New Year 🤎
hello! my name is Pretty Shongwe. i’m 24 yrs old, i love Jesus and i’m trying to figure out how to make the best out of my life.
i an going through a quarter life crisis. i’m juggling a lot of things: 2nd year grad student, working part time, high school ministry, volunteering, navigating a new relationship 🫶🏾
i am grateful for the blessings and opportunities in my life, my family, friends and a supportive partner, yet i feel unfulfilled. i struggle to trust in God’s plan for my life and feel hypocritical working in high school ministry, telling my students to trust Him. i know God is good and i’ve seen Him make the impossible possible. i tend to runaway from my problems instead of facing them head on. lately (a few months) i feel indecisive about what ‘i want’ my life to look like. i have numerous interests but i feel like i’m standing in my own way with my mental health. it’s irritating because i’m studying mental health in grad school, yet struggle to bring my mental health to a healthy baseline for a reasonable amount of time.
this year, i’ve committed to my fitness goals because i know that ties into a healthier mindset. i have two gym partners, and made a workout plan. i’ve also dived into reading the Bible daily, completing study plans alone and with friends, and keeping up with my core group. i read books, listen to podcasts regularly and am doing what i can to expand my financial literacy. my overall goal is to be a more disciplined Christian, and to better myself so i can love others unselfishly.
that’s a lot for the first post, but i wanted to get this off my chest. thank you for taking the time to read all this. if you want to leave a comment/ helpful advice, please do 🫶🏾
-you are loved 🤎

As we enter a new year, many individuals reflect on their lives and set goals for self-improvement. Quarter-life crises are becoming increasingly common, particularly among young adults in their 20s, who often face significant pressure from career, education, and social expectations. During this demanding time, it’s crucial to prioritize mental health and nurturing a positive support system. Engaging in consistent physical activity, such as joining a gym or participating in workout groups, can significantly improve overall well-being and help alleviate feelings of anxiety and indecision. Moreover, incorporating spiritual practices, such as daily Bible reading and group discussions, can enhance your connection to faith, providing guidance through life's challenges. Exploring avenues for financial literacy is equally important; understanding personal finance enables young adults to make informed decisions about their future. Remember, you are not alone in this journey, and sharing experiences with others can foster a strong sense of community and support. Embrace the new year with hope and a commitment to your goals, recognizing that small steps can lead to significant change.
Love your sharing 💛 Welcome:)
