This week marks my 1 year Anniversary in Houston and 979 The Box! I am thrilled to say this has been a great year! I want to thank H-Town for giving me so much love. When I have moved to other cities in the past, I have always felt uncomfortable but moving to Houston was […]
In my opinion…being a single mom and dating really sucks! Where is the time?! Check out my blog about my feelings on dating a raising a little girl!
I use to complain that it takes to much time to cook a healthy meal or that it costs too much. I am a single mom and I have limited time everyday! However, once I decided to become a healthy eater and live a healthy lifestyle I saw that it actually doesn’t take a lot […]
One of the things that I have loved the most about being at The Box is that the employees have a lot of “light”. I do believe your employees are a reflection of their leadership (managers, owners, etc). So when your upper management has a huge light shining it will spread to everyone else […]
When I first heard about the over-the-counter HIV test I had mixed feelings. Actually, I still do. While it appears to be a wonderful idea to have access to an HIV test and results at your own convenience….this may not be a good thing. I have been in HIV/AIDS Outreach since 1995 when I lost […]
This past Saturday thousands of people gathered to run and walk at this year’s Susan G Komen Race for the Cure!!! I did the family fun walk with my daughter Alani. We saw some amazing “pink” outfits from those in support of love ones who had passed away from Breast Cancer as well as survivors. […]
I had the pleasure of attending Oprah’s Lifeclass on Friday morning at the Hobby Center with my co-worker Ayana Mack. Oprah’s special guest was Joel Osteen and the title of the show was on the topic “The Power of I AM”. The idea is pretty simple. What we speak…we bring to life. We have to […]
My 5 yr started Kindergarten a few weeks ago and she has been learning Chinese. Let’s see if she is really learning! Check out the video!
Last night I rolled through the House of Blues to check out the 2 Chainz Concert. Now I will admit that I am not the biggest 2 Chainz fan but I did enjoy the show!!! He put it down. I felt like I was at a Gucci show last night. LOL. I met up with […]
Yesterday I put it down in the gym with my trainer Milton Harris! I put out a challenge to my fellow co-workers at the box to see if they could handle this boxing workout. Let’s see what happens! Check out the video!
In this video I share with you my personal experience with therapy. I am very disturbed by the misconceptions people still have about seeing a therapist. When we take a look on TV and see Chris Brown and Rihanna, Chad and Ev and Terrell Owens…isn’t it evident that these people need help? Now take […]
I was so blessed that a good friend of mine bought my daughter this Dave Ramsey Junior Financial Peace program. I will show you how it works! It is so important to teach kids how to give, save and spend so that they grow up knowing how to manage their money!
