A New York Moment.

I love going back east to ground, people watch and in a strange way spend time with my thoughts amidst the loud noises, sirens, accents from all over the world.

Life is Service Sweater by Snow Milk

Walking the Brooklyn bridge brought back that moment from S*x and the City where Steve and Miranda meet on the Brooklyn Bridge when their worlds were about to be divided.

Ultimately they choose love, united by this very bridge❤️

I was inspired taking in the history and thinking of people from all over the world who have walked the same paths.

River Views

Spent all day reading and discovered new books McNally Jackson

Also a shoot location from the Netflix Film Players.

I can always spot a good location and scene 🎞️

Got some new gear from Snow Milk amazing store and creative designs

The best Black Owned French cafe 🇫🇷

We all have a journey, don’t be afraid to walk the path that only belongs to you.

Till next time. 💋 ✌️

The Ebony 🍫 girlies got together to attend the first attempt to revive the New York Carnival Parade.

Now, it was not what we remembered from the early 2000s and our college days… there were logistical issues with the timing of the floats, consistent music, and barricades, where once upon a time, you could walk right in and join the parade.

Even with all of the imperfections and at one point hiding in the corner of a cell phone store because of gunshots 👀… we still had a chance to connect, dance, laugh, let go of life’s troubles, and just enjoy going with the flow.

Eating authentic food, having drinks, and seeing where the day would lead us.

A few Massachusetts girls in a New York world.

Vibes brought to you by the original ’90s bad gyals. 😏

Grateful for the still moments of summer 💕 ☀️

Taking moments to smell the flowers and notice their beauty 🌺

Learning new hobbies I enjoy but haven’t mastered, taking on the posture of a student of life. ⛳️

Leaning into summer soft stillness ☀️

Enjoying the most beautiful ocean views and sacred places 🌊

Enjoying fine art and galleries

Growing my own vegetables with indoor gardening

Learning nature is a reflection of humanity

Feeling the sand in my feet

Enjoying the view of life from a new perspective ☀️

NO is very powerful.

I’ve discovered how saying no has transformed my life and helped me reset my expectations of myself and others.

No has taught me about boundaries, self-respect, discernment, and making room for what I actually want.

Sometimes the perfect answer really is NO.

My new Substack series, “The Perfect Answer Is No,” shares more about what I’ve learned along the way.

If you’ve been looking for a little confirmation, this might be it.

Read now on my Substack. Link in bio 💕

Shoutout to all the dance teachers, musical theatre directors, music teachers, and visual arts educators pouring into the next generation every single day. 🎭🎨🎶

Thank you for building confidence, character, creativity, and reminding young people that the world is still a beautiful place for artists to imagine, create, and transform.

May your summer be restful.
May the choreography, cue sheets, songs, and lesson plans stop running through your mind. 😭

Take the break. Enjoy the rest.
…unless you’re teaching summer camp lol 😂 good luck.

The curtain is closed!
