Not only did 2020 dispel the viscous rumor that I don't have a green thumb and graciously taught me how to grow all things green, it unveiled the power behind cultivating intentionality, self-love and solitude. As a self-proclaimed serial monogamous, lover of love, flirt of all flirts and a true dating enthusiast, in 2018 I… Continue reading Cultivating Intentionality, Self-Love + Solitude

Home Sanctuary
During one of my daily check-ins with mom (a digression from our outburst of laughter and news updates from her on R. Kelly and Trump) we got on the topic of how many places I have lived. Not states or countries, but actual residences. The total was well over twenty, maybe 25ish! Last year my… Continue reading Home Sanctuary
I’M CERTIFIED
Being that I am all over the place I could not just sit my butt down and be in stillness during quarantine. Besides staying healthy and sane I had thangs to do, visions to manifest and goals to achieve. Little did I know that my trip to LA in January for a c-suite workshop would… Continue reading I’M CERTIFIED
The Healing Process
Trauma and Loss was about healing. The blog stats were off the charts, some who read were touched, empowered and inspired. Others were concerned, speechless and heartbroken. The day after the post I opened Lion's Roar (my Buddhist magazine) to an article titled, " The Healing Power of the Truth by Eve Ensler. Y'all.....she was… Continue reading The Healing Process
Trauma and Loss
We close shut our eyes and pretend the impact of past experiences are closed chapters, yet residual pain hibernates. Triggers are often little whispers of our suffering. The long-term impact of trauma on our physical being, in most cases, we silence. In an effort to find my way through the suffering I exposed life’s clutter… Continue reading Trauma and Loss
Spring Equinox – Birthday Detox 2020
The spring equinox is the kick off to my favorite time of year, not just because it is the launch of a month long birthday celebration, but because it is my reset season. For the past 3-4 years I have had to manage a two week conference during my birthday/ spring equinox, which pushed my… Continue reading Spring Equinox – Birthday Detox 2020
Mindfulness and My Green Babies
I grew up in a house full of plants, we lived in what felt like a jungle; my mom loved plants! It’s amazing how with each year and each breath I am going back to my roots. My mom has taught me to live fully and with intention and so this newly found love for… Continue reading Mindfulness and My Green Babies
Intentional Love & Loneliness
Talking about loneliness is just as taboo as talking about sex; especially on Valentines Day. To destigmatize loneliness, I will share my intimate dance with this feeling. After decluttering my home I took a magnifying glass to other areas of my life that needed decluttering (people, work, time and mental and physical health) . Deep… Continue reading Intentional Love & Loneliness
Post Decluttering Blessings
My New Home Foot to the peddle and an unquenched desire for substantive change, my 2018 post-Thanksgiving drive back to Atlanta was far from boring. Ears glued to my JB wireless speaker (car too old for Bluetooth capability), I had story time with Marie Kondo's audiobook The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up. I soaked it… Continue reading Post Decluttering Blessings
Fabric Joy
After giving away two large bins of art supplies and probably the equivalent size of three body bags of fabric, I silently and privately mourned the loss. Luckily, in the practice of the KonMari Method™ I kept all things that bring me joy, which in short is two large college size trunks of fabric! Joy..................… Continue reading Fabric Joy
