- hey boos 🫶🏾,
here's to the start of a new month, getting back into a healthy routine amidst the transitions happening in life. this week in particular has been super up and down, but i'm happy i was able to find a silver lining and still make way for doing things that make me feel good.
my great grandmother's passing has me in such a reflective mood because she was the eldest in my family and the only one i could really connect with to learn more about my family history and lineage. if you're reading this and you still have the chance to connect with your great or great-great grandparents, i highly encourage you to do so.
on the brighter side, i'm really excited about my move to Atlanta. i can't believe it's happening. it feels really good to finally put my fear aside and no longer hold myself back for whatever reason. excited to bring you all along the journey!
i hope your week is going amazing! take care all ways, always. enjoy! xo ❣️

Me watching this with my stanley lol
LOL!! adult sippy-cup gang unite!!! 🫶🏾
Im 34 year old single mom with 2 daughters, 9 and 3. I have alot of regrets. One is not living my best life LIVING ALONE prior to kids and relationships. Its harder after and most never make it back to themselves. I watch your channel to live vicariously through you! You’re doing well Sis! I promise!❤
WOW. this touched me so much. it feels so amazing to hear form women that are older than me and can affirm that I'm not doing too bad. sometimes i get a little lost in the sauce, but these little reminders put it all in perspective-THANK YOU!! i am sending you soooo much love and light on your journey. i pray that you find joy and peace in what life is currently offering you. i pray that you find subtle ways in your days to come home to yourself. you deserve it. 💗
@@AmaniRakeia you’re doing amazing Sis… I promise. Live! Enjoy! Explore! The world is your oyster, especially with your mom as a bomb ass support system. ❤️
This the comment! I'm 43..girl live your liiiiiife! 🙌🏼✨️
I’m 35 and I can agree with Nikki 100%. I was the oldest and set to be the one to look up to by all the siblings and grandkids. I did things by the book and let’s just say, I am separated, will be divorced soon, a single mom to a 7 year old and honestly I’m at peace. I wish I took my time instead of living my life to think being married with kids by a certain age is the end all be all and it’s not the move. At least not for me. Lol I’m starting over and I’m okay with that. 😊
You couldn’t have said it better! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I’m a 32. I’ll be 33 next Thursday I’m a single woman no kids and still feel like I’m just getting ready to start on a new chapter but you really remind me of when I first moved out into my first apartment. Love this channel. Love you. Praying for you!
awww your mom is so adorable i love that for you
aawwww, thank you so, so much❤
Your mothers support had me grinning 😀!! I enjoyed her excitement for you 💕
awwww, lol just like me in the video haha!
i recently stumbled across your videos and i am so in love with your channel! i absolutely LOVE your energy! you have such a beautiful and vibrant soul. something about your videos is just so inspiring and so comforting.
sending you tons of love and my dearest condolences 💖
Yes candle rituals for the ancestors!! You can also set up a space (altar) for them in your space filled with their favorite things, snacks they likes, articles of clothing, pics of them..
also condolences to great granny!
You are on the right track baby girl. Enjoy life to the max and when God blesses you with your Boaz ( because He will ) you will appreciate your single life spent and enjoy the couple journey as well.
Condolences on the loss of your Great Grandmother! Keeping you & your family in prayer.

Deepest sympathy for your loss. Praying for you and your family.

I’m so glad I found your page. I’m currently in the process of leaving an almost eight year long relationship and soon I’ll be living alone for the first time in my life which is terrifying but seeing things like this makes me feel comfortable in knowing that things do get better and being alone and happy is possible. Keep doing amazing things gorgeous girl we’re all rooting for you 🖤

Girl plllllleeeeaaaasssseeee give your workout tips
Which gym did u go to in LA? I’m thinking about letting go of 24 hour fit.
girrrrl i let go of 24 hour fitness in a heart beat. the vibes there just weren't great. I go to Gold's Gym!
@@AmaniRakeia right! Plus it’s filthy, both Slauson and 120th. How much is Golds?
And your mom is DOPE!!!
she's amazing!!! thank you so much 💗
are they letting you break your lease to pay out the rest of the months or are you subletting?
my landlord has been super sweet throughout this process as she understands the toll of living so far way from home has been on my mental health. so i will not have to pay out the rest of my lease. truly a blessing 💗
When are you coming BACK!!??
Hi hi where are you missing you alot
Baby girl when u coming back?!
I thought u left LA already.
SOOOOOONNNN! can't wait! 🥰 trying to keep y'all updated in real-time as much as i can lol.
@@AmaniRakeia awwwww baby girl. ❤️❤️❤️
Baby girl. I don’t know about that matcha. U INFLUENCED me to get some and it’s aight. Lol
How are you burning so many calories? Are you doing cardio outside of the stair master and weightlifting?
She lifted weights in the video and ran on the treadmill 😊
i do a mix of weightlifting and some cardio in addition to a dynamic warm-up 🥰
