Why I Slowed Down — and Attracted My Biggest Brand Deals Yet
By Christine Ntim
Fear is “What if”.
Faith is “Even if”.
What’s driving you today? Faith or Fear?

As we kick off another month in 2025, it comes without saying that this has truly been a unique year for many. The world is filled with uncertainty and doubt and it’s why I wanted to share how I am navigating this season in the world.
First, I’ve accepted that the pace of change will continue and that I have to know when it is right to catch up and when it’s vital to step back and rest.
Chasing every trend or opportunity will get you burned out. It’s better to play the long game at a steady pace then to rush with shortcuts and not finish the race at all.
With that said, that means some of the milestones you set for yourself will take more time. You will face more obstacles and your progress will be challenged more vehemently.
I’m here to say that it’s okay. As someone taking my own advice pill on slowing down, it has been a game changer for my business and career growth as a whole this year. I’m launching exciting new projects and attracting some of the best brand and partner deals of my entire career. This was possible because I literally took a couple of weeks out this year to rest, reflect and review my social media strategy, my business plans, my career goals etc. It was the best move.
So, pace yourself. No matter what happens along the way, keep the faith not in your peers who might disappoint you or in your mentors who might disappoint you or even your loved ones who might not encourage you.
Keep the faith in you and your ability to find a way. Fear will have to take a backseat in this chapter of your journey.
With love,
Christine Ntim

Last month we had an entire webinar training series focused on getting booked to speak that you can recap here: Episode 1, Episode 2, Episode 3, Episode 4.
As we entire June, I want to shift the approach of our webinar series to give you solution oriented sessions as opposed to strategic information. Which means, I will be accepting questions directly from you to answer in my future webinars. Reply backwith any question you want me to cover and I will host a session on it.
Now, the next session takes place tomorrow at 11am EST. Level Up: How To Reinvent Yourself for the Life & Career You Actually Want in 2025. Register here.
This is an extremely practical and insightful session and here is why I’m hosting it.
Are you being ghosted lately by potential clients, employers, or collaborators?
If the answer is YES, then there is ONE major reason why your brand is repelling opportunities and it’s not what you think.
If you’re sending out messages, posting content, or showing up — and still hearing crickets — the problem might not be you… it might be how you’re being perceived.
This week I’m getting to the heart of the matter and will share how to reinvent yourself in 2025 to get the career and life you always wanted.
