Bloom Where You Are Planted

You’ve heard this quote before, “Bloom where you are planted”.  Confession… Countless times in the past, I’ve complained about some “current situation or circumstance”, just to realize (when it is over) that I needed that experience to launch me to something better down the road.  Can you think of a time that has happened to you?  Hindsight is always 20/20.   The situations we find ourselves in can sometimes plain ole SUCK.  Crappy conditions or even worse crappy people for that matter.  Yet, if we can remember to make the best of whateve ..read more

Put It Down and Lighten Your Load…Welcome to 2022??‍♀️?

As the year 2021 has officially ended, what a perfect time to reflect on what hasn’t been serving us. The phrase “out with the old, and in with the new” comes to mind. In a nutshell, it’s letting go of something that’s not useful and moving forward. This is different from a resolution (which I’ll talk about soon). Ask yourself what have you outgrown?  What is no longer serving you?  What is simply no good for you? Consider all that is weighing you down and decide if it’s worth carrying forward.  We are ALL carrying unbelievable burdens and it’s a balancing a ..read more

Beauty & Death

     It’s understood that we are all going to die.  Just as we are living at this moment, and we did not know the date of our birth before it occurred, the same is as in death, as it will happen to us all…eventually…without a doubt.      We love the journey of life and in the same breath, we all love beauty.  We value it and most of us crave the youthful side of beauty and loathe the aging side.      Aging, in and of itself is not a bad thing.  For example, we find value in many things tha ..read more

Putting Your Best Foot Forward

Images via Unsplash   There had been a lot of commentary about people’s outward appearance in public, specifically comments on women wearing sleep bonnets and scarves on their heads, wearing sleepwear and house shoes out in public. Ordinarily, I don’t discuss things like this on my blog.  I don’t usually make commentary on pop culture or what’s happening in the news, but I believe strongly in putting your best foot forward and taking pride in your appearance.  It really is important, and people ALWAYS notice. Comedian Mo’Nique posted a video in May about some ..read more

Stop Expecting You From Other People Another short note.  Simple and sweet with something to keep in mind. Stop expecting YOU from other people.  It is breaking your heart.   Seriously.  The type of expectations you put on people can often (more times than not) leave you very disappointed. It helps to see people as they are, NOT as you want them to be.  You can’t expect people to behave or respond the way you do.  So, the idea of being good to others or the “Golden Rule – do as to others as you want done unto you” is slightly&nb ..read more

Another short note for you.  Something to keep in mind. In life, you will come across people who are easily intimidated and instead of them addressing THEIR insecurities they may try to get you to change.  Or worse, they will try to make you feel bad about your strengths.  I find it disheartening how people will take their insecurities and put them on another person.  I’ve witnessed it happen to others and I’ve experienced it myself.  It’s not fun .   At the time, when I was experiencing this, I felt like there was really s ..read more

Moving in silence.  What is it and why is it so important? OK. Moving in silence is nothing more than getting yourself together or working on your goals without telling the whole world and broadcasting it.  It’s working on something without announcing your progress, your goal, or your status to others.  It’s just being quiet and doing you and letting your actions speak for you at the appropriate time.  Reasons Why You Should Move In Silence Reason number one – no naysayers.  We all have them in our lives – it could be a family member or even a close friend.  Yes ..read more

Self-Care and Affirmations Are Not a Trend

Self-Care Beyond TikTok and Instagram Videos The I am healthy, I am wealthy challenge.  I won’t lie I had to look it up at first to see what this was all about.  Not too long ago it was everywhere, and I think just about everybody’s heard about it by now.  It was all over TikTok and Instagram a few weeks ago. There were cute, short videos of people singing the catchy chorus. I did not know who this young lady was at first, but the chorus lyrics were powerful, and people were drawn to it – and with good reason. The song is called I Am by Yung Baby Tate ft.

Repeat after me… I’m not ugly, I’m a work in progress and each stage of my life has beauty and value.  There are a lot of women who secretly think they are ugly, unattractive or unworthy.  They don’t show up to the world saying it, but in their private space that is the conversation they are having with themselves in their heads.  If this is you, or someone you know, let’s look at some ways to get out of your own head. Imagine you are in a very fancy neighborhood, and you are driving by and you see a very beautiful home, but it’s under construction.  No one drives by and s ..read more
