It’s Friday, my friends. And not just any Friday—it’s one of those Fridays. The kind where your freshly done hair bounces with just a little more flair, your garden is blooming with possibility, and your inner voice is humming, “Yes, queen, we are making moves.” I bought myself […]
Let’s talk about something no one put on their vision board in January: curated nostalgia. It’s not just a vibe. It’s a survival mechanism. And it might just be the most underrated form of self-care we’ve got. You see, I’ve been time-traveling lately—not via DeLorean, but through carefully […]
Today is World Mental Health Awareness Day, and let me just say, it couldn’t come at a better time. Honestly, who else feels like we’re all playing an endless game of “Don’t Drop the Ball”—juggling work, family, and the 12,000 tabs we have open in our minds at […]

For the past year, I have not really taken a day off. I haven’t taken a vacation. Neither have millions upon millions of people. But we each reach a point where maybe we need a day off. For the past few months, people have been repeatedly telling me […]
