I got a message from a friend on my facebook page this morning encouraging me to take some time for myself today and to breathe. Well, normally those words are completely foreign to me, but today they were totally speaking my language! The language of The Peninsula Spa that is. Because that is exactly where I was this morning, between Rush and the famed Miracle Mile of Michigan Avenue right on Superior. And superior it was in every way. [Read more...]

I love the social media webisphere I get to work and play in everyday. I am so very appreciative of all that is has afforded me these last few years.

An invite such as that is directly related to the success of the work that I do, which leaves me equally proud and humbled, particularly because I know there are a lot of influencers out there who working hard too, especially influencers of color.

My children and I are headed to Disney World in Orlando, Florida for the Disey Social Media Moms Conference and to tour an orange grove for Tropicana Pure Premium 100% OJ in 17 days. That may seem like ample prep time for you, but in my World it’s crunch time. We haven’t received a definitive itinerary, so I can’t plan specific outfits just yet. But no matter what the itinerary says one thing will be a must, a great pair of walking shoes for casing the parks and the grove. [Read more...]

I am in the third quarter of birthday season here at my house. Both of my daughters have already celebrated theirs. Still to come this month are my son, my mother and my niece.

My youngest daughter Jaedyn turns 9 years old today. I can hardly believe that my little cherub is growing up as she is, fast and fabulous. But I guess it isn’t surprising, our life is moving so fast, it’s hard to keep up, or get everything in. That’s why in anticipation of Jaedyn’s birthday I ended up throwing together an improptu celebration the day before because a pocket of time opened up and friends were game for fun. [Read more...]
