New year, new goals and new things to achieve. But...not without a plan and some inspiration.

Let the fangirling commence! I've wanted to interview Dami well before there was even a thought of a podcast. She is such a genuine and humble person who serves others through the work as a luxury designer of wedding and other special event invitation suites, gifts and crystal clutches.  No matter where your vision lies, she executes it with the highest quality as if she was designing for the Lord himself! She does all of this while mothering twin boys and being the wife of a fellow creative who is luxury menswear designer. During our conversation, she definitely dropped some jewels that can be used in both life and business.

It's a late night post because my heart is troubled.

The title speaks for itself but I'm talking more to myself than anything else. But if it speaks to you, we're doing the work together! Find me on the 'gram at the_legacy_diaries

Number 1: I'm sorry for all the noise in the background. I didn't realize I was moving around so much. Number 2: Death is a sensitive and often avoided conversation for many. But like T'Challah "We don't do that here." We're talking about it because too many of us don't have plans for what to do about it when it happens and we leave our families SOL. Number: Please like, subscribe and share. I love what I do and hope you do too.   Catch me on the internet streets on IG @the_legacy_diaries or email hello@thelegacydiaries.com

What we allow to consume our minds can often be what breaks our will and our spirit.   You can find me on IG || @the_legacy_diaries or email || hello@thelegacydiaries.com

Ya'll...consistency, consistency, consistency. You hear all the time but haven't quite figured out how to do it...consistently. Le sigh...I had to... But seriously I take a closer at look something that has been elusive to me for years plus how I plan to tackle it. Catch me in these internet streets || @the_legacy_diaries or hello@thelegacydiaries.com

With the pandemic and the fight for equality and justice for black lives and people of color and the announcement of Kamala Harris as VP running mate of Joe Biden, you know these internet streets about to get to whole new level of dirty. Your emotional and mental well being can't take another hit.   Catch me on IG || the_legacy_diaries or email || hello@thelegacydiaries.com

That's how many minutes have passed this year up until 8:30 pm tonight. Those minutes may have looked far different than what we originally planned. But we still have 180,720 minutes left in the year. What will you do next?

Le sigh...

I'm back with a couple of things on my mind. I've missed this space.

Its the first interview of the year and I'm sitting down with Sasha Earnest aka the hair slayer. We talk hair, parenting while black and how her love of people has not only shaped her business but how she raises her boys.   Please listen in and if you love what you hear please leave a rating so others can find us.

Thanksgiving is this week and we all know the usual family pics with captions giving thanks are about to hit your social media feed. While many will say that they are grateful, do they truly mean it? I take a look at my own life to see if my words have rang true or if I've been giving lip service. Listen in and let me know your thoughts over at @the_legacy_diaries on IG

While driving in the car + perusing FB (not at the same time!!) it clicked why my goals have never really been achieved. Are you guility of the same? What are you going to do differently? Listen and tell me your thoughts. @the_legacy_diaries

There's no true topic today but more so an honest moment. I'm an emotional mess but I'm working through it. Be well everyone.   IG: the_legacy_diaries

Ladies, momming is hard. Dang hard!  But you don't have to do it all if dad is willing and fully capable of fulfilling his role as a father. As much as moms like to claim the title of superhero, unfortunately last I checked we were all human which means we need rest. Shoot even some superheros needed to be recharged. You are priority. And guess what? That is more than OK!! IG: the_legacy_diaries

Though we've never met in real life, talking to Alaina is like speaking with an old friend. Her story of infertility to motherhood then divorce and single motherhood while building a business she loves is nothing short of inspiring. While she doesn't deny her hard work, she knows her faith in God is what has carried her through the bad times and the good. We laugh our way through this episode sharing our mommy moments while trying to finish before our sweet babes awake from nap time. Take a listen and enjoy the show!!

This week I'm joined by Kamilah Campbell of The Pink Locket. She is an amazing artisan whose handcrafted works of metal are designed to "make a woman feel great" about herself. Her pieces of jewelry are not only on my birthday wish list but have been seen on TV sitcoms and been a part of a FEW pre-OSCAR and MTV Movie Awards gifting suites. While her corporate job demands her attention during the day, it is in the evening hours she devotes to her business with goals of making it full time. We discuss her business, how she decompresses and her most recent turn on a game show.   Sit back, kick your feet up and take a listen!
