Hey girl, hey!!! I'm back to give you another update! Chapter 38 was as good as it could be, even with the wrenches that were thrown into it. 😑 You've grown professionally, experienced having a child graduate high school, learned how to be a better caretaker to your daddy, watched your other child grow as an athlete, added another year of marriage/love with your husband, stressed yourself out, cried, laughed, survived some traumatic/emotional events, but you held on!! All those things you went through as a kid made you strong enough to take on all these things as an adult. Thank you for all you endured, every situation you navigated, all the problems you solved, each challenge you overcame, and every person you have connected with who is still in my life today. I guess being an awkward, tomboyish, skinny, rough, nerd does pay off!!! All the books you read, and got teased for, all the good grades, all the academic achievements, and all the long nights of homework and studying have been fruitful! You are so perfect, despite those who say otherwise. Keep growing up! Adulting is ghetto, but it's so worth it!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 That's all I've got this year, but I'll be back next year with more!!! Happy Birthday Treasure Troll/Tomboy/Dirty Sally/Nerd, and whatever else they call you! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Enjoy your day and have some cake for me. Just don't give the mean people any! 😘😘😘 I love you with your little chocolate, melanated, perfect skin having self!!! 🫶🏾🥰🫶🏾

Oh nothing, just thought this post I put out 2 years ago was absolutely worthy of a repost today! What have y'all done??? 😩🤦🏾‍♀️

Hey‼️ 🗣 Corporations/Organizations/Workplaces‼️ YOU AREN'T GROWING OR PROGRESSING BECAUSE YOUR PERCEPTIONS OF QUALIFIED CANDIDATES, & THEIR ABILITIES, ARE EXPIRED; TIRED; AND NEED TO BE SET ON FIRE‼️

Listen: DIVERSIFICATION IS A NOUN, BY DEFINITION, BUT DIVERSIFYING IS AN ACTION VERB HUN‼️ It's NOT a disclaimer‼️

If your staff, faculty, board members, subscribers, etc, still look like this 🤍, especially the ones in higher places, and have only a sprinkle, to none, of this 🤎🖤, you are exhibiting tokenism‼️ You ARE NOT moving towards really diversifying‼️ Take it how you want, but I always stand real tall when I speak. I mean absolutely EVERYTHING I say......🤷🏿‍♀️

The amount of women who have been conditioned to be inferior to men is alarming, and this election cycle is providing clear proof that they have NO idea what rights they are willing to forfeit in exchange for a proverbial pat on the back.

When your identity is always tied to someone else, codependency is the only way you can function, and some of y'all are clearly unable to exist as an individual. That being said, don't get mad when people tune you out about how much you desire change. We don't believe you because you don't even believe yourself! If you wanted to change your surroundings/circumstances then you would. Until then, complain to somebody else. I'm fresh out of pity and advice. 🤷🏾‍♀️ But by all means, carry on.....just leave me out of the conversation. 😒
