I think we all have different versions of ourselves. We wear different hats in different situations and with different people. The public version of me, the girl in the pink dress who sings about sanctuary, refuge and vulnerability and follows her dreams? She’s definitely authentic and pretty close to the person I am when I’m not performing. Read more>>

There’s a saying by Ray Dalio (the founder of the hedge fund Bridgewater) which is ‘pain + reflection = progress’. I couldn’t agree more with that statement. In order to go anywhere in life, you have to put yourself out there and try. Failure is inevitable and it happens to everyone. When it does it can be extremely painful. Read more>>

When you go through a hard time – especially in business – it gives you no option other than to re-evaluate your ‘why’. Just making money isn’t enough of a reason to make you keep going when things get really hard. But your ‘why’ will keep you motivated even during the hardest of times! Read more>>

As a youngster I loved to laugh, anything funny on TV, I would watch. Especially the romantic comedies. The great man that’s misunderstood, meets the great, yet troubled woman in need of a knight. That was me! I could be a knight. I could save everyone. Especially the people I love. And that’s how I lived my life. Read more>>

The fear that has held me back the most is the idea of expanding my business into a new region or city before the timing and infrastructure are truly right. Growth is exciting, especially in a field where access to quality ABA services is so needed—but with growth comes responsibility. Read more>>

I hope people say that I spent my life giving God the glory — not just in my words, but in the way I loved, created, and showed up in the world. That every detail I touched, every moment I curated, every photograph I framed carried a quiet intention to honor something bigger than myself. And I hope they say I loved people well. Read more>>

For me, the difference between a fad and a real foundational shift comes down to impact and longevity. Growing up, especially coming from environments where resources were tight and trends changed quick, I learned early to look past what’s flashy and pay attention to what actually adds value.

This is such a great question; I think what breaks the bond between people is growth, because not everyone sees eye to eye, not everyone will understand you and not everyone wants to see you elevate or win or see you become a better version of yourself. Read more>>

While the underlying service provided is laundry delivery, most people don’t understand how much technology powers the best-in-class quality of the service. From delivery algorithms, to AI analyzing images and videos of each order for quality control, every step of the process is influenced by technology. Read more>>

I consider myself to be someone who he fairly new and green to the entertainment industry. Between being a live tv director, a rapper, and an actress the most important thing i have learned is it’s only up to YOU to make a place for yourself in this industry. Read more>>

As a professional poet, I think that people misinterpret AI as my competition. This will never become reality since poetry comes from the deepest part of ourselves. Whether you call that God, your soul, your heart, or simply ‘art,’ artificial intelligence is not in this conversation. Does AI compete with one’s meditation practice? Can it replicate the sensation of swinging on a porch swing? Read more>>
