It’s okay to start over.
The Axis of Life
If you consider our lives our “center,” we make all of our decisions around seasons.
How will you maximize 2021?
If you’re reading this, you made it through 2020…Happy New Year. 🎊 Regardless of where you sit in the world, we can all agree that we navigated a deadly pandemic, continued to fight racial injustice, dealt with an intense political climate, endured the effects of horrific forest fires and overall struggled with disturbed peace •Continue reading “How will you maximize 2021?”
20 months.
Being your mother has required me to grow up and do better. I love you Grant. Happy 1st Birthday!
A Black Mother’s Burdens
Vote for my sons.
I am not your Quota
I think we can all agree with the system being flawed. If senior leaders interviewing candidates in Corporate America, only see Black women, in their late twenties with their Bachelor’s Degree, a “fit” for more entry-level support roles, despite over nine years of extensive experience in Corporate America, Houston we have a problem!
Every day is a special occasion

Health with obstacles
It’s not about the obstacles. It’s about how you pivot.
The Gift of (self) Mastery
I mastered self-worth through setting and communicating my expectations.
An uninvited house guest
What do you do when the unexpected shows up in your life?
Mom life, in the midst of a pandemic.
Life is filled with the unexpected but it’s important how we decide to show up.
Tick. Tock.
The gift and curse in the illusion of time.
Prisons and Perspectives
“What is wrong with you?” I’ve been gone a while. I haven’t been writing and went through a period where I wasn’t posting on my socials. For every passing day, the question kept ringing in my head…”what is wrong with you?” I’ve tried this blogging thing too many times to count and haven’t developed aContinue reading “Prisons and Perspectives”
Why Corporate America “seems” transactional
Corporate America and its foundation from infancy is transactional. If you find yourself often feeling like a resource more than a human being it’s because CA has always been setup in a transactional, “what can you do for me” kind of way. I worked at the Walt Disney World Resort and left long before theContinue reading “Why Corporate America “seems” transactional”
