Don’t Rock the Boat…..

I’m with my husband on my first (his second) ever cruise. I was nervous, because I’d never been on one before, and I can’t swim. I planned out getting a motion sickness patch, antibiotics for the possibility of Traveler’s Diarrhea, and tried to prepare myself for what the feeling of the rocking boat would feel…

The New Normal

I’m not going to say that the release of Beyonce’s #Lemonade prompted this blog entry, but whatever……. 🙂 I have a dear friend who is currently going through a horrible divorce. She is a wonderful lady, phenomenal Mom of 3, and is well accomplished. I’m worried about her. I, unfortunately, have many friends who have…

The Follow Up Cometh……
Hey everyone! Here’s a little teaser to part 2 as I start working on it. I hope it serves as a nice appetizer…… Along with that, the image reminds those of you on Periscope that I’m on biweekly-once for #WellnessWednesday and again during the weekends, for #(No)Superwoman Sat. or Sun.

Why Social Media?????

**This one’s dedicated to the good Dr. Mani Saint Victor. We have some collaborative things cooking, and he wanted to speak about side-gigs and social media** I’ve been in this medicine game for almost a decade, and I wrote my book (How to Avoid the Superwoman Complex™) after about seven or eight years of practicing.…

You Don’t Have to “Woman” Alone.

As I’ve looked around at some of the incredible women in my environment and life, I’ve been awe-inspired by the examples of Moms, wives, entrepreneurs and single ladies I have. I wanted to touch on the wonderful support and cheerleading I receive from many of them, both near and…

#MochaDocs, what I do for a living and why

Earlier this year, I was excited to join Periscope™ and was so pleased to join the Mocha Medicine’s Facebook group’s “Pass the Scope” challenge. We answered a series of scheduled questions to introduce the world to what we do, who we are and what makes us unique and did it over 4 days. These were…

That Funky Cold Edema…….

I wish I could take credit for that title for my article, because it’s brilliant. It’s the work of the editors of Griots Republic digital mag, for which I wrote an article on safety while traveling. Follow the wonderful magazine on social media, @GriotsRepublic, and on their site, http://www.griotsrepublic.com. Here’s my article: Griots, let’s discuss…

Faith without Works is Dead.

Happy Sunday, everyone. I woke up with my children, bright and early as always (when do children realize they/the parents can sleep in on the weekends, by the way? I digress….) and turned on my favorite TV broadcast to get some Word. I’m a member of Union Baptist, but when attending “Bedside Baptist” (ie. didn’t…

“No New Friends”? I disagree.
#snowdayreflections #tribe Drake said “No New Friends,” but I beg to differ. I completely agree with loving and keeping your old friends, but over this year, I can’t express enough how blessed we’ve been to have met some of the most creative, compelling, inspiring, collaborating folks. They have motivated me to think outside the box and…
