According to thevacationer.com, 82% of Americans planned to travel for vacation in 2024... but how many of them actually follow through with the plan? How many of them actually come up with a plan?

It can be such a hassle, but not anymore because we can use AI to plan our trips now! Saving time! Saving money!... but is it worth it? I tested out two apps, Nowy and Layla, and even put Chat GPT to the test. Here is what I found...…

Since the beginning battles have taken place, shots have been fired, people have been wounded and an occasional stray bullet has caught a bystander slipping.

Another debate to be had at the family cookout. What are your thoughts?…

Life lessons learned as we wrap up Women’s History Month. Sometimes life is hard and on top of that we are hard on ourselves. Seeing everyone’s “life sizzle reel” on social media doesn’t make it any better. But know that history is made every day. You are making your own history AND if you feel like you are missing the mark… YOU can do something about it. Bottom line… stop putting yourself in a box.…

As black people, we have to recognize that our history reaches beyond the shores of America.

To say I love myself doesn’t say or take anything away from you. For me to openly support children with disabilities doesn’t mean I don’t support adults with disabilities.

Let’s celebrate James Armistead. A double agent in the revolutionary war that helped to secure the victory over the British.

I am committed to publishing an episode every day for the month of February. Join us as we celebrate!
Something amazing happened at the country’s oldest continuous public lecture series.
Sometimes all this technology mumbo-jumbo can be a bit much. You want to understand but it just doesn’t make sense. Well, today we are breaking down GPT-3 so even the least tech-savvy person out there could understand.
We all receive messages from the universe/God but you have to be tuned in and listening attentively in order to receive the messages. Most of which are directing us to do the “difficult” things. When you get the call though… it’s time to do it!

If you are planning your first trip or your first trip in a while, do your homework! Learn from our mistakes so you can have a stress-less magic-fest!
I didn't think that God's calls ever got dropped but clearly they must have had a bad connection. I don't know... Did we really think that Deion could turn around the culture singlehandedly? Did he really do this for the schools and the players, or did he do it to move to the next level of coaching on the backs of hopeful HBCU students and alum? What is going to happen now? I really don't know. What I do know is that South Carolina State University crushed Jackson State's squad coached by the legendary Deion Sanders, 31-10 in the Celebration Bowl last year. (Yes, the petty is heavy.)…
The theme this year is “Equalize.” Everyone deserves access to testing and essential HIV services. #WorldAIDSDay2022, #WAD2022, #EndAIDS2030

Why wait until January to start making changes and doing the right thing? It is time to start setting yourself up for success today.

If you see something, say something… Don’t be afraid to get help.
As the weather gets colder and we get caught up in the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, let’s take some time out to be a blessing to someone who is less fortunate than we are.
Persistent politicians, voting early, and bringing the family out for Election Day family voting field trip. The more you know, the better (the positive) impact.
Don’t forget where you come from, but don’t feel bad about leaving some people behind. Feel free to celebrate your successes without upsetting your circle. If they are for you, they can celebrate you too without getting in their feelings.
It’s time to make a game plan for your holiday calorie consumption. You can’t sustain sexy if you are gorging and gluttonous. That’s just not cute! 🤢
For some it is a phase, but for most, it is their truth. Outside looking in, let’s try to understand and accept the transgender community, especially the children. Growing up is hard enough when you are dealing with mean peers. Mean adults don’t need to be added to the emotional roller coaster that we call “finding ourselves.”…
We all breathe. But are we breathing properly? Have you done breathwork before? If not, you should (especially since you are still breathing and everything.) Try it… It just might change your life!
Today, take time to evaluate different aspects of life. Take stock of the goals that you have accomplished as well as the ones that are still on your to do list. Ask yourself these 5 questions.
Unless you just enjoy standing in lines and being frustrated, why not vote now?! If your area allows it, do your candidate research, take a mental health day, vote, and then enjoy the rest of your day.
October brings awareness of pregnancy and infant loss and the 15th is when we pause to remember the babies and their families by joining in on the wave of light. Let’s all do our part to raise awareness because every pregnancy deserves a happy ending!
