  • Hey Friends — Fall in August? 🍂

    Hey everyone!
    Is it just me, or has the weather been giving us fall vibes in the middle of August? The breezy mornings, cozy evenings… I’m not mad at it. The real question is — are you ready for sweater season to show up early?

    Speaking of ready — I have something you might want to jump on right now…
    📢 My 48-Hour Brand Spotlight Deal is LIVE!
    If you’re a business owner, author, or creative and want your brand featured on my blog, socials, and in my next issue of Where It Begins magazine, this is your moment. Limited spots, so let’s make it happen before the clock runs out.

    📚 For My Poetry Lovers & Bookworms

    I recently released my own poetry book — something straight from my heart to yours. If you enjoy words that move you, inspire you, or make you pause, make sure to check it out.

    And because I’m always reading, here’s a little book talk for you:

    Between Two Kingdoms by Suleika Jaouad
    This one… whew. Inspiring, eye-opening, and beautifully written. It made me reflect on life, the importance of travel, and memories of my mom. My prayers go out to anyone going through cancer right now — this book is a gentle reminder of hope and resilience.

    Can’t Get Enough by Kennedy Ryan
    I’ve loved every book I’ve read from Kennedy Ryan, and this one is no different. She’s actually based in Atlanta, so I’m definitely going to try to connect with her for an interview! This book reminded me to be bold, speak my mind, follow my heart, and let love in. Life is short — treasure your loved ones while you can.

    A. If you can work hard, long hours, little sleep, sick and still get to your job and perform to get a raise and the end of the year. You can put in that same work to build your own Empire.

  • Happy New Year!

    Happy New Year

    It’s 2023. I hope you are ready for this year. I always try to do better than what I did last year. I check off the goals I completed and make new ones each time to level up. 2022 was good and I know 2023 is going to get better. I accomplished a lot and am proud of myself. Time to level up some more and come out of my elements. Here are some of the goals I want to accomplish this year:

     

    ·         Gift Boxes

    ·         Advertisements

    ·         Subscriber packages

    ·         Blogging

    ·         Yoga, meditation

    ·         More outing

    ·         Women’s group

    ·         Book club group

    ·         Non-profit

    ·         Magazine

    ·         Partnerships and Collaborations

    ·         Travel More

    ·         Bucket List

    These are the things I am focusing on this year and building and branding. Excited to see what this is going to be like this year, but I am very passionate about it. I don’t like the new year new me saying. I like the brand and growing saying. Be better each year each day.  I have a lot to keep me busy and get a lot of content. So, follow me and keep up with the movement. There’s a lot to come. Very thankful for everyone and the journey I have been on. I worked on myself spiritually and in a lot of other ways. I learned more about the things I am into and the things I want to do.

    I wish everyone a great 2023 and hope that this year will be the best year yet. Set your goals and complete them.  If you need an accountable partner let me know. Let’s motivate and support one another. Let’s get it.

    Happy New Year!
