It's Samiya you say?
"If you want something you've never had, you must be willing to do something you've never done"
Happiness is something I never had, It's all within me.
Welcome! You are here because either you know me personally, you may have come across in passing on social media, or just from a friend of a friend. My name is Samiya, Jasmine Samiya to most. I decided to start telling my life testimony around the year of January 2013 per the platform YouTube. It's very raw and transparent! Telling my battles of it all, toxic relationships, a failed marriage, suicide, depression, forms of abuse I've dealt with, a village single mom with my awesome daughter, lifestyle changes, as well as wanting to heal and embracing my healing towards my mental health. It's on-going every day journey. I started writing short stories about my life telling my flaws, of happiness, strength & pain for years after up until 2018. Here, you will be able to receive elevation and affirmations, per YouTube vlogs and short stores of my testimony
pertaining to several topics of everyday life that we all maybe dealing with.
​
As people we go through a lot. I want to assure you that you aren't the only one. What you are going through someone is or has gone through it. I'm protected! I know prayers were surrounding me during my times of pain and unorthodox issues. Those prayers have kept me here and grounded, yet and still life has a way of life'n . I've been through the test of time; here and back. For the last phases of my twenties, I started the process with resetting myself after a major life challenge in my life which was divorce. As a child I went through a lot that created so many pitfalls that had me angry for the majority of my childhood, teenage years, and as well as early twenties The weight from childhood trauma, poor teenage choices, fast living indecisive choices, as well as not holding myself accountable, settling and not knowing my worth was heavy in my life, on my heart and for my health.
If we aren't growing, then where are we going? The last few years before turning thirty was the most uncomfortable times in my life and I didn't know how to truly manage. I knew I really wanted to elevate and create the happiness I was missing for so long. So, I started the process. Sometimes happiness isn't on my plate everyday but, I now have PEACE! It's a feeling I'm blessed to see and feel. I wish I knew what I know now back then. Being older and wiser and coming into myself for myself has brought me here to share things that are real, vulnerable and honest to help us evolve in this thing called life.
With Love, Samiya
