Stop Waiting for Opportunity to Come to You

Sis, let me be real with you for a minute. A couple of months ago, I had enough.

Enough of waiting around for something to happen.

Enough of hoping that some magical opportunity would just fall into my lap.

You know what I realized?

Opportunities aren’t just handed out like party favors. They can be given, sure, but just as easily snatched away.

So I decided—I wasn’t going to sit around and wait for someone to open a door for me. I was going to kick that door down and create my own damn opportunities.

And that’s exactly what I did.

My best friend and I decided to take a risk and host our first women’s meet-up and networking event. We didn’t wait for an invitation to someone else’s table—we built our own.

And guess what? It was a hit.

We didn’t know all the answers, and we definitely didn’t have everything figured out. But we took the leap anyway, and it paid off big time.

So, what opportunities are you waiting on?

You’re sitting there wishing you had more money? Start the business, sis—I’ll be right there to help you get it off the ground.

You’re dreaming about having a circle of girlfriends to vibe with? Come to our next event and make those connections. ➡️ instagram.com/conversations2aspirations

You’re wishing you could tone up that body, even though it’s already giving tea? Let’s hit the gym and make it happen.

The truth is, nothing’s going to change if you keep sitting on the sidelines, complaining about what you don’t have.

Opportunities aren’t going to magically show up on your doorstep. You have to take the risks, step outside of your comfort zone, and make things happen for yourself.

You’ve got everything you need inside of you to create the life you want.

So stop waiting for something to happen.

Go out there and make your own opportunities.

Because the only thing standing between you and what you want? It’s the action you haven’t taken yet. So, what’s your next move, sis?

When The Truth Get's Twisted & You're Left To Drown

It’s incredibly exhausting when you’re drowning, flailing, barely keeping your head above water, and people can’t see it or don't want to. Like you’re out here fighting for your life, and instead of throwing you a lifeline, they’re either telling you to figure it out on your own or asking why you didn’t save them . Like… how? I can’t even save myself. And let’s not pretend this isn’t a thing . How many people battling addiction, struggling with mental health, or even unaliving themselves were treated this same way? Does anyone ever wonder how they got to that point or did they just detach and judge them? Were they left to fend for themselves because, apparently, helping them wasn’t anyone’s “ responsibility .” If it’s not our moral obligation to help each other—especially the people closest to us—then what’s the point anyway? Yes, there are situations people need to handle on their own. Yes, there are lessons they’ll only learn through struggle....

Sis, It’s Time to Rebuild and Step Into That Confidence You Deserve

Over the last few years, life has been giving me lessons I didn’t even ask for. I was married for five years (we’d been together even longer), and recently, my husband and I decided to part ways. I’m not gonna lie—this new chapter has been uncomfortable. Like, really uncomfortable. But it’s also been the kind of discomfort that forces you to grow. For so long, I felt like I wasn’t fully me in that relationship. Now? I’m rediscovering who I am. Which I guess is perfect timing because I’ll be 30 next year. I’m focused on rebuilding and showing up for myself again. 🫶🏽✨ And let me tell you, it feels so good. I’m starting to see myself in the mirror and recognize the woman I’ve always been. If you’re feeling stuck, unsure, or like you’ve lost yourself, sis, you’re not alone. I’ve been there too, and I’m here to help you find your way back to you.

Would You Take Your Own Advice? Be Honest.

You ever notice how people will give advice like it’s the key to life, but when you ask them if they’d follow it in your shoes, they get quiet real quick? It’s like they’ve got all the answers until the spotlight’s on them and it’s giving ‘Do as I say, not as I do.’ And, honestly, I’ve been there too. I'm no better. I’ve had those moments where I’ve given advice I wouldn’t even take myself. But self-reflection teaches you a lot about how and why you give advice and why sometimes, we need to check ourselves. Let's unpack that!
