  • Recovering from Burn Out

    We’re nearing the end of 2021 and I’ve been more inconsistent than I’ve ever been on my social media. Learn more about why and how I’m determined to learn from being burned out. I don’t have it down pack yet, there’s still plenty of room to grow with all of my perfectionist tendencies. It’s okay, I’m a work in progress.

    Episode Affirmations:

    I have the ability to make progress, with ease, today.

    I have plenty of time when I decide to tackle things one thing at a time.

    I release all negative attachments, thoughts and feelings that are blocking me from receiving and blocking my path.

    I move forward with confidence and no longer press rewind.

    The Lord has given me strength to transform the way I think.

    I am willing and able to redirect my attention to whatever is lovely, true, and praiseworthy.

  • I didn’t win… again. miss maryland 2021 pageant experience recap

    After prepping for over a year and a half, Miss Maryland 2021 has come and gone… and shocker… I didn’t win… again. It feels unreal to have made it into the top 5. I knew it would be a big jump to win from being a non-finalist in 2019, but the results show that I was clearly capable of it and that I have improved so much. If I believed just a little bit harder … I may have been able to bring home the crown but instead I pre-maturely gave myself grace and ended up being happy to be there! I have no regrets. Enjoy my reflection as I share the lessons I’ve learned and the advice I have for others.

  • the SororiTEA: college was traumatizing + advice to my freshman self

    There are so many exciting parts about college, a lot of it that is publicized are the social perks of going to college. 

    College experience is different for everybody but what's crazy is how college is a perfect dream for some people, and for others its a nightmare. 

    It's even crazier to see how the experiences are different for different schools, races and genders. 

    I got stuck on Alabama Rush Tik Tok this week, and as I caught up on all the OOTDs and learned about a huge scandal that was sweeping the internet, I began to think about how traumatizing college can be. 

    Here are my thoughts. This is the soroiTEA

  • my social media sabbatical... why I took it & what I learned

    hi friends! From January 1, 2021- May 15, 2021, I was radio silent on social media. Simply put, I was over it… I felt like my posts lacked purpose and I began to get frustrated on why I even cared.

    So I took time to reset and figure out what I wanted to do differently to make me feel better. First I had to take a step back and think about why I was unhappy with my social media and ultimately I chose to give it God!

    This episode is all about me choosing my purpose over potential because I have the potential to do many things in media and on social media but chasing a calling not designated for me won’t have Gods blessing on it.

  • doubt, fear and depression= my MCAT experience

    Let’s face it. I was more than scared to take the Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT), I was terrified. Fear, crippled me with doubt, anxiety and insecurity, placing me in a God-allowed crisis. Was I going to give up? Or let God manifest His glory in ways yet unseen by me allowing Him to become more real to me?

    It wasn’t a straight or easy road. There were to be many sacrifices, a season of isolation, and several deep dives into the insecurities of my past and present. These are all the many factors that would lend to my success.
