Praise God for another day! I look at the time, go to the bathroom, check my Oura and Sleep 8 numbers, do a 5-minute breath work, listen to a praise song (usually the same one for a month), take my first sip of coffee, and settle into my morning routine … daily devotional, Bible, journal!

How has your relationship with your parents/ guardians changed in adulthood?
I’ve learned that the older you get, the wiser you become, the less conflict you want, and the more peace you desire. Thus, in my 40s, I learned how to deal with parents (in particular, my mother) who are not likely to change. The result is that my relationship became more about unconditional love and tolerance and less about what I need from them.
When do you feel most like yourself?
1. When I’m at peace and in prayer.
2. When I am in mother mode,… usually in my sweats and my hair in a ponytail, cooking for the people I love.
3. When I am in my business innovating and solving problems.
4. When I am doing anything with my roommate from college!
They are 4 different roles, but all the same self.
