Today we’d like to introduce you to Chanda Manning.
Chanda, let’s start with your story. We’d love to hear how you got started and how the journey has been so far.
Hi! I am a lifestyle blogger and create content centered around Faith, Marriage, Motherhood and Everyday Life. I am a woman who made the radical decision to stop settling and live a life I desired and one I knew I deserved. But it wasn’t always that way. I know what it’s like to be in a place that’s emotionally defeating, intellectually draining and spiritually damaging. I am also assured of the possibility of changing your life, and it’s pretty simple. It is not God’s intention for us to live unfulfilled and defeated. The day I decided to stop settling is when the game changed for me.
I’m married to an amazing man, Brandon and have two beautiful kids, EJ and Kellee. I am also very intentional about living my life in a way that gives God glory. My blog is where I share my family, life experiences and pray to be an example for others. And to all the women out there, No matter what you have been through or currently going through, you got this and I’m rooting for you!
Has it been a smooth road?
It has not been a smooth road, but the reward has been worth it. I would have to say the biggest struggle for me was the opinions of other people. It’s one thing to know what you need to do, but it’s another when you put other’s opinions before your own. The BEST thing that happened to me was the day I realized that NO was a complete sentence.
Please tell us about your work.
I run a lifestyle blog that focuses on ALL things Faith, Marriage, Motherhood, and Everyday Life and there’s so much more to come. What sets me apart is that I’m not a writer who does this for fun, I’m a woman who’s been through some things in life and spend every chance I get inspiring other women to believe that they are also one decision away from living the life they desire.
How do you think the industry will change over the next decade?
The world of blogging has been around for some time and even though I’m new to it, I know that it’s here to stay. Like myself, I believe that everyone has something to share and it’s time for us to be bold and share our stories so that the people that are coming behind us know that there’s hope!
