Aftermath & The Art of “Just One”
It only takes one.
One moment to change a life.
One person to speak up.
One act of kindness to offer hope.
Be the “just one” for someone else.It doesn’t take much—but it can mean everything.

Nice is Overrated
We’ve been taught to be “nice”—but what if that’s actually the enemy of courage? When being nice means silencing your truth to avoid discomfort, it becomes a form of self-betrayal. True leadership—and real connection—requires honesty, even when it’s hard. Let’s stop mistaking people-pleasing for virtue and start valuing authentic truth over polished performance. That’s where growth begins.

Love as a Verb
Love isn’t just something we feel—it’s something we do. It’s in the way we show up, how we listen, and the integrity with which we hold space for others. It’s not about grand gestures but about the consistent, courageous choice to act from love rather than ego.But here’s the truth: You can’t fully love others until you first love yourself. Until you embrace every part of who you are—your light and your shadows—you’ll struggle to love without expectation, without seeking validation, without needing something in return.Love in action is:
💙 Setting boundaries that honor your worth.
💙 Holding space for others without trying to “fix” them.
💙 Listening—not to respond, but to understand.
💙 Choosing honesty and vulnerability, even when it’s hard.
💙 Having the courage to be seen as you truly are.Love is a choice we make every day. Not just in words, but in action.
What Is Joy?
A personal exploration and evolution on the definition of joy and how to live it.
What If?
What if I told you that 2025 is meant to be the year that you are liberated? The year that you can set yourself free to be exactly who you are? So many experiences throughout life try to thwart that inclination- familial dynamics, society's fabrics, and "rules" created by communities' norms whether cultural, race and gender related, or religious.
The truly ultimate in happiness and bliss is exercising your free will.
Everyone Has A Divine Spark...It's A Choice To Embrace & Live It
I strongly believe that everyone has the divine within them; they simply need to make a conscious and subconscious choice to tap into it. If you think about it, the highest vibration commences when you are operating out of authenticity and unconditional love. And as such, your divine self is much easier to access, embrace, and live.
Often operating out of your most authentic self is hard given our life experiences. The learning and experiences have sometimes shaped “hard wired programming” into our brains that are hard to navigate around, or in some cases, even be able to self-identify. In fact, those that have experienced the hardest struggle with embracing leading by example, sharing their stories and lessons. At their core, those who have healed from difficult experiences and choose to overcome embedded programming are the ones who carry the greatest divine spark. They deeply understand the struggles of others and can see the divine in them even before they see it themselves.
A Call To Bring More Respect & Gratitude For All: Reflections on Breaking Free From Toxic Masculinity & Femininity
As the Thanksgiving holiday in the US is celebrated, it frequently creates an opportunity to take a pause and reflect. During one this time, I started reflecting on societal fabrics and how they can embed and infer how one should show up in the world. And how those perceptions affect how one shows up in relationships and then by domino effect how it shows up in societies’ systems. I am going to address this solely through the lens of my perceptions in the United States, as well as through the lens of how the traditional male and female gender roles play out as a result.
