What a September! 🥳 Spent time celebrating all things birthday, before going into lockdown mode. A few things kept me there, run prep, litigations, opportunities, major gigs. I'm looking forward to the resurgence! Also, babygirl's first baseball game, yes I caught her a ball! ⚾️

And just like that, Summer 2026 is over! Twas so FUN! 😭 Spent the tail end of August ushering my "not so" little one into MIDDLE SCHOOL! 🥹 Stayed in the gym and outside, proof summer and a workout schedule can coexist. So exciting! Fall, show me what you got. 🍂

July was a love letter to self exploration! Saying goodbye to the home I built over six years, and hello to the new one. Cue a mommy-free stretch and real outside-activity energy: moving boxes, moving my body, equal measure. New walls, new rhythms, still me. 🗝️

Happy June and start of Summer! ☀️ Whew, so many changes happening through and around me, I am truly enamored. The biggest of all, my little wizard turned Pokemon Master is now ELEVEN! 🥹 I'm not crying, you are! Witnessing this new chapter in her life has been so beautiful!

May was quite the month for Miami's social scene. Dabbled in all things F1, Swim Week, and American Black Film Festival. Ushered a fifth grader through her last month in elementary. 🥹 Made it to the Village for my mango and brown stew. Danced more than a few nights a week. ☀️

April felt like space and expansion. Photoshoots, Easter egg activations, sparks of connection, and unfolding opportunity. Ended the month in new rooms with new c and a familiar kind of confidence—feeling aligned, trusting my rhythm and staying rooted in myself.people

March felt like quiet clarity. Building, connecting, being outside more than usual. Choosing myself, out loud, every day. Realizing that even inaction is a choice. Moving with intention, finding my place and letting what aligns meet me there.

February felt like avocado croissant breakfasts, Tiffany blue sweatsuits, and heartfelt community activations. Bouts of love, tidbits of grief, and moments of friendship. Missing my ancestors while also savoring newfound freedom and stillness. An open heart, no letting go 🫶🏾

What A YEAR January 2026 has been! 😂 My heart has bursted in new form, new friendships, new endeavors. Starting over is hard, regardless, I'm so grateful for the people who believe in me, who support me, who love me. 🥹 All it takes is one yes. Looking forward to February! 🤭

Happy end of 2025! 🥳 December was fun. Baselin' with babygirl. Babysat a pup name Bentley for a few. Rescued a fiddle leaf plant. Homemade surf and turf pasta while I relish on old Christmas movies and songs. Making memories anew with old friends and new ones. What a YEAR! 🥂

November felt like an exhale. ✨ I debuted Lights, Camera & Algorithm! at a film festival for rising talent, then slipped into some well-earned quiet. Celebrated with a Solosgiving—just me, my thoughts, and my annual pecan pie. The ancestors would be proud 🥹 Only one month left!

Happy October! 🎃 'Twas so beautiful, dived into different playgrounds, did some hot pilates, a lil pole dancing. Also, came to the realization that when you are the blueprint, there will be copycats and energetic cosplayers. What an honor but also, girlies don't play with me! 🤭

September knocked the wind out of me, LITERALLY! 😅 At 85% recovery now, but forward motion is still forward. All in all, I'm appreciative for life, having amazing support and health 🙏🏾

What a beautiful August! 'Twas spent easing off of Summer and leaning back into the academic fold with my now fifth grader! 🥹 Homemade ice cream sandwiches. Pilates. Mini weekend getaways. Photoshoots. A bit of outside activity. The works. Excited for my next birthday season! 🤭

July felt like... Boat parties. Ladies nights. Seeing old friends. Making new ones. Choosing. Creative Director workshop for the kiddies. Being received. Skates on the ground. Love in my lungs. Yeah... just like that 🤭 Being said, I'm looking forward to August, in every way...

I have a ten year old, y'all 🥹 So honored to raise such a fearless and kind soul. Birthday shindigs included detective work 🔍 and seafood boils 🦀 I also learned love without honor is betrayal.. And just like that, she's off to holiday! Now the real summer fun begins... 🤸🏾‍♀️

This month felt like a humdrum of excitement... like silences holding full sentences. Beautiful, right? Graduations and commemorations. Revisited Black Miami. Attended F1, thanks CashApp 🤑. Nurtured parts of my community. Celebrated the mama in me. 💕 And now I wonder...? 🌇

April was a month of creative flow— more films, more opportunities to volunteer, attended a paper-making workshop, even did a few photoshoots. Cold plunges to reset and recurls to refresh. A quiet spark formed in an unexpected place. Letting the moments unfold, come what May. ✨🎬

March was full of vibrant moments— went bouquet for bouquet 💐 🤭 and spent lots of time OUTSIDE! 🤸🏾‍ Received a portrait from a dear friend, shared some special moments with new connections, celebrated birthdays, and caught a few inspiring films. Spring vibes all around. 🌸✨

February bloomed with soft joy—hosted a Gyalentine’s brunch, returned to community spaces that felt aligned, spoke on a panel at FIU, and did a tennis-themed mommy & me shoot 🎾. Said yes to possibility again—and was featured in an art gallery. Love rang forth in many forms. 😌✨

Happy 2025! January began with a vow of silence, rooted in stillness. With babygirl away and a dear friend in town, there was space for reconnection—with self and the girlies. First timed it at LIV, "No ID? Y'all damn Miami natives" 🤭 All in all, the month moved with ease. ✨

Art Basel events, sudden loss, and a quiet Christmas marked December. Showing up for my family after losing my eldest elder felt sacred, followed by celebrating my mom’s birthday in New Orleans. Grateful for all the lessons, opportunities and the love as we close out 2024 🎄💕.

November was about balance! Still reeling from my first Halloween event, coming 2nd place in a track meet 🥈, and overall quality time with babygirl before holiday. A week of solitude gave me space to reset. Made it to a few of my fav local spots, intentional connections galore..

Welcome back pumpkin head! 🎃 After 18 months away from social media, I've learned the importance of stepping back to focus on what truly matters — family, growth and real world connections. Returning to all things social refreshed, renewed, and ready to reconnect! What a joy!
