We All Need a Little Margin in Our Lives

Do you ever feel like you are being pulled in many different directions? Does it appear that you are busier now more than ever, but you are not sure you are getting the results you want? Do you find it difficult to say no? Do you allow your day to be interrupted by things that could have waited? If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions then you are like me and feel like you need to take better control of life’s demands, so you can focus on what really matters. I though

What Are Your Intentions?

Although we have entered a new year and we have a new administration, we still have some old issues that have followed us into 2021. We are still battling the pandemic and facing economic uncertainty but for many of us, there is now hope that we can try and figure out what is the purpose in all of this? Do you ever feel challenged with why you are here? Do you ever feel stuck and not sure which way to turn? Do you ever feel like you keep bumping your head? Even experiencing d

Black Girl Magic!

This past week we saw “Black Girl Magic” come alive in such a beautiful way. The world witnessed the first woman of color to be sworn in as Vice President and we also witnessed the first National Youth Poet Laureate by the name of Amanda Gorman who made history speaking at the Inauguration for the 46th President of the United States. This young Wordsmith and Change-maker is a cum laude graduate from Harvard University and hails locally from right here in Southern California.

Prejudice, Pandemonium, and Power: Where Does True Patriotism & Peace Really Come In?

America’s Democracy was recently challenged and rocked. As the New York Times quoted, the mob that stormed our Nation’s Capitol, “listened to the president.” Trump called them, “very special people.” He went on to also say, “we love you.” Number 45 has been able to do all he continues to do because the authorities, including his own administration, have not held him to the highest level of accountability that he swore to when he took office. Until now. It appears that many ar

How Do We Get Unstuck?

COVID-19 has caused a lot of us to feel uneasy. Now, with new restrictions once again being placed regarding “stay at home,” especially during the holidays, many of us feel stuck. Do you ever feel stuck and unable to free yourself? You are not alone. What I have learned from analyzing this is that it does not have to be permanent. The possibility to become unstuck is available to all of us if we are patient and are willing to put in the work. We can free ourselves. Just like

Harris in the House!

This Thanksgiving, as families figure out how they can come together to give thanks and celebrate another holiday, we are faced with the horrors of the pandemic; where some families will have an empty seat (literally or virtually) at their tables. We also have an administration that is set on holding back the transition process for the new President-elect and Vice President-elect. Even with all of the tactics the Trump administration has tried to do, we have a strong woman by

Do You Know Your Assignment?

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., said, “The ultimate measure of a man (woman) is not where he (she) stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he (she) stands in times of challenge and controversy.” We are in challenging times and I believe we still have more difficult days ahead. To navigate the challenges we are facing we must be willing to show up and do what we are called to do. Oftentimes we do not know or understand what our assignment in life is causing us

I Can't Breathe!

My heart is heavy and I am tired of the necessity of us having this conversation, but as long as we need to speak on the matter of police officers killing black men with no respect for their lives, we will keep the dialogue going. In some of my circles, I am asked why is there so much attention given to “Black Lives Matter?” Don’t all lives matter? Yes! All lives do matter; however, history has proven that America has not valued the lives of black people, especially black men

Is It Time For You To Do A Spirit Check?

My daughter and I have been together during the “Stay at Home” order due to COVID-19. The other day she suggested that we watch the Michelle Obama documentary, “Becoming: An Intimate Conversation with Michelle Obama” on Netflix and my spirit came alive. I was crying and smiling throughout the entire film. I remember when her book came out and how we all ran to the bookstores to purchase it and when she began to do her national tour we hoped to be one of the lucky people that

Ahmaud Arbery We Speak Your Name!

We all have our personal lanes we travel, but there comes a time when we all must cross over and merge into oncoming traffic if we want things to change. I am grateful to my various colleagues and community partners that allow me to share my thoughts and opinions that will hopefully reach people that follow my work. By now we have all heard about the 25-year-old African American man, Ahmaud Arbery, who was shot down in cold blood by two white men while he was innocently joggi

Time to Invest, Divest & Harvest

We are in changing times. Over the past couple of months experiencing COVID-19, days of isolation, and orders to stay at home have caused us to ponder what does the future really looks like? I have talked to friends, family, and colleagues and we are all coping with this reality in different ways. For some it has felt like death (whether literal or because of the loss of a job, etc.) and they are grieving; for others, they’ve used their time as therapy and they are cleaning o

Succeeding With Passion: Designing The Life You’ve Always Dreamed Of!

I’ve been in the business of helping people figure out their lives in different ways for many years now. What I’ve learned is that most people go through the motions of living, but they rarely live a life that is truly fulfilled. They search for the next thing verses enjoying the moment and finding the beauty in the present. There’s nothing wrong with growing and doing new things, but when we do it to fill a void or to run from something in our lives, it is not acceptable. If

Equity Can't Wait

American Women for International Understanding, an organization whose mission is to help improve the lives of women and girls across the globe, recently decided to attend a book reading and conversation with Melinda Gates and John Legend. The conversation was both enriching and uplifting. The event was centered around Melinda Gates new book, “The Moment of Lift: How Empowering Women Changes the World.” She shared that when you lift women, you lift all of humanity. Her sentime
