September 6, 1986 was a beautiful day because many awesome incredible women were born this day including me. I love September not only because it’s my birth month because it’s the month of seasons changing. Days aren’t as hot. Fall starts playing peek a boo. To be honest anyone born between September and December are the best because Fall, Thanksgiving, and Christmas is something we all look forward to.
I had a great birthday and thank you all for the birthday wishes. I appreciate them all.
This year turning 33 so far has been incredible. Doing things I said I would start doing which is networking. Embracing this year looks like taking on those areas I once was afraid of. I’ve spent my 20’s getting to know who is Tanesha and my purpose in life. Year 30 was the start of my shift and I got married and now I’m believing year 33 is when my rocket ship takes off. Before you ask no not kids! My rocket ship consists of consistently showing up for my brand and audience. Finding ways to continue growing in order to become that full time paid blogger. I’m really focusing on being an awesome wife to my husband and my career. Kids well in God’s timing, of course we both desire to be parents one day; but God’s timing is always the perfect timing for our lives.
There’s so much growth when you allow God to take over
My journey started when I turned 26 years old. Experiencing heartache when an individual who you thought you loved can either make you or break you. In this case it was the beginning of a brand new relationship with Christ. Over these next 6 years leading up to my 33rd birthday. I’ve learned a lot of lessons but I’ll be nice list you all 33 lessons that as helped me mature into the young lady I am today.
Brace yourselves because I’ve learned alot

That was a long list but we made it
I wrote this list in a way that you can take it in as lessons you may need to know for yourself. Just in case you have experienced or is currently experiencing different moments in life. I’ve gone through many of season growing and maturing in Christ. Those 33 lessons is just the half of it. Just making space for Christ to bombard my entire being has been a crazy whirlwind cycle. I’m thankful for every hard and good times that has come my way. I pray that you gained something from the lessons listed.
I am not someone who is ashamed of my past. I’m actually really proud. I know I made a lot of mistakes, but they, in turn, were my life lessons. ~Drew Barrymore
