Godfidence & Gratitude
Happy New Year Dreamers. I wrote this in the last few days of 2023 but I still wanted to share… Wow its that time of the year again, you know the end of the year and I have so much to be thankful for and grateful. It’s honestly been a year of growth and dreams coming true and reaching new levels. I can say that my faith has been stretched and I’m so grateful because I’m walking in a Godfidence like I’ve never walked in before. Does that mean I’m done dreaming and accomplished every single thing I’ve wanted…no not at all but what it means is that God is…

Love Where You R
Tis the season of love dear dreamers! Yep…that means it is February and love is in the air…typically you think romance and partner love but love expands to much more beyond that…your family, friends, yourself, and I’m learning the space I am in right now. As a very big dreamer I tend to spend a lot of headspace in the future – the what will bes, you know, once you reach certain goals and dreams… However two thoughts and stories come to mind… The first is sometimes you don’t have to wait for this future date to come along and you can go after what you desire right now and…

Reflections & Intentions
To be read in the style of Bridgerton-ish circa March 2022’s post Dear Dreamers… It is the 31st of December, Year 2022. I can’t quite believe it, can you? Today is the last day of Year 2022…which means, dear readers, it is time for reflections… This past year was a whirlwind for Lady Ciggy indeed. Earlier this year I recounted about my move to a new city at the top of the year in the post New Year, New City and though I hadn’t clearly spelled out all goals or resolutions for the year the main focus was to move forward towards my dreams and living out God’s will for…

On this day especially but honestly everyday I would love to encourage and recommend you take a moment or two to reflect on all that you have to be grateful for. This blog is of course following the journey one may take to go after and achieve one’s dreams.

So today I just want to declare a big thanks to and for so many things: First to…

Happy Mother’s Day
Happy Mother’s Day!!! I just wanted to send a big Happy Mother’s Day to all of the wonderful women in my life. It’s not just my own momma that I think of today… My own momma is absolutely hilarious, honest, loving, so incredibly understanding, and continues to be someone that I can always go to in times of need even if we are miles apart. …but it’s also my Ma, Nana, my many Aunties, my Sisters, Friends, Cousins, my Godmother, and even my pastors, some mothers, and even mothers-to-be. I have been truly blessed to be surrounded by amazing women in my life. It’s because of the ladies in my…

Bridgerton’s Influence
In honor of the latest season of one of my favorite shows, this post should be read in the style of Bridgerton… Dearest Dreamers, It’s been quite some time since I’ve caught up with you and all I can say is that this year seems to be moving quite swiftly. I would prefer to catch up with you on a more regular basis but alas that was not in the cards these past few months. Last we met, I shared that Lady Ciggy has moved to Atlanta, GA in an effort to go after everything that God has in store for her. I will say that Lady Ciggy is continuing…

Rejoice!!
Hi there dreamers!! Today’s a good day. It’s Easter Sunday and my birthday. It’s the day that Jesus rose again. It’s a time of resurrection for the dreams that God has instilled in you that you thought were gone. I’m excited for this time and grateful to celebrate my birthday on this day. Lately I would start a conversation about something I want to do or achieve with the words “I’ll try” and my sister would stop me and say “Don’t try, do.” I appreciate it because it has helped me to be a bit more intentional with what I’m doing. In 2021, I’ve been able to make new progress…

Goodbye 2020, Hello 2021
Can you believe it is the last week of 2020? What a year this has been! To be honest, this time last year I had no idea of what to expect for 2020. All I knew was that I wanted to pursue a bit more goals personal and business related. I’m happy to say that despite the craziness of the year the needle has moved forward in both areas. It has been a year filled with so much from a pandemic and global shut down, injustice at a breaking point where people all across the world were in protest, and the craziest presidential election in my lifetime. These are things…
