I saw someone say not to talk about your accomplishments, and I beg to differ. When someone sees that you can achieve something, it helps them realize they can as well. If we all acted like there’s a secret code or recipe, it makes us look like we don’t want anyone else succeeding. I have…

Crunching Numbers
Continuing to build an audience! Then suddenly, I may have to walk away. As many of you know, my mother has fallen sick. It is up and down. While she is using herbal treatment, which is better than nothing, it’s still hard to watch. I handle most things for her so she can rest. Despite…
Worth Every Penny
What’s the most money you’ve ever spent on a meal? Was it worth it? Right before lockdown in 2020, I went out during restaurant week here in Denver. I really wanted to try Forage, which is an Asian inspired place here. The plates for restaurant week were $25 or $35 a plate. I had (unwanted)…
Sustaining Effort
People don’t like hearing great things take time. Yet, anytime I’ve rushed anything, it simply never worked. While forcing anything also fails you, building over time is way more sustainable. Establishing yourself and remaining consistent are key. I’ve come to realize that no matter how much I say this, it falls on deaf ears. I…
What Works
The short answer is consistency and dedication. The long answer is possibly unraveling for some. I would say you first need to stick with a plan, and execute the plan often. It will take your a good two to three years to see some type of results, but you’ll realize it’s something that needs constant…
Stereotypes Equal Ignorance
I see the realm of ignorance hasn’t broaden. This is a touchy topic, but let’s talk about it. African Americans and other people of color stereotype their own people, constantly. My recent experience is proof many do not want to shed the bullshit. I have namely been classified as “white washed,” because I listen to…
✨My Inner Child✨
She has awoken, fully, I would say. She has healed. She’s being true to herself. She loves where she is in life. She feels safe. It is like my garden – it never truly died, it needs proper care. That is, my imagination. I adorn myself how I see fit, trinkets, orbs, glitter and shine….
Stars in My Eyes
When it comes to my work, I always do my best. Writing reviews sounds easy, but companies and business look for key points that help drive sales. Sometimes, my reviews are not accepted, which is very rarely. Other times, they are showcased on the business page for all to see – and that makes me…
To Embark
The sun sets over Colorado, another day to begin soon. I idle on how I feel, and realize that the older I get, the more others don’t seem to change. I’ll be 39 next year, I’m rolling in accomplishments, yet still silently think on what ifs, and so on. I used to help people often…
Jealousy is a Disease
Right as I was celebrating my good fortune, someone let their true colors show. Let me explain this as clearly as possible. I changed my Facebook page to professional mode. I only have 32 friends. I obtained about 390 followers during the time I made that decision. 110 more would make me eligible for monetizing…
