8 Apps I Can’t Live Without

Posted on August 23, 2019
apps

Let’s face it. We all hold our phones to a certain level of love and attention that some researchers may call “unhealthy”.

Is it though? I mean yes obviously. But speaking generally first. I’d like to think that our phones hold the answers to so much that to not hold it so near and dear to ourselves would be suicide on all fronts. I’m talking not knowing where to be, who you’re supposed to be there with, professional and social commitments, personal appointments, the ability to quick pay… I mean must I continue?

WHY I DON’T BELIEVE IN RELATIONSHIP GOALS ANYMORE

relationship goals

If you asked me a month ago about what couples were relationship goals, whew. I’d have listed off too many. Though these days I’m singing a totally different tune when it comes to relationships. They’re just never what they seem to be y’all. I think I’ve always known that, but I became more sure of that recently. There are so many things left to the imagination.

So very tired of being at the mall (a place with so much room) and practically going toe to toe with a total stranger insistent on walking so close to me. I’m frankly exhausted by a portion of society’s lack of understanding when it comes to personal space. So much so that I feel like we need to talk babes. There are a few things we have got to iron out when it comes to personal space. Continue Reading

WCW: YARA SHAHIDI

Yara Shahidi

On Sunday I woke up to the news that HRH Megan Markle, Duchess of Sussex had been invited to be the guest editor for the September Issue of British Vogue. In this issue, it was her desire to highlight the power of the collective. As women from all walks of life were recognized for their efforts to initiate as representatives of “Forces for Change” in their everyday lives. So when I went through the list of 15 and began to familiarize myself with those I didn’t know — I was pleased, but not shocked to see that Yara Shahidi had made the list. I mean she’s been my WCW for ages, it feels like. So much so that, I might have been more than a little salty if she hadn’t made the list. Continue Reading
