My fellow readers and friends informed me that I left you guys with a bit of a cliff hanger on Part 1 of Two Abs and a Few Fibroids. While I do apologize for leaving you hanging, it was absolutely my intent to leave you wanting more. * Inserts Smiley Face * I would be less of a Writer if I spilled all the deets at once. And before we jump back in, I would just like to say thank you all for your kind words and support. It truly means the world to me. As I’ve written more and m

I procrastinated greatly with writing today’s #BlogLikeCrazy post. As I’ve pondered on the topic, I realized I had no clue where I wanted to start. There is a lot to unpack with this topic. Not to mention, I am not where I imagined I’d be on this journey and writing this blog makes that a reality. It took an extremely long time for me to become comfortable discussing and disclosing that I had fibroids. I began drafting a blog entitled, “Surgery Was Easy,” on November 20, 2019

Wowerz, when I set out to challenge myself to #BlogLikeCrazy, I honestly thought I would’ve given up by now and even though I am in “The Home Stretch”, it’s still hard not to. Here we are, at 5:24 PM, on a Sunday, and all I’d like to do is, NOTHING. It’s been a very peaceful and chill day, and, in that space, it is easy to sometimes allow your goals to fall by the waste side. That was almost me today, but we are going to keep the foot on the gas to FINISH STRONG. You see, #Bl

We are 4 days away from the end of #BlogLikeCrazy and I just want to say thank you so much for rocking with me! Some of you have read every single blog and I am beyond thankful! Words cannot express my true gratitude for your support but please know I am so, so, so grateful. Day 26 is entitled “All I Need Is a Title” because at or around Day 20 of #BlogLikeCrazy, the Good Lord legitimately dropped the remaining titles for all posts. It was in the moment, I realized the entire

Black Friday, Black Friday, Black Friday. The day often reeks of bad decisions and irresponsible spending. “It’s on sale” has to be the most commonly used phrase when making purchases during the infamous day after thanksgiving. Many shop for convenience while others not so much. I’m not sure where you may land on this totem pole of spending but my challenge to you today will be responsibility. Personally, I am challenging myself to do zero Black Friday (and Cyber Monday) shop

Yesterday’s blog turned poem addressed the difficulty of finding the “holiday spirit”, so today, on THANKSgiving, I wanted to dripple a little gratitude your way. Day 23 of #BlogLikeCrazy intentionally gave us space to feel whatever it is we may feel but today is a new day. Although the holidays can be difficult and your day may not be the way you’ve envisioned it, I encourage you take a moment, even if just for thirty seconds to embrace what you have. Embrace what is versus

The holidays are hard. The holidays are a tricky, difficult, emotional, and joyful time of the year. It is a time where we reminisce on the things that are not and the things that were. It is a time where we are alone and focused on feeling the things we feel. It is a time where we remember what we have and grieve what we don’t. It is a time where we think of the fund memories and joyful moments. It is a time where we think of the loss of loved ones. It is a time where we thi

Money, Money, Money, Money. They say you can’t live with it, and you can’t live without it. With inflation currently ruining the economy and our usual way of life, many of us are looking for more and more ways to increase our income. So today, for Day 22 of #BlogLikeCrazy, we are going to shift gears to discuss “How You Can Start Your Side Hustle.” Circa 2015 – 2017, I had no idea #KeyInspires would be what it is today. To be clear, I don’t make millions, but my “side hustle”

We are TWENTY-ONE days into #BlogLikeCrazy which means, we are very close to the end of this daily (public) writing challenge. Honestly, when I decided to participate in the #BlogLikeCrazy challenge, I did NOT believe I would achieve a blog EVERYDAY. I remember telling a friend of mine, “if I can just get back into the groove of writing, I’d be satisfied with that. I don’t think I can post a blog everyday.” But here we are, twenty-one days later, and I’ve somehow exceeded my

Aye, we are twenty whole days into #BlogLikeCrazy so I found it super timely to love on you a bit. Yes, Y-O-U. The person who works tirelessly to love on and serve others. The person who is super hard on themselves when truly, you’re doing a great job! The person who doesn’t give themselves enough grace. You see, today’s #BlogLikeCrazy segment is entitled “Talk Nice to Me” because we forget to provide ourselves with affirmations that speak life over us. We encourage those aro
