Future of Black Women and Girls

Let’s be real—life is full of distractions. But the deepest work begins with  self-actualization . And for Black women and girls, one of the biggest distractions we face is the game of dating—a game that’s had a tight grip on us for far too long. The truth is, we need the courage to see our desire for men and relationships for exactly what it is: often a distraction dressed up as destiny. What if I told you that as you grow and master the art of  detachment , you begin to see men for who they truly are—outside of the fairytales and without the rose-colored glasses? What if I told you that your very life, your purpose, your peace, could depend on this realization? Many women are out here wondering why they can’t find the work they love. Why they feel stuck in  survival mode . Why they haven’t tapped into their highest path. I believe so much of this has to do with our  energy drains —the emotional labor we pour into others while neglecting ourselves. When your energy ...

To move forward, we must first look back—with clarity, intention, and wisdom. Our past holds more than pain; it holds patterns, lessons, and undeniable truths. As Black women, it is essential that we study those patterns not just to reflect but to  respond . The events of the past should become our stepping stones—not stumbling blocks. They offer the blueprint for building a future where Black women and girls are not just surviving but  thriving . We cannot afford to believe the lie that only one of us can win. It can’t be “just one.” It must be  all of us . Our liberation, safety, and success are collective. The way we come together, the way we build community, and the way we lay a foundation for the next generation—it matters deeply. We are not meant to walk this journey alone. The strength, power, and genius of Black women lies in our ability to gather, unite, and move with intention toward a greater vision. Why Individual Success Isn’t Enough Anymore This is about mor...

It’s clear to me. Even looking at the current state of the world here in 2025, there’s a constant call for Black women to step in—to support the causes of everyone else. What that tells me is this: Black women, by and large, are the only ones truly capable. No one else really wants to do it. Black women are not only fit but  highly effective  at creating the change the world says it wants to see. Black women + power go together  real bad . It’s been a long-overdue journey to return to ourselves—but we are well on our way. Black women are the blueprint. So of course, we’re returning to the "drawing board"—not to save the world, but to tap into Source and redesign the systems we’ve long been excluded from. Only this time, it’s different. Black women are turning inward. We’re centering  self  in a way we hadn’t in the past. We’re using our power to benefit  ourselves — first —before anyone else. Because we now understand, clearly, what happens when we become t...

It’s something from both personal experience and observation that I have come to understand. Black women, we do not belong in corporate workplaces. I believe this is also spiritual to some degree—that this is true. It’s in every way much like throwing ourselves to the wolves by entering those places, only to turn around and then have our younger girls be “trained” to assimilate and enter said places without any protection. No. The buck stops with me. This has long been my journey—to help support creating safe workplaces for Black women and girls through my businesses. I want to change the standard for women and girls coming up, so that we too deserve to be heard and protected. Doing this means doing things differently, expanding both the approach and how we decide to essentially do business from the inside out. I remember when I began putting the pieces together. I remember thinking about how Black girls are forced into assimilating...

The solution? Doing the work.  Self-care isn’t always an easy path. It requires taking responsibility for yourself. It means doing the work, and sometimes—most times—doing it alone. However, as someone who’s been through a few big life changes myself, I can say, and will continue to say, that it’s WORTH IT. I remember having a conversation with an old friend who asked me how I was doing—you know, the usual check-in. I realized that because I had prioritized doing the work in my life, I couldn’t quite find the words to describe just how good it felt to be on this side. To still be doing the work, though not exactly where I want to be, yet continuing through the process—it’s an experience that can only be truly understood once it’s lived. Everywhere I look, I see this obsession with partnership and being in a relationship. But something I’ve realized and must address is that it serves you no good to hold out for something that isn’t guaranteed. Say you do find that person—the one you...

Little Black Girls Deserve More Than Survival—And So Do You I remember when I was a little girl, my brother asked me, “How is it that you think the way you do?” That question has stayed with me—more now than it did back then. It’s one I’m still trying to answer. While it’s not 100% clear to me, the more I question things and refuse to take everything at face value, the more I realize my ancestors and spiritual guides offer me new perspectives. I am learning to embrace the perspectives that go beyond my own.  I’m learning to take the driver’s seat with my emotions. Sometimes, I think that can be scary—not just for people who meet me, but for me too. Most people tend to be codependent, but I haven’t had that luxury in my life. Instead, I’ve cultivated emotional independence. No one else is responsible for my happiness—that’s something I must create for myself first. As I develop my own sense of self and awareness, I see just how high my standards are. I’m not a group-think type of ...

When you truly recognize how rigged society’s systems are, it forces you to reevaluate everything. The disparities in power, access, and opportunity are not accidental—they are by design. As we navigate 2025, a time of rapid revelation and shifting paradigms, more truths are coming to light. One of the most glaring is how the race for status and influence has never been fair. Unqualified individuals continue to hoard power, resources, and opportunities, despite lacking the competence or integrity to justify their positions. This reality makes me question:   What does life look like beyond these oppressive structures? What kind of world could exist if we weren’t confined by these artificial limitations? As someone committed to ethical business practices, it’s disheartening to see how rarely integrity and fairness exist in corporate spaces today. This observation leads to an even more pressing question:  What if the dominant way of conducting business—the white, patriarchal mode...
