One in three workers struggles to juggle their career and personal life, according to a survey by the American Psychological Association.
@simonesoliver says treating a relationship like a business project — or an “offsite” — can help you and your partner manage everything from reconnecting as a couple to figuring out the logistics of summer camp for your kids to picking out which movies you want to watch together.
Walking in my light today while embracing being a work in progress.
I’m honoring every step of the path and celebrating the quiet moments between milestones—the ones that don’t warrant announcements but deserve celebration all the same. ✨

This is the heart of what I do—and why I care so deeply about it.
My career path? Definitely not a straight line. ➿〰️
From @howard1867 ’s student paper to global media platforms and now my own consultancy & newsletter (Price Upon Request), I’ve always followed my curiosity and let storytelling guide me.
Just swapped seats—from interviewer to interviewee!—for @the_chair_agency ’s new leadership series. Feels strange being on camera but after two decades in media, fashion and tech, I’ve learned we grow most when we share our stories.
Across a series of videos, you’ll hear my insights and how my crazy blend of experiences shaped my thinking, my ability to spot gaps and make real audience connections.
More to come.

In my quest to find a signature scent, I asked @brysonammons , the perfumer behind @thealloystudio , and a fragrance insider @kuklakid , what actually matters now, beyond seasons, trends, and the idea of a single signature.
Between scent wardrobes, discovery sets, and a little oud… things got interesting.
Also: fragrance as a gift? Mother’s Day, graduation, Father’s Day, or a random Tuesday. Less risky than you think!

Poll: What’s your fragrance style?
Been thinking about that pivot post I wrote in my newsletter, Price Upon Request, recently… and I need pieces that can move with me. And not just one version of me, but ALL of them.

I keep coming back to this one piece that I can wear it a million times and somehow it still hits like it’s brand new.
It’s this @madisonsavile black shawl-collared boyfriend blazer. Buttoned-up without the buttons. (The founder is a finance manager turned entrepreneur so 🙌🏾)
1 piece, 5 looks… and counting.

Free Friday nights at @whitneymuseum hit different. 🖤
Linking with my bestie @kyndalmariestyle , connecting with friends I haven’t seen in forever @susyjacks@jaysylva , and the highlight of the night was a fireside chat with @asapferg . He moves through so many spaces: art, fashion, music, style, energy. The inspo I needed.
“I don’t wanna die empty,” he said. Same, fam.
“I’m figuring out my language… I don’t want to be influenced, I just want to create.”
Left feeling inspired, full, and reminded why nights like this matter.
I’m not gonna lie, I didn’t see me spending the first snowy Sunday morning of the season on a Bed-Stuy bookstore crawl. But 🙌🏾 to @marvbee for getting me out my PJs and putting me on to four amazing spots.
Spending my #gifting $$ with #indie & #blackownedbusiness was the move. Plus, she had the drinks flowing and I ran into so many friends along the way. 📚 + 🥂
The spots you need to know:
1. @adanne.co
2. @bembrooklyn
3. @thewordischange
4. @gladysbooksbk
A fundraiser for next-gen creative talent and a flash mob?! I was not ready 😂🪩💃🏽
Had an absolute blast at the @shoprepurpose reGALA, truly one for the books. @freschstyle
and her team are out here building real opportunities for NYC youth to learn, work, and get their foot in the door at the intersection of fashion and sustainability.
The energy, the purpose, the people are all a reminder of why showing up for the next generation matters.
And shoutout to the DJ @kyndalmariestyle for making me sweat out my hair. No one sat down at this gala.
October reminded me how good life feels with my people, building what I love, exploring new places, product drops, homie link-ups, Howard Homecoming, Savannah streets, birthdays and everything in between… all the things that make me smile 🧡
