I had the honor and absolute pleasure of presenting at this years 20th AMAA @amaawards_ in Lagos, Nigeria a few weeks ago. 🥹🖤🙏🏾🥂 I had a life-changing experience in Lagos and I’m so excited for you to see what I’m up to next. My first time ever in Africa was earlier this year in Durban, SA, where I filmed my latest movie, A Wesley South African Christmas, & my 2nd was for this awards ceremony. When I tell ya’ll GOD really is moving me around the world because my vision is clear & powerful. As long as I stay the course, it will all flow together. Trusting ME is priceless. I wear cowrie shells as a reminder of the grace, power, femininity and limitless abundance I carry in and around me. Thank you to @girlinchargepr @paffnow for recommending me for this. I will forever be thankful. Glad we got to do this together, Q! 🖤🖤 An amazing birthday to us indeed. ••• 📸 @itiayo

A little #Emmys after party moment. Gotta show up if you want something. You cannot sit at home & you can’t wait for someone to do it for you. In the morning, I was shooting a short film and then had to get myself ready for this event. I was tired, but I’m committed to making my dreams come true. Step into that room & let them know who you are and what you came for. Let them know why God brought you into their lives. It’s been a big transition year for me. People still underestimate my talent & impact. But, it’s ok – this is my story, my unique pathway & God will make it clear who is for you. It’s so kismet to be in these spaces cause I was once a bartender or server in these rooms, hoping someone would look me in the eye and SEE ME. I ran into one of my old bosses that evening too. I love a full circle moment. They are unmatched to showing you how far you’ve come. I have much further to go. Thank you for having me as your guest @ravengoodwin. A time was had! 🫂 Oh, & I made @harpersbazaarus Best Dressed Emmy After Party Looks without a stylist or PR team. It’s me, @marquiswardbeauty & God. Cause what God has for me, NO ONE CAN STOP. Remember that. 🖤 ••• 💄 @marquiswardbeauty 📸 @chancemichaelphoto

Sometimes the hardest part is forgiving yourself after you have given them all the excuses, all the chances in the world to stay in your life. But, things didn’t change. Then, you feel like the dummy for allowing this kind of behavior to persist – all because you believed that you were on the same wavelength – all because you misidentified a few shared common inserests as a potential for true connection. We’ve all been there and life is about letting less of this happen on a regular basis fr. No one wants a lonely life, alas, no one wants to be taken for granted either. 🤷🏾♀️
ALL the memories of this project flooded back like 😭🥹. We really made a movie in Africa. WOW. Have y’all seen ‘A WESLEY SOUTH AFRICAN CHRISTMAS’ yet? I loved it!!!
