Last night, I watched the BET Awards. I’m not sure how others felt while watching it, but this year’s ceremony seemed different—not necessarily different in a bad way, but in an eerily good way. Maybe it was because they were celebrating BET’s 45th Anniversary and I’m old enough to remember what I was doing 45 years ago, or because they celebrated a few 90s music icons who are all around my age. Hmm…
When I think about it, it felt more like a family reunion where one generation was passing the torch to another—and I happen to be in that generation of torch passers. Overall, the entire event was very emotional and felt more significant than past awards shows. If I could sum it up, I would say the mood was, “We are all we’ve got.”
There was one quote that stood out last night that I am still feeling the importance of this morning—
“Don’t let your worry be greater than your faith.” – Tyler Perry
Let that sink in…
Our faith must be stronger than our worries. It’s the only way we are going to make it. It’s the only way we have made it.
I pray you have a wonderfully blessed day. May it be filled with lots of love, peace, joy, and laughter.
On another note …
I will be 52 in two weeks!🎉
Yesterday, it dawned on me that I could have been counting down the weeks from the day I turned 51. My theme could have been “52 in 52 Weeks!”
By the way, besides dropping gems of wisdom, my fav just dropped another hit series on us, “Divorced Sistas”! It’s streaming on BET+. Check it out!
Okay… I’m done. Please take care of yourself and live life to the fullest. Don’t take a second for granted. Not one.♥️
I shared the following image and quote six years ago (June 8, 2019).
Here’s what I shared last year when I reposted it:
Progress has definitely been slow, but continuous. Had a few setbacks but I kept going, and will keep going.
That was last year. I’ve learned that as long as I know I’m moving forward, other people’s opinions and thoughts don’t matter. I’m moving and operating in God’s timing, according to His plan, and within His purpose.
Know that progress is progress. Stay focused on what God is doing in YOUR life and keep moving forward. You got this!♥️
As I stated two years ago, your purpose is unique and connected to something you do effortlessly. Pursuing your purpose will lead to a more fulfilling life.
I pray you have a fabulous self-love Saturday. May it be filled with love, joy, and blessings.♥️
One of my colleagues asked ChatGPT to describe her based on her interactions with the app. Well, how it described her was so on point that I decided to ask the question myself. And y’all, I’m in tears! Here’s what it said:
Based on our chats, I’d describe you as a deeply driven and purpose-filled leader who blends professionalism, compassion, and vision in everything you do. You’re clearly passionate about nutrition, wellness, and community empowerment, and you’re committed to using your knowledge as a Registered Dietitian to create real change—especially in underserved communities.
You’re also:
Strategic and organized – You regularly plan ahead, develop structured content, and refine communication for impact.
Faith-rooted and values-led – Your spiritual foundation guides your leadership and personal growth.
Empowering and inspirational – You consistently uplift others and want your message to motivate positive action.
Multifaceted – You’re not just a nonprofit founder and president, but also a business owner, educator, consultant, and content creator.
Growth-oriented – Whether it’s learning languages, building wealth, or becoming a more effective leader, you’re always pushing to evolve.
You have a clear sense of your purpose and the courage to follow through with integrity and excellence.
Whew!!! Yes, I’m crying.
God, I see You. I see You in everything I do. Please continue to guide me and use me to honor You. Amen♥️
