And so it begins...

November 19th, 2015 I felt a shift coming in my life and bought the domain for www.balancedbrowngirl.com. I wasn’t quite sure what to do with the site, but knew I was in the midst of a transition and Balanced Brown Girl represented the women I wanted to be ... the woman I was steadily growing into. After 3.5 years spent ignoring the constant tugging at my heart to go live with Balanced Brown Girl, I’m finally saying “f*ck it” and diving in head first!

Frustrated with my past circumstances, Balanced Brown Girl originated from my desire to create and start living a life I didn’t need to regularly escape from. With the help of therapy, I started to define what happiness looked like on a daily basis, and began incorporating more things that brought me joy and fulfillment into my life.

Balanced Brown Girl is lifestyle blog focused on sharing my journey toward creating a balanced, healthy life. Leading with vulnerability and transparency, I share personal stories and lessons learned along the way regarding mental and emotional health, therapy, financial literacy, physical wellness, and relationships. There is power in sharing our stories and my greatest goal is to inspire others through sharing mine.
