There’s this word we hear all the time. It makes you feel powerful. It implies that nothing phases you. When people use it, we assume they walk through this world setting it on fire. I was all about it too. I was sold on being FEARLESS! Who doesn’t want to be? Who doesn’t want to […] Read more…
Confession: I’ve got nerve
Want my confession? The nerve of me. I started this site with the bold name of “Mama Motivator”. That was one gutsy move to say the least. You can’t set out to motivate other moms without being motivated yourself. You can’t inspire and motivate mamas to find their passion and follow their dreams if […] Read more…
Motivated Mama: Passion + Prayers
Today’s mama and I go back. We used to work together years ago. We have since both left the entertainment industry and moved on to other things. Until this interview, I didn’t know how much she’d gone through over the last few years. Through it all, she leaves us with some wonderful nuggets in this […] Read more…
Life Lesson from a Baby
Lately it seems like I’ve been seeing these same videos over and over. Either it’s being shared on the web or it’s on the news. I keep seeing a baby getting a cochlear implant and being able to hear for the first time. I’m not sure why I always seem to catch it. But since […] Read more…
When The Kids Are Older, I’ll…
Before I became a mom it was all I heard. The talk of the back burner being the place where my dreams would reside. Once I became a mom it was as if it were a given that the dreamer side of me would take some sort of hiatus. Well, you should know now. There’s […] Read more…

It was tough to be confident. […] Read more…
What Mom Brain Looks Like
I need to buy groceries, wash the Tae Kwon Do uniform, clean the house, sort through the clutter and give away lots of stuff. I need to call my granny, check on my aunt, follow up with my friend and get my daughter down for a nap. I need to pack lunches, research preschools and […] Read more…
Chasing Butterflies
There are some things, some moments that leave me feeling like, “yes, this is how life should be”. I love those moments. They’re always simple. They’re always free. I had a moment like that with my babies last weekend. We spent part of the day at the beach. Instead of spending all of our time […] Read more…

Is Insta Natural, Insta Good?
Just yesterday, I considered having a sale or at the very least, giving away some stuff. You see, under my bathroom sink lives way too many hair products. Since letting my natural curls flow, I have been in a “buy it and try it” mode that I’m sure has cost me a small fortune. It’s […] Read more…
