30, Thriving, and Damn Near Edgeless 👀 If anyone asked me what life has been like since turning 30 last October, I’d describe it just like that. So it seemed fitting to make that the title of my first post from my newsletter, Pardon Me While I Elevate (PMWE)🙌🏾 Swipe for a few snippets of my first post and some of my current moods and feels. And speaking of firsts, I’m headed on my FIRST brand trip with a tourism board to capture content around food, art, and community. (so wild that I’m typing this. what is life!!!!!??) Can you guess where I’m going? Let me know in the comments. Hell, let’s manifest the next trip together, while we’re at it. You can subscribe to PMWE using the link in my bio. I’ll be sharing my thoughts on elevated living, travel guides/ tips, recipes, Black Business guides, and all the #SwankSuggestions ✨ I can’t wait to hear what you think. 🫶🏾 Tell a friend to tell a friend, please! pardonmewhileielevate.substack.com
