There’s a lot of body positivity posts, messages, and even advertising campaigns that have been heavily circulated recently. It’s a topic of conversation among my friends, and hopefully yours as well. That doesn’t mean to take satisfaction in being unhealthy, but be okay in your own skin. From a very young age, women are bombarded […]

Hair Talk (part 2)
I wrote about the struggles with losing my hair a few months ago. I also shared that I never liked my hair. It’s always been a weird color with a wavy/curly pattern and does it’s own thing no matter how much I try to tame it. Ironically, losing it made me really appreciate it. I […]
Experiencing Live Entertainment
For as long as I can remember, I’ve wanted to experience and enjoy all kinds of different concerts, shows, and other live entertainment. I love the beauty of watching people showcase their talents and passions. Many years ago I realized the cost of live entertainment wasn’t really realistic with the way my life was going. […]
Let’s Talk Hair
How important is your hair? I’ve never liked mine. It’s unmanageable, does whatever it wants, is wavy/curly, thin but frizzy, and a weird golden/reddish color that changes whenever it wants to. I seriously used to wish I had straight, blonde hair like many of my peers. I was never allowed to dye it, either. Yet, […]

The Truth Is…
The truth is, my health is not exactly where I’d like it to be. In fact, not even close. I’ve shared how I made some major lifestyle changes a few years ago that resulted in better health (and weight loss). When I began the journey of blogging and openly sharing my life in this way, […]
An Unexpected Adventure
As I’m sure you know by now, riding (motorcycles) is one of my greatest hobbies/passions. There is an entire community of people across different races, backgrounds, genders, lifestyles, etc. who share a certain bond because of riding. I’ve been blessed to meet so very many people through this passion. One woman I’ve had the pleasure […]
A Painting for a Special Lady
With things opening up and people feeling more secure, I’ve been able to participate in a few ladies nights and resume some social activity that used to seem completely normal. I even organized a ladies night recently. My Aunt’s 70th birthday was coming up and I knew I wanted to paint her a Betty Boop […]
