This is a crazy time — almost surreal in some ways. Between the impact of the pandemic, and the civil protests throughout the world, many of us are struggling. Struggling to understand. To know. To make sense of it. To grasp it all. And to figure it all out. And, it’s hard. Our emotions are […]
Here’s What I Know: It’s okay to be confused. It’s okay to feel unprepared. And uncomfortable. Perhaps afraid. Maybe even second-guessing yourself. But not okay to feel unworthy. Undesirable. Undeserving. Unloved. And, underestimated. Never let anyone make you feel “Un-Anything.” Because you are more than that. And you deserve more than that. If they do, […]
Here’s What I Know: So look… Stop falling for the bullsh**. Stop accepting the bullsh**. You are worth so much more than that. So stop accepting it. Start trusting and believing that you own the power of change. And start to change it. Change how you think first. So you can change how you behave […]
“Do It Afraid” I think that Fear is the number one emotion that holds us back from reaching our fullest potential, pursuing our passion and persevering in our purpose. When we are afraid, we often are paralyzed in our movement and do not allow ourselves to follow the path that God has created just […]
There are times in my life when I am “richer” because I am “poorer.” It’s during these times that I may not have as much money that I want/need that I am reminded that money doesn’t have the power to control who I really am… Although I may not have the economic power, but I […]
Sometimes the only thief in our lives is ourselves. We steal our own joy by poisoning it with negative thoughts. We steal our own happiness by denying our dreams the opportunity to flourish. We steal our ability to love others unconditionally by smothering it with past heartache and pain. And we steal our own faith […]
I remember the first time I got my butt kicked in the 6th grade… The girl said she would “smack the crap out of me” if I didn’t do something I didn’t want to and I told her “well, do it!” And she did. But each time she hit me to the floor I got […]
Every possible Sunday that I can, I go to church to receive the Word of God. For whatever the reason it makes me feel better, stronger, wiser and more “ready” to face the world. This past Sunday was no different and the message I received resonated with my heart and soul, touched my core and […]

Creating life lesson plans that help shape our lives helps us to realize what we need to do in order get what we want. We also learn that if things do not fit the scheme we have created, we must end it. I like to compare it to a teacher creating lesson plans for the […]
So tell me, what have you been “settling” for in your life? Is it your job? Your career? Money? A relationship? Your dreams? Hmmmmm….. We are all guilty of “settling” at some point in our lives and I think we actually settle for something every day. The questions become “What is it?” and “How long […]
You are a Liar, a Cheat, and a Thief! Yes, you are. Why? You are a Liar because you tell yourself that you are going to work hard to accomplish your next dream, and you don’t. You convince yourself that you don’t have enough time to get it done. And that you don’t understand the […]
This morning I decided at the last minute that I wanted to get my hair “done.” I wanted it to be shampooed and styled by a professional because they do such a better job than I can. Knowing that my “regular” stylist would be unavailable at the last minute, I decided to go to my […]
