Story Time…

I’m about to talk about what I don’t usually talk about because like most things, if you’re not actually “that person, working in that profession, or on that job” you tend not to relate, understand, or empathize with what and how people feel about certain things. My blog, however, is a form of therapy forContinue reading “Story Time…”

I Told You My Mental Matters

Yesterday was crazy. Let me preface this with I’ve been helping my oldest son because he’s going through some life changes. The world can be a big bowl of mess sometimes especially for Black men. I’m very cognizant of that and because of this I am careful with what I say and how I showContinue reading “I Told You My Mental Matters”

When You’re The One

I know I’m chosen and I’ve known that for a long time now. Sometimes it’s easy and other times it’s hard. I’ve gotten used to being people’s “person.” I used to wonder why and say I’m nobody special. I don’t see why people look up to me. Well guess what I can see exactly whyContinue reading “When You’re The One”

From Nurse to Entrepreneur: Embracing God’s Direction for a New Path

I have been feeling, or my body has been trying to tell me something. I recently talked with God about what He was trying to teach or tell me.

Leaving the Bedside

I don’t know about anyone else, but being a bedside nurse isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Yes, I will admit that most of us make it look flawless or, at minimum like we’re true superheroes wearing a cape all the time. If only, right? I get it because I prepare for my exitContinue reading “Leaving the Bedside”

Go With The Flow

Hey guys, so I have been pondering many thoughts about when we feel stressed, emotional, bewildered, and/or overwhelmed. Taking care of our physical, mental, and spiritual selves requires us to accept what we feel and not try to always be strong and indestructible. I had a conversation today about how I’ve been beside myself withContinue reading “Go With The Flow”

The Importance of “Presence and Touch”

I thought I’d take a moment to stop and talk about how important it is to have a “presence and touch.” Many times we go about our day, and we take for granted our interactions with others. It’s just another day, another hug, another kiss, another look into someone’s eyes until it isn’t. I amContinue reading “The Importance of “Presence and Touch””

Day 17 Do You Know What I Mean?

Halfway through and still pumping. I wanted someone else to do my workout for me today. Lord knows I didn’t feel up to it at all. But guess who bust it out? Me, that’s who, lol. This one had some stuff called burpees, and honey, let me tell you what. I didn’t do burpees; IContinue reading “Day 17 Do You Know What I Mean?”

Missed Me Friday, Day 15?

Yes, I didn’t post Friday for day 15 because I was too tired. Now, I had every intention, but when my head hit the pillow, I didn’t even remember falling asleep. It’s funny how doing a lot and doing a little can have the same outcome. I mean, I can rest all day Saturday andContinue reading “Missed Me Friday, Day 15?”
