"Meaningful Conversations are life changing conversations"

I apologize for being MIA. I have been working on a ton of amazing stuff.
I constantly share on my journey as a mother and event planner because I understand the power of my story. I understand that there could be a woman out there scared to walk in her purpose and is waiting for a story she can relate to. I am interested in the everyday woman. The woman who is selling puff puff to raise her children, the woman who society gave up on because she had a child as a teenager or out of wedlock, the woman who has 4 children gone back to school and pursued her dreams. The woman who is able to balance working full time and raising her children. The woman who doesnt have children physically but has adopted is giving them her best. The woman who is an aunt or Godmother. The everyday mentor, the mentor who is not a millionaire. I am interested in the testimonies that are relatable. Your story is always going to be relatable. I am interested in the everyday woman making a difference in her community. That's a story that I would like to sit in on.

Guest at our last Mamipikin talks event in Gaithersburg MD. 10/22/2016 

In the past month so much has happened I could write an entire series. One of the most important things you can do in your life is to TELL YOUR OWN STORY. I want to take this moment to encourage all our readers to stand in their own truth. Create a circle that can hold you accountable. Let go of friendships that cannot leave the past in the past. If you are surrounded by women who constantly put you and yours down you need to remove yourself from such company. Remove yourself from relationships that rid you of your sanity. Take a stand on issues that you feel strongly about in honesty and truth. If you cannot set your self free of others opinion you will never attain that next level greatness that awaits you. We have locked ourselves up in a prison of secrets and these secrets are killing us by the minute. Of course we have to be discrete and pray for a spirit of discernment but at the end of the day no one will tell your story better than you. Your story is a journey. Its usually what sets you apart. Its unique.
Don't let the wrong version of your story being told stop you from walking with your head held high.



This brings us to "Meaningful conversations". Meaningful Conversations are life changing conversations. These are those conversations that address the stereotypes and prejudices that we face as women and most especially mothers in today's world. When you share in conversation with other women you realize that there is a real life healing that takes place. You also learn that most of us have very similar struggles and triumphs. You take charge of those very issues that hold you back by addressing them in a forum that is judgment free. I am going to take the mandate of holding
meaningful conversations on the road. We are coming to a neighborhood near you, stay tuned. My ultimate goal is to empower women as a whole, and promote a safe space to have life changing conversations in an intimate forum. This can be done by promoting meaningful conversations in our immediate communities. You don't need a fancy space, linen or props. Just get together in a coffee shop or restaurant and create a safe space to uplift, empower, and strengthen each other.

The most important goal I have set for my self is to walk my talk. We all can do this by standing for something. Take a chance and speak on your story. Share your journey with someone else. Share your own truth. You might save a life. Sometimes even your life.
I truly believe in the phrase "Nomamipikinleftbehind". Be the woman that you are raising your daughter to be or the daughter in law you will love your son to meet. Be an open book. Let your experiences serve as a bridge to walking in your purpose.
