I have two app ideas:
1. An app to help find hair stylists who specialize in black hair. This is currently done by word of mouth and needs to be updated.
2. A Help Me app for moms who are overwhelmed and literally need help in the moment.
Go make this happen, peeps.

Not to be rude, but this is literally the most Ok Boomer white man tweet ever.
1. No school is $4K a year.
2. Your fake number doesn't include any actual living costs or books or necessities.
Really great work by

What in the world are you talking about? Black Americans are literally risking their lives to fight for equality for all.
Native Americans know who is on their side.
Also I’m very hopeful that Native Americans will get a seat in Congress/house of reps.
Today is the biggest day in our family; a year ago today we met our baby girl. I wish I could explain all of these feelings and emotions but there aren't enough words in the dictionary.
I LOVE YOU ALL!!!!!!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!!
Doing skin to skin time with our adopted newborn 👶 girl is literally the greatest thing I’ve ever experienced. (Ps - that’s my husband in the photo, not me 😂)
This L’eggs trending topic has me reeling.
In 1994, I was told by my boss to return a work suit I had purchased because it had pants and women weren’t allowed to wear pants to business meetings.
My friend got sent home for wearing green pantyhose instead of nude.

I think the idea of hacking this is boomer territory. I have no issue with city college but ignoring life costs in an equation on how many hours you have to work to pay it off is incorrect.
Also your concept that all city colleges are equal is skewed.
I am very much looking for a new job, but I’m also taking time to find the right fit for me. I am a huge revenue impacting workhorse, I’m not taking a job at a company where the CEO wants to “make me cry” by the end of the interview.
I am very, scary good at what I do. But I…

Don’t get mad at me that these hacks and math are coming across as rich folk talk.
Live at home, go to a 2-year school is already most people’s plan. Going into trade school isn’t a hack. It’s what millions of lower income families do to survive. And join military.
I have a job interview coming up that I am super stoked about. Perfect alignment with my expertise, an area I care about AND an incredibly dynamic leadership team.
Yay!!!!

Bam! Booked a keynote! Y’all don’t even know what’s about to go down. My exclusive specialty? I spent 9 years with newswire content and data. I know what can be done and what people are not doing today. It’s on!

Ok peeps, we need some prayers and paperwork magic that our interstate pact (adoption forms) finalize today. We want to go home! Also here is your

A FB friend sadly noted that they were 40, unmarried, no kids and sad they were off their path. I had to chime in.
PEOPLE!! LIFE IS LONG. It is SO LONG. I got married at 47, and we adopted at 48. At 35, I thought it was all over. I WAS WRONG.
Life is long. Go make it yours!
Y’all.

Ha! That reminds of the time THE WORST WOMAN asked me to recommend people to work with her. I got write back “absolutely not. You’re the most dangerous, toxic boss I’ve ever had” I still revel in this moment. She hasn’t reached out since!
My dad passed away today, after spending the day with his family. The last time I visited,

spent all of her time playing or napping with him. 💕💕😢💕💕
My dad passed away and his best friend asked to stay in our lives. Best decision ever. Here we are catching up with Grandpa Larry and Grandma Betty, social distance style! Six feet away at all times.

This is ridiculous. This a grown man living in NYC, how has he never heard Spanish spoken? And at his age, why does he think he is paying for others to live? With his measly salary? NYers paid for his school with their taxes. Where’s his apology? His family must be mortified
This is the one I meant to reply to! Because look at those gorgeous smiles! Happy mama, happy baby. Congrats

and not me, I have an 8-month-old baby girl so I appreciate this insight! You are the second person to tell me that ages 2, 3 4 etc were even better. I can't wait! Meet Kaya!
Send some good vibes our way. The first legal step in our adoption happens today. SO MANY STEPS. And so worth every damn one of them. I am so blessed. We are so blessed.
I wonder how long this boy will suffer because of this trauma. Imagine being FALSELY (video shows he did not grope her) accused of assault and having the cops called on you in a time when all you hear is that cops kill innocent Black people.

We're scheduling our final adoption agency follow-up meeting today. I can't believe it. Still a lot of legal steps to take but we are so much closer to done. My heart! My heart!!
Baby is home sick today while I job search. I asked her what I should do with my life. Without a second or hesitation she replied “You could clean the house”
I’ll be offline for a bit as I recover from this burn.

Hush now. His experience is his own to define. As a white woman with an adopted Black child, his words are for me to hear - and I welcome them. This isn’t disrespect. This is data.
I just sent out invites via FB and email to Kaya's first birthday party. If you're in LA and did not get one, holler back at me.
Now I wait for at least one person to RSVP. What if no one shows up? SO MANY FEARS!
