Hi, my name is Aaliyah, an 19-year-old creator with a deep passion for fashion. Recently, I made the decision to step away from college to pursue a dream that I believe God has placed on my heart. For a long time, I felt this pull—this reassurance—that my purpose was different, that He had a bigger and better plan for me outside the traditional path. I want to encourage you not to get caught up in what the world tells you is the “right” way to live your life. Instead, focus on what truly brings you joy and fulfillment. College or a specific career path doesn’t define your worth or who you are as a person. For me, staying in school started to take me further from what I was meant to do—building my brand and creating something that inspires others. Don’t ever feel like something isn’t possible just because someone said so, all things are possible with God. This journey is a leap of faith, but I trust that God is guiding me every step of the way. So, wherever you are in your journey, don’t be afraid to follow your heart and His plan. Everything will fall into place when you walk in purpose. Jeremiah 29:11.
