Hi Besties! How are you? This Holy Week I have to share something. I finally got the time and courage to post about this. And I hope you'll keep reading.
There’s a part of my journey I’ve kept quiet about.
Not because I was ashamed, but because I needed time—to process, to protect my peace, and to find my voice again. Today, I’m choosing to speak.
5 years ago, 2019 to be exact. I was quietly canceled by a blogging community I once called my online home. Without much warning or clarity, I found myself on the outside—unfollowed, ignored, removed. I didn’t fight it publicly. I didn’t clap back. I didn’t even try to explain my side. I stayed silent. Not out of guilt, but out of wisdom.
Sometimes, silence is strength.
And sometimes, it’s survival.
At first, I questioned everything.
Was I too bold? Too honest? Too different?
Was my presence threatening to the status quo? The truth is, we may never fully understand why some people choose to cut others off. But I’ve realized—what they did says more about them than it does about me.
I may have been removed from a group, but I was never removed from my calling. I’m still here. Still writing. Still creating. Still loving the space I’ve built online—one that’s rooted in truth, authenticity, and grace. And that is because, I am here for you my readers and silent followers. Who still to this day reads my blog.
This experience reminded me that not all communities are safe spaces. And not all groups are meant to be forever. And that’s okay. Because I belong to something deeper than a social circle. I belong to a purpose.
To anyone who’s ever been canceled, cast out, or made to feel like your voice no longer matters—please know this:
You are not invisible.
You are not alone.
You are not done.
Your story still matters. Your voice still carries weight. And your light? Still needed.
I’m not writing this to start drama. I’m writing it to start healing. Because now I am back to creating content again. And I am planning to go all out! No more excuses, my passion will continue. For me, and maybe for you too.
I was silenced once… but I’m speaking again—louder, wiser, and more free than ever.
If you have ever have to go through what I have gone through then know that you are not alone. If you are a content creator also who experienced this then remember these things:
Know your why. Communities will come and go, but your mission should stay steady.
Let rejection redirect you. Sometimes the door closes because you're meant to build your own.
Create from a place of healing, not revenge. Your best work flows from peace.
Find your people. The internet is big enough for your tribe—they’ll find you when you show up as your real self.
Remember: your voice is valid. No one can cancel the purpose God has placed inside you.
