No Sales. No Support. But Still I Rise.

Let’s just say it plainly:
Starting a business ain’t all glitter and grand openings.

Some days? I had everything ready—products made, photos posted, prices listed—and not one person bought.
Not one person shared.
Not one “congrats,” not even a “how’s it going?”

Just silence.

But I kept going anyway.
Why?

Because the vision God gave me wasn’t based on applause.

It was built on purpose.

It Hurt... But It Grew Me

I’d be lying if I said it didn’t sting—watching strangers cheer for brands they don’t know, while people I love scrolled past my dreams like they didn’t exist.

There were nights I cried over body butters that didn’t sell.
Mornings I doubted myself before I even got out the bed.
Whole weeks where my website sat with zero traffic.
And let’s not even talk about the folks who asked for samples… then vanished like vapor.

But every “no” forced me to rely on God, not people.
Every dry season reminded me: your worth ain’t tied to numbers.
And Queen, your calling doesn’t need co-signs.

Pop-Up Power, Purpose, and a Second Wind

Fast forward to today...
I’ve had two pop-up shops and baby, the shift is REAL.

Not just in sales, but in spirit.

My husband—who’s still on his healing journey from a brain injury—has started communicating more because of these events.
He helps. He sells. He shines.

What started as me chasing purpose turned into a way for us to rebuild.

This ain’t just about money. It’s about movement.
God is moving. And we’re moving with Him.

To the Queen Reading This...

If you feel like nobody sees you...
If your posts get no likes, your site’s getting crickets, and you’re ready to give up?

Hear me clearly:
God didn’t give you that gift for it to sit in silence.
Your consistency is a seed. Your pain has purpose.
And your glow-up is loading—not based on popularity, but obedience.

Keep showing up.
Even when they don’t.
Even when it’s quiet.
Even when support feels like a rumor.

Because Queen... you’re still rising.
And the crown looks GOOD on you.

With love, strength, and sparkle,
~ QueenDivaC 👑
