On Twitter, someone asked, āWhen do we stop saying Happy New Year?ā My response, āSince God rested on Day 7, the year is no longer new on Day 8.ā As I write this, it is January 6, 2021. Check the news from this day. Itās crazy. But I digress. Last year, I was recovering from what I am now convinced was a bout of Covid-19 when I posted my Happy New Year message on January 15. I did not discuss myā¦

Working on a Goal? Be Shameless
Can I let you in on a little secret? As a creative, I often feel judged by others for being made this way. While I am ambitious in my daily work effortsāpublic relations is a real job, I carry a sense of shame as I pursue what I want as a writer and content creator. Writing is a crucial part of my career and gets my creative juices flowing. I work with amazing people on awesome projects, but theyā¦

Mindful Acquisitions | Getting the Best Return on Your Money, Time, and Energy
One thing Iāve learned over the past month or so is being mindful requires thought. At the end of last year when I selected my word for 2020, I never would have imagined that the intent behind the word might not come to fruition.
I didnāt write a blog post about it but the word I chose isĀ ownership. When it came to me, I thought my husband and I would be buying a new home, finally getting ourā¦

Monday Motivation | You Can Bloom Where You're Planted
Iām a week late writing for this month. But, my sharing my personal goals while my community, the Black community, is actively fighting for social justice seemed trite.
Today, I wanted to share one of my favorite quotes by Alice Walker. Just in case youāre not familiar with her and her work, Walker is most known for penning āThe Color Purpleāā a Pulitzer Prize-winning novel which was turned intoā¦

7 Lessons I Learned by Studying My Mom's Life
Life is filled with lessons.
We learn some lessons as a result of our failures and successes. Some are learned by watching others. Growing up, I didnāt always value the treasure I had in the blessing of my mom. Yes, she spent lots of time with us, sharing her love of baking and having discussions over the delicious biscuits she made several times a week.

He's Hers, Not Yours | God Won't Bless You with Someone Else's Husband
New Blog Post: He's Hers, Not Yours
We often hear about how the side chick is winning. Is she really? Will God bless you with someone elseās husband?
A few years ago, lifestyle blogger LaKesha Womack wrote 10 Lessons Learned While Dating in My 30s. Something I wrote on Facebook inspired Lesson 2:
God is not going to bless me with someone elseās husband. I saw that posted by a friend, Makasha Dorsey, and it really struck a chordā¦

Chocolate Lover
āIāll never cheat!ā Rachele glowered. The ladies around her absently agreed, knowing they had once believed those same words. That was six months ago, before she began to feel stuck, and before the deliciously tempting neighbor moved into the empty rental next door.
Initially, sheād walk by hoping to sneak a peek. The temptation was too much; she had to have a taste. Now a habitual cheater, sheā¦

Hello, you. While one a run, Donna runs into Jacob--a handsome, considerate, man who catches her after she plows into him.
Hello.

Is Yoga for People of Color? Give Yoga, Get Yoga Wants to Make Yoga forĀ All
When you walk into any given yoga studio, 75 percent of the people practicing will be White women. This is one of the reasons why when you search MeetUp, Facebook Groups and other social networks, you will see more and more groups geared towards women of color. It is no shade to White women (pun not intended), just a way to gather for fitness with diversity in the forefront.
