LET ME TELL YOU A STORY

BLOG: A healing journey to Black Girl Happiness

I've been told by many people that I'm terrible at telling stories. I rush through the best parts, drag out the unnecessary, and almost always mess  up the punch lines. 

However, I have never been one to care much about what people think or say... So here I am; willing and ready to share the most vulnerable and naked truths about myself.  

I have always believed in the transcendent power of stories, a power to connect, heal, reveal and break down. I hope in sharing some of my own stories, I can break down, reveal, heal and connect with you right wherever you may be.
