She Speaks Wellness

Minister Sonya Hosey, Contributor

Women wear T-shirts with the empowering phrase  “I don’t look like what I’ve been through” and openly discuss their experiences. Despite spending billions of dollars on makeup and hair and achieving success in our careers, we share stories that, at one time, only our inner selves can hear.

Transparency is critical, but listening to your inner voice and sharing your story when the time is right is equally important. Even when others saw me becoming frail, I tried to survive, but only I could hear it. Now, I’m frequently asked to share my story, and I proudly wear my T-shirt with the phrase, “I don’t look like what I’ve been through.”

I have been fortunate to meet some incredible women. We share a deep connection where words are unnecessary to understand each other. Watching these women become their true selves makes me feel like a proud mother hen. Thank you, Pam, for raising your fist with hope for liberation. She probably trembled as she stood but stood vulnerable with grace, offering hope to others even when she’d never seen their faces. 

Transparency is essential for transformation. Being honest about our emotions and thoughts leads to powerful encounters with God. – Sarah Jakes Roberts. Your stories, shared with courage and vulnerability, have the potential to inspire generations and bring about profound change.

Join my Iron Sharpens Iron Table Talk Podcast and share your story to empower women everywhere. Remember, we are over comers by the word of our testimony; we don’t look like what we’ve been through. God still restores Job-42:10 She Speaks Wellness, and She is Well!
