Hello beautiful people! My Name is Christina Weathersby and I’m so happy that you stopped by to read my many, “Words, Words, Beautiful Words — Borrowing from each other” -Curious Theater Denver, CO (2009)

I was born and raised in Colorado. Always dreamed big until a mental illness shifted my path in life. In my early twenties, I struggled to try to figure out my purpose and direction. Because I relied on what the world thought of me, I placed a college degree on a pedestal to help determine who I was. Not realizing that the unknown future after school was an underlining fear of mine.

Thoughts of not being good enough, struggling to find true love, experiencing multiple loved ones dying, and also having a negative body image put me in rounds of mental insecurity and fear. After a time, I realized that my worth wasn’t based on a college degree or on a man, but based on how I perceived myself as a black woman and human being. I was a woman that needed a lot of healing and restoration, through my relationship with God.

What mattered was my mentality and my ability to reflect on the good things in life regardless of the hurt and pain I had endured. I shifted my perspective by learning that my mindset and proactiveness would be the only way to success. Little did I know that all the pain, hurt, and obstacles I had gone through in life would become the driving force to bring me to the point of creating this blog.

This blog is a reflection of not only my strength to survive but yours as my reader. Regardless of any obstacle we may have faced or are in the midst of facing; we persevere in such a significant way that it overwhelms our past selves. 

My prayer is that this would be a safe space to reflect on the important things in life while mindfully growing into more fearless, powerful, and life-changing people. May the words in these pages heal you as much as they have and will heal me.
