This week’s Glow Doll Diaries is all about learning how to keep glowing even when life flips the script on you. ✨

In this episode, I get real with y’all about how my weekend went from being all planned out and cute to… whew, a rollercoaster of emotions. I was supposed to be at my man’s niece’s birthday party, hair laid and outfit ready to give soft auntie vibes 🎀 — but life had other plans. His grandma passed away 🕊💔, and everything shifted.

I take some time to open up about how much his grandma meant to me. From the very first time I met her during a 10-day trip to DR, she welcomed me with the sweetest heart. I never got to meet my own grandparents, so she truly felt like the grandma I never had. In this episode, I dedicate a prayer to her memory, honoring her long, beautiful life and the love she left behind.

At the same time, I also had my brother’s wedding to attend 💍✨. My man was supposed to be my plus-one, but since he couldn’t be there, I had to show up solo. And let me tell y’all — walking into that wedding alone taught me a powerful lesson. Sometimes you can’t control who shows up for you, but you can always control how you show up for yourself. Period.

💡 Main Lesson of This Episode:

Life is always gonna throw us curveballs. Plans will get canceled. People won’t always be able to make it. Joy and grief can show up at the same damn time. But what matters most is how you respond. Are you gonna shrink? Or are you gonna stand tall and still shine like the prize you are?

I break down exactly what “showing up for yourself” looks like, including:

✨ Not canceling on yourself when plans fall through.

✨ Finding peace in the pivot instead of stressing about what didn’t happen.

✨ Walking into any room with confidence, even when you’re alone.

✨ Remembering that you’re still the main character, no matter what changes around you.

This episode is a mix of real talk, soft girl energy, and a little raw honesty — ‘cause y’all know I’m not about to sugarcoat sh*t. I laugh, I get emotional, I pray, and I pour into y’all the way I always do.

So if you’ve ever had your plans fall apart, if you’ve ever had to show up alone when you wanted somebody by your side, or if you’ve ever felt like life was testing you back-to-back… this one’s for you.

Because being a Glow Doll isn’t about living a perfect, aesthetic, bow-tied-up life. It’s about glowing through the mess, showing up for yourself anyway, and remembering that you’re always the prize. 💅

And let’s be real, showing up for yourself doesn’t always mean looking perfect or having it all together — sometimes it’s just brushing your hair, throwing on that cute lip gloss, and walking out the door with your head high even when your heart feels heavy. Sometimes it’s dancing at a wedding even though you cried earlier that morning. Sometimes it’s saying, “I still deserve joy, even in the middle of chaos.” That’s the kind of duality this episode dives into — the soft girl balance of honoring your emotions but not abandoning yourself in the process.

So if you’ve been feeling drained, if your plans recently got flipped upside down, or if you just need a reminder that cancelled plans don’t cancel your glow — press play, baby. Let this episode refill you, remind you, and recharge your energy so you can keep walking like the masterpiece you are. And remember, even when life is messy, you’re still glowing, you’re still worthy, and you’re still that girl.
