We often spend the month of February anticipating Valentine’s Day. Whether it is spending time with your significant other, a special night with your girls, or the idea of that romantic proposal. Society has made Valentine’s a day that men are supposed to cater to their girlfriends, wives, or other titles 😁. I want each of us to celebrate how…
Each year many of us create a list of resolutions or goals that we’d like to achieve. Typically within the first month of the year, we find ourselves slacking off or are simply uninspired. I really want us (I’m in this with you) to conquer our goals this year. I’ve created this new approach and I hope that you find…
Here’s to new beginnings… As we are heading into the first full week of December, I can’t help but find myself in a very reflective state. It’s no secret, I have been away from social media for the last 6+ months. Without warning, I literally stopped logging on. I thought that I would shake ” this feeling” in a few…
The pressure of the “grind” or the “work hard” mentality can really take a toll on you. Many of us are still working virtually and continuing to figure out how to navigate through our day-to-day functions. I’m still trying to create a practical and productive routine for myself. I realized that I wasn’t giving myself the appropriate time to emotionally…
What a blessing it is to be on this side of 2020! Ahhhh( as I sip my turmeric and ginger tea). A new month brings on new energy, eagerness to achieve goals and optimism towards the unknown. We usually start a new year, a new month, and a new week, the same way. We are pumped and ready to “be…
On average, I run about two to three days out of a week. Since I moved back to Atlanta, I have been trying to explore new running routes. I prefer running outdoors because running on a treadmill makes me feel like I’m not going anywhere; my mind thinks that I’m not being as productive. The challenges with outdoor running are…
Let’s talk about professional relationships and profitable networking. I moved to DC about 3 years ago. I was starting a new job and I didn’t know many people in the area. I attended a lot of social networking events to try to get out and simply meet new people. I was very clear with the type of people that I…
I spent the first half of my twenties being anxious about being married and having a family. When I turned 25, I felt like I let myself down (like I have control over being married. lol) I spent the last 5 years trying to imagine life never being married. I can not tell you where this idea that I won’t…
The new year doesn’t always call for you to start over or incorporating new things. The new year can be seen as extended grace! The time to continue working towards your goals. Consider some of your 2019 goals and plans. Were they achieved? If they were, that’s amazing! If they were not, this is not the time to write them…
Happy first Monday of the last month of the year! If you have been following me for a while, you know that Monday is my favorite day of the week. There is something fresh and exciting about starting a new week. This Monday is more special than the others. This is the first week of the last month of the…
