This question continues to surround me, and has been for the past couple of days; “what are you leaving in 2017?” I believe that we ask ourselves this question every year around this time. As we prepare and plan for a new year, we set our new goals and intentions and manifest new and great…

Live, Laugh, Love; Repeat
Oftentimes, adults get so caught up with our responsibilities, that we forget one of the simplest things to do; laugh. If you ask me, laughter is one of the simplest and rarest forms of enjoying life. I’ve been known to bring laughter into any situation. It’s just in my nautre. I am someone who is…

The Reverse Bucket List
After reading my daily Shine text this morning, it inspired me to make this post because there was an awesome article (that you can check out here) that accompanied it about how “reverse” bucket lists can be just as cool as creating a regular bucket list! While we all get caught up in the excitement…
Proud Accomplishments!
On 10/14, I announced that I finally am starting up my own publishing company, Writing in Color Publishing, LLC. After careful consideration and back and forth about taking the leap of faith into the unknown, I finally did it and I was extremely happy about it. I just wanted to take the moment to relish…
