I believe in the power of coaching. I know myself and know I perform best when I have someone to hold me accountable. Sometimes I break the promises I make to myself (seriously working on this) but I tend to keep the ones I make to other people. That’s why I’m overjoyed to be working with a leadership coach.

I’ve made promises to myself before but was always okay, and to be honest relieved, when I would break them. Big tasks were scary to me. I told myself I … Continue reading I Made Good on That Promise
I was asked this question recently as I participated in a panel for the organization I work for, The Cara Program. The panel included an amazing group of women and focused on the theme, “Women, better together.” On the panel (surprisingly I wasn’t as nervous as I usually am, although there were over 100 women in the room) I shared my truth and reservations about … Continue reading Are You An Introvert?
I’m still on a high. Last week an issue of Essence magazine hit the stands (the November 2015 issue to be exact) and it has completely changed me. Let me tell you why. A few months ago I received a message from Lamar Tyler 1/2 of the married duo who’ve created the award winning site, http://www.blackandmarriedwithkids.com His message just reminded me to check my voice mail. … Continue reading And Then This Happened
