My husband doesn’t support my business
My husband Terrence and I met in 2010 at a work conference. We both worked at nonprofit organizations and were very passionate about our jobs. Eight years later, he’s been promoted several times and is more in love with his job than ever. I moved on from my old position long ago, and have not…
Why Married Folks Need to Netflix and Chill
Lately it seems that Terrence and I are always on the go. He works late in the summer, and by the time he gets home, I’m usually dog tired from working and running Ayva around all day. The weekends are family time, and thanks to our social 7-year-old, our calendar is usually filled with parties…
Quiet Boldness
You can be bold without being loud. Find out how my husband brings out his bold in this post sponsored by LISTERINE® and Socialstars. #LISTERINE #BringOutTheBold You know the guy.

The Power of Prayer in Marriage
Before I got married, I had all sorts of ideas of what it took to be a good wife. I was all, “When I’m a wife, I will never do that”, and “When I’m a wife, you’ll never catch me doing this.” I was so wrong, y’all. Marriage is about so much more than making…

When Fear And Work Get In The Way Of Marriage
Terrence and I had an argument last week. It’s so rare for Terrence and I to disagree. We joke around a lot, and are genuinely agreeable towards each other. He really is my best friend. Unfortunately, work is starting to interfere in our relationship. Terrence is frustrated because I seem to be working all the…
25 Things I Want My Husband To Know
Yesterday was my 2-year-anniversary, and being married to Terrence is still pretty awesome. Some folks say that the first year is the honeymoon stage, and after that is when you’re really able to tell if your marriage has staying power. If that’s true (and I don’t really think it is, but I’ll humor it) then Terrence…
5 Binge-Worthy Shows On Netflix For Couples
There are two types of married couples, those who binge watch Netflix together, and those who don’t. Terrence and I definitely do. It’s surprising, really, because when it comes time to choose movies at the theater, we very rarely agree. Eight to thirteen episodes of the same show, however? Not problem. Go figure! Our first couple…
