Black Women’s Expo weekend is HERE, and trust me… you don’t want to miss it! ✨🖤

This isn’t just an expo—it’s a celebration of Black excellence, entrepreneurship, empowerment, beauty, wellness, fashion, and community all under one roof at McCormick Place.

Today’s lineup featured the incredible Joy Reid, and the excitement continues this weekend with Keke Palmer and the ladies of the Pour Minds Podcast taking the stage! 🙌🏾🎤

One of my favorite parts? Shopping with the amazing Black-owned small businesses! From fashion and beauty to food, home goods, and unique finds, there’s something for everyone while supporting independent entrepreneurs. 🛍️✨

🎟️ Tickets are still available for Saturday & Sunday online or grab them at your local Walgreens for half off! @bwenext

Who’s going this weekend? Let me know if I’ll see you there! 💕✨

Marché Privé: Derby Day Edition Recap Pt. 2 ✨

One of the most beautiful parts of the day was watching people fully step into the experience. The Derby-inspired looks, statement hats, spontaneous photoshoots, laughter between strangers, and genuine connections happening throughout the space reminded us exactly why we created Marché Privé.

Every corner of the gallery carried its own energy — from discovering new brands and one-of-a-kind pieces to dancing between shopping breaks and celebrating style as self-expression.

Seeing so many people intentionally support local creatives while showing up in their best looks made the entire day feel elevated, vibrant, and unforgettable.

Until next time… 😉

Awareness isn’t just a month… it’s a daily practice. 💛
And this weekend showed us why.

During Autism Awareness Month, 28 children and over 10 families experienced a sensory-friendly day at the Shedd Aquarium 🌊

Watching our children explore, engage, and move through a space designed with them in mind was everything.

This is what happens when we prioritize:
✨ Confidence
✨ Community
✨ Access

Because awareness alone isn’t enough —
we need resources, support, and spaces that allow our children to show up fully.

A special thank you to the Shedd Aquarium for sponsoring this experience for Spectrum Family Talks families. 💛

This is just the beginning. “I don’t own the rights to this song”. #neurodiversefamilies #spectrumfamilytalks #autismfamily #frienship #sensoryfriendly
