There’s an old saying: “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” 💕✨
And last week proved exactly that!

Last Wednesday, I had the honor of partnering with my Line Sister, Soror, boss friend, and collaborator Dr. Tori Ellis to co-create the Vitamin “C” Confidence & Mindfulness Youth Summit in Yonkers, NY!

Together — alongside two other DOPE Boss Babes — .cole and we poured into over 100 incredible high school girls in grades 9–12 and showed them what it truly means to Walk Into Their Confidence!

And guess what, y’all?
WE’RE JUST GETTING STARTED! 🚀

Want some Vitamin “C” in YOUR city, school, or community? Hit us up! We can’t wait to inspire, empower, and help the next generation walk boldly in who they are!

She didn’t know it yet…
but this little girl would grow up being told she was too much.

Too loud.
Too bold.
Too big.

She’d be asked to shrink.
To quiet her voice.
To take up less space.

But what nobody knew then was this:
God was already building something BIG in her.

This song is my declaration.
My healing.
My reminder that I was never meant to shrink to make others comfortable.

🎶 Too BIG to Shrink
***NEW MUSIC…COMING SOON***

This one is for every little girl—and every grown woman—who never stopped believing, even when the world told her to be less.

💜 If this resonates, drop a 💜 or comment “I’m done shrinking.”

Rev……

I’m sitting in my car and it still feels like this is all a bad dream that I can’t wake up from!

So many memories! So manny moments! So many laughs, tears and even arguments (well I argued-you kept your ground)!

So many moments where I wanted to quit but you always said “You can do it! You got this!!” You taught me how to LEAD by demanding that I learn how to follow!

You stressed education! You MADE me go back to school! You prayed over my relationship that’s now a marriage! You taught me what righteous indignation truly is and was! I’ll never forget the day that you came to the picket line (picture 3) when we were on strike with Verizon! You pulled me to the side, gave me “lunch money” and said “Okay! It’s time to go back to school!” And I did!

You prayed over my womb when they said that we’d never be parents! You married me! You blessed our miracles!

You baptized our daughters!
You told the corniest jokes at the most inappropriate times!

You fed my spirit! And showed me that preaching the gospel doesn’t look one way!

I don’t know my adult life without you! I don’t know this gospel without you! But THIS I KNOW….So much of the better version of me…..I owe to you! I’m a better wife, mother, daughter and leader because of you!
THANK YOU Clint Miller!

Keep watching! Keep guiding like only you can! I promise to keep “my promise”!

Your #1 GOON! IYKYK!

God help!

Brooklyn, it’s time to pull up and show out!

Join me, Donna Perry, author of the empowering children’s book Everybody Has A Body, for a LIVE “Meet the Author” Experience at Ashley Stewart – 1222 Fulton Street on Saturday, May 10th from 12 PM to 3 PM!

We’re celebrating body positivity, self-love, and representation with:
• Signed copies of the book
• Inspiring conversation
• Special giveaways
• AND the powerful presence of community!

This event is in partnership with Empower Her Curves Media & Publishing and Ashley Stewart, and it’s for every child (and adult!) who’s ever needed a reminder that they are beautifully and wonderfully made.

Let’s rewrite the narrative—one body at a time.

Tag a teacher, bring a child, and meet me there!

Ava:
Mom! Can you make me a pair of junk socks?

Me: what are those? (Does my research!)
Also Me: Sure I can! Proceeds to order supplies and the rest is junk sock history!

Love how they came out!
