“But to each one of us grace has been given as Christ apportioned it.” Ephesians 1:2 God is always at work. But there are some days that God’s grace appears more obvious than others. You see, on March 16, 2020, I had seven stops to make. Yes, seven. And to put it into context a bit, this was already 3-4 days into California’s “social distancing” order due to Covid-19. While I knew that I should be away from…

Long before Cats & Mats Yoga, I’ve Loved Cats. It may be news for some, but for those that know me well, know that many moons before Cats & Mats Yoga ever existed, I’ve loved my little feline friends. As a kid, my mom and I would unconventionally rescue street cats in Oakland. I couldn’t resist their cuteness, and my mom couldn’t resist my love for them, so she made it possible for us to find a way to save…

Goodbye January and all of your madness… January 2020 was one hell of a month. From the impeachment trials to the coronavirus to the passing of Kobe Bryant… what is 2020 really about, God? I’m paying attention to the times we are in, doing my best not to fall into any of the mess, but it’s clearly everywhere, so I’m watching my steps. Rest when you’re sick… duh. I spent the first two weeks of the year being sick. It…
LA’s Grayest Day A Poem Dedicated To Kobe Bryant In Regards To His Passing Did you hear what TMZ said? Is what the text read, when we realized the world was about to be flipped upside down, emotionally paralyzed. I typed in your legendary name, as if I was searching for some F.A.Q.’s. Wishing the first article to pop up wasn’t confirming today’s truths. No! Was my first word. A shed tear was my first action. At this…
Say Thank You To Supporters Anytime of the year is a good time to say, THANK YOU. Say thank you to supporters, customers, partners, and collaborators alike. Similar to Thanksgiving, the end of the year is another highly appropriate time to show gratitude and thankfulness. I think we can all afford a few minutes and a few dollars or less to simply say thank you to those people that have made our year in life and/or business successful. Here’s 5…
iPhone 6s to iPhone 11 Pro Upgrade As a content creator, going from the 2015 iPhone 6s, to the 2019 iPhone 11 Pro was truly a game changer. Here’s the story behind the upgrade plus my iPhone 11 Pro camera review from a creator’s perspective. I told Rsee that for my birthday I wanted Fenty Beauty lip-gloss. I sent him a DM of the ones I wanted and everything. Clearly that wasn’t the kind of gift he wanted to get…
