We Need a Leader

I woke up to a message from my friend that struck me. She said, "What I feel the whole BLM is missing is that leader to speak for us. We don't have a MLK or a Malcom X right now." Her comment made me think about leadership in 2020. In the midst of Black Lives Matter, Covid, politics, global economic…

How to Overcome Procrastinating on your Dreams

I admit it. I've been a huge procrastinator as of late. I've gone through pretty much every decent movie in my collection and cleaned the house more times than necessary over the past couple of weeks.

6 Months: Fresh Start

I wrote each post for me and hoped that someone else might read it or even better, gleam something from my observations and carry it into their daily life.

Day 95: Puzzle Pieces

I spoke with a friend the other day, and she said something quite poignant: "I've been so concerned about the missing puzzle piece in my life, that I forgot to pay attention to whether it fit or not." How often do we settle? Whether it's career, relationships, a house, a car, a school, or even a vacation, how often do…
