100+ Posts Later, I’m Still Here
Sorry I didn’t post last week—life got a little loud. But today, I’m writing this with so much gratitude in my heart. I’ve officially written over 100 blog posts here. And I’ve been keeping this journal for over 7 years. There were times I stopped writing. Times I didn’t have…

This Isn’t One of Those Pretty Posts
I’m tired. That’s the truth. And I’m not here to polish it or package it into something motivational today. I’ve been trying. I’ve been applying to jobs—I’m over 44 deep right now. And most of them haven’t even responded. The ones that did? Treated me like I was bothering them…

CEO Era Activated
You’re looking at the CEO. Yes—I started my own business. It’s something I’ve dreamed about for so long. Something I’ve journaled about, prayed over, vision boarded, researched, and worked for. And now it’s real. I did it. I’m officially a CEO! Will it take time to build? Of course. Am…

Weekend Update
This weekend was pretty cool. We did some much needed holiday shopping and bought some more stuff for the house. We had such a good time looking at pricing and decorating our home together. I finally got some of the piercings I’ve been wanting. I will be getting a few…

MY TRUTH.
Hey guys, I just wanted to give you a quick update on what’s been happening. I had to be honest with my job about a coworker and his sexual comments towards me and racial ones that had been going on for months. I had repeatedly talked to him about his…

Corporate America, Pt. 2
I think it’s time I catch you guys up on what’s happened at work. The good news is that finally that manager that’s been causing trouble for me and my coworker has been fired. It’s been crazy though cause it took months of consistent complaints from me and my coworker…

BEGIN AGAIN
I just started writing music again. I never thought it would be this hard. It was even harder having a conversation with my partner explaining why I haven’t played piano in years and why I haven’t felt inspired when I am a creative being. It was painful to explain how…

Corporate America
I almost walked out on my job today… It was easier to not write my blog than to admit how bad things were getting at work. The manager had escalated things so badly HR had gotten involved and I was practically yelling at them because they weren’t listening to what…
