I don't usually talk much about acting but playing Harriet Tubman, conductor of the Underground Railroad, on Enslaved was truly an honour. It recently aired in the US and here in the UK on the BBC. In Canada it airs next Sunday at 9pm on CBC for anyone there who wants to catch my episode. https://www.instagram.com/p/CHdwcusFo6b/?igshid=148nv8cy1lqhu

Together we've struggled. Together we've grown. Together we're thriving. #plantfriends https://www.instagram.com/p/CFhIphKly6U/?igshid=vm5nnt7xy7jr

"I'm an artist. Artists don't need permission to work. Regardless of whether I'm acting or not, I write. I write when I'm tired in fact, because I believe your most pure thoughts surface." – Chadwick Boseman https://www.instagram.com/p/CEd9tpFpIpq/?igshid=1h5x61a9ed195

We're still unpacking and furnishing our new flat. Loving it more and more everyday, feeling ridiculously blessed. Can't wait to have friends and family over! https://www.instagram.com/p/CCttPJIpg61/?igshid=1su7fib448dia

BYE: I have so many great memories in this flat with some of the most amazing people. So it's truly bittersweet saying goodbye but also really exciting because it's time for a new chapter! • It's been a crazy few weeks and so much happened all at once that it was hard to process. But after taking some time out to recharge, reflect and replan, I'm feeling more in control of this weird roller-coaster called my life. • Learning to prioritise my wellness, goals and needs is everything right now. I'm trying to take my time with it and be patient. And I want you to know it's okay to take your time too. (at East London) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB5g_BCpedM/?igshid=wdcz1hhhy88l

On this day last year we decided to legally tie the knot until death do us part. I love you for all that you are and all that you'll ever be...Always x https://www.instagram.com/p/CAJEWJEpK_b/?igshid=ijlisx7ubbjf

This is what the first 6 weeks of quarantine were like. Now I'm at week 7 feeling like I could take on another 6 weeks like the introverted extrovert hermit crab pro that I am 😎 (at Lockdown) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_0jL0EJiZF/?igshid=1g2boqfpxzati

You might think it's too late to start a YouTube channel in 2020. But I think now couldn't be a more perfect time. So here’s a beginners guide with tips and tricks I’ve curated after creating content for almost 10 years on the platform!

What I wish someone had told me weeks ago: "It's okay not to be okay." • Sometimes you just have to stop and reflect because you've been running off fumes and the stress has been doing a number on you. So I stopped and I reflected. Things aren't perfect but I'm on a better path now. https://www.instagram.com/p/B_aHi5AJ34N/?igshid=njvc2svp2791

Gave Kyle his first #QuarantineHaircut because it was starting to get outta hand. I was terrified and it was my first time cutting someone's hair but it turned out okay (well we'll know for sure when he styles it tomorrow! 😅) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-mxAYSpvkw/?igshid=1d9v6mzz9q2lh

An update on being jobless and self-employed in this crisis...

King & Queen

Self and Ego

Self and Ego, two peas in a pod.

One is human, one is god.

Self is loving, wise and kind.

Ego’s noisy, proud, and blind.

Ego thinks just, I am me.

Self knows, I am sky and tree.

Ego acts like life’s a race.

Self will ride at Ego’s pace.

Self accepts all Ego’s faults.

As Ego learns, Self exalts.

Ego learns to see its game.

Desire, anger, are to blame.

Then, when all is said and done,

Self and Ego become one.

This is so funny imagine meeting someone who looks just like you but you don’t speak the language so it’s just like the Spider-Man meme
