Let’s talk about luxury, femininity, and bold divine energy — all wrapped into one stunning package: the MOCHA GODDESS EARRING COLLECTION, now live on SheOrgasms.com. Sis, this is not just jewelry. This is statement. This is identity. This is energy — and I had to get my hands on it.

So yes, I’ll be doing an unboxing, and no, I’m not editing anything out. Not the lighting, not the moment I realize I should’ve grabbed a razor (because real life is real life), and not even the little imperfections that make this experience feel human and authentic. We’ve all been there — and I’m not here to perform perfection. I’m here to connect.

Now let’s get into the earrings.

The MOCHA GODDESS COLLECTION feels like a celebration of every shade of beauty, every rich tone of melanin, every moment we’ve looked in the mirror and seen power staring back. These earrings aren’t just accessories. They’re a vibe. A declaration. A reminder that we are soft and strong. Bold and graceful. Rooted in culture and rising in our own individual magic.

And what makes this even more special? This collection is limited. One-of-a-kind. Not mass-produced, not something you’ll see on everyone. When you wear them, you know you’re wearing something curated for goddesses — and that’s a whole mood on its own.

Whether you’re dressing up, dressing down, or just reminding yourself who the hell you are, these earrings do more than hang from your ears — they speak. Loudly, softly, confidently.

So go ahead. Check them out. Grab yours before they’re gone. And join me as I unbox these beauties raw and unfiltered — because the real you deserves real adornment.

It wasn’t until the photo — the one in the blue outfit — was taken down, quietly replaced by a block of words, that I felt something shift. Something I hadn’t realized I was missing.

There had been so much wrapped in that image. Style. Energy. A vibe. But also, expectation. Interpretation. The gaze of others.

Then came the sea blue Red Bull moment — a chaotic blur, maybe misunderstood, maybe overstimulated. A glitch in the timeline. And suddenly, it was just… gone. No more image. Just text. Just words.

And that was the turning point.

I remembered the power of writing. Not to impress or perform, but to express. To be still enough to listen to yourself, and bold enough to let the truth pour out. Digitally. Authentically. Without filters, poses, or retakes. Just the page and the heart.

That’s when I felt the quiet magic of it all. Not the dramatics they do — the noise, the staging, the spectacle. No. This was different. Softer. Realer. Inspired in a way that didn’t need applause.

So, to that moment — to that removal, that shift, that silence that brought words back to life — thank you.

For reminding me that there is power in stillness. That writing is not a fallback; it’s a return. That storytelling doesn’t always need a stage — sometimes it just needs truth, and the courage to speak it.

And for those reading this, maybe it’s your turn too. Maybe this is your quiet invitation to write again. To reclaim your own narrative — one word at a time

Sometimes so much honesty and truth is negated to prove nothing else matters about honesty and truth.. because because because because luhve..

GREAT Night!

There’s a quiet burden many of us carry — one that isn’t always visible in our polished LinkedIn posts, powerful speeches, or perfectly curated social media feeds. To be African American. To be a woman. And to strive for — and achieve — excellence.

It’s not just about being good. It’s about being better. Sharper. Stronger. Kinder. More prepared. Because we know — deep in our bones — that we don’t always get the luxury of being seen as enough on our own merit. The bar is rarely where we left it. It moves. And we move with it. With grace.

We rise early and stay late. We carry generations of hopes and sacrifices on our shoulders. We learn how to navigate spaces not designed for us, how to code-switch in a heartbeat, how to advocate for ourselves without being labeled “too loud” or “too much.” Every room we enter is a performance. We rehearse the script. We smile. We show up — not just for ourselves, but for every other Black woman watching.

And still, we make it look easy.

Not because it is — but because we’ve been conditioned to believe we must. There’s an unspoken rule that we must be resilient without complaint, successful without arrogance, trailblazing without burning out. The pressure to shine while staying humble is a tightrope walk few understand, and fewer still acknowledge.

But here’s the truth: We are tired. Not defeated. Not done. But tired. And still, we go on. Because we know what representation means. Because we know that every door we open makes space for someone else to walk through. Because we believe that our excellence isn’t just about achievement — it’s about legacy.

So yes, we may make it look effortless — the degrees, the promotions, the accolades. But behind every achievement is a story of grit, sacrifice, and unyielding determination.

And still, we rise. We shine. We lead. Because we always have — and always will.

To every student crossing a stage, flipping a tassel, or receiving a diploma in the mail — congratulations.

Whether you’re graduating from high school or walking across that college or university stage, I want you to know: I see you. I see the late nights, the early mornings, the quiet moments of doubt you pushed through. I see the moments where quitting felt easier, but you chose to keep going. I see the strength it took to balance academics, work, family, and life — and you did it.

You earned this.

Graduation is more than a ceremony. It’s a reflection of everything you’ve overcome — the sacrifices, the effort, the discipline, and the resilience. And for so many of us, it’s not just a personal victory. It’s a family victory. A community victory. A generational milestone.

To those who are the first in their family to graduate — you are changing the narrative.

To those who faced obstacles most couldn’t imagine — and still crossed the finish line — your story is one of power and perseverance.

To those who didn’t take the traditional route, who returned to school after time away, or who doubted if they’d make it — you did. And you should be proud.

I believe in education not just as a system, but as a dream — a dream of opening doors, of discovering our purpose, of building futures we once only imagined. You are living proof of that dream in motion. And this is only the beginning.

So walk boldly. Speak confidently. Stand tall in your success — you earned every bit of it. And when you doubt yourself again (because it will happen), remember this moment. Remember the power of what you just accomplished.

I believe in you. I believe in your brilliance. And I believe in the dream — not just of graduating, but of rising, thriving, and leading with purpose.

Congratulations, Class of 2025. You are everything this world needs — and more.

As the weekend winds down, it’s easy to feel a creeping sense of anxiety about Monday. The emails, the deadlines, the early wake-up calls—Sunday night can quickly turn into a countdown instead of a wind-down. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

Taking time to intentionally relax and reset before the start of the week isn’t just good for your mood—it’s essential for your mental clarity, emotional balance, and overall productivity. Here’s how to build a Sunday evening routine that actually helps you start the week feeling refreshed and ready.

1.  Make a commitment to stop checking emails and work messages by a certain time on Sunday. Draw a clear line between your weekend and your workweek. This mental boundary gives your brain space to decompress and signals to yourself that rest is a priority.

2. Whether it’s lighting a candle, brewing a calming tea, or putting on a playlist of mellow tunes, create a ritual that cues your body and mind to shift into relaxation mode. It doesn’t have to be elaborate—it just needs to be consistent.

1. Sometimes, what keeps us up at night is a cluttered mind. Take 10 minutes to jot down any lingering thoughts, to-dos, or reminders that are swirling in your head. This simple exercise can ease your anxiety and help you feel more in control heading into Monday.

1. Take a short walk, some restorative yoga, or a stretch session can release built-up tension and help your body process the stress of the past week. Movement doesn’t have to be intense to be effective—it just needs to be mindful.

1. Resist the urge to stay up late squeezing the last bits out of your weekend. Instead, prepare for a restful night. Dim the lights, shut down screens, and maybe try a meditation or sleep story if your mind feels restless. A good night’s sleep can change everything about how Monday feels.

1. Instead of focusing on everything you have to do, try reframing the week ahead. Ask yourself: What do I want to feel this week? Whether it’s calm, energized, or focused, choose a word or intention that sets the tone for the days ahead.

Final Focus: Relaxing before the start of the week isn’t about ignoring your responsibilities—it’s about honoring your need for balance. A calm Sunday night can lead to a confident Monday morning. So take a breath, slow down, and give yourself permission to reset.

🔥 Gone with the Flames: When Nottoway Plantation Burned Down Digitally and Emotionally (With Love from Underground) 🔥

When I saw the headline—“Nottoway Plantation Burns to the Ground”—I did a double-take. Not because I was shocked it happened, but because the poetic symbolism was so loud it could’ve been written by Jordan Peele’s ghostwriter.

On one hand: it’s funny. Like, divine-comedy-with-a-side-of-justice funny.
On the other hand: it’s sad. Not because the building’s gone, but because of what it once represented—and what it could have been if America ever got honest about its history.

But then it hit me: this whole situation feels like a deleted scene from Underground. Yes, the tragically short-lived, soul-searing, genius TV show that dared to turn America’s greatest sin into a full-blown action drama with heart, grit, and gasoline.

Let’s talk about the digital sadness and meme-worthy absurdity of a plantation catching fire—while reflecting on how Underground already taught us everything we needed to know about the truth behind the flames.

💻 The Internet’s Reaction: Between Cackling and Crying

Social media did what it does best: laugh through the trauma.

• “Looks like the ancestors had enough.”
• “They said stop romanticizing plantations and meant it.”
• “Rosalee, is that you with a match and a plan?”

It was darkly hilarious how fast the jokes flew. But beneath the humor was something deeper: catharsis. Because digitally, Nottoway wasn’t just a physical space—it was an icon of the American habit of aestheticizing brutality.

It was Instagram-ready with its white columns and manicured lawns, but try finding a tour brochure that honestly mentioned the 155 enslaved people who built, cleaned, and died on that property.

That’s what makes the humor bittersweet. Funny that it burned. Sad that so many people only learned about it after it was reduced to ashes.

📺 Scene from Underground: “This Ain’t Gone with the Wind, Baby.”

Remember when Noah stands bloodied and bruised, still refusing to give up his fight for freedom? Or when Rosalee, in a corset soaked with sweat and determination, outsmarts every hunter, slaver, and trap in her path?

That kind of truth doesn’t live in the wallpaper of a plantation mansion. It lives in the people who tried to escape it.

In Underground, the mansion wasn’t the point. It was the prison. The horror behind the whitewashed façade. Watching Nottoway burn almost felt like the universe was shouting, “Set design complete—now focus on the real story.”

😢 The Digital Sadness: Screensavers and Smoke

Now that it’s gone, Nottoway mostly exists online: in wedding photos with suspiciously cropped backgrounds, Pinterest boards titled “Plantation Elegance,” and TikToks that play sad violins over burned rubble.

And that’s where the sadness creeps in. Because we don’t just erase history by fire—we erase it when we edit it to make it more palatable. When we choose aesthetics over accountability. Nottoway, for decades, was sold as “historic charm,” when it really should’ve come with a trigger warning and a reading list.

Underground never made that mistake. Every scene was steeped in the tension of what it meant to be Black, enslaved, brilliant, and dangerous. That show didn’t let anyone off the hook—not the viewers, not the characters, not even the system that tried to contain them.

🔥 Nottoway’s Final Season

In the end, maybe the burning of Nottoway was the final act of a long-overdue narrative shift. The grand finale no one asked for but secretly needed.

The fire didn’t just take down wood and plaster. It burned through denial, through nostalgia, through every “but my great-great-grandpappy lived there!” excuse not to tell the truth.

And just like in Underground, where fire was often a metaphor for rebellion, rage, and redemption—this fire feels like a message: You can’t preserve a lie forever. Eventually, something’s going to catch.

Staying Safe This Summer: Key Takeaways from the DAC ERT Summer Safety Webinar

Today, I had the opportunity to attend the DAC ERT Summer Safety Webinar, an incredibly informative and timely event focused on keeping our loved ones safe during the summer months there in Metro Detroit. With the weather heating up and outdoor activities on the rise, the advice shared during this session couldn’t have come at a better time.

The webinar brought together several local experts including a fire chief, police chief, veterinarian, and a pool safety agent—each providing valuable tips on how to navigate the unique challenges that come with summertime in their region.

Highlights from the Event:

🔥 Fire Safety Tips

The fire chief spoke about the increased risk of house fires and wildfires during hot, dry spells. He stressed the importance of:

• Keeping grills and fire pits at least 10 feet away from your home or any flammable materials.
• Never leaving an active grill or fire unattended.
• Checking smoke detectors regularly—especially if you’re using fans and air conditioning units more often.
  

🚓 Community Safety

The police chief shared insights into neighborhood safety during summer months, reminding us that:

• More daylight often means more foot traffic—and sometimes, more crime of opportunity.
• It’s essential to lock car doors, garage doors, and be aware of your surroundings during evening walks.
• Keep emergency contacts and family safety plans up to date in case of severe storms or unexpected events.
  

🐾 Pet Safety in the Heat

One of the most appreciated speakers was the local veterinarian, who reminded us how vulnerable our pets are in the heat. Some great reminders included:

• Never leave pets in the car, even for a short period.
• Walk dogs early in the morning or later in the evening to avoid scorching pavement.
• Provide plenty of fresh water and shade if pets are outside.
  

🏊 Pool & Water Safety

The pool safety agent wrapped things up with essential water safety reminders—especially important for families with children:

• Always supervise children near pools or lakes—never rely solely on floaties or toys.
• Install barriers around home pools and ensure gates are self-closing.
• Learn basic CPR and teach kids to swim from an early age.
  

The webinar was packed with practical, potentially life-saving information. Whether you’re planning barbecues, heading out on vacation, or just relaxing at home, staying aware and prepared makes all the difference.

Kudos to the DAC Emergency Response Team for organizing the valuable event. Let’s all do our part to make this a safe, happy summer Every Where!

1. Start with Morning Intentions

Set the tone early:

• Ask: “What would bring me joy today?”
• Use a simple mantra like: “Today, I choose peace and presence.”
• Even 5 minutes of quiet reflection, prayer, or meditation can shift your mindset.

2. Practice Gratitude, Even in Small Doses

Joy grows where gratitude lives.

• Keep a gratitude journal (3 things daily).
• Look for micro-joys: warm sunlight, a good laugh, a kind word.

3. Simplify Your Focus

Joy often hides under clutter — physical, mental, or emotional.

• Reduce multitasking; focus on one thing at a time.
• Say no to obligations that drain you unnecessarily.

4. Move Your Body

Even 10–20 minutes of movement — walking, stretching, dancing — can spark joy by improving mood and circulation.

5. Connect Genuinely

Joy multiplies in connection.

• Send a kind message.
• Be fully present in a conversation.
• Hug someone (with consent!).

6. Create Something (Anything)

Creative expression invites joy.

• Draw, write, cook, build, play music — it doesn’t need to be good, just real.

7. Accept, Don’t Resist

Joy isn’t the absence of difficulty — it’s the ability to feel grounded through it.

• Accept what’s out of your control.
• Name your feelings honestly; joy often returns after emotional truth is acknowledged.

8. Be of Service

Helping others creates a deeper kind of joy — one rooted in meaning.

• Offer a compliment.
• Volunteer or support a cause, even in small ways.

9. Laugh (Even if It Feels Forced)

Laughter physically shifts your body chemistry.

• Watch a funny video.
• Play with a pet or a child.
• Don’t take yourself too seriously.

10. Sleep and Rest

Lack of rest erodes joy at the foundation.

• Prioritize consistent, quality sleep.
• Allow downtime without guilt.

Bonus: Joy ≠ Constant Happiness

You’re allowed to have off days. Joy isn’t a performance — it’s a state you return to, not one you force.
