Despite the fuckery of the world and my fist in the air, on most days, internally, I feel weightless. I don’t always know how to place this feeling. I’ve had people question how it can even exist in 2022. All I can say, is that it really boils down to the origin story. The evolution has been internal. The elevation, witnessed by the worthy. Externally… if I’m honest, I feel most flawless without make-up, without hair, without nails… hell, even without clothes or shoes… Filtered by the star we call a sun. That’s it. Every line, every scar, every healthy, rebellious, “unlaid” hair. Look. This is how I came to play. And I do not fight fair… It is only when things are put upon me that I ask “but… what was wrong?” The answer, standing unencumbered in my shower, after all the unsolicited opinions have been washed away, is absolutely nothing. So you see, I am far from a TV doll. I am sea & sand’s unruly daughter. But if you see me outside of true form, telling a story in pixels that commands the chameleon — come back here, to this picture, to be reminded of why you really came to see her. 🧞♀️ (P.S. I have stunt training tomorrow. A draft of something to finish writing tonight. Pick up shots of something else to coordinate. I spent this afternoon on a mic. This post is not proof of free time. In fact, I was never here… 👻😂)
Pisces gratitude rests in any aqua latitude… and hair wash day has always been my plug. Really a sublime high. 🧘🏽♀️ A meditation that vibrates deeply, because loving on my natural state is an honor. An offering to the elements that made me. 🧬 Been natural most of my life, and never loved getting my texture ironed straight, or altered. Always knew from a little girl, that as soon as I got out of anyone’s chair I was gonna “baptize” whatever they did in the bathtub first chance I got. Taking nothing from beauticians among us who love their art, but there’s just nothing that feels more beautiful to me than my original reflection. Unmoored. Untamed. Primal. Adventurous, unpredictable. FREE. The twists and turns of NV — activated by Yemaya (water), and air-dried by the sun gods. ☀️ #NaturalHair #Beauty #Freedom #HairTales #Lifestyle #NeverChange

Thanks for asking… It’s exhilarating. You’re an alchemist in collaboration with an entire creative ecosystem. You get to bond with others on so many visionary levels. We can be utterly exhausted at the end of each shoot day — but the passion of everyone, my crew, my talent — pure joy. A creative legacy. It’s challenging and magical… And, I adore giving opportunities to people. Especially talented first-timers and friends I’ve watched work so hard on their crafts, behind and in-front of the camera. Big love. ✨🎬 #DirectedBy

Rest easy, friend. You taught so many of us “kids” everything we know. Guided our comedic and moral chops. Gave life lessons on set. Approached our woes with such candor and light. I’ll never forget your infamous 4 words in my ear my first day as a series regular “Don’t fck this up.”, and that mischievous laugh right after. A whole riot. You made us tough and soft at the same time, buddy. What a comet you are. Always will be. Much love. Julie, I wish you warmth and peace. Daughters, a village of Black women are here for you. The king is now a journeyman. It’s been an honor to know your family through his art. Please lean on us as much and as long as you need. 🤎

“If there is a heaven, let the waves chase us there…” -NV (Days like this 💖… We deserve them. Our personal Jurassic Parks — only a lot less chaotic than the game 😅. No dinosaur appearances, although I was really hoping for one! Settled for a gorgeous seal. ☺️) #Gratitude #LifeIsBeautiful

I read the screenplay for #Unfinished last year. I knew I wanted it. Everything about that world — especially the antithesis of curated beauty — was a playground after my own heart… Let me get filthy. Hair wild. Dark under-eyes. Allow me to mentally spiral, knuckle-up with the shadows. Give me the freedom to exist inside fragmented motivations. Let me speak truth from the beauty of a schizophrenic mind. This place, is where I play the hardest. This is where what I do, feels like creative gold to my soul. 📚🎥 (#UNFINISHED is streaming on @betplus right now. Join us in the rabbit hole 🕳!) #LifeIsBeautiful #LetItDoWhatItDo #ComeWith! 📸 by @meoshabeanofficial
THEE best friends in the multiverse!!! Wow. You joyful orbits who join me on this earth journey year after year after year! I am consistently blown away… This planet is chock FULL of golden people in every corner of it. This, I know for myself to be true! And if we are indeed mirrors of the people around us, then 🥺… THANK YOU for this wonderful gift @iamdavid.z! You, we, ALL of us together this past week, truly embody the meaning of #TRIBE! ✨🤸🏾♀️🕺🏽☀️ Love you, brother!
