So I did a thing! I finally recorded an intro- Q&A video for YouTube 😬😬😬

And y’all… it was kinda hard lol. I don’t know why I felt so crazy like I was talking to myself, and I swear I said “Hell y’all , welcome to my channel” 137 times 😭😂 Anyway, do me a favor and go check it out! I’m getting more used to doing long form video content, so I’m going to be consistent with YouTube and not let fear of the unknown hold me back anymore.

Make sure you subscribe to my channel, and like and comment on my latest video- the link is in my bio.

I have more videos planned, but tell me, what kind of videos would y’all like to see?? And if you’re active on YouTube, what are some tips you can share with a newbie like me?

Sanai is officially a kindergartener!! And while I am still a little nervous about her starting big girl school, I'm grateful that @DollarGeneral has taken away the hassle of back to school shopping. #paid

I went into my local #dollargeneral with her school supply list, and was able to find the majority of the items in just one location. I was able to find my favorite name brands like Elmer's, and I even grabbed a few $1 items that she needed. The #dollargeneralfinds are always in overflow, especially during special times of the year.

You want to know the best part about shopping at Dollar General? The low everyday prices! If you download the Dollar General Digital Coupons app, you can save even more with the $2 OFF $10 DG digital coupon and $5 OFF $25 on Saturdays. Teachers save even more at DG with their 30% OFF Teachers' Appreciation Event.

Stop by your local DG today and get everything you need. Make sure you use those #dollargeneralcoupons when you go!

What grades are your kid(s) going to? Are you all ready for Back to School? If you are a teacher or know a teacher, tell them to sign-up for the 30% OFF discount!

After 3 weeks, I finally get to see this smiling face tomorrow!!! I don’t think I’ve ever been happier 😭

I’m at work right now so distracted because I keep sneaking and looking at videos of Sanai. Swipe left to see her living her best City Girl life with almost no rhythm, but the most beautiful smile in the world 😍😂

Where do these suburban kids come from? Sis should have been able to catch that beat 😭😅

Do you know how good it feels to be in control of your life and your choices? For the longest time, I struggled with managing my weight, prioritizing my time, and being mindful of my food choices. Back in December I posted about my weight loss journey with Plenity. I wanted to update everyone on how that journey went and reflect on how amazing I feel since taking control of my health and losing weight.

I partnered with Plenity, an FDA-cleared weight management aid that is available by prescription. I'm happy to finally be able to share the progress I made on my weight loss journey. I would take three capsules with 16 oz (2 glasses) of water 20 minutes before lunch and dinner. Plenity helped me feel fuller, which in turn, made me eat less. Using that time to plan my meals allowed me to have more of a routine and plan my day more effectively, giving me more time for the things that matter most to me... like spending more time with Sanai.

Since taking Plenity, I lost over 16 lbs over the course of 2 months, which is still so surreal to me. Everyone is different, so your individual results may vary. The thing I love most is that Plenity isn’t a fad diet that requires deprivation. Stay tuned as I continue to recap my journey. If you are looking for a weight management aid that can help you feel fuller, and eat less, then head to MyPlenity.com and see if Plenity is a good fit for you. #MyPlenity @Plenity

Plenity® is an aid for weight management in adults with excess weight or obesity, Body Mass Index (BMI) of 25 to 40 kg/m², when used in conjunction with diet and exercise.

Richard and I have been together for 7 years, pare

Richard and I have been together for 7 years, parenting together for almost 5 years and married for just under 6 months. ⁣Here are 5 things I do as a new wife that I vow to do until I’m old and gray.⁣
⁣
1. 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐦𝐲 𝐡𝐮𝐬𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐝. Whether I plan a night on the town, or make a fancy dinner at home, we will have a date at least once a week. This one is a no brainer, so I won’t explain any further.⁣
⁣
2. 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐦𝐲 𝐡𝐮𝐬𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐝. Whether big compliments like “babe, thank you for all that you do. I couldn’t operate at this level without you as my partner.” Or everyday compliments like “babe your arms are still my favorite body part 😻” (he’s a bodybuilder so body compliments are the key for him lol).⁣ Women aren’t the only ones that want to feel seen. Compliment your man, too!
⁣
3. 𝐑𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐦𝐲 𝐡𝐮𝐬𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐝. I’m not gonna lie, with all I have going on, ya girl be tired lol. But I’ve made a commitment to keep a healthy sex life with my husband. Btw, what frequency do you consider to be “healthy” with two working spouses with kid(s)?⁣ 👀
⁣
4. 𝐁𝐞 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬. This used to be something I struggled with because I was against merging finances until we were officially and legally married. Now that we are, discussing + merging our finances has come much more naturally for me. ⁣It’s also somehow developed a deeper sense of trust and (nonsexual) intimacy with us.
⁣
5. 𝐋𝐞𝐭 𝐡𝐢𝐦 𝐰𝐢𝐧 𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐮𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬… and if you know me, then you KNOW this is a huge deal. If I’m right (which is often), then dammit I’m right 🤷🏾‍♀️ But I’ve learned to just shut up sometimes and let him think he’s right. Heavy on the SOMETIMES bc God ain’t through with me yet 😅
⁣
Obviously, I’m still a rookie in the marriage world, but I hope at least one of these resonated with someone. Let me know below some things you do to keep your marriage thriving!

Just a reminder to keep pushing. Nobody has it all

Just a reminder to keep pushing. Nobody has it all figured out, even if it looks like they do. Take it from me: You will find yourself. You will find your purpose.

Let me know what you are manifesting for this week below?

Repeat after me:

I attract money.

We should all be millionaires.

Abundance will always find me.

I will go after everything my heart desires.

If I’m scared, I’m gonna do it scared.

I will rest if I must, but I will never quit.

This is my winning season.

I will not fold and I will not fail.

Words have power. Speak it and believe it.
