Congratulations !

📷 by : Dear Winston 🐏❤️🖤

Thank you for allowing these last 3 years here to not only become my home but also help me build lifelong friends and family for a lifetime. Coming from another institution after my 1st semester of my freshman year I thought I wouldn’t make it here or be able to continue but through these rough patches , challenges, adversity, as well as other things that I had to go through to find myself and who I am as a person I finally found my way through and I can’t thank you enough.

To My Friends & Family on this campus

I can’t thank you guys enough , I know I may be hard to put up with sometimes and can be hardheaded but you guys help me shine in ways I thought I could never before and with that you guys will forever have a special place in my heart and I’ll always love , respect , and appreciate you guys.

To My speakurmindpodcast_ crew

I just wanna take the time out to thank you guys for stepping into something that would take time , trust , and patience for this to lift off and with a limited amount of time with you guys we made this thing work and helped a numerous amount of students on campus with situations and challenges they were facing and at the end of the day that’s all I wanted to do with not only my podcast but with our voices. With that being said I will be leaving my podcast in the hands of dpe_von & _realityofzo my two All star Cohosts.

Congratulations !

📷 by .tashon02: Grace Made Room for My Becoming.

This journey didn’t just give me a degree… it gave me growth. There were moments I felt stretched, seasons that tested my faith, and times I had to trust God even when I didn’t understand what He was doing. But every challenge shaped me into the woman I am becoming.

In this season, my prayer has been simple: that my life reflects God. His grace, His favor, and His hand over my life. I hope my life and growth continue to serve as a reminder, an inspiration, and a vessel of what He can do. Without Him, none of this would be possible.

“He has made everything beautiful in its time.” Ecclesiastes 3:11 ✨

On Friday, May 15th, I will once again graduate from Winston-Salem State University, this time with my Master of Healthcare Administration. This moment is more than an accomplishment… it’s a testimony.

Still blooming in His timing. 🤍�Makeiah Trotter, MHA
