If I could wish for anything this birthday, it would be time…

… more of it

…all of it

…any of it

But for now

I’ll settle for the moments I have been given

Like treating myself to a pre birthday adventure

From a solo trip to Baltimore

To the familiar streets of NYC

To see people I know and love well

While making new friends along the way

And while I may be tired from filling the time I have with as much as possible…

I’m also feeling restored

Filled with love and hope inspite of another challenging year

But I can count on myself, my family, my friends and GOD to make life beautiful

Filled with fun surprises

And moments of reflection and growth

And that gift is pretty good too.

2016 feels like someone else’s lifetime ago. Finally a trend that offers some self reflection. Thinking about who, where and what I was 10 years back, how much I accomplished that year, and how every choice you make sets another brick on the path to where you are now. I got all the feels 😭

From function to fashion, handbags are telling the story of the times. While millennials love practical totes, Gen Z favors smaller statement bags—and these trends reveal how style reflects generational values.

We asked our Gen Z and millennial editors to go head-to-head over their favorite bags, and here’s what they had to say.

MY U.S. TOUR: I could never be broke, just look at my wealth! 🥰

My cup stayed full all summer - family, friends, and good vibes from state to state.
Everywhere I go, I find community…or it finds me. And now, I’m building it in Thailand too. 🙌🏽

I’ve built roots in the U.S., planted seeds in Thailand, and now I get to invite others to grow with me. 🌱
𝑮𝒍𝒐𝒘 𝑭𝒐𝒓𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒅 is more than a retreat - it’s a chance to experience the magic of community, healing, and travel in one.

Thailand may be home for now, but y’all are the reason I glow wherever I go.

🔗 Link in bio if you’re ready to make memories that money could never buy. Come join us at 𝑮𝒍𝒐𝒘 𝑭𝒐𝒓𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒅.

✨If you’re not ready to travel, pull up to my FREE broadcast channel, The Inner Glow, for community online.

I could only tag 20 ppl, but you were there too: @atlgardenqueen @jaidajai._ @kalinowest @taj_tennaz @superblackmuslim

When I left home at age 16 this is the prayer my grandma made for me: “May you always find a community that feels like home no matter where you go” 🙏🏿. New York you did that ❤️ Thank you for an unforgettable night 🗽!
