Raising two brown girls in today’s society has been everything but easy.  My monologue is about how my daughter’s mirrored my own struggles with insecurity and being the ‘perfect’ girl.  It is a love letter and rallying call to empower my daughters, and other girls and women, to be confident in who they are and be courageous in all they do!

When you think of motherhood you think of all the things you can do with your child. You think of their future. You imagine all the places you’ll go together, people you’ll meet together and experiences you will have together. My monologue chronicles a journey that doesn’t end this way, and it all starts with my precious baby girl Brooklyn.

Have you ever made a #momlife mistake that was so monumental that you thought you would never recover from it?  I have.  My monologue talks about an egregious motherhood mistake that haunted me for years.  I finally got some healing from my regretful mistake during a dream.  Some might say it was all in my head, I’ll let you be the judge.

My monologue is about how I learned valuable lessons from good and bad decisions in life and how my daily adversities turned into success for myself and my children’s future. I tell my story of creating and committing to a plan that has given me a trajectory out of poverty and propelled me toward creating a major movement in corporate America.
