Hello darling,

Welcome back to the blog! As I sit here in my cosy little corner of the house with my decaf coffee in hand (yes, you read that right—decaf, because apparently, I’ve become that person), the sun streaming through the window, I’ve been thinking about how long it’s been since we last connected. I owe you a big apology for being MIA for so long. Honestly, I thought I’d take just a short break, but life had other plans, and that break turned into much more than I expected. It wasn’t just about stepping away from my work; it was about realigning my heart, reconnecting with my purpose, and spending more time with God.

Right now, I’m sitting here with my Bible open on the table, and I can feel the peace that’s come from taking a step back and really listening to what God’s been saying. It’s almost like when you finally organise that drawer that’s been giving you anxiety—everything’s clearer and more peaceful. Some days have felt overwhelming, and I’ve had to learn how to go through it all. Through it, I’ve been seeking God’s guidance more than ever—praying for wisdom, patience, and a heart that’s fully surrendered to His will. There’s been a lot of reflection during these quiet moments, and that’s why I felt it was time to finally share where I’ve been.

During this time, one of my main goals was to deepen my spiritual connection with God. I had been feeling spiritually drained for a while, and it weighed heavily on my heart. Having my daughter was such a blessing, but it also made the spiritual exhaustion harder to ignore. As a mother, I realized that my responsibilities had grown, not only for my daughter but also within our household. While my partner stepped into his role with ease, I felt the weight of my responsibilities more than ever.

I began to think deeply about how I wanted my daughter to grow up. While I’m not saying I want to be a traditional housewife, I do aspire to be a homemaker. I want to be present in my children’s lives and not rely on others to take care of them. There’s no shade to those who have to make different choices for childcare, but I believe it’s essential to pray about your situation. God doesn’t want us to live in unhappiness or dissatisfaction.

I am incredibly grateful for all the opportunities my online business has brought me. I cherish the experiences I’ve had, the podcasts I’ve recorded, and the amazing people I’ve met. The lessons I’ve learned over the years in marketing have been invaluable. However, I know that a change is necessary.

Many of you might be wondering what’s happening with my business. I’ve been silent for so long—will I be blogging again? Will I return to podcasting? It may seem strange that someone who used to be so consistent online has gone quiet for nearly two years. This is why I felt it was important to share what’s been happening and provide some understanding of my journey.

As I move forward, I trust that the Lord will guide my path. Right now, I don’t have any concrete plans, but I feel no fear about it. Instead, I feel excitement for what’s to come. Whenever fear does creep in, I take a moment to pray, grounding myself in my faith.

I appreciate your understanding as I go through this season of life. I look forward to sharing more about my journey with you as it unfolds.

Thank you for being part of this community. Stay true to yourselves, keep moving forward, and lean on God’s strength.

As I wrap this up, sitting here still in my comfy lounge clothes (don’t judge me, they’re very comfortable) with the warm light shining through the window, I just want to thank you for your patience during my time away. It’s been a season of change, rest, and leaning into my faith, and I’m so grateful to have you as part of this community. Behind the scenes, I’ve been learning to trust God more fully, letting go of the need to have all the answers (even though I really like having answers), and simply letting Him lead me through this new chapter.

I don’t have everything figured out yet, but I know that God is guiding me step by step. So while I’m excited for what’s next, I’m also trusting in His timing. Thank you for being here with me, for your continued support, and for walking alongside me on this journey. I can’t wait to share more with you as the story unfolds. Remember, you’re not alone, God is with us every step of the way. Stay true to yourself, keep pressing forward, and lean on Him for strength. You’ve got this! (And if you’re wearing comfy clothes too, you’re already winning.)

Speak soon.

Scherise. X
