Happy Father’s day to my father, the best father any girl could have ever asked for. A man who knows how to help a girl transition through the awkward phases of life – girlhood, ladyhood, wifehood – and still let her know that she is beautiful and wonderfully made, and a joy to be around. …

I have faith it will work out well
My gift in life is to encourage people. It’s always been that way. Whatever I do, I do to encourage people. I feel like there are just too many discouragers in the world telling us who we cannot be or what we cannot do, and I refuse to be one of them. I’ve been privileged …
Dem go talk
I was listening to the radio the other day (While stuck in 2 hour traffic) and I heard this hilarious song “Dem go talk” Some of the lines went something like – Wear designer, dem go talk, abi na China, dem go talk… It was so funny to me, and so true. No matter what …

I wish I had your problems
Sometimes life doesn’t go the way I planned it. I wake up in the morning determined to read my word and exercise, and find out I’m sick and can’t do anything… I get excited about making a smoothie and find out that Nepa took the light right when I had everything chopped up… and the …
When are you going to get married?
If I had a dollar for every time people asked me “when are you going to get married?” before I got married, I would be much richer than I am now. Your friends, your family members, your colleagues… some of them with your best interest at heart, others are just nosy… but they all want …
