Summer Health Refresh
I talked about taking a break from advocacy and the stress of every day in my last post, and it’s something I continuously struggle with. For me, traveling has always been my way of letting go of the everyday and enjoying life. Now that I don’t have that, I’m having to find new ways of self-care. I’m intentionally carving in time for taking care of myself and thinking about my health. Here’s what I’m focusing on:

While I’ve always had friends of all races and ethnicities, one thing that has also helped me understand the Black perspective a little bit more is watching shows by Black creators starring […]
What is Juneteenth?
Happy Juneteenth, yall! If you’re like most people in this country, you probably don’t know what Juneteenth is, or why it suddenly popped up on your calendar this year. Like most Black history, the significance of this date was never taught in schools. In fact, none of my Black friends I asked grew up celebrating […]
