I take being “Different” as a compliment
…this was one quote I saw so much growing up. The older I got, the more weight it carried. A couple years ago, I found out my personality type is ENFJ (2-3% of population) and it makes sense as to why I often felt misunderstood. At 8 years old, My family and I moved to…
Should I be panicking??
First and foremost, Happy Black History Month! Secondly, it’s been a minute since I last blogged on here and that’ll change this year-I promise 🙂 Let’s get to it! A few short months ago, a new milestone came for me and I entered a new decade of life. Usually around this time, most people I’ve…
How are YOU celebrating?
*A reminder to stop and remember you have it better than you realize Since a number of people will be celebrating this upcoming weekend, what better way to write about another way to celebrate, huh? Not long ago, I was randomly asked in the middle of a conversation “Are you celebrating?” My response was “with…
It’s REALLY okay to start over!
“Don’t be afraid to start over again. this time you’re not starting from scratch, you’re starting from experience.” -Unknown I remember last summer feeling like I regressed by coming back to Memphis, even though I knew it was temporary. The goal was to work on the series “Bluff City Law” and go from there. Well…let’s…
Case of the EX
Written: February 10, 2018 Ever been told “You and your ex should get back together! You guys were perfect for each other!!” PAUSE. Nobody wants to constantly be reminded of their ex.

Savoring EVERY Hardship
Written: January 18, 2018 It’s been 7 months so far, and I’m convinced every day that I AM where I need to be. Is every day perfect? Not even close. However, all of the rough times and trials I’ve faced have pruned me into a person that even my family and closest friends wouldn’t recognize!…
Guess who won’t be “Netflix and Chilling”?
Written: February 14, 2019 It’s not as simple as you may think 🙂 Another year, single, on Valentine’s Day. Okay let me stop overreacting; it’s only the second year in a row for me. And this time I’m in a new city, so there’s no need to complain. However, in regards to relationships, it’s been…
I’ve become a much better customer (and PERSON) after working in restaurants
Written: April 25, 2018 *This was written with food service workers in mind* I remember being at In-N-Out waiting on my to-go order, there was a lady who picks up her and her son’s food, then turns around and asks me “didn’t you order before us? I would tell them you haven’t gotten your food…
You don’t have to get STUCK
I originally moved to LA in June 2017. It was great! Full of ups and downs that helped me to grow. I stayed for 1.5 years before visiting my parents for NYE, or at least that was the plan… ..I looked up and Super Bowl 52 was around the corner. It was in Atlanta, which…
