She tweeted:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201c5 years ago I gave up my dream of becoming the greatest female rapper in Africa. I was suffering a deep, dark depression. Today I own a Tech Start-up, I have new life & I\u2019m Recording again! Here\u2019s what I have learned about giving up your dreams, Depression & Finding yourself<\/span><\/p>\n

You are an Artist, You are NOT your Art. Over the years I had become identified with what I did \u2014Eva The Rapper – I didn\u2019t know myself beyond that. It has taken years of persistent introspection, meditation & patience to know myself and stand apart from my work.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“I now understand the Depression as a Spiritual experience- a shedding of old layers, the stripping away of illusion, a coming face to face with all that isn\u2019t so I can see what IS I am not my thoughts, I am not my Body. I am not my accomplishments. I AM \/\/not medical advice<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The Depression was the pathway to my Awakening. It forced me to give up who I thought I was, to block off everyone else and their dogmas, and to accept a state of nothingness. I found peace when I accepted myself as No thing, No one, No me. \/\/not medical advice<\/span><\/p>\n

Your Purpose in Life has nothing to do with making Money & getting Fame. I was famous, yet I was dying daily in the loneliness of my privacy. I found Purpose when I learned that my Gifts were given me by the Creator to help people Focus on serving people, all else is bullshit<\/span><\/p>\n

Fame can Destroy you if you are not grounded in your Source. Everyone knew who I was, but I looked in the mirror & was lost! I committed myself to KNOWING my Self & God within. I questioned everything & searched in weird places for ancient wisdom. If you Seek you shall find<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“Be You, the world will adjust. In finding myself again, I realized I didn\u2019t have to do what was expected of me. I started using my gifts in New ways & felt no pressure to please anyone. I simply did what I wanted to do. You are still here.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Sometimes you may have to give up who you think you should be so you can become who you really came to be. I thought I wanted to be a Rapper. Now I have come to understand myself as a Teacher at my core. My skills in Writing, Speaking, Music- all combine now to help me Teach<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

What people think is their problem to deal with. Trust that You know what you are doing. I got even more depressed reading comments like \u2014 \u201cYou fell off \u201cWhat are you doing with your life \u201cYour career crashed\u2014 I learned to block the noise & trust MY WAY. I am happier for it<\/span><\/p>\n

In Finding yourself and starting over, you are ALLOWED to do whatever the fuck you want.<\/span><\/p>\n

I gave myself permission to try new things & do it ALL!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I built a SAAS platform<\/span><\/p>\n

I created content online
\nI hosted Webinars<\/span><\/p>\n

I did more writing<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“As an Artist, you can do many things, but you CANNOT be everything at the same time. Trying my hands in different things meant that I learned and acquired many diverse skills quickly. But to grow as a person, I have had to CHOOSE one thing & combine my skills to fulfill that<\/span><\/p>\n

“As an Artist, taking a break from your Art is Beneficial. If you spend your time away developing yourself and acquiring new skills, everything you learn will combine to make you an even better Artist. I didn\u2019t quit music. I stopped to go find my true self. I am better for it<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

7 Things that pulled me out of the Depression:
\nMaking peace with being a NOBODY
\nPositive affirmations & Journaling<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0An obsession with Self development
\nIntense Daily Exercise
\nFerocious reading & study
\nMeditation
\nConnecting with Nature<\/span><\/p>\n

\/\/not medical advice<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“Everything you were told is a Lie. You have to give up the old Mind & become born-again. I was raised Christian\u2014after the depression, being born again holds NEW meaning. You must rewire your beliefs & become transformed by the reNEWing of your mind. Question everything<\/span><\/p>\n

“Happiness is NOT a destination. It is a state of mind that can be tapped into by the redirection of your Awareness. People want to be happy when they: -get the job -become famous -have more money If you are not happy where you are now, you won\u2019t be happy where you are going<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Entertainment is great. Education is Power.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For 5 years through my healing process I
\nstopped listening to music
\nstopped watching TV
\nstopped going out<\/span><\/p>\n

Instead I stayed home &
\nread books
\nlistened to audio trainings
\nenrolled in Youtube University
\nspent time with fam369310<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“Here are 6 Speakers and 5 Books that Helped me a Lot when I was depressed:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n


\n– Jiddu Krishnamurti
\n– Neville Goddard
\n– Alan Watts
\n– Dr Myles Munroe
\n– Jim Rohn
\n– Les Brown<\/span><\/p>\n


\n– Think and Grow Rich
\n– The Power of Now
\n– Seth Speaks
\n– Feeling is the Secret
\n– The Artists Way<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“You can\u2019t give your Best to the world when you are broken. I always knew I was going to get back to my music as some point, I just didn\u2019t know when. Day after day I watched my Confidence plummet but my focus was on being healthy, not pleasing the world. Take care of you<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Yes I am back to recording again!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Fortunately, I don\u2019t give a fuck about fame.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I am now only making music for people who want it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Today I find fulfillment in using my words not only to Rap & Entertain, but to Speak, Teach, Inspire, Empower and uplift people.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“I now spend my time juggling between helping Creators make money selling courses and recording music.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

It is by Grace.<\/span><\/p>\n

PS: When I was depressed, I was also unfortunately Broke AF. I turned to the Internet and learned how to make money online by selling my own digital products.<\/span><\/p>\n

Be vocal about your Pain. Every time you share, you help the next person. Sharing my stories through the years has been a super weapon for me.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
