My mother had three kids, two boys and me the girl. Being the only girl had its perks; I got everything I wanted and the world literally revolved around me. You see when I was younger that was the best life. However, coming into adulthood, I had a flippin' hard time trying to live in a world that did not revolve around me. I was one of many women in the world, and I struggled in my early to mid twenties to find my place. I struggled because we all looked the same, dressed pretty much the same and looked up to the same type of people. It was then I realized it is so easy to be fake but so hard to be yourself. Well, I should say being accepted for being yourself because it is not the "norm." I created tribes and I had lasting impressions on many, but not many stood around. I knew I had a word, a word to share with people who were longing, for, that same thing I was. I was longing for a tribe, a sister that would not mind going through the pains of life with me, celebrating moments with me, encouraging and loving me...most importantly sticking around. I birthed BoostHer.
