My Leap of Faith: An Update

Hi lovelies. Today I am delighted to share some news with you. I have recently joined the Black and Married With Kids family as an editor. I am honored that Ronnie and Lamar saw something in me and are giving me this chance to work for them. I am also humbled as this was a position sought after by many talented writers and editors. I believe in favor and am so excited for the growing that will come out of this opportunity.

I know as some of you read this you are baffled at how this happened. As I share more on my leap of faith in the coming weeks (and no, I didn’t get hired prior to my resignation) I will share what prompted me to apply for a position that I initially struggled to apply for after battling with thoughts of not being “good enough.”
For now I wanted to share where my leap has taken me and thank you for your support and prayers. I’d love for you to visit me there and if you ever happen to read my words and notice something I didn’t catch instead of laughing or shaking your head send me an email! Help me be the best I can be and remember that everyone starts somewhere — the key is to get started!

Happy leaping! xo.

    I read a few of your posts and I feel like I know you. :-) Congrats on the big leap of faith and on the editor position at BMWK. I am so glad we are a part of that team together. I recently had a daughter as well. She was born on October 23rd. I am hoping that, like you, I can take that leap and leave the full-time job by the end of this year. Wish me luck. And, keep doing your thing. I love your blog!

      Thank you so much Martine. Your kindness means a lot. It has been so wonderful working with you all and getting to read such wonderful posts. Everyone is so nice and supportive. It is so heartwarming to see and very special to get to be a part of that. Congratulations on your little one! I know you are enjoying her. I love how my little one is interacting with me these days but I miss my wrinkly newborn sometimes too :) I will be praying for you and sending good thoughts your way. I know 2013 has great things in store for you!

    Hello! Do you know if they make any plugins to safeguard against hackers?

    I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked hard on.

    Any suggestions?

    internet the simplest factor to take into account of.

    folks think about issues that they just do not recognise about.

    You managed to hit the nail upon the top and outlined out the whole thing
    with no need side-effects , other folks could take a signal.
    Will probably be again to get more. Thanks
