Practice Vulnerability
|
Hi Reader! I'm in the midst of writing my next book, and in this process, I've been sitting with what it means to be vulnerable, not solely as an idea, but I desire to be vulnerable as a practice. I want to share a moment of reflection with you: Vulnerability is a request to be treated like I’m precious. It helps me ask for what I need. When I ask for what I need, I am able to move forward into and expand softness. I am able to trust myself in life's tension and the goodness that life brings me.
My vulnerability practice is to tell the truth to myself and to share truth with those I am in a relationship with.
Yes, vulnerability opens us up to both hurt and healing. But… That’s what the heart is for… to open us up to possibilities.

Hi Reader, I just arrived back from a month in Paris, and I did exactly what I needed: nothing. I leaned into stillness. I sat by the Seine, gazed at the Eiffel Tower, got really comfortable with something I like to call "*Second Nap." I simply let my mind unfurl. That pause has reset me. I’m breathing easier....
Black romance, a mini-pod, and a soft revolution. Sign up for updates on my forthcoming book, Real Soft Girl Shit: A Womanist Reclamation of Black Girl Vulnerability. Hi Reader, I’m writing to you from Paris. I spend a month here every year.

I wrote a little about how Paris is a particular,...

Like, I went to school to study the nature of God and how our relationships with God develop. Growing up Black Southern Baptist, the threat of hell was so real. Yes, in church we learned of God’s grace and mercy, but the threat of burning eternally remained a constant theme of discourse, even into my early thirties. As a Black...
