In her post, she reflected, “But God… He held me. I’m still healing, but my healing is beautiful.” Additionally, Dada took the opportunity to encourage her followers to show empathy and kindness, reminding them that not everything shared online reflects the full reality of a person’s life. She urged others to extend grace and be gentle, as life often unfolds behind the scenes.
