Did you see what I done today, Ms. Karine? Girl, you have powers and can see into the future. I promise you seen me acting up today and crying about my problems out of angry. Jesus Christ told you to post this ASAP! 💯
@@user-do6kh7ob9waww sending you so much love! God bless you and bring you immense joy! Peace overflowing and endless love ♥️🥺♥️
God bless you girl
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Its unbelievable to me seeing a girl looking like a princess and thinking that her life was hellish at times.I hope you get the best part of your life 💗 also rock bottom is when the deep healing happens so it is not as embarrassing in someone's story
Thank you so much! And amen to the last part ❤❤
Wow! from my pov, you are the most healed person I’ve ever seen. You don’t wear trauma physically, mentally, intellectually, and so on (From my POV) I would not have ever guessed you went through all those things. Jesus loves you❤
Wow that is the best compliment I’ve ever received and all glory goes to God! Thank you so much 😭♥️
@@karinealourdementalgems Your Welcome! May Jesus continue to bless you, strengthen you, and renew you, in the name of Jesus, Amen❤️
I want to visit Haiti only becouse Karine is making it interesting for me. I'm tired of people talking about Europe, but nobody say something about countries in central-America.
I’ll be going to Haiti really soon for a documentary, I will show every bit of it and change the narrative. Only the capital is dangerous right now because of the west. But every where else is gorgeous and the narrative needs to change.
Go to Guatemala, my parents are from there and it’s beautiful. They’res Mayan pyramaids and you can go to places like Esquipulas. It’s like a mall but outside, you can get drinks, clothe, accessories and food for cheap and get so much. They’res also theme parks and the environment is calming.
@@johnosmiar9678I’m going in 2025 God willing. I will screenshot your comment for reference ❤❤
@@karinealourdementalgems thank you 🙏🏼 good luck. I would just be careful in the capital and be aware of when you’re getting overcharged. I’ve witnessed tourists get scammed by locals and pay around 60$ for a 15$ bag. So, just be careful. But you should visit places like Tikal and lake Atitlan, they’re beautiful.
@@karinealourdementalgems I wish you total success in your endeavors!🤍 I also look forward to one day watching your documentary. Actually, I’ll do one better. I look forward to the day I can cheer you on, as you win an award for said intriguing documentary that will make you, your people, and the ancestors proud!🏆
So heartbreaking knowing that Haiti was the first country founded by escaped slaves. It was, at one point, a literal haven for black people that even the French couldn’t beat! The disasters, poverty and gang violence is so sad - on a side note your journey is so inspiring 🙌🏽♥️
and if those escaped slaves went back to their home land (africa) i believe they will be better off its 224 years of independence and no progress as a country
Karine sorry about your mom passing, I know she’s smiling down on you ❤❤
😢 yeah I’m sorry, Karine your mom seems amazing 😞 🤍🤍🤍🤍
Praising God and acting is the formula. Move forward. The past is the past. I don't let it be your excuse
When you are determined the Lord will make a way
The depression phase is realizing there is something wrong. Its cross road and choice to either wollow in the sorrow or swim to shore. The Night time of the soul. Sadly alot of people get stuck or go back to the old.
God bless you queen
@@deagopablo6044 God bless you too
It’s tragic and very tough to be an immigrant for sure. US folks don’t get it.😢 it’s so traumatic. I recommend the movie Cabrini it’s so good! Thank you for sharing.
Yeah but Italians in Italy today are super racists against immigrants… go figure
Poverty is low vibrational no matter where it is. It’s literal spiritual warfare. It’s something that I had to overcome but thank God he gave me the sight to see
I really want you to know that this came right on time. Literally 10 min I was just sitting here feeling sorry for myself. I needed this reminder ❤
🙌🏽🙌🏽 God definitely wanted to remind you ❤
Yes, perfect timing. 😊🥰
I love the fact that you acknowledge God in all you do
I've been going through the longest stretch of low emotions, and tbh, kind of just recovering from a recent nervous breakdown. Going through my healing journey, struggling to let go of the past... Your video is the second that really resonates with me today and I am beginning to think it isn't a coincidence. Thank you for uploading.
The Lord is comforting you! That means you have a breakthrough coming soon! Start activating that spirit of gratitude and get ready to receive ❤❤
It was all for a greater purpose… one day you will be speaking to bigger crowd and your story will bring peace and comfort to someone else.❤
what a beautiful testimony❤❤thank you for sharing as a Haitian woman i'm so proud of YOU ❤
you can laugh about it now. that’s the miracle full circle
We need the movie version omg this is such a wonderful story of strength and overcoming ❤
🤍🔥 Karine, you bring so much love to my heart. You are more powerful and valuable than you will ever know, and may God and the world continue to bless you. I resonate with your words, your vibe, so much. Thank you for sharing your story and your wonderfully articulate insights. I can tell you're an avid reader through your eloquent speech. You are blessed with inward and outward beauty. Please continue to shine your radiance like the star you are. Even in the darkest of times, your light emanates like a lighthouse guiding lost ships through the storm. You're helping to heal my femininity, I felt shattered and empty from repeated sexual abuse. Your peaceful presence is like water for the soul. Please continue to share your advice. We can all feel your love, and we love you dearly. ❤️💐🌟🕯
Wow this comment just made the water works flow. You are so eloquent. I can tell you’re an avid reader as well. I’m so happy that you are still here and resilient through so much pain. Wow! God bless you and restore you completely, giving you a new heart and a new mind. May He surround you with real love and light and prepare you for His kingdom, where one day we will meet and I can give you a warm hug. Thank you so much Sarah ❤❤
@@karinealourdementalgems You just gave e me chills and tears of love! It would be an honor to meet you. I pray one day we will, but for now, here is a big warm virtual hug! 🤗❤️
🤍🔥You are brave, wise, and tenacious in telling your story. 💐👑
Thank you for this @ 4 a.m when I am woken up by a depressed era 🎉 praise God!!!❤
Praise God!!! ♥️♥️
Sending you much love, I know how hard it is to be a child immigrant. I also came to America at 7 years old and it was very very difficult, I can’t imagine how much more it would have been so without my mom physically. I thank you for sharing your experience and sharing your lessons. You truly have changed many of our lives 🤍🔥
🥺🥺 thank you so much for this ❤❤
I was backwards with WHY ME , mine was WHY NOT ME ,WHO AM I ,NOBODY SPECIAL is how I moved around in life so when I came across those WHY ME type people didn’t upset me but more of who the hell is you princess Diana even she goes thru stuff and just accepted what was and made it a normal that stuff I did go thru that nobody shouldn’t of that when I was blessed I FELT BLESSED ❤
I resonate with everything you've shared about your life, from identity issues, xenophobia to bullying , having your spiritual eyes and more. I'm only 23, still going through it, but your testimony has given me so much hope. Thank you so much Aunt Karine. May God bless you abundantly for sharing your story, for starting this platform and sharing so much insight and knowledge with us, you're also helping a lot of young women like me out there. There's light at the end of the tunnel. Love you much.
Wow Karine your testimony is impactful. As a Nigerian I am inspired by the Haitians your determination as the first black country to gain independence is remarkable. Your tough tests allowed for you to pour into us! Love your kindred spirit and grace. Sending you love 🫶🏾
You are wise beyond your years!
I loved hearing this story. I’m about your age, hispanic (Cuban/Venezuelan) from FL and grew up with Haitian kids around me. Basically all Caribbean kids - Jamaican, Haitian, etc. It’s where I learned how different each country/island was from each other. Kind of like how a Puerto Rican will wince if you confuse them with a Cuban 😂 as a fellow daughter of immigrants I felt that, when you said how moving to the US it doesn’t matter what your profession was back home - you start from the ground up. I saw that firsthand in my own family. Engineers, doctors, professors, etc coming here and working as janitors for their first jobs. That’s why education ends up getting sooo drilled into us! Our parents saw it as the ticket to get the next generation back on their feet again, no matter what new country they found themselves in. And omgsh yess I remember that little scholastic competition 😂😂😂 girl my little nerdy self was all up in that too!
Anyway, I will always feel a lot of love for my Caribbean brothers and sisters. Even if we are different races there’s something about Caribbean culture that oddly unites us. Especially the spirituality - sadly I saw a lot of voodoo/santería growing up, too. But people from the islands are some of the most hardworking, traditional, and Christ-loving I have ever seen. I still feel the tenderness in my heart to this day when I meet another Caribbean - and I live in the US South now, so they are much harder to find. I was in Walmart recently talking in Spanish to my grandmother and a Jamaican overheard us and got so happy listening to us, he stopped to ask us where we were from 😂
Thank you, I needed this. Because being below zero can be really hard to get up and try again. When you say the past is the past, I started crying because it's hard for me to get over mum's death in 2022..
Wow, mine it different i went to haiti at the age 8 yrs old. I was born in Bahamas. I experience bully in kidergaden through high school. It was tough grow up in haiti. I still have some trauma.
I’m always looking forward to your videos even more grateful for sharing your testimony about your life and faith. You’re such a good mentor and an inspiration.
All glory to God! Thank you so much for watching ❤❤
God has been so Good to me I exalt his name now and everyday of my life. 🙏❤️☦️Awesome God ❤️my family are happy once again and can now afford anything for my family even with my Retirement.$67k weekly returns has been life changing, after so much struggles.
Hello how do you make such weekly??
I'm a born Christian and sometimes I feel so down of myself because of low finance but I still believe in God….
Maria Angelina Alexander I really appreciate her efforts and transparency.❤
I remember giving her my first savings $20000 and she opened a brokerage account for me it turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me.
Glory to God I've been hearing lots of good things, and her trading strategies and programs are great!!
YES!!! That's exactly her name (Maria Angelina Alexander) so many people have recommended highly about her and am just starting with her from Brisbane Australia.🇦🇺
I didn't speak in infant school in the UK. It wasn't because I didn't know English, I picked it up, but I just didn't speak. I was mostly shy. So I can relate to you Karine ❤
I’m sooo THANKFUL for GOD for you today. You have no idea how much this beautiful and vulnerable of your sharing today.
Please do more on these topics bc THE DEEP is bringing more humbling love to open more in my heart for myself, others, and just giving another perspective to HEAR to walk more in righteousness
I’m white and come from a poor white family in a ghetto country side in America . To be with Jesus he lifts us out of the flesh and places us in the spirit to not see the physical of places and people. There is no skin color in the spirit. There is good and evil in the physical places. I’m so beyond grateful for Jesus coming for me.
I too was placed in a masculine role because of such low vibration and ignorance in these poor communities/ towns / cities bc Jesus was not there FULLY upon the elders as children.
So I was placed in masculinity to SURVIVE that jungle of confusion and in a community that I looked like but did not operate or behave as them. So many truths in this video and personally hit my spirit of so many confirmations .
I also lost a parent (my father) and I have a mother that walks carnal and in a lot denial of our history and so much toxic generational bondage .
Thank you Karine for bringing so many together here on your channel and for standing in THE LORDS STRENGTH when the world wants you to remain fearful and mute. I’m soo grateful you are SPEAKING and using your VOICE of your amazing walk of testimony (even down to no electricity) I was also in a similar situation and Jesus walked w me and walked together out of there. You gave me so much inspiration today to use what I have bc i do have talents and in Jesus Strength and his will I will keep taking more action . Bless you Karine
Ps.
🤍🔥
Karine thank you for being this vulnerable in your platform it demonstrates how brave, strong, humble (in the best way) and healed you are. I went through difficult times too not ghetto area but very middle class I felt bad my entire life because me and my family weren’t upper class. I went to just a regular school and regular university nothing special like going to university in a whole different county or state or the best school because we could not afford it. My family have been working blue collar jobs their whole lives. Now I’m a teacher going to law school in a whole different state paying my own school working remotely, have 2 rental properties and excellent credit. My whole family moved to the upper class suburbs now I understand that it was timing now I’m practicing being more patient and grateful.
God bless you. You're an INSPIRATION, Karine. ❤❤❤❤❤
God bless you! Thank you for always supporting ❤❤❤
Dear Karine, the Lord has done wonders in your life ❤ What a testimony of redemption!
May God perfects his work in you.
🤍🔥 Girly this was so good! At times I’ve gotten discouraged and that discouragement put me behind my goals but I’m still pressing forward!! The Joy of the Lord Yahuah is my strength 🫶🏽
Girl, this was right on time. 💞My condolences on your mother, may she rest in peace. I have been watching your channel for a while. You remind me of a close girlfriend I have. I thank you for sharing your testimony with us and I believe in Jesus Christ as well and I do not believe in reincarnation. Thank you for sharing the truth and operating on faith because you’re an inspiration! ❤
Very classy thoughtful comment!
God bless you queen
Your story sounds so similar to mine, but i moved to germany from America as an 8 year old. It was cold and dark, and everything was weird, lol. Enjoyed this video very much!
I can imagine! Drastic changes like that for children is so traumatic ❤
Blessed love queen
🤍🔥
Thank you for this powerful and intimate testimony, Karine. I am grateful for and appreciate your gift.
I can relate to wanting to be a boy and resenting being a girl. The gender stereotypes that I saw had men living life, while women did the backbreaking work to try to keep things on an even keel.
I had a successful career using this 'male mentality' but I didn't know who I was as a person. Thanks to you, I'm learning to embrace my femininity.
Have a great day Karine.
The title sounds like this video is just what I needed. Praise God 🙌🏻❤️🔥
Amen ❤❤
Because of what I went through I most make it
Yes, I fell in love with your femininity videos. I would love for you to start creating those videos again. Make no mistake, I love the current content as well!!!❤❤❤
You are such a blessing sis! I know it’s not easy to be vulnerable, but thank you so much for pouring your heart out! I admire you so much! Beautiful testimony, glory to God 😊❤
Thank you so much Ciera! God bless you ❤❤
Wow the Lord is using you to speak to me. Thank your Karine ❤ crazy’s a month to two ago I had a revelation about depression he said depress makes you self centered me me me why me and I was like that for a very long time but Glory to God he take me out of that. I make a lot of excuses for a lot of stuff because I’m scared. Scared to make the wrong choices. Thank you God bless you ❤
You are such a beautiful woman, and an inspiration to me. ❤
Thank you Karine for your obedience and being a vessel for The Most High!🙏🏽 I have been more grateful lately but this reminded me to be even more grateful. All things work together for those who love him. I don’t wanna be anyone other than myself. Glory to God.✨ 🙌🏽 I look forward to visiting your beautiful home country one day. There’s some lore in my family that one of our ancestors immigrated from Haiti to America. If that’s true I pray that evidence comes to light. I’ve always been intrigued by Haiti, maybe that’s why. 🤍
You look so beautiful in those Haitian garments ❤
I think you just explained what a lot of Black kids go through in the hood and why the develop such tough exterior.
Karine I’ve been blessed watching this. Thank you. Your testimony is powerful and I promise you you are right this moment touching someone’s life. You are beautiful inside and out! ❤️🙏🏻
You're such a light Karine thank you for sharing
🤍🔥 I would've never guessed you went through as much as you bravely described on this video. God is good, and I thank God for sending me this message through you. I am in awe of your beautiful spirit.
Just found your channel.
I appreciate your sincerity.
Thank you for sharing 🤍🔥
I loved hearing your story/testimony 🙏🏼 You’ve been through so much and it’s a blessing that you are who you are now. Your mom would be sooo proud of you! 🤍🔥🇭🇹
😭😭😭 you are such a sweet soul! Thank you so much for that last part 🥺🥺🫶🏾🤍
I can relate so much Karine. Came to the US from Africa in the early 2000s and yes it wasn’t cool to be African then. It is now with Black Panther, Afro beats etc
Also about the food, I did work in Disney for a while and had a lot of Haitian coworkers. Never saw them buy food at work. They always brought their own lunch. I’m only 10 mins in but thanks for sharing and the consistency, always look forward to your videos.
I completely understand because we had a couple Congolese & Nigerian students in my schools and they got bullied right along with the Haitians. It’s a miracle we all made it. And yes Haitians love to eat their own food lol I know your coworkers had the lunchroom smelling like strong spices 😂
@@karinealourdementalgems yes my high school had a lot of Liberians and Sierra Leoneans and they always got into fights because people wouldn’t leave them alone.
Yes the Haitians has the lunch room smelling of strong spices lol but they would share with me and it’s not much different from some West African dishes.
Your make-up is so flawless. I love this video of you and what you endured up to now and feel very touched and proud of you for staying true. Please keep it up and don't stop no matter what. I know exactly what you spoke of I too did not have a mom ...
You have an amazing story & I applaud all that you’ve overcome & accomplished. Definitely would love to hear more stories about Haitian culture & history!
Thank you so much! And I will work on some more ❤❤
Sheesh what part of Miami this was 😮
This was Orlando, but Miami was far worse 😭
You are a blessing,thank you so much for all your content.....blessings to you from Mexico !
You are so welcome ♥️🇲🇽
Thanks for sharing this . I would’ve never thought that you been through that
Thank you for watching ❤
🤍🔥I Love this so much! This Conversation was Everything!! Thank You so very much for sharing! ❤️❤️❤️ Both of your channels are amongst my absolute favorite videos to watch!❤️
Wow my goodness I was so locked in ! My mother passed when I was a child as well and my father went to prison. My brother and I was separated and put into foster care and it was TOUGH !! I too would have jumped at gender reassignment if that would have been a thing then because I despised being a girl. I think it’s because I had to grow up so SO fast and my environment aka “the hood” You are absolutely right … it’s survival day by day and no child shoulf have to ever go through that but good on YOU for making it out. When you talked about everyone wanting their mommy my heart and soul ached for you ! I know we are from different worlds but we truly have so much in common. I’ve ALWAYS been drawn to you and now I know why. Thank you for sharing your story & God bless you. You are truly doing such amazing things and I pray God keeps you and protects you to keep sharing your knowledge and wisdom with us all ! You are such a light !! ✨
You're just like the beautiful, strong, resilient flowers you speak about in your videos. Thank you for your videos and sharing with me.
Thank you, Karine, for sharing your story and testimony. I really needed to hear it. 🤍💫Thank you for trusting us with your vulnerability. God is good, and He doesn't waste anything.
Thanks God, He was your greatest Teacher. God is great
I love Haitian people. I've always admired Hatians endurance,wit, and compassion. I was raised in Broward and I MISS some Lalo 😢. ❤

Thank you for sharing your story. I am first born American. 100 % Garifuna. Your channel is one of my favorites.
I love Haitians and a I feel in love with a Haitian man in graduate school my late 20's. He broke my heart, but I feel for him due to similar cultures.
Haitians are proud of their culture, intelligent, well educated, creative and strong.
I love and adore Haitian 🎵 music and food.
Keep up the good work Karine Alourde with your channel ❤.
Sorry for your loss with your Mommy.
You looked so beautiful with your Hatian Day blue photo.
