A Message from Our Founder
Naje Badu Love
A few years ago, I came into an earthshattering awareness — that I, like so many women (especially women of color), had spent my life striving to be worthy of my own dreams. I had the courage, the desire, and the passion, yet deep inside, I battled feelings of not being “enough.” Over time, I realized that this wasn’t just my story; it was a generational story, one shaped by social conditioning, limiting beliefs, and early experiences that taught many of us to play small.
Through years of deep reflection, therapy, coaching, spiritual study, and journaling, I began to uncover a truth I could no longer ignore: worthiness is not something we earn — it’s something we remember. As I peeled back the layers of fear and self-doubt, I rediscovered the little girl inside me who always knew she was powerful, creative, and destined to make an impact. It was this reunion — the healing of my inner child and the awakening of my authentic self — that gave birth to Journey Up!
Today, Journey Up! stands as more than a brand — it’s a living ecosystem of healing, growth, and transformation. We exist to help women reclaim their worth, rewrite their stories, and rise into the fullness of who they were always meant to be. Because when a woman heals herself, she heals generations that follow.
We are living in a rapidly changing world — one where technology, especially artificial intelligence, is reshaping how we live, work, and dream. But even in this AI-driven era, our most powerful asset remains the same: our humanity. Our creativity. Our emotional intelligence. Our compassion. That’s why Journey Up! empowers women not only to evolve with the times but to lead this new era from a place of alignment, purpose, and inner strength.
My life’s purpose is to help women remember who they are — powerful beings capable of manifesting their highest potential. Everything I’ve learned through my own transformation — the pain, the growth, the triumph — is poured into this platform. From the journals and courses to the coaching and community, each element is designed to help you rise — not by fixing yourself, but by remembering yourself.
Thank you for walking this path with me. Your journey matters. Your healing matters. And together, we are creating a new legacy of women who live, lead, and love from truth.
