Hello, and welcome to Girl in Htown! If you’ve been here before, you might notice things changing—and that’s intentional. This blog has always allowed me to share my experiences, insights, and passions. But as I’ve grown, so has my vision for this platform.
I’m in a rebranding phase—a fresh start that mirrors the new chapters unfolding in my life. The focus shifts to themes that resonate deeply with where I am today: health, career, travel, entrepreneurship, and social justice. Let me share why these areas matter so much to me and what you can expect moving forward.
Prioritizing My Health
In recent months, I’ve been grappling with the realities of being diagnosed as pre-diabetic. Coupled with noticeable weight gain and a lingering sense of fatigue, it became clear that I needed to take control of my health. This blog will document my journey toward feeling better physically and mentally. From meal plans and exercise routines to reflections on self-discipline and body positivity, I’ll be sharing it all—not as an expert, but as someone navigating this path in real time.
Career Growth and Ambitions
My career has always been a significant part of my identity. As a call center manager with over 15 years of experience, I’ve reached professional milestones that I’m incredibly proud of. Now, I’m aiming even higher. This space will explore what it takes to rise in your career—the lessons, the setbacks, and the small victories that add up to big success. Whether it’s tips for managing a team, navigating workplace politics, or achieving work-life balance, I’ll cover it all with transparency and practicality.
The Joy of Travel
Travel is more than a luxury; it’s a source of inspiration and growth. Whether it’s a weekend road trip or an international adventure, exploring new places fuels my creativity and broadens my perspective. I’ll be sharing itineraries, budget travel hacks, and reflections on the transformative power of stepping out of your comfort zone.
Building a Side Business
The dream of entrepreneurship has always been in my heart. As I work to build a side business that aligns with my values and passions, I’ll take you behind the scenes. From brainstorming ideas to navigating challenges, I want this blog to be a resource for anyone thinking about starting something of their own. Spoiler alert: it’s not easy, but it’s worth it.
Fighting for Justice
As a Black woman, I cannot ignore the systemic injustices faced by Black and Brown communities. I’m deeply committed to shedding light on these issues, amplifying marginalized voices, and sparking conversations about equity and fairness. Additionally, I’ll be addressing my growing concerns about the American government’s shift toward oligarchy and what that means for democracy, especially for underrepresented communities. Expect thoughtful, actionable content that encourages awareness and advocacy.
Why This Matters
This rebrand isn’t just about me—it’s about us. It’s about creating a space where we can learn, grow, and thrive together. Whether you’re here for tips on self-care, insights into climbing the corporate ladder, travel inspiration, entrepreneurial advice, or conversations about social change, I want you to feel seen and supported.
I invite you to follow along, share your thoughts, and join this community as we navigate these journeys together. Here’s to embracing growth, pursuing passions, and making meaningful change—one step at a time.
