We had a time tonight!!!
Y'all when I tell y'all I had a blast, I mean it was the absolute best time I have had in a while outside of a concert or music event. My bestie, DeBlair Tate put her all into her "Ladies Night Out" event and she DID NOT MISS! If you are ready to make some real changes in your life through structured coaching then you should reach out to my girl. This event was the result of a tremendous amount of thought and planning. I am so proud of what she accomplished tonight! I am exha

So...apparently I just needed a nap!
Sleep deprivation will have you looking real crazy and acting real foolish! Yesterday, I was irritated because I have been running off adrenaline all week and the walls came tumbling down hard and fast. From working (like really working) the whole entire at work. Add in limited bathroom breaks and skipping lunch every day trying to complete all of the tasks, completing a therapy session, running errands, dropping off kids, picking up kids, and boom...down goes Frazier!

What now?
Every day brings about its own challenges. Today, I was fighting a combo of decision fatigue with a side of intrusive thoughts wondering if simple things would be taken care of…whole time God and my mama were working in tandem to make sure their daughter was okay. Everyday I smile even when most days I really want to cry…not because I’m sad but because I’m overwhelmed with having to make decisions ALL the time. Decision fatigue is real and it can be crippling! But instead of

We Did It Joe... (Joy Over Everything!)
Instead of being sad that it’s over be grateful that you experienced it. That’s my outlook these days. I used to find myself getting upset over the smallest nuances throughout the days but now I refocus that energy into productivity and/or rest. No need in worrying yourself with things you can’t change or control. What I can control is what I spend my energy doing. Fast forward to yesterday when made this whole “get ready with me” video ( see here ) yesterday and it ended up

Monday almost took me through there…But I made it tho!
Y’all…when I tell you I woke up focused and ready for the world… Just know that I am lying through my teeth because baby I barely made it. I was dragging and not at all ready to return to the hustle and bustle of work. That bed had me in a crazy chokehold and I did not want to let go. When I did finally pull myself out of the bed, I was so unfocused I started a GRWM TikTok (I gotta get my baby to help me edit it…lol!), did a full face beat, packed my lunch, made coffee, folde

Happy First Sunday of 2026!
I don't know If I shared that I joined a church back in 2024. I probably started writing about it and forgot or felt like it wasn't worth sharing but me joining a church is really a big deal for a couple of reasons. 1) I have only been a member of three churches in my life: My home church, Paige Grove Missionary Baptist Church in Utica, MS. The church that I helped to plant with my forever brother and friend the late, great "Big John" Perkins, Common Ground Covenant Church in

I, MichelleRena, Unsubscribe...
So initially I was prepping to write a post about unsubscribing from all of the many unneeded shopping apps and text reminders that I receive daily encouraging poor financial stewardship. But as I typed the word “unsubscribe” something triggered me and I had to pause for a few moments… (hours) actually. Everybody who says “new year, new me” ain’t wrong. For some of us, the newness of the year is exactly the reset that we need to refocus our goals or even to unsubscribe from s
