I know what it’s like to be single on Valentine’s Day and for some singles, this can be a day of avoiding social media, eye-rolling at the glimpse of lovey-dovey, over sharing posts you accidentally see online and wondering when you’ll find love. This is not to say that all singles dread Valentine’s Day. I know quite a few people who are single by choice and absolutely love it! Continue reading...

It brings my heart great joy to see black women embracing their blackness, natural hair, distinctive features and beautiful brown bodies! You should be proud of your melanin. When I was younger I didn't want a thing to do with my melanin. I equated beauty with light skin, long hair, pretty eyes and good hair (come on somebody, what the hell is good hair?) Continue reading...

What do you like about men? Don’t tell me anything about their physical nature. What do you like about men? I’m not asking you what type of man you like. Please don’t tell me that he has to be 6’2” and he has to have a good credit score. Continue reading here...

How many times did I respond to the morning light with a first thought of what is not going right in my life. Only to follow up with a foreboding of events to occur during the course of the day. How many times did I cling to a situation or person with desperation even when my inner knowing gave me clear signals that the person or situation was not good?

Where has the time gone? It feels like just yesterday I was writing last year's birthday post 25 Life Lessons for 25 Years + My First Tattoo. The past year has been by far the most monumental year of my life. I got married 4 months ago, moved to California shortly after and Continue reading here...
