I’m ending an amazing year of life, full of big wins like getting showcased at The World Cup in Qatar, performing at Budweiser’s BRIT Awards showcase, seeing myself on billboards at the O2 Arena for the BRITs, performing at BAFTA - it’s all a bit unreal 😩 but I also learnt a couple of hard lessons too, and there was a lot of growth. Honestly I’m so grateful for the lessons too.

I feel so blessed that I get to continue to chase my dreams and do it with the best person in the world by my side, @realdanryland. Thank you for taking me on an incredible 48 hours in Paris! 🤍

Ugh I didn’t want to post this at allll, but for Ugh I didn’t want to post this at allll, but for the past few weeks I kept feeling like I should, so I’m going to obey that nudge. Anywayyy, my year started out trash. In early Feb I was hospitalised for the first time since I was a kid for a sickle cell crisis and pneumonia (what a fun collab 😊). It was really scary, firstly, and just a horrible hospital experience with patients shouting racist things on the ward, being ignored by nurses when I was in debilitating pain, being woken up at 2am and told to pack my things to move, having to painstakingly project manage my care, there’s a long list lol. 

But in all that horribleness, I’m very thankful for blood donors. I had to have blood transfusions, and it really helped me. If you’ve donated blood, thank you. You’re literally a hero and are a light to people like me in the worst of situations. 

Also, I’m pretty certain that this sickle cell crisis was brought on by me overworking and being stressed for months prior. It’s the first time I was working full time towards my music dreams and the narrative we get from experts is ‘hustle culture’ and that you have to be ready to outwork everyone else to achieve your goals. That narrative is bull. I followed that advice and the result was hospitalisation (fun!). 

In 2022 I’ve learnt to trust God above alll else, to rest OFTEN, to never overwork, to meditate and manifest, and to put ALL of my dreams and cares in God’s hands. Guys, it’s sooo much better over here! I don’t feel any of the pressure or stress I felt last year, because it’s on God’s shoulders, not mine. My only job is to do what I feel He is saying to me. God has just made things come together, without my effort or input. Like being showcased at The World Cup; I didn’t DO anything to get that. I was having a restful morning on my balcony, the day after having a mid-week beach trip, and I got an email about the World Cup from an amazing contact of mine who had found me online long before that. 

So in 2023, I plan to really trust that God’s ways and thoughts are higher than mine, And if He needed to rest, I’m insane if I think I don’t. He sees the desires of your heart and He gives them to you, trust Him.

This really is a huge deal for me because I’m a one woman band. I’m self-managed, no label, totally independent. It’s a LOT of work but there are some incredible people I’m meeting on my journey who back me and believe in me ♥️

Yesterday’s World Cup Final was honestly the best I’ve ever seen. And to say I was a part of that historical moment is mind blowing. I’m gonna keep going, keep being delusional about what’s possible and I’m excited to see what the New Year has in store.

I know I said I don’t have a manager but maybe that’s not totally true, I’m thankful to God, who keeps working things out on my behalf 🙏🏾 #bedelusional
