You’re single, and you’ve been single for a while now. You’re outside almost every weekend living your best life. Or you’re like how I once was, stuck in the house just hoping your future mate is going to kick down the door. Both of these are okay. However, the single-season is just that, a season. It’s a temporary time in your life where you work on yourself, your goals, and you prepare for your future mate. It’s also a beautiful time if you choose...
So you watch people on Instagram catch flight every other week and you wonder “How can they afford that trip” or my favorite “She must have a sugar daddy or a scamming boyfriend.” Well, queen, you couldn’t be more wrong. Believe it or not, catching flight is pretty easy. Like most things we desire, want, and purchase in life, it’s all about planning and budgeting. So let’s discuss how to travel on a budget. Listen, I am the queen of traveling on a budget....
When I first found out that I was moving to The DMV in November 2017, I immediately started applying for jobs. I had a job in Chicago that was allowing me to transfer to DC. However, I knew that the income from this job would not allow me to live my best life the way I hoped for in a new city.

You heard the promises, the pipe dreams, the “I’ll do better”. However, you have not seen any changed behavior. Their words...
It’s September 12th, 2000 and the legendary Erykah Badu just dropped a gem titled “Bag Lady”. “Bag lady you gone hurt your back, dragging all them bags like that.” If you never knew before today Ms. Badu was not referring to bags in the literal sense. She was referring to your past traumas, your struggles, and or your demons that you’re fighting every day. You see just like the lady that Ms. Badu was referring to, you too have bags. Your back is so...
So you’re twenty-something now. You’re not too old, but you’re not too young either. You started your career, or you’re in the process of reaching your goals/dreams. You want it all, and then some. However, your career comes first. Right? Or you’re twenty-something now. You’re not too old, and not too young either. You have a partner. They’ve been riding with you for a while now. Your career is in the works. But your love life is in the making. You want it all...
I see you with your big facts, and your “life is amazing it is what it should be” captions. But are you truly good? Does everything online truly align with your behind the scenes action? Ask yourself, am I all talk and no smoke? Lately I have been all talk and no smoke. I’ve been telling everyone about school and my blog.
