One of my favorite spaces to hang out probably won’t surprise you. I read – a lot. It’s not shocking to anyone that knows me that I love a good book store. I wish there were more indie bookstores around me. Those are the best. They just have a character to them that you can’t […] Read more…

Music, Boy Crush + the New Year
When I was younger, like many girls, I had a huge crush on New Edition. I had my favorite, the lead singer, Ralph Tresvant. I was crazy about their music, their videos and just them overall. Aside from plastering their picture all over my walls, my cousins and I made up routines to all of […] Read more…
If I Needed A Reason to Be Inspired…
This was not a normal weekend. Not by any stretch of the imagination. I had a million things to do. I had meetings and events to attend. I was swamped with things to get done. All of my things to do and meetings to attend absolutely paled in comparison to what as happening at the […] Read more…
Lupita, Lupita, Lupita
Never would I say that I’m a movie buff. I have never been one to say, “let’s go to the movies”. It used to confuse people at work. They wondered how I could work in entertainment and not be movie crazy. I dunno. Movie ignorance aside, I caught part of the Oscars last night. I […] Read more…

I Speak Life
Last week, I took a walk with my newborn daughter. She was sleepy and super fussy, so we headed outside to walk and get some air. I didn’t even bother to get the stroller. I just held her, in my arms, close to my chest and walked. As we walked, I told her all about […] Read more…
Olympics = Depression?
Did you watch the Olympics? I got caught up in the madness and excitement for a minute and then that crap got depressing! I’m sure that wasn’t the intention but, uh, I had to turn away. Why, you ask? Did you see the bodies on those athletes?! My only option was to turn and catch […] Read more…
Time Keeps on Ticking
Source: Google images There’s this saying I’ve heard before and never gave it much thought. That is, until my mama said it. She said “I have more time behind me than I have in front of me.” Not exactly something I want to think about when it comes to my mom. Since the day she […] Read more…
