Life Lately: Reconnecting, Resetting & Realigning

Hey babes,

It’s been a while since I last posted here, and I wanted to take a moment to share where I’ve been, what I’ve been working on, and how I’ve been pouring into myself lately.

Over the past few months, I’ve stepped back from sashashantel.com, not because I’ve stopped loving this space, but because I’ve been busy building behind the scenes and, more importantly, reconnecting with me.

Prioritising My Health & Well-being

One of the biggest shifts for me has been putting my health first. I booked my smear test (ladies, if you’ve been putting yours off, this is your sign to get it done!), got a full blood test after feeling off, and started creating a consistent exercise routine.

The best part? I finally got my own running/walking machine, which has been a game-changer. It’s the first step in building my very own home gym, something I’ve wanted for so long.

I’ve also been sleeping more, drinking a variety of herbal teas (check out my Soursop Tea post here), and making space for real rest without guilt.

Reconnecting With My Faith & Myself

Along with focusing on my physical health, I’ve also been nurturing my spiritual and emotional health. I’ve spent more time with my faith, having honest conversations with God, and finding comfort and guidance there.

I realised I’d been so hard on myself, constantly criticising what I haven’t achieved and even feeling resentful toward those I thought could have supported me more. This downtime has been about releasing that, forgiving myself, and redirecting my energy towards growth and gratitude.

Building My Empire – One Brick at a Time

Even in this season of rest and reflection, I’ve been building. My faceless accounts, @the_slayer_mentality_,slay_and_pray_ and The_King_ Mentality_, are growing beautifully, and I’m so excited about the communities forming there.

I’ve also been stepping into my power as a UGC creator, landing more paid deals and getting clear on what I want my future to look like.

And, drumroll please… I finally launched my dropshipping swimwear store, something that has been on my vision board for years. It feels incredible to finally see it come to life and to start connecting the dots in building my empire. (Look out for my dedicated post on Slaybaebody.com)

Thank You, Always

Even while I’ve been a little quieter here, you guys have continued to show up for me. My blog reads have actually gone up during my break, and I can’t thank you enough for that support.

I’m back, babes more grounded, more focused, and more determined than ever. Thank you for sticking with me, for checking in, and for continuing to read and support sashashantel.com.

Here’s to new beginnings, fresh energy, and finally stepping into everything we’ve been dreaming of.

Love always,
Sasha 💋
