Happy 17th birthday to my baby boy, Mason. The one

Happy 17th birthday to my baby boy, Mason. The one that keeps me on my toes. My side kick, my hugger, my shopping buddy, and my show-me baby. The one that always says thank you and I love you. The one that follows his heart, even if he has to go against what’s popular. The one that knows all his Bible verses and will strategically use them against you when he’s in trouble. And the one that needs a daily reminder that “I don’t want no teachers calling my phone today.”

Keep being your fun and loving self. Keep speaking your mind. Keep believing in all your hopes, dreams and aspirations. And most importantly, keep being a good person.

Mom and Dad love you @masonb120 . Happy Birthday, son.

Yesterday was MLK Day. I spent my day traveling and supporting my son as he played a very competitive game of hockey.

As I watched, I couldn’t help but reflect on what the day means and to think that my son is…

1. The only Black player on the ice.

2. The only Black player in his entire elite club of 120+ male players

3. In his 10 years of playing, he has only ever played with 1 other Black teammate, and he has never had a Black coach.

But yet he’s here!
There was once a time when this would have been unacceptable. But people like Dr. King and another strong gentleman by the name of Willie Eldon O'Ree helped make it possible.

Although hockey has a long way to go - my hope is that this sport will someday be as diverse as football or basketball. My hope is that we normalize allowing our children to TRY a variety of different sports and other experiences, until they settle on what makes them happy vs. limiting them only to what we find to be familiar or easy for us. I’m glad that my son admires @subbanator @kingjames @obj and @tombrady too.

My hope is that somebody’s child sees my son out there and realizes that #hockeyisforeveyone

Thank you, Dr. King.

Happy Founders’ Day to my lovely sisters of Alph

Happy Founders’ Day to my lovely sisters of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated . Today we celebrate 114 years and counting as the first Black Greek-letter sorority. #aka1908 .

From the living room - to the board room - to the White House - We make things happen. #alphakappaalpha #skeewee #akafoundersday #aka

#mcm❤️ . Happy Birthday to my husband, David. Like fine wine - he keeps getting better with time. I pray God continues to bless him with many, many more of the happiest of birthdays. David doesn’t have any social media, but if you want to wish him a happy birthday in my comments, I’ll make sure he sees it.

Who dis? Yes, I’ve started a new hair journey. As a busy, career woman who is always on the move, my hair had become a constant source of stress and anxiety. I found that everything from my much needed exercise to my Zoom presentations, date nights, and everything in between, had started to revolve around my hair. So, I decided to remove that from the equation by locking it.

I’m not going to lie - it’s a real struggle over here as I’m waiting on these #babylocs to mature. It’s hard for a person like me to not be in control (shout-out to my #aries peeps).

I plan to start sharing my journey. It’s only been one week so far and there is absolutely nothing at all to see (and to keep it 💯 I ain’t up for no videos just yet). So…. I’m over here documenting, with plans to take you on #mylocjourney with me (I’m coming for you #Youtube). But until then, here’s a little bit of info:

👉 These are #sisterlocks

👉 It took 13 hours all in one day.

👉 My natural hair was in a tapered cut, so I started with 2-3 inches of hair on the sides and 4-5 on the top.

👉 I chose sisterlocks over #microlocs after a professional and very thorough consultation with @daninicole37 . She knows errrrthang about locs (and I had a thousand questions). She explained that while sisterlocks are more expensive, it would be a good option based on MY hair type, MY profession(s), how I prefer to style MY hair, the look I’m going for as MY #hairgoals and additional information that is specific to ME.

👉 Yes, I do know how many #locs I have. My certified sisterlocks loctician was nice enough to count them. I’ll save that number for later. Perhaps you can guess for a prize?

I’m new to this. So, I need all my #loc’d queens to comment below with any products or advice you have for someone who is just starting their #locjourney. And if you have questions for me - post those in comments too.

At the beginning of each year I like to take time

At the beginning of each year I like to take time to step away from social media, and all other distractions, so I can reflect on the year.

Following this reflection, I look forward to manifesting what I want the coming year to look like for me. I plan this out in the form of my yearly #transformationmap where I set realistic and smart goals, and outline them in the form of quarterly milestones. I’ve done this for six areas of my life where I know I need growth and improvement. I’ve used this concept for at least a decade and it has not failed me yet.

This year, for the first time, I’ll also create a #visionboard all based on what I’m #manifesting . If you want to join me virtually for this exercise, shoot me a DM.

I never refer to what I manifest, or my goals, as new year’s resolutions because I personally believe that we should be constantly working towards our #purpose all year around.

Any-who… I’ve finished my 2022 Transformation Map and I’m all set and ready to go.

What about you? How do you go about manifesting abundance in your life and setting goals? Share in comments.
