Trying to put into words how much this book is a reflection of how I felt growing up as a victim of child SA by a family member and all the moments of trauma is so hard.

If you are someone that knows someone that maybe suffering in silence this book is for them!
Even if you don’t still get it because sadly enough you may know someone that is and you just don’t know. From Pain to Power needs to go viral so we can shed light to this topic.

I wrote this book and it took 2 years! Part of me was still afraid to speak my truth MY reality. I think because my reality will shatter the lie others have put in stone in their minds. But this isn’t about them! This is about me. 🤷🏽‍♀️

H-E-B I’m so upset! I just spent about 2 hours in the kitchen cooking dinner. Get to making my white cheddar brisket macaroni only to see AFTER I started that the cheese was spoiled. I just got it today. So the brisket I got from you all, the jalapeno, garlic, butter, and onions all wasted.

Ruined my entire night. 😒 then I had to make sure I wasn’t tripping and taste it! YUP SPOILED! 😖 my son was looking forward to this meal 🍽️

Today was one of those days where you just need a hug and kind words. You never know what someone is dealing with mentally. Your kind words can change someone's entire day

🌟 Just Because You Decide to Change Your Eating Habits Doesn’t Mean Your Food Can’t Taste Amazing! 🌟

Changing the way we eat doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor or enjoyment! It’s all about how you prepare your meals and the ingredients you choose. Here are some facts to keep in mind as you embark on your food journey:

1. Flavorful Seasoning: Herbs and spices can transform any dish! Experiment with fresh herbs like basil, cilantro, or parsley, and spices like cumin, smoked paprika, and turmeric to elevate your meals.

2. Creative Cooking Techniques: Grilling, roasting, and sautéing can bring out the natural sweetness and flavors in fruits and vegetables. Try roasting your veggies for a caramelized flavor that’s to die for!

3. Whole Ingredients Matter: Incorporate whole, unprocessed foods into your diet. Fresh produce, lean proteins, and whole grains not only taste great but are also packed with nutrients.

4. Healthy Fats: Don’t shy away from healthy fats like olive oil, avocados, or nuts. They add richness and can enhance the flavors of your dishes while keeping you satisfied.

5. Textures Are Key: Mix up textures to keep your meals exciting! Combine crunchy, creamy, and tender elements in your dishes to create a satisfying experience.

6. Explore Different Cuisines: Different cultures offer an array of delicious, healthy dishes. Explore Mediterranean, Asian, and Latin American cuisines for fresh ideas that are both healthy and flavorful.

7. Meal Prep for Success: Taking the time to prep your meals can save you from reaching for unhealthy options. Invest in some containers, plan your meals, and get creative with your recipes!

8. Taste as You Go: Don’t forget to taste your food while cooking! Adjust the seasonings to make sure each dish is packed with flavor before it hits the table.

Remember, healthy eating doesn’t have to be boring or bland. With a little creativity and the right techniques, you can enjoy food that’s not only good for you but also incredibly delicious!

✨ I’ve been doing a lot of thinking, y’all. For the last few months, I’ve been feeling off, dealing with more health issues than I care to admit. So, it’s time to get back on my health journey—and this time, I’m bringing y’all with me. 💪🏾✨

Now, my content might look a little different because I’m making health my new focus. If you’re down to join me, I’d love to have you on this ride! We can hold each other accountable, share tips, recipes, progress—the whole thing.

I’ve never been one to jump on trends just to keep up, so, yes, sometimes my content takes a little longer to reach people. But honestly? I’m okay with that. My “new trend” is getting back to healthy, and I’m here for every step of it.

So, here’s to new beginnings, prioritizing health, and showing up for ourselves! Let’s do this together, cousins. 💚

If you’ve been following me on YouTube, you know I had surgery yesterday. 🙏🏾 I’m praying for a fast recovery, but it’s been rough. I’ve had issues with my eyes for a while now—bulging, tumors under my eyelids, and constant pain. Yesterday, they removed my Lacrimal Gland, Removed excess skin, took some tiny pieces of bone out so that my eye could fit and move back in place, and more! What was supposed to be a quick day surgery turned into me being admitted. 😔 The pain is intense, and nothing they’re giving me is helping right now.

I won’t be able to cook for the next few days while I heal and wait for the swelling to go down. 🥺 To those of you who have called or texted me, thank you from the bottom of my heart. 💕 Just knowing y’all are thinking of me means so much during this time.

I’ve been dealing with this issue for years, and my advice to anyone is: if something feels wrong with your health, don’t hesitate—go straight to a specialist. 👩🏾‍⚕️ I’ve been told for years that ‘it’s normal,’ but deep down, I knew something wasn’t right. You know your body better than anyone, so trust your gut and get a second opinion from someone who knows that specific area. I’ve learned the hard way that relying on just one doctor’s opinion isn’t always the best approach. Your health is too important to gamble with—seek the right help from the start.

I look crazy as hell and not like me on these pictures but oh well. I hope this helps someone because this is the second thing that I wish I seeked help from the right people.
