I create the life I want by living on my own terms...

Self love and wellness go hand in hand...

I continue to grow and expand who I am and because of that doors continue to open.
What makes you HUMAN?:

It has to be a balance of healthy mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual, and financial practices that help us become better people.

My mistakes, my tears and my fears make me human...
I was inspired to start my blog, The Young Caregiver, and write Plan of Action: How to Save Your Own Life – A Caregiver’s Journal because I believe sharing my story will help others.
What inspired you to start your business? What motivates you to keep going?: I was inspired to start my blog, The Young Caregiver and write Plan of Action: How to Save Your Own Life – A Caregiver’s Journal because I believe sharing my story will help others. I want to encourage caregivers that if I can survive my parents becoming incapable of taking care of themselves in the same week, they can also survive their caregiver journey. The caregiver’s journal focuses on the caregiver because being a caregiver affects you emotionally, mentally, and physically so making yourself a priority and participating in self-care is very important.
My parents always encouraged me to do what I was passionate about whether it was playing the trombone, becoming a cheerleader, writing for the school newspaper, playing flag football, starting a community service club, joining a sorority, and countless other desires of my heart. Knowing that I only get one shot at life motivates me to go full throttle. I would rather fail trying than live wondering what if I tried.
How do you create the life you want?: I control the things that are in my control. Life is full of surprises that we don’t know are coming, some good and some bad so in between those moments you must live as if it’s your last day. At the age of 13, I had an eight-hour spinal surgery, while recovering my independence was taken from me. That experience was temporary, but it taught me not to take life for granted because in one second your life can change.
What makes you HUMAN?: My mistakes, my tears and my fears make me human.
What's three things you want us to know about self-love/wellness?: First, during your most selfless state of helping others, you must make your self-care a priority. If you aren’t ok, you can’t help others. Take breaks and refuel.
Second, what you say to yourself is just as important as what you put in your body. If you speak down on yourself, you will accept it from others. Manifest positivity into your life. Come up with an affirmation that will encourage you and repeat it to yourself as needed.
Lastly, no is a sufficient answer. You will drain yourself trying to be everything to everyone.
What's something we can incorporate today to LIVE LIFE WELL?:: Give yourself grace and know that one bad decision isn’t the end of your story. You can rewrite your life and reinvent yourself whenever you want.

Metacognition! Take time to think about your thinking especially in fearful or anxious situations. Then ask yourself if your thinking reflects who you truly want to be? If not, seek change and reach out for help if needed.

I am in a constant state of embracing my flaws...
My three things that I want you to know about self love and wellness is that it takes time…. It’s practice to process and process makes purpose. Secondly, wellness is subjective to the person practicing it. It’s not a one size fits all.
What inspired you to start your business? What motivates you to keep going?: I started my business because I wanted to help people learn how to invest in their self care. Self care is an affordable luxury that most people neglect or think they have to go to a high end spa to obtain. I create products that allow one to create that luxury self care experience at home within their own bath or shower regime. What keeps me going is that aha moment my clients share when they release they are the best at taking care of their own well being and self-care.
How do you create the life you want?: That is a very good question, I feel I’m still processing creating the life that I want .For the most part I make sure that my self care regimen is very luxe as though someone else is creating my products. I take the time to enjoy nature, relish in fine foods and restaurants. Enjoying a movie. It’s about me bringing the luxe experience home.
What makes you HUMAN?: What makes me human is the fact that I am in a constant state of embracing my flaws. My flaws keep me humble.
What's three things you want us to know about self-love/wellness?: My three things that I want you to know about self love and wellness is that it takes time…. It’s practice to process and process makes purpose. Secondly, wellness is subjective to the person practicing it. It’s not a one size fits all. It's like a journey that people have to go on their own and along the way they meet who they are supposed to meet in that journey.
What's something we can incorporate today to LIVE LIFE WELL?:: The one thing I recommend that people incorporate in their journey right now is to live in the now. To live in the present moment. Stop focusing so much on the future. Stop swimming in the past- just breathe in the now and let the road unfold as it should.

My first delivery was long, painful, scary and stressful.
My first delivery was long, painful, scary and stressful. When my second pregnancy came along I refused to believe that I had to go thru the same thing again. It was suggested that I drink herbal tea.
What inspired you to start your business? What motivates you to keep going?: My first delivery was long, painful, scary and stressful. When my second pregnancy came along I refused to believe that I had to go thru the same thing again. It was suggested that I drink herbal tea. Problem was I couldn't find organic herbal loose leaf tea that I believed was right for me and my baby --- so I made it. My second baby came spontaneously at home, quick, natural and healthy. I realized I had friends and family that were looking for the same thing -- so I gave it to them. From there Hotty Herbals was born. I jumped on this path to create something I myself truly loves and share that love with others. This opportunity has brought so much joy to my family. They enjoy helping me build this company and support me. More-so, I am enjoying building a legacy for children's future, to have choices and opportunities.
How do you create the life you want?: One brick at a time. WIth patience, hard work, creativity, support and love.
What makes you HUMAN?: The ability to show compassion. Recognizing someone else in need and doing something positive to help them thru that need.
What's three things you want us to know about self-love/wellness?: 1. Give yourself grace
2. Continuously be on a mission to out-love yourself

What inspired you to start your business? What motivates you to keep going?: I was inspired to start Black Wholeness Collective due to my life falling apart. After reaching the top of my own success I realized I’d gotten there standing on fear, trauma, and my fragile mental health.

Short answer: sis, idk often and I’m becoming more ok with that answer, daily.

Extra: self-care goes beyond external things; it’s more about what you can replenish and internally do you fill in your own gaps.. think of it as your own way of internally hugging you.
What's something we can incorporate today to LIVE LIFE WELL?:: Place a focus on healing; If you’ve suffered from childhood, adolescent and or adult trauma know those foundations won’t rebuild themselves...beloved..
