hey friends, In today's episode, I rant about how I'm experiencing the "Sunday scaries" for the first time in my life and the unspoken struggles of working in person again.

But in all honesty, having a close circle of people who truly know you, support you when you're down, and show you what it means to show up in community, makes life just a liiil more bearable.

Heyyy friends 💌I did a thiiing- well I restrategized, refreshed, and relaunched a thiiiing 🥳Welcome to Becoming [REDACTED] 🌚 (previously known as Misadventures of Healing Black Girl.) In ep 1, I’m diving into where I’ve been, what led me here, and why stepping away from the work was actually the healthiest reboot for my creativity. As artists, we are ever-evolving, and part of that growth is allowing ourselves to rebrand, redefine, and check in as many times as we need to because that’s YOUR business to make sure we’re still aligned with what we actually want. Reinventing yourself isn’t losing yourself—it’s staying true to who you’re meant to be.If you’ve ever felt stuck trying to fit into yesterday’s version of yourself, this one’s for you 🫂Now your turn— what version of yourself are you living out rn? What are you feeling called to? Let’s check-in in the comment section 💌❤️‍🔥
