Being Present
Yesterday I had the privilege of being on a Black Entrepreneur Panel for the kids at Potomac Job Corps for Black History Month! It is always a pleasure to share my story in business and inspiring the youth to pursue their dreams and aspirations.
Trials and Tribulations
This passed week was a literal week from Hell. Anything that could go wrong did, and with each L came a lesson right along with it.
Geordan dropped a Gem
Yesterday as I’m scrolling through social media trying to still make sense of Kobe’s death, life, and just personal shit we all go through, I stumbled upon Geordan’s post on relationships and how challenging it is to find someone who speaks your love language.
Fear is stronger than Love
TRUST NO BODY!
The harsh reality is you are your best asset and the only person who truly has your back in any situation. Love does not equate to the fear people have of being wrong, the fear of losing out, even the fear of trusting you as well. Don’t ever put yourself in position to be at the mercy of someone else’s loyalty or love.
Proper Support!
Insubordination The Podcast hosted by Zel(@HailZel) and Bre(_Breon the beat) Two class clowns turned educators come together to discuss life, pop culture, trending topics and more! This week’s episode featuring @YouKnowPolo of Great Energy Group, LittyinTheCity, and Dream Village talks about the proper way to support, ways we as a collective can support our friends better, and the impact of supporting our friends in our community.
Detoxing
The older I get the more I realize who I was when I was younger is now much more complicated and needs much more attention and appreciation from not just others but from myself as well. Becoming more self conscious and a student of my own persona and figuring out why I am the way I am is something I have recently begun to focus on.
Happy Birthday MLK!
In 2020 we are still hanging on to your dream and fighting the good fight against racism, social injustice, and civil rights for all people of the world. Not many know the history of our nation and the atrocities you fought to the death to bring to light and to bring change to.
Passion and Purpose
Once I found my passion in fashion I started my business, but once I began to use my brand in helping others and teaching kids and working within my community, I found my purpose. The energy and positive vibrations from working with some foster kids and local teens this weekend was extraordinary.
Food for Thought
Anything that god has for me, is for me. No man or woman can block or take that from me. Time is a human construct that can confuse and mislead you on your own personal journey thinking you’re missing out or that someones blessing should be yours. Life is about building and creating, not following a timeline or someone else’s construct of what success is.
All the Smoke
Stephen Jackson and Matt Barnes’ podcast all the smoke has become one of my favorite podcast in the past year or so. Only into their 11th episode fairly new I think it has the potential to grow into that breakfast club, Joe Budden type podcast level.
If it’s up then it’s up with us!
My first week back on social media has been eventful to say the least.
Gratitude
First and foremost I want to express my gratitude to my family and my mom especially! Not only is she the strongest person I know but also the most positive influence in my life and for that I thank you immensely!
Message!
No matter what you been through, no matter how down you feel, no matter how bad you’ve messed up, you still have value! You can still get out of any negative situation! You are still worthy!
Consistency!
My biggest focus right now is staying consistent. Choosing to do the same routine and building a lifestyle around working hard for my goals and business. This past month has been nothing but consistency!
10 years, 10 ten toes down!
Today is one of my oldest and closest friends Birthday’s. My good man Terrance turns 31 today! We went from going to Middle school together and then College at Morgan as well. Every single week was a lituation and we really ran the streets doing whatever we wanted.
Happy Birthday Nana!
Outside of immediate family most don’t know how close me and my great grandmother were. From the time I was born til January 6th 2001, when she passed at the age of 91 years old she was there everyday and she remains by my side.
Keeping the Same Energy
After a month of focusing on my own personal growth and solitude from social media, friends, and distractions I have found peace and a certain calmness in not bothering people and not letting them bother me. I’ve become more consistent with my business and clientele as well as crushing personal goals in just a month’s time that I thought were farfetched and unattainable.

Infomercials
Getting thru the daily bullshit can be a task and I often find myself looking thru old video clips to find inspiration. Clips I relate to, clips I think could help others, and just clips that speak to me personally.
