Well… That Was 2025

As we close out 2025, I just need to say this plainly:

WOW.

What a year.

What a ride.

What a “Lord, if You don’t step in right now…” kind of season.

Somewhere between survival mode, holy endurance, detox baths, evidence folders, and moments where I had to pause and ask, “Did that really just happen?” we did something kind of incredible.

We started The Vine Sisters in March.

MARCH.

And before I could even catch my breath, we grew into a community of over 128 women. From everywhere. Different backgrounds, different stories, same strength, same discernment, same “oh… so it’s not just me” realization.

That didn’t happen by accident.

That was God. Period.

And we didn’t stop at vibes and group chats (although, let’s be honest, elite vibes).

We built infrastructure.

An app, The She Vault, launching in January.

An outreach program, The Vine Visits, also launching in January.

And digital courses that don’t just cover cybersecurity, but help you get back to yourself.

Because what’s the point of securing your devices if your spirit is still depleted?

We prayed together.

We studied scripture together.

We gathered women from all over for prayer calls and Bible studies, speaking the Word, reminding each other of God’s promises, and calling things out in the spirit like we meant it.

We laughed.

We cried.

We shared moments that make zero sense to outsiders and perfect sense to us.

We are family.

Now… let’s address the elephant in the room.

Are we trauma bonding?

Sure. A little. 🤭

But it’s bigger than that.

I’m your sister in Christ. And I’m here to remind you, especially on the days you forget, or when the enemy tries to confuse you, that God is not done with our story.

And I hate to spoil the ending, but… He wins.

Always has. Always will.

So yes, keep detoxing.

Keep doing your baths.

Keep gathering evidence.

Keep getting scanned.

Keep documenting like your life depends on it (because… it does).

But ALSO…

Like I told you before, get dolled up.

Wear your favorite perfume.

Put on that dress that’s been staring at you from the closet like, “girl, when?”

Those shoes that have been screaming wear me since 2021? Yeah. Them.

How about in 2026 we start living again?

2025 was about survival, like so many years before it.

But it was also the year things started getting exposed.

We found allies.

We found truth-tellers.

We found people brave enough to speak when it wasn’t comfortable.

And then there’s you.

And you.

And yes, even you reading this right now who’s absolutely about to like, subscribe, and share. 😉

So let me say it clearly:

WE DID THAT.

But before we close this year out, I need to do something important, give flowers. Loudly.

Because The Vine Sisters didn’t grow on vibes alone. It grew on prayer, commitment, and women who showed up.

Sister Letty - a whole powerhouse. When I tell you her prayers are PHHHEEEEW… I mean, God definitely hears her. Spiritual heavy-hitter.

Kristen - truly amazing. She helped us build community in such a real, grounded way. A connector. A supporter. One of those women who makes people feel seen instantly.

Autumn - another beautiful spirit who helped shape the heart of this community. Gentle strength. Steady presence. Exactly who you want in the room when you’re building something that actually matters.

Just to name a few, but truly, thank you to ALL The Vine Sisters.

Thank you for believing in the mission.

Thank you for understanding the strength that comes in numbers.

Thank you for showing up, even when it was hard.

God made no mistake when He put us together. Not one.

This was intentional.

Now… since it’s the end of the year and I’m feeling a little bold, let me say this, with love and humor:

Tulsi Gabbard, I expect you to do the right thing. Truly.

Kash Patel… listen. I read the book. I was rooting for you. But you kinda lost it there and didn’t keep that one promise. So next year? Let’s do better.

Bondi, you too. Accountability is still in style.

And Trump… I hear you may know this is happening. If that’s true, I pray God gives you the wisdom, courage, and backbone to put a stop to it. You can do it. History is watching.

No shade.

Just expectation.

Because leadership comes with responsibility, and people are paying attention now.

So go ahead, give yourself a pat on the back.

YOU DID THAT, honey.

You really did.

You are a bad mamma jamma. Yes, even the men.

What we go through is unthinkable.

We are warriors.

Some of the strongest people I know.

I love all of you.

I’m wishing you an incredible New Year, filled with blessings, miracles, healing, joy, and rest.

May 2026 be the year that grants us justice… and peace.

And before we step into it, let’s pray.

///

God,

Thank You for carrying us through what we could not survive on our own.

Thank You for protection, clarity, and community.

We ask for healing: physically, mentally, and spiritually.

Break every stronghold that does not come from You.

Bind every plan of the enemy meant to harm, silence, or confuse.

Release deliverance, restoration, and peace.

Open doors no one can shut.

Close the ones we were never meant to walk through.

Cover us as we step into new beginnings: bold, grounded, and unafraid.

We trust You with what’s next.

In Jesus’ name,

Amen

Isaiah 60:1 🙏🏽
