Robin Roberts epitomizes the essence of strength, resilience, and grace. As we celebrate Women’s History Month, it’s impossible not to acknowledge the impact she has had, not only in the realm of journalism but also as a beacon of hope and courage for women everywhere. From her early days as a sports reporter to her…
In honor of Women’s History Month, I’m sharing some of the women who have inspired me. From a business perspective, Arianna Huffington is one of those women. She is the co-founder of The Huffington Post and is now the founder and CEO of Thrive Global. I love what she’s doing at Thrive where her mission…
Last week, I came across an interview with Queen Latifah and she was asked what the best advice she ever received was. Her response (in much shorter order than she said it) was that early in her career when she was upset about something a member of her team (who is still with her) said…
(Insert Your First Name) do it! Remember wanting to feel independent and try new things when you were young? If you have kids and grandchildren, you’ve been blessed to watch them grow into (and through) this phase. Think about what that was like… The pure joy of discovery… of accomplishing things for the first time……
There’s a lot we could talk about regarding the big game that was played last Sunday. Yes, I’m talking about the Super Bowl. There was Taylor and Travis… Usher and the halftime show… Reba singing the National Anthem… Brock and Patrick… Andy and Kyle… And so much more! How about the commercials? $7 million for…

Last week, I shared part of Niecy Nash’s acceptance speech from the Emmy awards show. She talked about being a winner and she thanked herself. It was powerful! If you haven’t listened to it, I suggest you do – it will be worth the one minute and fourteen seconds of your time. What was just…
I don’t usually watch awards shows. I didn’t watch the Emmy’s last week, but I saw some of the speeches and a lot of the winners on social media. As I was scrolling through Instagram last Tuesday morning, I saw Niecy Nash’s acceptance speech. She was excited to have won. One of the first things…
I love quotes… I saw one the other day that I saved and haven’t stopped thinking about. It said… “Life isn’t about waiting for the Storm to Pass… It’s about learning to Dance in the Rain!” How many times have you found yourself waiting for something before you take the next step? We’ve all done…
I was talking to a friend of mine this morning and she told me about a poem her mom used to recite to her. It was called “Keep A-Goin’!” by Frank Lebby Stanton (1857-1927). When she read it to me, I immediately knew it was the topic for this week. Does it seem like a…
