

If you care about your mental health and building healthy relationship with yourself, you should check out @alex_elle she has wonderful content on her page.

I'm sharing a tool I've recently found helpful.

I'm sharing a tool I've recently found helpful.

As a creator and social media manager living with a chronic illness, I like to look for the easiest way to work.

I think I like doing things the lazy way.

Recently, I'm loving this Instagram tool called @plannthat. It is my favorite scheduling tool presently.

With Plann, there is so much you can do but one feature I love is that you can plan your feed and see what it looks like before posting. Don't be surprised if I change the appearance of my feed again.

I also love that I can create an Instagram strategy with their custom strategy or a new one. Plann is really a great Instagram tool.

Honestly, as I explore Plann, I find Instagram more interesting.

P.S: This is not a sponsored post. I'm just sharing what I think might help other creators and social media managers.

So, let me know if this was helpful. Have you tried Plann? Did you like it?

Oh, I forgot. You can create a free account on Plann.

#dearwarrior Remember that you are more important

#dearwarrior Remember that you are more important than anything or anyone.

Stop wishing you were someone else and start working to be better than yesterday.

I think I need this quote more than anyone else,

It's sad that I haven't been investing much into my health. I need to work on living healthier, going for check up, exercising and protecting my peace.

It's a process.

Do you feel you need to invest more in your health too? Let's know ourselves.

This picture is an epic throwback.

2016.

At this point, I was just coming to terms with the reality after hearing other warriors stories with avascular necrosis.

Some said they had it for six years, some eight, some even more but I hoped mine would not be up to six years.

Fam, it's five years already.

Funny how time flies. I'm good though, the pain isn't as much as the early days and I'm managing it quite well, if I should say so.

I believe it's a matter of time. I'll walk well again.

Moral: Know your genotype, help break the sickle cycle and stop the stigmatization.

I look too dark to be true here.

Now, click the link in bio, I have a new blog post.

I hated going out.

I was never the child with many friends in secondary school. I used to be bullied too, many times actually.

Somehow I became really reserved and preferred to be alone. I enjoyed my own company (even till now).

But the lonely helped my learn things that made me realize my worth.

The more I added, the more I became confident in myself.

I don't know who needs to hear this but you need to know your worth and never stop adding to your worth.

Never stop learning, or stop pushing to become better.

Good afternoon, how's your day going? 😊

I think I'm not totally into Instagram anymore.

Although I still love it here. I love seeing your posts and engaging with my favs but I don't just have it 💯 anymore and that's fine.

It's okay to not be 💯 with something you use to be crazy over.

I think I'm enjoying my major strength which is blogging again and I will explore more of it this month.

All it takes is being conscious of yourself. Do you know your strengths?

As a creator, I doubt we can ever get over the fear of not being good enough.

At least I know I do have this feeling. I'm human.

I constantly ask myself "I'm I even worthy of talking about this?" "is this good enough to be online?"

This May, I hope you and I can let go of this fear and just be human.

I am good enough.

Happy new month.

IF MONEY WAS NOT A PROBLEM, WOULD YOU GO FOR A BONE MARROW TRANSPLANT?

I was on Facebook yesterday when someone asked this question in a group.👆🏾

People started dropping comments and to my surprise many said they would go for it.

I have heard about the bone marrow transplant from some warriors but I haven't really educated myself on it so I did not comment.

Here's what I did.👇🏾

I searched on Google and read everything article I could find on bone marrow transplant for sickle cell treatment and went on YouTube, watched videos on it as well.

Today, I felt I should ask you this question. I'd love to hear your opinion if you had the money or you got sponsor, would you go for the transplant?

Let's chat in the comment section. 😉

For me, I would not (speaking from the research I made), I explained much better in a blog post that I will publish tomorrow.

Anticipate that.😎

I also shared a poll on this on my IG story, place a vote for me.

WHAT'S ONE THING THEY SAID YOU CANNOT DO BECAUSE OF SICKLE CELL BUT YOU DID IT ANYWAYS?

I'll go first.

There's a lot, from playing football when I was younger to playing basketball and even fasting in the month of Ramadan.

In fact, I wondered why people said I cannot do it when I haven't even tried.

There is too much rules guiding Sickle Cell but that doesn't mean you have to follow everything.

There are always exceptions to rules and some are meant to be broken.

Learn to try things out for yourself and decide if it is right for you or not.

I shared the reason I fast in the month of Ramadan even though the rule said I should not in my recent email.

Your turn, what's that thing they said you can't do but you did anyways?

What habit do you think you need to keep as a war

What habit do you think you need to keep as a warrior?

For me I think it's the act of gratitude.

It is important to take a break, unplug and look back. You will realize how much you've grown.

And that will help you develop the sense of gratitude.

It might seem like there is nothing to be grateful for but I tell you there is a lot.

The fact that you are seeing this is enough reason to be grateful.

I was reading a chapter of The Secret, and it was stated that one of the secrets to success is being grateful for what you have.

I am grateful for growth.

What better way to start a week than with gratitude?

Happy Sunday to you

Sometimes it's tough to come up with captions. So I'll just ask "how are you doing really?" like how are you really feeling? 🤗

Let me also officially invite you to the IG live happening by 6pm. Swipe to see it.

I'm sure you don't want to miss it. Set your reminder now. 6pm, see you there.

I know what you're thinking but hear me out first

I know what you're thinking but hear me out first and grab what I brought (from the dead) 😇

You know I haven't posted on my feed for a while (I've been on IG story though, check my story), here's why.

👉🏾I was busy with school exams (sacrifices you have to make when you juggle both) so I had to KILL my online part so that I can read for exams.

Now, I'm done and that part of me has risen from the dead. 😇

I'm here to save you from your procrastination and help you start making money on Instagram and blog just as Jesus saved you (us).

I brought something for you though.

👉🏾A free 7 days content creation training via email that will help you learn how to create content so that you can start creating content and head on to monetize.

Click the link in bio to sign up for free.

What's going on with you though, share with me in the comment

LET ME TELL YOU HOW I STARTED MAKING MONEY ON INSTAGRAM

When I started this page, my intentions were

👉🏾Send people to my writing blog

👉🏾Create awareness for sickle cell through writing. I was just a writer

Making money through Instagram was not the plan at all but about two years ago I found an account that brought me here.

I found @creatorialz account, all she did was teach people how to make money on Instagram and I watched her account grow.

No, I didn't just watch, I learned and applied what I learned. Guess what it worked and it's still working.

I realized it's a great opportunity for sickle cell warriors to make money whether as a side hustle or main income.

That's why I decided to share some of the knowledge in this ebook.

"Getting started as a content creator on Instagram".

Dear warrior, it is your turn to learn and apply. Click the link in bio to get the eBook

I don't make friends easily. But I learned and st

I don't make friends easily.

But I learned and still learning.
