What Not to Stress Over During COVID-19 Times

We don’t have to have it altogether. I have seen the memes and yes if you are a creator or someone who is thriving on one front you may have the ability to create or acquire more skills. It may be easier for you to learn a Tik Tok or start a YouTube page. But if you are literally running out of food, lost your job, or just scared or dealing with anxiety and being super creative may not be the…

That goes to show you that you can make the best of anything finding ways to approach the…

Easter 2020 Full of Change

Peaceful Start

Monday Motivation: Cohabiting and Distancing inside the Home

There are a lot of things being said how you should move in this world right now. For one the only thing that should be stressed is being inside of your own home where your bills are.

Quarantine Woes...This week of Struggles....

Quarantine Woes…This week of Struggles….

During this time, we have so much on our minds. Some of its based-on survival and some of its about mental and emotional health. I took a few thoughts that I am sure we all have but are too afraid to speak it openly and will address them here. Mental and emotional health are on the line with many. The unknown is stressing people all the way out.

National Reconciliation Day

It’s a beautiful thing to discover a fault, recognize the wrong doing and make a conscience decision to not only to say sorry but to turn from the fault and do the right thing in changing the behavior. I know a few folks missed a few steps in this short paragraph so in order to reconcile there are steps. We also going to also talk about reconciling from afar too.

This show really set the bar high for a full-on performance. So, if you have ever…

I’ve written about him many times and it comes to no one’s surprise that my dad,…

Monday Motivation: Gratitude Challenge

So is it a good thing to spread gratitude? Yes! It’s better than spreading all kinds of negativity. We know some of the negativity is based on truth of our current situations. Some of the things that’s happening is beyond our control. We can’t change them. However our mindset is something we can work through.

Mindfulness

I’ve said it in my deepest depression it usually started with a bad thought…

Sunday Message: Inspire Someone

I want to put out a series of inspiration because we could use it during this time! It’s hard trying to manage anxiety, fears, or heart break! We have a lot to keep together.

Saturday Chats

Women History Month: Lauren teaches us not to play small!

Do you deserve it all? Do we have the right to want more and go after more and then after we do so how will we walk in the worthiness of accepting our place? It’s a lot. I find women question this often. This inner battle is a constant up and down struggle. One that fellow Blogger Lauren knows all so well.

As strong of a wife/mother and woman I feel I am, often I question my worth. Do I really…
