I AM A VICTOR! ANTHOLOGY
Dimitria, thanks for joining us. Tell us about yourself?
I am dedicated to ministering, mentoring, and motivating teen moms, young women, and those who may feel hopeless. I am also the founder of Real Sister, Victorious Partners, a community of women committed to growing together in life’s journey.
My goal is to launch a non-profit, Motivating Teen Mom’s Academy, a program to help teen moms overcome the challenges they face in this role. My vision is to have a transitional home with a school and daycare facility, where they will live, learn, and raise their children in a safe environment.
What are five of your favorite things?
I love reading, learning new things, ministering the Word of God, spending time with family and friends, and having a moment to sit by the water to relax.
What is your chapter title?
I Choose Me
What inspired you to write your chapter?
My chapter “I Choose Me” was to inspire other people to let go of the need to please people. To stop allowing others to dictate their lives for them. I especially wanted to inspire women of faith to define victory for themselves and live authentically who God created them to be. We have to learn to release the traumas of our past and rise up to the victors we are meant to be. See for a majority of my life I lived for other people, being and doing what I thought would please others even if it meant going against my moral standards or degrading myself. But I came to a place in my life where I had to decide enough was enough and start to live for me. Not that others don’t matter; they just don’t get to dictate how I live and that is why I Choose Me!!!
What's your favorite quote or scripture?
Proverbs 8:23 And you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.
Also, Helen Keller “The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.”
In five words describe your chapter.
Real, Inspiring, Relevant, Insightful, Honest
How do you let go of those past aches and traumas? How will you be
able to recall the past and smile? Well, you must discover yourself.
You must choose yourself over your windy past. Rid yourself of the
chains of tears you struggle with. Accept that you’ve had some pretty
bad times and accept that it’s time to burst free of living in the hurts of
life. Realize that the future has been waiting for you for so long! Know
that it’s time to step into the light and have confidence in yourself.
