It’s time to prepare. Get your pens and notepads ready!
Over the last 16 months, we’ve all had to shift and learn to cope with the new ways of life. The whole world stopped and at times it feels like we could possibly be moving towards a dystopian future like the ones we’ve only seen in the movies or read about in novels. And now, it seems as if we may be headed back into lockdown. God stopped time once, possibly so we could reflec...

Black women are constantly being told what to do, what we could do, should do, etc…. Even what respect looks like. We have always had to balance and break the chains that have tried to keep us bound. Respectability politics used to be one of the laws of survival for black people. Our pain aversion to healing, makes moving past desired acceptance rather difficult. Every aspect of our lives seems to be a "thing."

We are constantly hearing the words "self care," but what does that truly entail? During these "self care" sessions our nails and hair may look beautiful (which is great, don't get us wrong), but our souls are being neglected. Our souls are crying out for rest, but we keep not answering the call. We are conditioned to keep moving, keep pushing, don't stop or be considered lazy from a young age. We as black people have a legacy of h...

Who sets the standard of beauty?
We as black women have always been told & shown that we aren't considered to be the standard of beauty, yet other women strive and pay for ways to achieve our body types and assets. We are all built the way we are for a reason. We are fearfully and wonderfully made. God built your body perfectly for a purpose. With lip injections, butt implants, and waist shapers, many are striving to fix something...

We all have a role to play in this game of life. During this past year, with everything we've known shifting and changing, we have had to adapt and find new strengths. Sometimes, in order to learn and harness our new skills we must take advice from the wise words of others. Other times, words of the past can help us to unearth the pain in our history to propel us into our future, healed and whole. We must form authentic connection...

What if I told you that children come into this world knowing what they like and where they're destined to go. We as parents try to conform them and make them fit into our world, in the here and now. Godly parents must walk the line of honoring the authenticity that God put into our children, while preparing and protecting His children to make it to their destiny. God must be our co-parent.

We dig deep to honestly share our stories of putting on our armor to deal with the oppression that surrounds us. In our personal spaces, as well as professional, we constantly deflect or combat blows and hits as they come from every angle, while trying to maintain our identity and humanity. Every time we show up, we must show up in ways that are not understood by all because we are defying the ways the world has interpreted us as b...

We tune in weekly. We invite them into our homes. We may even be addicted to being voyeurs of their lives. We shout our opinions at the television, we get emotionally involved, and even choose sides. Housewives From Orange County to ATL, Married to Medicine, Love & Hip Hop,… They’re the reality stars we love to hate.
