    Black meditation – is it any different?

    Yes, black meditation is different. Over the years, there have been meditation programs, apps, and many more on the market. They do work (we give them credit), but they were never tailored for black people or women of color. Meditation is as old as time itself.

  • Dream Chasing

    Dream Chasing

    Chasing your dream seems so easy now. It wasn’t always this way, well at least for me it wasn’t. I’ve always felt like my dreams were chasing me and I was dodging them at all cost, not purposely but it was happening. As a child, you are given the imagination to use and runaway with.…

    The Motive

    Have you ever had a recurring dream and no matter what the outcome still remained the same when morning came? I have and there lies my motivation. I talk to GOD every morning, most days I didn’t think He would talk back. I’m learning to be patient because He may not speak with words all…
