*If you love me, set me free (in my Leela James voice)* I said I was gonna keep my business to myself this year. I’ve been living my life out loud, since 2012, and I just needed some privacy. I’m changing and just wanna nurture my growth without providing updates. My healing was out loud. I want my growth to be more in private. I gave y’all stories of my life. Often times, I over shared. Then, I learned the importance of being transparent but not over sharing, while realizing…

Kobe and Gianna Bryant Celebration of Life Memorial . There are just not enough words to describe the beautiful and touching tribute to Kobe and Gianna Bryant.

Kicking the Valentine’s Day Blues was the ultimate game changer and set the tone for how I approached love demonstrations.

February is a month for celebrating black history and love. You couldn’t ask for a better duo. Some will argue that the month has become so commercialized. I counter that by emphasizing how important it is to celebrate in a way that pleases the individual. On that note, there is so much to do during the month of February.

Act like you own the world and that’s exactly how they’ll treat you. Underground TV Series As the end of the year draws near, I’m noticing that I’m not seeing any New Year’s Resolution posts, and I am surprised.

They tally up all of their sorrows and joys, and it seems as if there is always more sorrows, and the moments of joy are fleeting like a thief in…
