I'm getting back into reading lately + am currently reading More Myself by Alicia Keys. Her energy is amazing; I feel like she is one of us -- a kindred.
Earlier in the quarantine I read More than Enough by Elaine Welteroth. OMGoddess. If you don't know who she is, remember when Teen Vogue transformed into socially conscious and featuring wayyyy more melanated/ diverse teens?? Well, that was Elaine Welteroth. She was Editor in Chief at that time.
And she is currently in a new position as a talk show host on CBS's The Talk, dropping all her gems.
Elaine is biracial, and even though I am 100% white/ European, I can identify with her experience being part of predominantly Black and predominantly white communities.
And her husband Jonathan performs at Afropunk, and has been doing these "Piano and Prayer" IG lives that I LOOOVE tuning into!
They got married during the quarantine, and I followed the whole thing on social media.
I feel like they are my friends! :)
Basically, they are #couplegoals. They seem like the ultimate power couple, balanced and real. Here to change the world, and heal. YESSSS.
Do you have a power couple you love? Or person?
What about a great book you're reading?
Feel free to comment below.
It takes effort to get off social media, and actually read a real book. But I'm getting back in my rhythm.
By the way, speaking of Prayer, I did an amazing facebook/ IG live, where I shared my journey of reform Jewish to New Thought Prayer Warrior and Interfaith Ordained Minister.
I also dropped a powerful Prayer for you!
Sending Lots of Love!
