Please ignore the tapping in the background. We have a lot of construction going on around here, and apparently my microphone wanted to make sure you heard it too. 😂

Today I had the opportunity to film a TV show, and it reminded me just how much I love community, connection, and sharing this work with all of you.

So I’m inviting you to join me for What’s Right With Life: 31 Days to a New Perspective.

31 days to look at life a little differently, find more of what’s right, and give ourselves something to look forward to.

I can’t wait to start this journey with you. ❤️

This time last year…

I had no idea that the very next day my entire life was going to change.

Today I went back and watched the 11-minute video I recorded that day at Macy’s. It was the last time I publicly showed up for work, community and Essence before life took a completely different turn.

Watching it a year later, something I said stopped me in my tracks.

Maybe I needed to hear my own words again.

And somewhere in the middle of watching it, I thought…

Why not now?

We were going to do this last year and life had other plans. So this year, we’re doing it.

31 Days to a New Perspective starts October 14.

Nothing is officially set up yet. 😂 This is genuinely me being in the moment, sharing something from this time last year and deciding, why not?

I’m still getting all of the tech and details together, so bear with me. But I did manage to get the waitlist up!

If you’re thinking, “I’m in,” add your name here:

And go over to my YouTube channel to watch the full video from this time last year. There may be something in it that you need to hear today, too. ❤️

Have a blessed day, and cherish the moments with the people and animals you love. They truly are a gift. Macy's Macy's

Just in case…Everyone, stay safe. Big day tomorrow. It’s official. Signed at 6:00am. It was even on TV. Mine really turned blue. Don't forget that tomorrow marks the start of the new Facebook rule (also known as Meta), which allows them to use your photos. Don't forget the deadline is today!!!
According to the show 60 Minutes:
Just in case you missed it: a lawyer advised us to post this. The violation of privacy can be punished by law. NOTE: Facebook Meta is now a public entity. Every member must post a note like this. If you do not publish a statement at least once, it will be technically understood that you are allowing the use of your photos, as well as the information contained in your profile status updates.
I HEREBY DECLARE THAT I DO NOT GIVE MY PERMISSION FOR FACEBOOK OR META TO USE ANY OF MY PERSONAL DATA.

🎙️ New Podcast Episode is Live!

I had the joy of sitting down with my dear friend Kate Butler for a powerful conversation about writing, visibility, and why your story truly matters.

Kate’s wisdom is a reminder that every one of us has a voice that can inspire, heal, and create change. I can’t wait for you to listen in and feel the spark of what’s possible when you share your own story.

Available now on YouTube for my visual friends and on all podcast platforms

Running on Empty?
I used to live life at full speed — always on, always giving, always moving. Breathwork taught me how to slow down, reset, and actually relax. Now it’s my secret to recharging instead of burning out.

If your mind won’t stop racing or your body feels stuck in overdrive, this class is for you. Come breathe, release, and discover what it feels like to finally switch gears.
