Happy Wednesday Queens & Kings,
About three weeks ago I visited my second home aka the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture in Harlem to see the documentary on André Leon Talley entitled, "The Gospel According To André". Following the film, broadcast journalist, Tamron Hall graced the stage with André and the director of the film for a brief discussion and question/answer segment. The biggest takeaway I took from the night is to be bold, authentic and to live out loud. As mentioned by Talley himself, he is literally larger than life and commands the attention in every room he walks into.
I believe that when you are your authentic self, you are the most creative, comfortable and free-flowing being. The documentary was so moving for me because I am on a journey of being authentically myself and leveraging my passion to make change. I find at times that it is easier said than done for a number of reasons, but I have to start somewhere.
When in doubt go within, quiet your mind, scribe, meditate, breathe and trust in the process. You may be unsure of the path but as you walk the road of life, always remember to be BOLD, AUTHENTIC & Live Out Loud!
Sincerely,
A Being seeking the best version of herself
