Joy is often seen as fleeting or unimportant, but science tells us otherwise. Joy lowers our stress, builds resilience, and strengthens our connections with others. More than that, joy is a form of resistance. And we need it now more than ever. This Black History month Indigo Movement will celebrate Black joy!

It's funny how everyone wants you to be more or less than what you see for yourself. It's a fine line between having these comments be taken as encouragement or projections. 2024 reinforced the lesson to run my race at my pace, regardless of the noise. And yes, the noise can be well-intentioned.

What an interesting day. Several things are happening at once. On one hand, it's a day of remembrance, honor, and a reminder to be of service; shoutout to Martin Luther King Jr., Coretta Scott King (the vizier), and the team. On the other hand, there's the transfer of power and everything and everybody that comes with that. With that being said, what both individuals have in common is their team. 2024 taught me that my team is rare and dope!

2024 was an expensive year for the entire world! I saw fellow business owners close their doors and put their businesses on pause, and some had to cut staff to the point that the owners were working the floor again. Being an entrepreneur and a guardian of children and elders is not for the weak of hearts.

As the Founder and Owner of Indigo Movement, I want to take the month of January to share the lessons I’ve learned and grew from in 2024. 2024 has been a journey of understanding the power, importance, and symbolism of moving with the seasons.

Even though a New Year is amongst us during the season of winter. I hope you go into 2025 as if you’re on a first date.
