  • On Fridays we rep FAMU. 🧡💚🧡🐍
  • You’re exactly right. In collaboration with @femmeluxefinery
  • My 🔟 on marriage. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 1. Your relationship with God is a reflection of the state of your marriage. What state is your marriage in? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 2. Everything has proper priority. God first, marriage second. Kids next. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 3. Draw a circle on the ground. Stand in that circle. That’s who you have control over in marriage - YOURSELF. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 4. Working at your marriage doesn’t have to mean it’s a struggle. Read books on marriage together throughout the year, attend marriage conferences, GET COUNSELING - even when things are amazing. Both of you are evolving as people. Evolve as a couple and stay on top of loving that person where they are. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 5. Surround yourself with other couples with healthy marriages who can advise, pray with you during hard times & you can do life with. Stop living your life on an island. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 6. Men need a strong support system of other married men who they can have heart to heart conversations with. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 7. Married life can be as saucy, hot & sexy as you make it. If it’s boring, it’s because you’re settling for it. Spice it up! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 8. Date each other. Flirt. Take it back to what attracted you to them from the beginning. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 9. If you’re waiting for your spouse to change for things to get better, it won’t. Nothing ever gets better unless YOU do. Yep. Even if you are justified and it’s the other person’s fault. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 10. Forgive!!! Love keeps no record of wrongs. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Bonus: SUPPORT YOUR SPOUSE! Become best friends. Ask questions about things that excite them.
  • Real life post: I have a hard time setting boundaries. I’ve spent a great deal of time sometimes biting down on a leather strap as I have over-committed myself to something only to literally regret it later. I’ve come to realize my time and space I give myself to rest, unwind and have time to myself is not just essential, it’s sacred. I haven’t gotten it all right, but I’m making strides to be better and more intentional in this area. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What advice do you have on setting boundaries in life?
  • I’ve been to 2 states in 2 weekends, annnnnd I’m kinda tired now. Honestly, I had a blast getting rest (even with the kids) & getting inspiration for new things to implement. These days I’m all about the experience & traveling gives me a chance to experience something different. From foods & sounds to music & vibes - I love leaving my travels with beautiful experiences to remember. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Catch my experiences in DC now on YouTube! 🎥 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ PS: Shout out to @away for this DOPE suitcase. Best everrrr!
