Be like me, but not.

I’m a writer because of my mom. She gave me my first journal and she is the one that told me to write stories. However, more than once, my aunts have mentioned with a weighted undertone, “Your mother is the real writer in the family.”

Harlems Awakening Inspiration My Life

Why being transparent matters.

I just like to be transparent for people because transparency helps us all stay a little more present; helps to give ourselves a little more grace, and hopefully provides that lifeline to hold onto when you feel like giving up.

How to have a Messy and Imperfect Thanksgiving

This “holiday” of gratitude has a way of making you feel bad, like you ain’t got nothin’. No money to buy a stupid turkey. No family to go have a Hallmark dinner with. No friends who like you enough to invite you over. This day, and many holidays, while set up to be inclusive, are actually super exclusive. I don’t like that and the reason I don’t like that is because I don’t want others to feel bad. If this is you this year, don’t spiral.
