✨ Champs Camp 2023 ✨
What. A. Day!!! Never in my life did I imagine spending the day with top @usfigureskating athletes — leading workshops on brand development, resilience, managing anxiety, and how my journey from being a Disney Actress to the United Nations Youth Champion (and everything in between) has led me here — to Team USA ⛸️😍🥹
I was SO inspired by everyone I met & I can’t wait to follow along and cheer for these athletes in the upcoming competition season! I even got to spend time on the ice & get pointers from the pros!
I’m in AWE of this life & overwhelmed by what’s possible! Who knows, Adult Figure Skating may have a new competitor 😆

I’m proud to #LENDMYVOICE and share my platform with Kyla Woods @kylainthewoods a survivor of sexual exploitation. When it comes to fully decriminalizing the sex trade, it’s so important to listen to survivors. We must provide victims with exit services and pathways to freedom while still pushing back on legislation that would let traffickers, brothel owners, and sex buyers off the hook.
Advocate for survivor-centered alternatives by signing a petition against full decriminalization at the link in my bio!

✨ It was SO special to attend the launch celebration of @saintheron Small Matter Art Objects: Glassware 001 at the estate of California’s first black architect Paul R. Williams with my sis @domfishback ✨
“A House Is Not A Home” (2023) was inspired by the iconic Luther Vandross song and each glass object is a testament to the strength, beauty, and vibrancy of Black identity framed by artistic expression and heritage!
I’m forever in awe of the intentional waves @solangeknowles x @saintheron is making across industries to center black excellence & advance the culture!

R E C O V E R Y is essential to injury prevention & improving performance (especially as an over 40 aspiring athlete) Today, I tried @bodyrollstudio & LOVED it! It was a 45 min guided session, in a private room, that left me feeling soooooo good.
Lymphatic drainage massage helps circulate blood and lymph throughout the body to promote detoxification. Rolling provides relief from muscle tightness, speeds up recovery, increases metabolism, and helps to reduce fat tissue and the appearance of cellulite.

Life Lately 🥹💃🏾😍🪧⛸️🙌🏾🌱
From Striking to Skating to Sweating my face off on the dance floor…..this summer has been all about making amazing memories w/ some of my favorite people!
It wasn’t always like this though. I was raised as an only child and was SUCH a lonely kid. I NEVER imagined living the life I do now. I used to think that I wasn’t good at love or just didn’t have what it took to belong.
The past 18 months have shown me that authenticity is EVERYTHING — and being a walking contradiction is ok! By letting myself be a tree hugging, figure skating, sword wielding, peace keeping, twerk in training, God loving, art making, overachieving, masterfully procrastinating, spirit baby….I have fallen madly in love with my life and found a tribe that loves me back.
I share this because social media can create an illusion of perfection that can perpetuate loneliness and make us feel more disconnected. I want you to know that if you haven’t found your people yet, it’s ok. You’re not alone. And if you have, hold them close…. tell them you love them, make time to make memories and don’t take them for granted. Live and love as if none of us are making it out of here alive….because we aren’t 🥹🙏🏾♥️
✨ Every now & then, it’s important to treat yourself ✨
I had the BEST time celebrating life with one of my Leo #besties @ijonathanmoore at @margotlosangeles ✨ If you haven’t been, it’s a whole vibe 🙌🏾

A couple of weeks ago, I was feeling heavy/stuck/cloudy so I decided to try out the @owlvenice 4 Day Reset! It consisted of 3 broths & 3 mylks a day (with the option of food off of an approved list) By the end of day 2 I noticed a significant decline in my sugar cravings and when it was all over, I felt brand new! I had mental clarity, was sleeping better, had tons more energy, and my stomach was no longer bloated.
Little did I know, the following week was going to be full of mental and emotional challenges that I would not have been prepared to face if I hadn’t done the reset. I 100% would have eaten ALL of my feelings & inevitably felt worse.
If you’re looking for something to help reduce inflammation, curb sugar cravings, heal your gut lining, or just change your habits — I highly recommend the @owlvenice Reset!

SAGE is out now!! May this music video be a balm for your soul & a reminder to REST.
SAGE was written as a hymn, mantra and testimony to the season of transformation and becoming that I am in. When I think about freedom, I see the smiles of my sisters and the vastness of their dreams & I delight in knowing that even when I have not been able to see myself or the path God has for me, I have been blessed by the Black Women in my life whose expansive vision and tender love always reignites my sense of divinity and self. So even when I am sleeping on myself, I am surrounded by people who will wake me tf up! Okay!
Honored to have brought this vision to life with my real life earth angels @kiahvictoria & @_moniquecoleman !! Our softness sustains me, I love you. & @kaylikimura thank you for your generosity and for always going above and beyond for the vision with your gift- so proud of us!

Nothing is the way it seems
Keep your doubts to yourself
I’m becoming someone else
Someone who has boundaries
Who no longer aims to please”

Don’t just think about it — BE about it. Whatever “it” is. You don’t have to have a whole plan, just the next step. If you keep taking small intentional steps, you’ll eventually find yourself exactly where you want to be (or someplace better) #stayMotivated
