A weekly email where I can ​be transparent about the

of business & how this girlie ​is holding on for dear life.

Being a woman in business, especially a black woman in business is ​extremely rewarding... but my God it is sometimes equally exhausting. ​Don’t let them see you sweat. Make sure you’re the best. Never be in.a ​position where you have to depend on someone else. Build the table. ​Prove them wrong. Be a boss, but be soft. Oh, and don’t forget, you ​have to look good while you’re taking over the world.

I’M TIRED! This shit can be unforgiving, draining, scary, misleading ​and above all, lonely.

Prior to 2023, I had a fake perception of what “work-life balance” ​entailed. I thought it meant work really hard then enjoy a vacation or ​two. Rinse and repeat. But as I kept going, I still found myself burning ​out. I wanted my vacations to never end. I was dreading running a ​business I once loved so dearly. When things got rough in my ​business in 2023, I slipped into a depression.

You know what saved me and saved my business?

My tribe. My tribe consists of a few key essential people: my therapist, ​my besties and my business friends. They not only held space for me, ​THEY HELD ME. They nursed me back to health mentally and ​spiritually. They fed my soul and nurtured my heart. I was able to heal ​and in turn, fall back in love with my business and this ​entrepreneurship life!

I am blessed. I have solid friends in my circle who will hold me down in ​both my personal and professional life, even when they have no clue ​what I do for a living lol. I have a “therapist” who will coach me back to ​wholeness (but honestly she is more like a therapist, bestie, homegirl, ​sister, auntie, mentor, business and life coach wrapped up in one.) And ​I got a business tribe who is transparent and nonjudgmental holding ​space to share, troubleshoot, vent and problem solve.

All this means the world to me and I just want to bring that to every ​boss woman trying to be everything, but needing someone to fill their ​cup.

So for now, subscribe to my weekly newsletter, but here shortly ​we will be launching some things for this business girlies (and ​guysies too)!
