💔💔💔💔💔😭😭😭😭 My heart is broken in many tiny pieces to discover that St. James Palace invited me to an evening with King Charles and Queen Camilla @theroyalfamily celebrating Nigerian Diaspora but my email filter moved it to spam and I didnt get to see it until after the event a week after...Haaa! The heart break eh..😭😭😭// Like how could I miss such an important email💔💔💔💔
I wont lie yesterday this grown up woman actually cried for the 19 yr old girl inside me that chose Britain as her home solely based on my love for the pump and peagentry of the Palace.
I think i must have inherited the pump love from my mum who would fly to London around Royal events..and come home to tell stories that shaped my yearning for a future in London.
At the same time, I'm grateful to God and I'm excited and thankful to know that the work we do around culture and creativity is being seen and thankful for the many other events around the Presidential State visit I was able to attend. It is great to know that when you pour your heart into your work. You are seen and acknowledged
The UK and Nigeria are my heart and that invite represents something bigger than me. It represents a voice and resolve to rise with peers and comrades who give their heart to Creativity in the Arts and Fashion.. its a celebration of our Heritage on a global stage.
Here is a special thank you to the Master of the Household/ Royal events team for inviting me. My younger self never dreamed of such a time as this. Thank you for the honour.
To the person that nominated me. I dont know who you are but I'm truly humbled and grateful.🙏🙏🙏. May God honour you.
From now on I'm checking my spam email forever..who knows one day my 19yr old self will get the mail again 🙂 ...🙏.. for now someone pass me the tissue box pls..

This conversation got REAL very quickly 👀🔥
While discussing appearance, identity, and societal expectations, @adejoshnoni i explained that Jesus came to demonstrate the COMPLETE opposite of the standards society has created.
From African parents focusing on outward appearance to people living for society’s approval, Josh shared why true growth comes from being more in tune with yourself and not just cultural expectations.
He also spoke about how Gen Z and Millennials are becoming more authentic about who they are — and Bola’s response had us CRYING 😂😭
“Jesus is not the only one who came to set that standard… He has now sent Millennials and GenZs” 😂🔥
This episode of Seriously Doughnuts is funny, thoughtful, and deeply relatable. Live now on tubbie 🎦 🎙️🍩

THE TESTIMONY // Decor Before and After: Hmnm..The way it rained the night before and overnight with thunder and a fierce downpour, visibility was low and the wind brought down some of the outdoor experience walls built.
The event was due to start at 12noon as at 8am it was still raining heavily.. and so we did the only thing we could, We prayed to God for safety for everyone travelling by road for God's safe keeping and then we prayed for the rain to stop.
I declared 9am as the deadline along with @plush_ribbonsstylingco for the rain to stop and reminded God that He gave us His power to declare anything in His name..
My Brethren, my breathen.. by 8.45..the rain started to mellow and by 9am God came through for us. The rain literally stopped and the weather stayed cool granting us heavenly air conditioning outside as in perfection
The incredible decorators @sarmmie_infinitydecor where able to quickly rebuild the outside experience walls and by 12 noon we were ready to recieve our guests who all arrived safely to the Thanksgiving . God you are good.
My people, my people. PRAYERS work and this is our evidence.
Baba we thank you. YOU ARE WORTHY TO BE PRAISED. Even I am reminded to pray everything to being now cos if you know the type of Naija rain we are talking about here you would know, when I say what God cannot do does NOT exist! Hallelujah!
