Black Boy Joy!🎓✨ If you only knew his journey-but God! 🙌🏽 Yesterday my son Sean @Sean The Official graduated 🎓 with honors from KSU! The tears he shedded was a reminder of how he got here! The road was not easy but he persevered! 🥹 God gave him the fortitude to push through when he thought his life was falling apart! These tears are just a reminder that our black boys go through so much just to be seen, heard, recognized and validated!

Exposure is everything. ✨ Last night, I had the incredible opportunity to bring three outstanding young men from my Check & Connect Program to the 100 Black Men of DeKalb Scholarship Gala at the beautiful Fernbank Museum of Natural History. Ian, Jaiden, and Zach did an amazing job helping to host the VIP experience and assisting me on the Black Carpet. They were confident, poised, and completely assured of themselves as they networked with some of the most influential leaders in our community. Watching these young scholars step into such a prestigious environment with grace and professionalism made me incredibly proud. Opportunities like this remind us that exposure is everything. When our youth are placed in rooms of excellence, they begin to see what is possible for their own futures. I am honored to be a part of their journey and to help create experiences that inspire them to dream bigger. Thank you, Ian, Jaiden, and Zach, for joining me at this unforgettable event. Everyone absolutely loved you! 🖤✨ A special thanks to Troy Vincent and the 100BMOD for making this experience possible and to all of my friends, thanking for taking pics 📸 with my babies! More content coming soon…. 🎤📸🤩 #CheckAndConnect #100BlackMenOfDeKalb #RichAuntieLori #ExposureIsEverything #MentorshipMatters

Guess who’ joining me on the black carpet 🎤 at the 100 BMOD Scholarship Gala! ✨ Your favorite educator aka “Rich Auntie Lori” is taking her scholars to serve as ambassadors for my Check and Connect Program at Tucker MS. We have been practicing shaking hands, eyes contact, networking and being confident in the moment! Trust me, I have not done this all by myself so I want to take a moment to thank Troy, President of the 100 BMOD for mentoring my young men. We truly appreciate this opportunity! See you on the black carpet! 🎤📸🤩

Changing Lives One Haircut at a Time 💈❤️ Now you know, I’m always gonna do something to make my scholars feel special!☺️ So this past Monday, my Check & Connect Program partnered with Barber Hearts, Tony Roberts of Tony Roberts Barber Studio, and Mr. Denson’s incredible mobile barber unit to create a transformational experience for 30 amazing young scholars. What started as one young man’s dream of becoming a barber turned into something far greater than I could have imagined. I promised him that if he stayed focused, came to school consistently, and raised his grades, I would help make his dream a reality. Today, that promise has come true. An internship was secured, barbering tools were donated, and a future was set in motion. I’m not crying 😭 you are! But the impact didn’t stop there. Thirty young men received free haircuts, meaningful mentorship, and exposure to the art and passion of barbering. The smiles on their faces said it all. They were grateful, confident, and proud—because in that moment, they felt seen, valued, and deeply cared for. This was more than a grooming event. It was a reminder that when a community comes together, dreams are nurtured, confidence is restored, and lives are forever changed. Thank you to Mr. Denson for bringing your mobile barber unit, Tony Roberts of Tony Roberts Barber Studio, and the entire Barber Hearts team for pouring into our students and helping them see the greatness within themselves. At Tucker MS, I don’t just support students- I help turn dreams into reality. 💈✨❤️ A special thanks to Mrs. Denson and Mrs. Lloyd for helping me carry out my vision. I love 💕 and appreciate you both!🥹 #RichAuntieLori #CheckAndConnect #TuckerMiddleSchool #BarberHearts #TonyRobertsBarberStudio

From Atlanta to SoHo with style! ✈️ ✨ Me and Sean had the absolute pleasure of traveling to SoHo NY as the honored guests of Marc-Antoine Barrois @marcantoinebarrois for the grand opening of their stunning new flagship boutique in SoHo. The atmosphere was nothing short of swanky—chic, sophisticated, and effortlessly luxurious. ✨ Every detail reflected the artistry and elegance that defines the Marc-Antoine Barrois brand. And the fragrance collection? Simply exquisite and truly worth the investment for anyone who appreciates timeless, unforgettable scents. A heartfelt thank you to Malika @malika_moussi and the Marc-Antoine Barrois team for the warm hospitality, the opportunity to experience your breathtaking new collection, and for the generous gift of my beloved Tilia fragrance. 💕 From Sean and me, thank you for an unforgettable New York 🗽new experience! #RichAuntieLori #MarcAntoineBarrois #SoHoNYC #LuxuryFragrance #Tilia
