    How I show gratitude

    Hey, y'all!! It's my birthday month!! So many amazing things have happened. So I captured a moment of gratitude for my city Sarasota. A few of the best things about our city is the beaches, parks, and history.

    Pslams of The Elusive House Wife

    Hey y'all, In this episode of Soul of Tha Matter, I share two poems from my book, “Psalms Of The Elusive Black House Wife.” These pieces were recorded at B.A.M Music Group in Bradenton, Fl. While recording these poems, I was beginning my mental health journey. Recording my poetry at the time was difficult because I had only worked with my husband in the studio and relied on him for creative direction when recording. This time was different I had to take the lead. The fellas, at BAM allowed me to do just that.
