I knew that this day would come, I just wasn’t quite sure of when it would be. The day that I would be ready to retire my middle name, finally accept that I was walking in my purpose, and fully own my power. Just like getting locs, I thought this day would come around age …

Last week concluded The Book of Corinthian’s virtual book tour and I must say that it was a success! It’s bittersweet that it has come to an end but definitely more sweet than bitter. I’m grateful that my new bestselling book has received more exposure and for the beautiful connections that I’ve made this month. …
Freedom is a Mindset
This past weekend Juneteenth was celebrated. Reason being, African Americans were not free in 1776 when America gained its independence. The same can be said about Juneteenth for my ancestors as well. My grandmother was born in the 1920’s and she was still living on a plantation farm with her parent’s former slave master’s. I …

Benefits of Meditation
Somewhere in my childhood I adopted the belief that meditation was something mystical and that I should probably stay away from it. Maybe it was my vivid imagination, growing up in churches with strict rules, things I saw on TV, or a combination of the three. Whatever the reason was, I am so glad that I ditched this belief …
The God in You

The Rainbow
It’s been raining off and on way more than usual here lately. My old self always hated rainy days for many reasons. I wouldn’t so much as step outside for fresh air let alone go anywhere. Before I shaved my hair off, getting my hair wet was a no. Correction it was a hell no …
Be Bold, Take That Leap
What if you had enough faith to move mountains What if you believed that you could do anything and that every obstacle is insurmountable What if you were as confident in your ability to succeed as you are in the possibility to fail What if you believed that you could have heaven on earth the …

Use What You Got
Where will I get the money to do this? When will I find the time to do it all? How will I get the resources that I need? Do any of these questions sound familiar to you? When God showed me the vision for my life I found myself asking all of the above on …

August is all about authenticity, being who you are unapologetically. That is always enough. Here is an affirmation for this month: Today I am making the choice to honor the Divine by honoring who I truly am. I am accepting that it’s okay to be my authentic self.

Affirmations for Giving Birth
It was a week before my due date to deliver Legend and no doctor had agreed to deliver him if I didn’t agree to have another c-section.
Closer
Provision
While a baby is in the womb, they blindly trust that their mother they’ve never seen face to face will provide their needs. Why is it so hard for us to trust in our Source to do the same for us? It’s difficult to live a life of freedom if living in fear of having …

My Soul Teacher Lesson #7: Just Let it Go
On Sunday, I washed Jarvis Jr’s hair, dyed it (per his request), combed it out, and gave him some small twist. After completing the lengthy process, I pulled out all of his hair that shed out of the comb. He saw me do this and gave me this look of terror. “Mommy is that my …

Just Ask
Abundance is our birthright
Choices
Freedom is here for all but it is also a choice.
Silence
I’ve seen this meme before floating around the internet that says something like, “Sometimes I wish that God would just come and sit on my bed and tell me exactly what to do.” That’s easier said than done. God is always speaking but we aren’t always listening. We all have the ability to tune into …

My Soul Teacher Lesson #2: Get Free
My husband was holding our baby boy a few days ago and he made the observation, “He still hasn’t stretched his legs all the way out.” My husband tried to hold baby boy away from his body to help him stretch his legs out. His legs stretched a little but quickly curled back up. My baby’s …
