One of the best pieces of advice I’ve ever received is that the most important job you will have, is the one you have right now. As a society we are always looking at, or for what’s next. I am personally guilty of having an exit strategy before I even get two feet in the
Rounding out the summer fits with a throwback to a game day fit in a warm weather climate. I love a shirt dress and I paired it with a Black Midi Bodycon dress and Black and leopard print blazers. It was comfortable and cool and is a perfect fit for spring, summer, or early fall.

This was post was triggered by StartHER Five podcast episode with Dr. Marcia Edwards – Therapy for Black Girls. I say triggered because that’s exactly what I was. The tribe was having a very thought provoking conversation about therapy, resources available, why it’s important, and other topics that are worth a listen, and Dr. Edwards
I wanted to run back another fit from the NCAA Career in Sports Forum. I repurposed this shirt dress for a more casual look as I wore it with over the knee boots in the fall (linked HERE). I paired it with my Nike Dunks. This shirt dress was perfect for the Indy heat coupled
MENTORS: We all need one (or three)…and we definitely need to be one and pay it forward to others. Not a single person has moved into the positions they are in on their own, and in many cases, mentors and sponsors are those people who have been integral in assisting us to move through our
This might be one of my most favorite and comfortable fits ever! I wore this Jordan jumpsuit and multiprint Nike dunks to the NCAA Career in Sports Forum where I had the opportunity to be a keynote speaker. I bought my dunks from the only female owned sneaker shop in Toronto, Makeway, and when I
