Hey y'all hey, it's ya girl Tashia... I'm Bizack, lol. Does anyone still talk like that in 2026? No... they don't... awkwarddd.
Anyway, here I am, and boy does it feel good to be back—even though I'm slightly struggling to write this blog due to the surgery under my eye. But I'm throwing on my glasses and keeping it moving. Like I always say... THE ASSIGNMENT MUST GO FORTH UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE. So here I am... now where do I begin?
Welcome to Phase 1 of the Ripple Affect website rollout. God finally gave me the green light to go public with it. As you guys know, I've been holding onto this announcement for a long time because I didn't want to run ahead of God being impatient... that inner work is paying off, chii.
Rather than a day-by-day recap of everything since my last YouTube video, I wanted to share a snapshot of what’s going on with me today. Moving forward, the bulk of my journey will be televised on my YouTube channel, @artsetapart (you can find the link at the bottom of this page). However, I also plan to share exclusive, unlisted content right here on rippleaffectart.com that won't be available anywhere else. To make sure you don't miss a thing, I invite you to do two things: first, subscribe to my weekly blog here so you’re the first to know about exclusive vlogs and big announcements; and second, head over to YouTube to subscribe to @artsetapart so you're notified every time a new video drops. My life is undergoing a lot of beautiful transitions right now, and there is so much more ahead. Stay tuned!
Now that we have that out the way, I have sooo much to tell y'all... but as you know, there is still a big part I cannot share at the moment. If you have noticed a quietness on my YouTube channel over the last month, it wasn't a loss of vision, it was an enforced season of REST. Recently, I experienced a severe physical trial that required unexpected facial surgery and an intense, ongoing period of physical healing, which by the way, I'm still in. I want to say out loud that in my mind I do believe the worst PART of my journey is behind me, but at the same time, I understand in my past God has allowed me to take short breaks from the streets and then return to them.
But if I'm being honest, something about this time feels different, and so I'm just really in a place where I'm trying to FLOW with God versus trying to control. I want to carry out the actions and faith works that I can that benefit my future, while keeping my FAITH and HOPE in tact in Him. Because if I'm being honest, the enemy has been trying to use the very people around me (that claim they are trying to help me, in my immediate environment (his favorite strategy) to get me to feel like I'm hopeless, helpless, powerless, Godless, like I don't matter... and the list goes on. Y'all get the picture, but I'm not picking up what he's putting down.
What I'm learning at this very moment is to hurry up and forgive people, charge their debt off, and let it go, because if I don't, it only weighs me down. I have to extend the same grace that God extends to me, and understand that them trying to trigger me and convince me that I don't matter says more about them than it does about me.
And what does it say? It says somewhere along the journey of their life, they came in contact with someone who carries themselves similar to the way I do...someone with high standards for their life, someone who understands their identity in Christ, someone who understands that to whom much is given, much is required, and someone who understands that with much elevation and privilege from God comes responsibility... and it made THEM feel less than. They thought the person was trying to make them feel inferior, and the enemy told them, “BECAUSE of THIS PERSON, you are less than.” And it is a lie from the pits of hell. So that is what I'm dealing with at the moment. We simply don't speak the same language, and so because they don't speak my "language"... I keep my interactions with them to a minimum.
I'm currently staying in a shelter for women that should remain nameless for now... and you would think I would be ecstatic about it... but I'm not. However, I am grateful to God because I know it was His idea to send me here in the first place, and so I'm doing my best to stay here until He says, "It's time to go, Tashia." Even with that being said... there is a lot going on in here that makes me feel a bit uneasy, and I have filmed a video about this articulating my thoughts the best as I can, so stay tuned for that on my YouTube @artsetapart.
At this point, I sometimes feel like I may be asking for too much... getting on God's nerves... getting on people's nerves, but I am not. At least, not in God's eyes. I just want so much more for my life, and God has so many goals for me to accomplish, which I am delighted to do because these are actually things that I'm passionate about.
I understand why there has been so much opposition to who I am and what I'm doing though... because I'm a threat to the kingdom of darkness. And when "they" see you as a threat, they come for you. They target you, they bully you, they try to harass you, they study you, twist your words around, and attempt to diminish you. They attempt to make you feel like you don't matter because somewhere in their subconscious, they feel like they don't matter, especially when they see you.
THE AUDACITY of you trying to bear fruit and continuing to put your hand to the plow even in the face of adversity and hardship... THE NERVE OF YOU... JUST WHO do you think you are? “Oh no no no no (insert your name here). You are not it, you don't even look the part, you cannot do that, you are nothing, look at where you are... in a shelter... your life is over and blah blah blah...”
Listen to me... y'all better keep going. You better keep allowing God to help you in carrying out your purpose so you can WATCH your life flourish in more ways than one. You will see it come to pass, and don't worry about the criticism of others. At the end of the day... OBSERVE their lives. Now that you have observed them, ask yourself... WOULD YOU TRADE PLACES WITH THEM? If the answer is NO, then why in the heck would you take advice from them or care about what they think?? Yall see how crazy that sounds and looks?
Y'all are on TWO totally different frequencies. They could never understand your Kingdom Mindset... because you are set apart for Christ...you are cut from a different cloth... period. We are not trying to prove anything to these people nor get them to understand... it is above us... literally. Give them to God and keep going, MmmK?
Alright now... I'll talk to y'all later. In the meantime... feel free to come into my digital homespace... look around... don't break nothing now...unless you want to help financially to maintain this website. hehe..j/k.
If you have any questions or ideas for content you want me to do in the future, drop them in my "Contact Me" box or the comment section on YouTube. Keep in mind I've never run a website or a business before, so please be patient with me... I'm still trying to learn and figure this all out.
Let's continue to build, Architects... from the bottom up in Jesus's Name. Amen.
