❤️ Twelve years since we said goodbye. And yet, and yet, I haven’t spent a day without your love inside the marrow of my bones. ❤️That is the miracle made by the handprint of your life. ~ And so today, as I carried on, meeting a world of beauty and wonder, I made it my mission to let the joy of your spirit guide me toward shimmering hope, love, peace, and resilience. ✨We love you so much. ✨
If you know me, then you know I’ve been waiting for this day!! Huge congratulations @jopiazzaauthor 🎉✨🎉✨ THIS BOOK IS ABOUT TO GRAB YOU AND HOLD YOU.
For me, siblings are like stars. They are my past and my present. I am so grateful for their love, their friendship and their constancy. ❤️❤️❤️ Plus, no one makes me laugh harder.
✨You guys know I believe in advocating on behalf of grieving families. And it’s no secret that, among my personal and professional desires, I hope to help evolve our grief avoidant society into one that understands our collective need to grieve in community as we heal. We will all carry personal losses. And we will all process each loss differently. But there is a vital role the community plays. (Cue up Episode 8 of From Scratch on @netflix 💛😉💛) ✨To be human is to share the common and universal experience of loss. And, therefore, it is our collective responsibility hold each other up, in big and small ways. It’s empathic, loving and deeply, gorgeously human to acknowledge someone’s pain. ✨Amanda and I both know partner loss. We know solo parenting through grief. But we have also found our own individual paths toward hope and resilience. I admire her so much. 🥰 Because I know that every day she shows up in the world, she is standing her honest truth and navigating forward. That is no small thing. ✨So here we stand. Two different stories, one shared humanity. Honestly, I can’t think of a more poignant way to close out #womenshistorymonth. I am honored to stand together for widowed women and men and families everywhere who are moving forward in the face of profound loss. Together, in community, so much is possible. ✨✨❤️✨✨ @amandakloots
Rising, Resilience & Creative Revolutions ✨ Essence has always shown me what what was possible! As a girl, I worshiped the strength, wisdom, and beauty in its pages. I saw women at every stage of life SOAR! ✨ NOW THIS!!! My conversation with @essence unveils two powerful truths: 1.) Creativity is not a linear journey. Staying close to our artistry it can put us in a landscape of many possibilities. From acting to writing and podcasting, each creative pursuit is an opportunity to lean in with curiosity, authenticity and a willingness to grow. 2.) Grief can bring us to a deeper and greater love. Thank you to @victoriauwumarogie and the Essence Mamas At Work series for including me among women who are leading and changing culture and community.

Today’s @seeher segment featured @tembilocke, podcast host and author of the New York Times best-selling memoir “From Scratch,” which was adapted into a Netflix series. #tembilocke #fromscratch #netflix
Feeling incredibly grateful for the opportunity to join @thetalkcbs and share laughter, resilience, and the stories of women who have transformed challenging moments into triumphs. On the day after an emotional anniversary, I am compelled to share this: Women teach each other how to be resilient, how to show up, and how to stand in the truth of both pain and joy. I had the pleasure of meeting @Nataliemoralestv when ‘From Scratch’ was released, and I was blessed to connect with @amandakloots at a time when we both had valuable lessons to learn from each other. I am honored to be part of the @SeeHer series and especially grateful for the women who lift each other up. We all need to see women accomplishing incredible things, whether in their personal, professional, familial lives, or within their communities. If you can see her, you can be her. Who are the women in your life that inspire you with their resilience and joy? Let’s celebrate them in the comments below! 🌈✨
Some Mondays we just need this quote on repeat! Remember: We are all learning the art of navigation. #mondaymotivation
Stepping behind the scenes of @thetalkcbs with me! 🎥 ✨
Spring cleaning and came across this. My very first snow day. In Texas. ❤️ I remember that red beanie. 🙂
Trusting in your specific creative process means sometimes building the bridge as you cross it. ✨💛✨ I have been blessed to chart my own creative and professional paths with amazing teammates, collaborators, mentors, sponsors, and visionaries. And my own intuition as my guide. ✨ When starting something new, don’t be afraid to build the bridge as you cross it. 😊 Thank you to @inherwords_wie for having me on their podcast. …If you’re interested in women creatives, have a listen!
