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!

Living in Unapologetic Intention
When was the last time you did something unapologetically for yourself? I’m not talking about doing something for yourself by happenstance, or because it was an occasion; but just on a random Tuesday, you did something simply for yourself because you’re entitled to do just that? Or maybe, you just wanted to sit around and…
#50Days50Questions: Happy is….
What and who makes me happy? My daughter’s laughter. My husband’s unconditional love and support. My mother’s tough love. My sister’s strength and faith. My grandmother’s presence.

Self-Care Sunday: Free for All!
Today I didn’t have a specific highlight for Self-Care Sunday, but I wanted to reflect on how hectic my week has been and how important self-care will be for me today. I’ve had stress, tension and all kinds of emotions coming at me from every direction this week, and it’s caused me to neglect some…

Self-Care Sunday Highlight: Laughter
The age-old quote says “laughter is good for the soul”, and I couldn’t agree more. Ask yourself, when is the last time you laughed? When is the last time something made you giggle uncontrollably. Also, ask yourself how you felt after you had a good, hearty laugh. Whenever I laugh, it’s like medicine to numb…
Self-Care Sunday Highlight: Music
This week’s highlight for self-care is one of my personal favorites: music. Photo Cred: Google Images Music is one of the most therapeutic things I utilize in my day-to-day life. I can pretty much listen to any type of music, as long as it gives me good feeling vibes. I have always loved music and…
Hello, 2017
2017 began with me being very #CarefreeBlackGirl and confident in myself. I pray that 2017 continues to allow me to do more of this; be happy, have fun, be confident and wear more cute shoes…lol. Happy New Year!
Celebrating the Journey: 2016 Recap
I think we can all agree that for the most part, 2016 had some pretty rough patches, lol. The important thing is I came out of it with my health and sanity in tact; so first, let’s toast to that! As I prepare to close out this year, I am sitting back and reminiscing on…
The Christmas Tag!!!
“Chestnuts roasting, on an open fire……” 🙂 So, today I’m feeling real holly and jolly today (possibly because of the Christmas party we are having at work today). As an extension of my holiday cheer, I am going to do the Christmas tag for you all! I will have the questions down at the bottom…
