In today's Motivational Monday episode, we're back and this one is POWERFUL. I'm opening with something that moved my entire soul—a sermon from Rev. Aisha Taylor-Issah on "The Other Side of Through" that will transform how you see your STRUGGLES, your SURVIVAL, and your FAITH.
Aisha breaks down Psalm 23 like you've never heard it before, unpacking what it REALLY means to be blessed and highly favored, and celebrating every single person who has been through something and made it to the other side. This is more than motivation—this is a testament to your resilience, your faith, and your warrior spirit.
For those of you that may not have heard from me the last three weeks, I was walking through a valley that I never expected. My father was hospitalized, and those days tested everything in me. But through it all, I discovered something revolutionary: God doesn't just protect us around our struggles—He carries us THROUGH them. And when you make it to the other side, you realize you've been blessed and highly favored the entire time.
This isn't just MY story—it's YOUR story too. WE ARE ALL SURVIVORS. Whether you've lost a job, fought through financial hardship, watched a relationship crumble, faced a health crisis, or any of the valleys we walk through, this episode is here to remind you: You survived. God brought you through. And your survival is worth celebrating.

Your story matters. Your survival matters. Your faith matters. Let's keep building and celebrating our authentic journeys together—because we're all on this journey, and we're all blessed and highly favored. 👑
Cousin Ed's Corner isn't just about motivation—we're LIVING it. We're celebrating survival (Special thanks to. Rev. Aisha Taylor-Issah). We're honoring faith. We're building community. Share this with someone today! 🙏🏾
