Celebrating Black Maternal Health Week #BMHW25

Mom and three kids Greetings from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania! Things have been busy. I am still a working mom of three, working full time who is trying to make a difference. I do a lot of things and try to be present so that I can learn from them. I share them on this blog so that we can learn together. Below are some thoughts, hacks, and/or lessons that I have learned from navigating my world. Black Maternal Health Week April 11-17, 2025 I am a Black mom to three wonderful children. I was blessed to have three successful births. While I am an attorney, my third delivery highlighted the potential risks that occur when a physician fails to listen to the birthing person. Initially, I chalked it up to the physician involved and limited it to my personal birthing experience. Then, I learned that I was not special.

My Life...


Thank you for reading my blog. While I love writing it, I do hope that others read it and enjoy it.

I have a friend who works for Cover Girl cosmetics who is there now. And, because I am open to finding love whereever I might find it, I have dated a Black Soccer Player from South Carolina who was previously engaged to a white, Blonde, Swedish girl. Go figure?!

Until next times, thank you for visiting my world...
