Nurturing Body, Mind, Soul and Spirit
I feel like I’m distant from my family in a way that most families aren’t supposed to be. I feel like I get judged by not being as responsive or communicative as a family member would be to another. I don’t really feel like I have ties to people outside of my immediate family because […]
The past couple of weeks have been tough for me. It’s the reason why you haven’t seen at least a weekly blog post. While people are taking to the street to battle racism and oppression, I’ve been doing so in the form of social media and education in my own community. The small form responses […]

They say you are the top 5 people you hang around. Sometimes I don’t think that’s the case when it comes to individuals in the same area as me. I have a good group of friends, but we all change. I’m sure you’ll get more insight into who I am based on the people that […]
There are a few things that I do that try to stay grounded while working through stress throughout the day. Work and other priorities are not my idea of relaxation, but there are more than just those 8 hours of the day for me to relax and have some me time. I’ll just give you […]
