Pivot Until Positioned
The past 2.5 years of my life have been an uprooting of everything I ever knew, wanted or thought my life should be. It helped me to dig deep and question all that I have ever done or knew. But this journey actually began far before this time. It started at birth but I’m going […]
The Love of Money: Money Moves June 2020
10 For the love of money [that is, the greedy desire for it and the willingness to gain it unethically] is a root of all sorts of evil, and some by longing for it have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves [through and through] with many sorrows. 1 Timothy 6:10 Amplified Bible I’m going to […]
Juneteenth: A Black Texan Celebration Gone National
Juneteenth is my first lesson in resistance even though it wasn’t framed in that way.

6 Figure Terms: Money Moves May 2020
To be a good steward in business we must understand some key terms. Over the past few years all I’ve seen online was the drive and desire for people to make 6 figures. There’s nothing wrong with that. I would love to personally so I can support more organizations that do great work in their […]
Just Queening Podcast Interview
A couple of months ago, I was a guest on the ‘Just Queening Podcast’ with my friend Natalie Louis. She and I have been trying to do something for awhile and this ended up being a great way to start. Of all the podcast interviews I’ve had, this was the most God-transparent I’ve been. And […]

Okay everyone the season of relaunches is gone. I decided to completely rebrand my blog. Well it’s something God has been nudging me towards for months but I couldn’t fathom exactly what that meant. I’ll share more on why May 20 with the first new blog post. Until then check out the posts I did […]
