098 – trusting in the waiting @jessicaoyelowo shares how she has learned to wait, trust and take bold steps of faith in her life. One significant step for her and her family was moving to Hollywood, and during this time, God kept leading her to the story of the Exodus in the book of Joshua. Jessica shares her insights from this section of scripture that helped her to trust God’s direction no matter how weird or insurmountable it seemed. Jessica Oyelowo is an acclaimed actress, writer, musician and producer. Jessica heads up Yoruba Saxon Productions alongside her husband David and they have 4 wonderful children together. Many of her ventures combine her passions of story telling, family, Jesus and empowering women, which has most recently resulted in her debut album ‘(M)OTHER’. You can find the link to listen in our bio. #waiting #trusting #jessicaoyelowo #streamsstudio #joshua5

HAPPY 12th BIRTHDAY ZOOOOOË. Kind, beautiful, compassionate, passionate, feisty, fabulous, talented amazing girl. We love you so so much. You completed our family in the most stunning way when we welcomed you 12 years ago in Pittsburgh PA during Thanksgiving weekend while @davidoyelowo was shooting Jack Reacher!!! You are so special, loved and precious to us and so many others. Happiest of birthdays Zozo xxx
This guy @davidoyelowo keeps popping up all over the place. Can someone tell me what’s going on please?
Take all the crap life and people throw at you and use it as fertilizer for your soul, or get buried under a pile of pooh. Up to you. 💩
The @sagaftra strike is over so I can post about @lawmenbassreeves 🥳🥳🥳 This is my first post because this is my favorite pic of @davidoyelowo that I took while we were shooting. It was hot, they were wearing woolen costumes, but the joy of riding alongside @tosin.morohunfola and #forrestgoodluck made everything amazing! David has been working on this project for 8 or 9 years in total. He saw a true overcoming hero in Bass Reeves and wanted to be part of telling his remarkable story. He has done that and then some. I had the privilege of producing the show alongside him and many other talented people. None of this is done alone, but someone has to lead the charge. My King David. You are astounding. Well done for never giving up on honoring Bass. Well done for starting with the right intention and finishing without flinching. Lawmen Bass Reeves has started streaming on @paramountplus. The first 2 episodes are out now. Episode 3 will drop on Sunday!! (I also play a small role in the show as David’s slave mistress. It’s weird.)
Relationship advice from someone who knows. Make sure you go on regular dates with your loved one. It should be somewhere quiet where you can really engage in each others’s conversation, feelings, needs and interests. #love (We❤️ @lewishamilton)

I don’t want to be afraid of what I’m capable of anymore 🤩😭🙄🥺❤️ I think I got it a bit wrong about her solving the Apollo 13 problem while in labor, but she solved something difficult while in labor (other than how to get a giant baby out of a tiny hole). Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant woman. And then she raised a talented actor and singer and all round funny man when she was a scientist. 🤯 I mean maybe Jack’s childhood was a nightmare, but maybe she was actually amazing and wasn’t afraid of all her brilliance. That’s what I’m going for. LET’S GO!!!!

My heart’s running around in my mind!!! This one’s for you mamas and anyone struggling to do the things they want to do! There’s a link in my bio to my album, (M)OTHER. It’s a story book album of my own journey through motherhood, the high and lows and incredible lessons learned. The biggest lesson? Who Am I? And how do I let go to move forward? Have a listen and a cry and share with all the mamas. All the love and hugs for you amazing humans raising amazing humans. 🥳❤️
A note from Jessica: “The Gift of You” is the theme for the December issue of the Mothering Journal and as the featured artist this month I wanted to share a little of why I do what I do. I tell stories. I love getting to the bottom of the truth and presenting it in a way that speaks to our humanity, our struggles and our triumphs. I produce TV and film, I write, I direct, I act and I SIIING!!! In my album (M)OTHER I wanted to explore the depths and heights of a mother’s journey taking the specifics of my own life and presenting it in a universal way, through music, to reach all the mamas who can feel alone in their own journey. We all struggle, we all have triumphs. How precious it is to share our experiences, to know we are seen and heard, loved and cherished? You are AMAZING mama!!! Together we can figure out who you are now, why your voice still matters and how life after children doesn’t mean your time is up!!! You are a gift to me. I need you, we all need you.
