Hey Yall!
Welcome to 2026! This blog post is “go within: trusting yourself during life transitions.”
It’s a reflection on learning how to trust yourself during periods of change, uncertainty, and inner questioning—especially when the answers don’t feel clear.
This post is based on the first video I shared this year, and I almost didn’t post. I recorded a few videos and deleted them, but this message stayed with me and felt important to share. If you’re going through a transition or carrying something heavy right now, this reflection is for you.
And I don’t have some fancy answer for you.
My best answer is simple, even if it sounds cliché:
Go within.
I know people say “go to God,” and I understand what they mean—but the way we’ve been taught makes it sound like God is separate from us. Like God is somewhere outside of us. Somewhere we have to travel to. Somewhere only certain people can access.
I don’t believe that anymore.
God isn’t outside of you.
Nor is God in a building.
God isn’t louder through other people.
You are God.
Check out the video
You cannot be separated from God while you’re alive. The only reason your heart is beating right now is because divine energy is already flowing through you. You don’t tell your heart to beat. You don’t command your blood to circulate. It just does.
That’s source.
It’s life.
That’s God.
And if that energy is already within you, then the answers you’re looking for are there too.
Why I’m Not Telling You to Go to Church
This isn’t church-bashing. But church is noisy. People are noisy. Opinions are noisy.
Sometimes clarity doesn’t come from more voices—it comes from silence.
Especially if you’re in a major transition…
Or something feels heavy on your heart…
If you’re stressed, confused, or standing at a crossroads…
Most of the time You don’t need more advice.
You need solitude.
Sit with yourself.
Fast if that’s part of your practice.
Meditate.
Get quiet enough to hear your own knowing.
Because here’s the truth most of us don’t want to admit:
You already know what to do.
Most of the time, you feel it before you can explain it.
Deep down, you sense it even when you try to ignore it.
The problem isn’t a lack of guidance.
Instead, it’s that the thing you already know you need to do is usually the thing you don’t want to do.
And nobody else can tell you that answer—because it didn’t come from them. It came from within you.
Stop Giving Your Power Away
We’ve been taught to hand our power to pastors, leaders, gurus, and authority figures—believing they know more about our lives than we do.
They don’t.
No one knows how to run your life better than you.
You were equipped for what you came here to do. Just like animals instinctively know how to survive, build, migrate, and adapt—we do too. We’ve just been conditioned to distrust ourselves.
Faith isn’t about begging an external God for permission.
Faith is trusting yourself. Go within
Try this:
The next time you say “Oh Jesus,” say your own name instead.
Not out of ego.
Out of recognition.
Speak life into yourself the same way you’ve been taught to speak it outward.
Because if you don’t trust you…
If you don’t believe in you…
Then who are you really waiting on?
Nothing Is Good or Bad—It’s Both
What you’re going through isn’t “bad.”
It isn’t “good” either.
It’s both.
Light needs darkness to exist.
Growth is shaped by pressure.
And transformation is rarely comfortable.
Polarity is part of life. And once you understand that, you stop resisting the process—and start listening to it.
Final Thought
If you’re searching for God, look in the mirror.
Honor yourself the way you’ve been taught to honor something outside of you.
And if you’re in a season of confusion, transition, or discomfort—don’t run from it.
Go within.
That’s where the answer is.
If this resonated with you, take a moment to sit with it.
I share more reflections like this—about life transitions, inner clarity, and trusting yourself—on my blog as I document the life I’m building. Join me here and come back whenever you need the reminder.
