They were sharing posts, they were sharing videos. They were sharing their Prince stories. They didn’t have a problem with talking about him and how his music touched them. Saturday night, Beyonce introduced her new CD – Lemonade. Social media went crazy again. Some people loved
When I decided to go natural I honestly didn’t think it would be a big deal. Man was I in for a rude awakening. I started a journey to learn more about me and my hair and what made us happy. When it came to my hair I never thought about it as being happy but as the years passed I realized that I had to listen to my hair and not to what

Many people will leave this earth because they want make time to write the book that’s in there heart. They’d rather talk about it. I was that way for many years.

I was excited about seeing the world
I love to read my mom used to tease me that I would read the back of the cereal box that’s how much I love to read. I am a magazine lover. I enjoy seeing new magazines on the shelf. Even though I’m a digital magazine publisher, I still love the feel of a magazine. I guess that’s why I still get a tingle when I hold SORMAG Digital. It feels real to me. I’m
This is my last day as a 48 year old. It has been an interesting year. I’ve done some amazing things. I’ve had some fun days, some valley days, and some trials, but I’m glad that I get to see a new year. I’m happy I get to continue on this journey of publication. I’m excited I’m able to share this journey with you and encourage you to start your own journey because life is

Over the years I realized I was saying I’m gonna and not doing a dog on thing but talk. I’m gonna was a part of my fear mentality.

The first time I was called the “N” word was last year on a scope I was doing. A troll came into the scope and decided to shake up my world. I politely blocked him.
