I recently attended an accounting conference where the keynote speaker was Ms. Kimberly-Ellison Taylor. Ms. Taylor was named the first African-American chairperson of the AICPA, a very prestigious title. I watched how laughter turned to tears of joy for the crowd as they understood the historical significance of this event. Blacks used to be seenContinueContinue reading “Being a Black Woman in Corporate America”

“I Admit…I Need Surgery”
November 17, 2016. I’ll never forget this day. It marked the first day that I had to have surgery. Ever.

A few weeks ago, a friend text me. “How do I tell the truth without sounding judgmental or super saved?” “What happened?” I replied. “One of my friends is considering getting pregnant because she wants to have a baby before 30. She’s not married. I’m just like you want God to bless you to getContinueContinue reading “Half on a Baby”
