Yesterday, a friend of mine shared a post asking w Yesterday, a friend of mine shared a post asking what grade you were in when you had your first Black teacher.⁣⁣⁣I was in second grade. ⁣⁣⁣Mrs. Delevoe was one of my favorite teachers. In her class, I discovered my love for reading and writing.⁣⁣⁣One day, she wrote a word on the board, and asked the class what it said.⁣⁣⁣I confidently shouted “COMPASSION!!”. ⁣⁣⁣But I was incorrect. The word she wrote was “COMPREHENSION.”⁣⁣⁣I don’t know why I remember this moment so vividly. I think it may be my earliest memory of being wrong.⁣⁣⁣This week made me realize I’ve been wrong a lot. There are things I thought I knew about race — things I learned from a textbook or my own privileged experiences.⁣⁣⁣But I didn’t know the depths of the problem. I didn’t understand. I didn’t comprehend.⁣⁣⁣Now I see that both comprehension and compassion are part of the solution. We need to read, listen, act. We need to have heart and empathy on our path to equality. ⁣⁣⁣I was lucky enough to have Mrs. Delevoe for 3rd grade, too. Here we are on the last day of school in 1999. ⁣⁣⁣Sadly, Mrs. Delevoe died in 2016, but she’s still teaching me as I look back on this photo. I love that she’s holding up a peace sign.⁣⁣It’s time for justice. It’s time for peace.
⁣Yesterday, I went down a YouTube rabbit hole wa ⁣Yesterday, I went down a YouTube rabbit hole watching performances by some of my favorite Black musicians.⁣ 💜⁣⁣⁣I found this clip from the 2004 GRAMMYs where Prince sang “Purple Rain” with a newly-solo Beyoncé. 👑 ⁣⁣⁣⁣I’d never seen it before, so I had it on repeat for a bit 😍 Then I realized something that really moved me...⁣⁣⁣⁣Beyoncé is from Houston, where George Floyd grew up.⁣⁣Prince is from Minneapolis, where George Floyd died.⁣⁣⁣⁣That just made stumbling into this forgotten clip a little more poignant. I had to share it. ⁣🙏 ⁣⁣⁣P.S. Beyoncé won five GRAMMYs that night 👏

⁣ Okay friends... I’ve been slacking a bit 😳⁣⁣⁣A few months ago, I started a content series called #TellMeWhyWednesdays where I answered why-related marketing questions (and wore pink, for obvious reasons) 💅⁣⁣⁣And suddenly, I stopped doing them. I know... ain’t nothin’ but a heartache 💔⁣⁣⁣But my friend @tonyrsanders has inspired me to pick this back up and to hold myself accountable! 🙋🏻‍♀️⁣⁣⁣SoOoOooo I need your help 🙏⁣⁣⁣What’s a WHY question you have about marketing or branding? For example: why do I need an email list?⁣⁣⁣Sound off below and I’ll be prepared to tackle your questions on video, no matter how awkward I am!👇⁣⁣⁣⁣Thank youuu 😘

The ironic thing about this post is that when I fi The ironic thing about this post is that when I first got an AOL screen name in 1995, my parents told me two things:.1. Don’t tell anyone your name ❌2. Don’t send anyone your picture ❌.Now, all I do is use the internet to build my name and my brand. OH, I also get in cars with strangers (thanks, @Uber). How times have changed! 🤯.Social media can be a place to share dog photos, memes, or Boomerangs from brunch, but there’s also SO. MUCH. OPPORTUNITY you can unlock. 😍.I’ve collaborated with so many strangers on social media who now feel like close friends. And they’ve helped me grow my brand in ways I never expected. ✨.What will you do with social media? The power is in your hands... literally! 👏 don’t overlook all the amazing things it can do to change your life. [end sappy post].P.S. what was your first screen name? Mine was BSBabes5. Surprised? 😂......#thebloggerunion #womenwithaplan #womenwhoblog #sflblogger #sflbloggers #90slife #90stech #90s #nostalgic90s #90skidsonly #early00s #90sculture #90spopculture #vintagetech #vintagetechnology #garyveechallenge #motivatedmindset #mondaymotivationalquote #motivationquotesoftheday #womenwhopodcast #savvybusinessowners #smallbusinessownersclub #gogetters #aolinstantmessenger #southfloridabloggers #southfloridacreatives #justbegin #bigmagic #personalbranding101 #womenwithaplan
