āThe only thing standing between you and your goal is the bullshit story you keep telling yourself as to why you canāt achieve it.ā ā Jordan Belfort
I received a book for my 25th birthday that talks about our gifts. Our God-given gifts that should be shared. It mentioned in the opening chapter how we never truly feel fulfilled unless we nurture our gifts and how doing so is the key to abundance, opportunity, health and wealth.
For as long as I can remember, Iāve had the gift of gab. I would feel inspired easily and often and would achieve these tiny moments of enlightenment from things as small as a quick conversation with a stranger, to gazing at the stars in the sky. Iāve always had a natural ingenuity with words and after 25 years, Iām confident in saying that my gift is to make people think.
The B Werd has been a thought in my head for years now and if I couldāve snapped my fingers and had the entire thing rolling, I wouldāve done it long ago. Expression for me is something Iām tied to and I hope that my words turn on a tiny light bulb in your head to spark a thought, experience or change.
Iām undeniably a fan of women like myself. Women who are driven, outspoken, and experienced. Women who trust themselves and are confident in who they are. Those are the kind of women that The B Werd is for. The things youāll read about over the course of this blog will highlight all the other B-words that women exude ā such as beautiful, benevolent, brave and bold.
Over the course of the last couple of years Iāve experienced what has finally felt like āreal lifeā for me. That included a series of accomplishments such as graduating and starting my career, some lessons in love and relationships, unforgettable adventures and a boundless admiration for the young woman that Iāve become. Inevitably, with all things new and exciting in my life, I still housed a feeling of dissatisfaction. What was I missing? Well, I wasnāt utilizing my gift.
So with that being said ladies, letās talk.
Love this ! Excited for your posts. What book were you given ?

I’m so excited for you in this new season. I’m not going to lie I’ve been kinda stalking you on fb for some years now and have always admired you for the person you are. I’m sure you may not remember me but we had a poetry class at U of H some years ago. This has been a great read so far and I wish you much continued success on your journey!
Thank you for the well wishes and for keeping up with me! I’m hoping I continue to create some great content for you guys š
I remember seeing you in the Hallways at Taylor. High School and I always admired your style and your shoe game. Then about a year ago I ran into your Instagram through the explorer page. and I’ve been obsessing over your style and grace ever since. I must say this. I truly admire the way you carry yoursel. I can honestly say that I look up to women like you because in this day in age there are very few women our age with the same mentality that you have.
Just know that your hard work does inspire young women like myself.
Thank you so much for your kind words Brenda! I’m just here to spread the wealth š I hope you keep reading!
Looking forward to reading more! I’m inspired!
Thanks Tina! I’ll keep them coming š
