What I read in February and quick synopsis of each. James Baldwin is absolutely brilliant. This book has been placed on my handful of books I must frequently reread. Stacey Abrams is brilliant, empowering, and powerful. Her memoir on her success offers multiple tools on how she grows both personally and professionally. I can’t lie,Continue reading “February Read’s”
Reflections of: Flex This with Brian Guadamuz
Quick reflection after recording with Brian. On a rare occasion, we a blessed with relationships that feel like a Divine intervention. I can say with 100% certainty, my friendship with Brian is exactly that.

Reflections of: Flex This with Lydia
Sometimes, when you have been friends or known someone for a really long time, it is really easy to lose sight of where you came from.

Reflections of: Flex This with Evan Weinstein

I’m my best pen pal.
I’m a believer in the power of words. I believe that the best (and the worst) things we have ever received are words. I’ve been slacking over the last few years, but I sat down and wrote a letter to myself. Jen, what do you mean you wrote yourself a letter? Glad you asked. ForContinue reading “I’m my best pen pal.”

Reflections of: Flex This with Eddie Blackwell
Last Friday the first episode EVER on my podcast went live. There is something crazy as surreal about watching a dream or vision inside your head come to life.

I do not take the power of ourContinue reading “Reflections of: Flex This with Eddie Blackwell”
