We need to practice self-balance more than ever! #yingyang #writerscommunity #life #us

I did the @merriam-webster.com screenshot gif for my word for 2025 and this is what I got. I’ll take it #writingcommunity #beautiful

It’s been said that with every passing year…And I am so honored and blessed, and humbled that my chosen family, continues to want to share their narrative with me. You know you who all are here and IRL. Happy New Year’s familia 🤜🏽✍🏽💯❣️😘#happynewyear2025 #writingcommunity

Wishing everyone a Feliz Christmas & Hanukkah #holidays #writingcommunity #lights

I knew by the eyebrows and fresh cut. Grooming never lies! There’s more to this. #haircut #luigimangione #eyebrows

It really is #jamesbladwin #memoir #writingcommunity am I wrong?!

Ok. I need my own podcast. That moment when a director of a co, during an interview, says “I don’t like sleep. I live for this job.” Guuurl! Mami. This needs to be unpacked! Am I wrong?! #podcast #interview #writingcommunity #job

This should be a way of life at this point #socialdistance #protectyourenergy #goodvibesonly #happyholidays

The role of the #artist is crucial to life. Thx @jordanbpeterson.com.web.brid.gy for the reminder #wordstoliveby #neverforget #writingcimmunity #memoir

Great advice for every writer or anyone with a dream that gets rejections #elizabethgilbert #eatpraylove #writingcommunity #memoir #bhagavadgita #wordstoliveby #fruitsoflabor #writer

It’s good to be with family on #thanksgiving especially if you haven’t always been close. At my brother’s home #turkey #buffettable #family #food

Guilty! My #memoji got me perfectly. This is so me! Attach an #iphone with #airpods and it’s completely me! #AI is fascinating yet creepy and I’m also “animated!” 🤦🏽🤣 #apple

I discovered a new podcast #whatitsliketobe about my never ending curiosity with other ppl’s jobs. I’m excited yet jealous I didn’t think of it first 🤭 #podcast #jobs #people #writingcommunity behavioralscientist.org/finding-out-...

She’s correct! This reboot needs to happen, stat! #mudershewrote OR Murder They Wrote! I’m so down #jessicafletcher #writingcommuniry #angelalansbury #onlymurdersinthebuilding #ryanmurphy #truecrime #serialkiller

Things that continue to petrify me: adults that act like children and children that act like adults. I know there are terms for this. But we’re beyond that point #infantilization #parentification

This is so…🤜🏾 💥 “Just take them and leave me alone.” By #iranian artist #raoofhaghighi #womanlifefreedom #bodyimage #womenrights #womenhealth #herbody #reproductiverights #freedom #feminism #loveyourbody
