Sharicka's life story is one of triumph, resilience, and unwavering faith.

From a young age, Sharicka struggled with self-esteem and self-worth, which led her to seek validation in unhealthy ways. Her desire to "fit in" often affected her relationships and connections, leaving her vulnerable to emotional struggles and doubts.

The end of her marriage forced her to confront the reality of shifting her focus from her relationship and family life to God and herself. This transition was not easy, as she had spent years prioritizing the needs of others. She embarked on this journey of HER, physically, spiritually. and emotionally, allowing herself the time and space to heal. Through this process, she found peace and a renewed sense of purpose.
