Just a Lil’ piece I wrote. Sending love and encouragement during these trying times.
Read slow, absorb the words.

We’re In This Together

Face masks and gloves,
Smiles with no hugs...

Seems unreal
Downright surreal,
Many trying to just heal...

Internal fears
Countless deaths,
Uncontrollable tears...

Stay protected, all prayed up
Keep Love overflowing... all up in your cup...

Never enlisted before
Once you walk out that door,
You’re on the front line...

Hoping and praying that we ALL return home and we can respond when asked, “Who me? The fam? yep, we’re doing just fine.”

Now more than ever, sit back and thank God for pulling you through...
HE didn’t have to do it but knew you needed him to.

Stay Blessed. Stay Safe. Stay Prayerful.

We’re in this together.

Xoxo

Here’s A Little Inspiration....

Don’t forget to Follow Your Own Dreams!

While life is typically set up for us all to go to school, get a good education, so we can obtain a decent paying job or begin a career, get married, have children and live happily ever after.

This is not everyone’s reality.

While these paths are great sometimes they can lack self-fulfillment. We tend to fall short of taping into our own internal talents or embracing the art of entrepreneurship.

For instance: Have you ever made a decent salary yet felt a sense of emptiness? Have you ever felt as though you were working endless days and sleepless nights for a company that didn’t appreciate you? Have you asked yourself- if I can work as hard as I do making someone else’s dreams come true imagine what I can do if I put all of my energy into my own dreams or business?

You’re not alone.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with working for someone else and receiving steady income. But for those creatives, those of you that aren’t afraid to step outside of your comfort zones, for those of you who want to feel a sense of gratification, this ones for you.

My proclamation to you is to encourage your creative, beautiful selves to stay the course. Find your niche and make your own dreams come true. You’ll find your self gratification in finding your purpose in life.

My proclamation to myself is to do the same that I encourage you to do. We’re in this together.

Be Beautiful... be you... and be a reflection of your Own Sweet Dreams that are sure to come true.

Allow me to Re-Introduce Myself

Who is Shoya Bowman?

She’s a Mother, a member of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Inc, and a Business Woman. She’s a woman of many talents.

She’s a writer with an Award-winning stage play under her belt entitled, Love’s Got A Hold On Me which was based off of her best selling novel, Goodbye Don’t Always Mean Gone. She’s proud to have written this stage play under the Direction of Christine Houston, writer of 227, the 80’s hit television sitcom. This play was a smash hit and has received several requests for its return.

Shoya has also written a second stage play entitled, Baby Blue that made its debut at the Atlanta Black Theatre Festival in 2015. This is a story which brings to light the raw realities of teen domestic violence. This play came about at the request of the Chicago Police Department. Shoya was hand chosen to write a play focusing on Domestic Violence Awareness that would be shared at the high schools in Chicago.

Shoya has written three books and co-authored two. She’s a former Blogger with the Six Brown Chicks, a group of women from Chicago who once brought their daily blogs which mainly dealt with relationships to life through discussions on WCIU.com. These women later found themselves on an episode of Iyanla Vanzant’s Fix My Life on OWN.

She moved from Chicago to Atlanta in 2015 to further her career in Arts & Entertainment as well as her love for writing. She since penned one novel, not yet published. She currently teaches classes on ‘How to Self Publish’ or ‘How to Produce Your Own Stage Play.’ She finds great joy in sharing her knowledge with aspiring writers and producers.

Shoya has also found a way to intertwine her love for writing with her love for beauty by launching with her very own Empowering Cosmetic Line called Dipped Lips and Tips Cosmetics. Here she encourages women to look and feel beautiful and to stay encouraged to follow your dreams.

She’s been featured on several media outlets such as Essence.com, WCIU, WVON, The Black Woman’s Expo, Rolling Out Magazine, N’Digo Newspaper, Chicago Tribune.
She’s a two time Peach Theatre Award Recipient for Literary Education and Up & Coming Playwright Award, Winner of Awards at the Atlanta Black Theatre Festival (2012) and so much more....

She’s ready in mind, body and spirit to move forward with making her own dreams continue to come to fruition. She doesn’t move until God tells her to... God spoke. The time is Now!

Her books and work shops are available for Visit Shoya’s Writings on Facebook, inbox her, email her at [email protected].
