be the impact: why cancer screening supports black communities

It was an honor to discuss the importance of cancer screening and share how cancer has personally impacted my family. #sponsored In partnership with @Novartis and @BlavityInc, @taralindaaa and I chatted with experts at Novartis and the @AmericanCancerSociety about how regular cancer screening can help find cancer early, when it may be easier to treat.

life & work with jacky wright

1. Map out a plan and execute: You don’t need all the answers, you just need to take one step at a time, you’ll figure it out as you go. 2. Build genuine relationships and find your tribe: You’ll go farther in your path finding like-minded individuals that share your passion and want to grow individually and collectively. My advice for anyone just starting out is to just start. As cliche as it sounds, the first day you start is one day ahead of someone who was just thinking or talking about it. Everyone’s path is different but as long as you pray and stay dedicated I believe things will work out in your favor.

There was a profound revelation that was revealed to me that provided a new found sense of patience and restored faith. I tweeted in the early stages of the pandemic that I hoped to pick up some good habits during my quarantine and by the looks of it, it actually happened.

the 4th quarter, where legends are made (2019)

It’s the 4th quarter again - it’s time to be great! We only have a few weeks left in 2019 and I want to remind myself and everyone else that we should look to finish the year out strong. 2020 is right around the corner and I know we’re all excited and looking forward to what the New Year will bring. But I would be remiss not to stress the importance of writing things down and being very intentional with what you want in your life. I wrote down some personal and professional goals in 2017 that I accomplished in 2018 so of course I did the same in 2018 for 2019. Goal #1 for 2019 was to sell my mother’s...
