HAPPY SATURDAY… Mama and CiCi are thrilled to h HAPPY SATURDAY… Mama and CiCi are thrilled to have their daddy back for weekend fun. He’s been locked up studying for the FL Bar for the past few months and our weekends have been me trying to entertain these two. We are so proud of all your hard work. Don’t know how you do it but after having passed the NY bar 14 years ago…I’m sure you rocked this one too. I know I could never take the CPA exam again(that was 18 months of torture), but you did it and we are so happy to get to enjoy our weekends all together again! #astoriainheels #momminainteasy #flbar #daddysgirl😘 #daddydaughterdate #haiti #blackfathers #westindian #mixedfamily #familyadventure #miamimomblogger #miamimoms #sflbloggers #momssupportingmoms #businessbabescollective #workingmoms #daughtersarethebest
LET’S START OFF THE WEEK CELEBRATING OUR ACHIEVE LET’S START OFF THE WEEK CELEBRATING OUR ACHIEVEMENTS… We don’t need to wait for a big milestone or big advancement at work, recognize all that you have achieved now…no matter how little you think it is. It’s easy to get bogged down with impostor syndrome, feeling our career accomplishments are not achieved by hard work but rather just luck. For instance, I almost didn’t apply for my new role because it was something I had never done before. I wondered if I could even do it, would I be any good and would the team really feel as though I am helping in any way. But then I remembered how much I’ve done and realized if I could master my role in accounting, this role couldn’t be any more difficult. Once I got past that I started with a positive outlook, I’ve been able to pick things up quickly and add value to the team. I’m celebrating how well I have transitioned to this new role. Don’t wait for things to be perfect! Define your own success and celebrate you! Lean into the confidence and you’ll soon be projecting it from the rooftops!!! Tell me…what achievement do you want to celebrate? #astoriainheels #workingmoms #careermom #impostersyndrome #momssupportingmoms #businessbabe #businessbabescollective #guyanese #trini #westindian #indocaribbean #momstyleblogger #miamimomblogger #sflbloggers #womensupportingwomen #womeninbusiness #careeradvice
WINE DOWN FRIDAY WITH 60% OFF… All my mamas kno WINE DOWN FRIDAY WITH 60% OFF… All my mamas know how much we are ready to open that bottle of wine tonight. I enjoy a good glass of wine but I always get the same bottle because I’m not ever sure what I’ll like and sometimes I don’t even have a chance to go out to get a bottle. With @brightcellars they make it easy for me to try new wines based on their online quiz that determines what you’ll like based on your answers. And they ship it right to your door! Now I can sip a Zinfandel from California one night and a Portugal blend the next…or both on the same night. No judgement here 😁 To all my moms out there, treat yourself to 60%off your first box of four wines with the link in my bio! I love a deal and this monthly wine club makes it so easy for have that bottle ready at your doorstep when you’ve just had one of those weeks! #ad #brightcellars #brightcellarsambassador #wineclub #discountlink #mamassupportingmamas #momssupportingmoms #miamimomcollective #miamimomblogger #winemom #winewinewine #momfashion #mommybloggers #workingmoms #workingmomlife #browngirlblogger #brownmom #creativecontent #heytherecreators

It’s combines premium botanicals with advanced grooming tech and it has a pleasant scent. This set is a great birthday gift, Fathers Day gift, or just because. And now you can find the Full Body Set only at Costco.com and you don’t need a membership to purchase! #ad #blackwoodformen #menskincare #menbodycare #bodywash #shampoo #conditioner #blackmenwithstyle
WEEKEND PHOTO DUMP… Even though I’m the only WEEKEND PHOTO DUMP… Even though I’m the only mom in this group, we still connect easily just like always. My friends were in town this weekend to celebrate our good friends birthday @_wendychoi We all met at a company I worked at in New York…one we all have since left and for good reason! But we stayed close and all moved all over the country. The person I was when I met them has not changed just grew. Since then, I became a mom but I’m also still that corporate finance woman who enjoys getting dressed up for girl nights out over amazing food, chatting about all aspects of life. We still have so much in common and I’m happy I have them in my life. They understand that I can’t always make everything and that’s fine. They support regardless. Becoming a mom hasn’t made me change my friends, I’ve just gained new ones along this journey. #astoriainheels #womensupportingwomen #workingmom #corporatemom #miamimomblogger #miamimom #sflbloggers #mommybloggers #miamibeachlife #sagamore #setai #boatlifestyle #momstyle #girltrip
LASH LIFE… I have always had extremely short ey LASH LIFE… I have always had extremely short eyelashes. To the point where they seemed nonexistent. I used to get extensions but I got the opportunity of try @betternotyounger Superpower Lash Serum for longer natural looking lashes. It’s been almost four weeks now and this serum is extremely easy to use. It’s also great for those with sensitive eyes since it’s non-irritating and hypoallergenic. I only use it once a day and already noticed a fullness to my lashes. Plan to keep on using it and seeing even a greater difference a month from now! #betternotyounger #waybetterhair #lashgrowth #eyelashserum #lashesofinstagram #momssupportingmoms #workingmomlife #momlifehacks #lasheslasheslashes #miamiinfluencer #miamimom #miamiblogger #miamimomblogger #sflbloggers
