Hell has no fury…

Happy Friday! I hope this week was DA BOMB for you as it was for me! ???‍♀️??‍♀️ Okay so, last Sunday, something remarkable happened. At the 2018 Golden Globe Awards, the women and men in attendance wore black,  and the legendary Oprah Winfrey tailored her PHENOMENAL acceptance speech (for the Cecil B. DeMille Award for Lifetime Achievement) in solidarity and support of the #MeToo Movement. For those who do not know, The #MeToo Movement is a movement to support survivors and end sexual violence. Victims have been asked to put up the status “Me Too” to expose … [Read more...]

UnStuck

*Clears throat and channels Ne-yo* My sexy loves... ? Hi Everybody! I hope all is well. Okay so, it’s about that time of the year again. You know, that not-always-so-great time when you realize the year is almost over and you can’t seem to account for where the time went.

You heard everyone’s olowogbogboro/life changing testimony but are yet to give yours. You lost a job. You hustled endlessly and are yet to reap the rewards. Buried … [Read more...]

Pick Up the Pieces

In fact, I've started a number of posts that have gone nowhere. Think I'm lying? See below: "Okay so last week, I was scrolling through my IG timeline when I came across a post from Issa Rae. It was a photo of her and in the caption she wrote "I remember being an awkward black girl in high school, reading the pages of my favorite magazines, casually flipping through @COVERGIRL ads, singing their slogan in my … [Read more...]

100!

August 1, 2017 · 12 Comments

Happy August 2017 My Darlings! How have you all been? I trust you've been making the most out of life.? Okay so, when it dawned on me that the next post I put out would be my 100th blog post, it boggled my mind! I wanted to make it count so I didn't put out just anything. After asking friends and family for advice and coming up with nothing that stuck, I prayed to God to give me a story worthwhile.... My God is real because Mehn did He come through for His baby girl! Early 2014, one of the managers at my last job then called me a glorified secretary. … [Read more...]
