Controversial Woman Part 2

You are not a slut, you are not a whore, you are not a disgrace, you are worthy, God loves you, I love you, and you should too.

Controversial Woman

We as women are raised in boxes created for people that don’t look like us, with no input from us, and they’re extremely self destructive and demeaning… it’s sickening.

Death...

My father was many things… a saint was not one of them. But in times like this, all I want is to be able to talk to him, hug him. Most of the time I can barely remember what his voice sounded like… or what his face looked like.

Is Enough, Enough?

If you’re not happy, do what you need to do to change that. Take a step in the right direction to rid your life of toxicity and fill it with appreciation and positivity.

Wedding or Marriage?

A lot of what I see are people aiming for the glam and glitz of the “wedding” as though that means the marriage will be successful.

I am a Black Woman

My current emotional state is stuck in a “limbo” where I’m acknowledging my success up to this point, evaluating what/why I can’t seem to take the next step to do whatever it is I’m trying to do, and questioning where I’m going… what exactly am I trying to do?

Black Man, I Love You…

We’ve fallen short in our support of our black men because they know they can’t “feel” freely without being judged or left out high and dry by the one group of people that are supposed to stand by their side and understand as much as possible what they suffer through; black woman.

Black Connection

What are you passing on to the souls that you touch on a day to day basis? What lasting impressions are you leaving? Who are you influencing? Who are you encouraging?

Black Love is Timeless

It’s really amazing how energies work to connect us to new people, things, ideas, and movements. When I began to move into a space of peace and happiness while I was single and becoming more and more comfortable in my skin the way God made me, romance began to sprinkle itself into my purview.

Ships of a New Wave

I’ve been truly blessed with one human in particular that has proven this outrageous assumption, that men and women can’t been just friends, to be wrong.

Chapter 28

Last week I wrote a letter to my dad about all of the emotions I experience without him.

This week, I write a love letter to me…

See It, Speak It, Receive It

God instilled power in our tongues. He hears all of our cries, prayers, needs, desires, and affirmations (both positive and negative).

The Red Plague

I had no idea becoming a woman was going to be so painful for me. I was a late bloomer in many ways, but when it hit me, I definitely without doubt wanted to give it back.

Black People Don't Need Therapy...

Worst myth I’ve EVER heard in my life… black people don’t need therapy. Stop encouraging this nonsense!

Single As a Pringle

Being single is far from a bad thing. Start your self reflection to be ready for your next relationship.

Slim Thick & D.O.P.E.

If you’re on a weight loss journey, I’m here to say keep going! Don’t give up when it gets hard, don’t doubt yourself when you don’t notice results, and remember you didn’t gain the weight over night (somebody wise said that to me once).
