Many of us have heard our grandparents and elders say, “God will keep you if you want to be kept.” Like myself, I pray you live long enough to experience this for yourself. But we, (and in “we” I am included and may put myself at the forefront), often neglect to ask ourselves “how are we keeping God?”God is faithful,…
In life, we often find ourselves waiting for an apology that we feel we deserve. We hold onto the hope that the person who wronged us will come to their senses, realize their mistake, and offer a heartfelt apology. But what if that apology never comes? What if the person never acknowledges the pain they caused?"You could be a lot…
Happy Monday & queue the tears (you see why in a minute)!Be careful what you affirm over your life; you will get it! #wordshavepowerI just wrapped up a podcast interview that drops on Friday.

***Don’t forget to grab my free gift at the end.***Happy New Year! The air is filled with anticipation and the promise of fresh beginnings. It's that time when resolutions are made, vision boards are crafted, affirmations are recited, and heartfelt prayers are sent out into the universe.

Season's Greetings to you all, but... Can I just say your girl is feeling FABULOUS?!! What I'm about to announce is proof positive of the importance of prioritizing yourself first and then serving second. I woke up this morning energized, (coffee is still brewing, lol), rested, and fueled up. I checked the scale which has been going down every day…
Today I have mixed emotions. I am so happy for all the amazing things happening in my life right now, especially things coming to fruition that have been years in the making. At the same time, my heart is heavy and grieves. As a child abuse survivor who grew up in a family generationally plagued by mental illness, I know…
This Thanksgiving hits differently for various reasons. I can focus on the loved ones that are gone, including one in particular, making this our first Thanksgiving without her. I can focus on perceived losses and goals not yet fulfilled. But what really made me cry this morning... Over the past few days, all I can think about is the surgeon…
Yes, some people can take off from their business, and you hear nothing from them. I am not such a person, lol.Although I am on a much-needed break, I would never leave without providing some communication from me, even if it is prescheduled. I care about you and your success. And, this Monday, it is imperative that I address something…
If I can be transparent, the month of September is challenging for me. In particular, September is Suicide Awareness/Prevention Month, a time that always makes me reflect on my painful, abusive past.I am grateful that I am alive today, but as a survivor of child abuse, from age 5 to 17, when the abuse stopped when my father died, I…
