⭐️ Introducing Curls and Courage ⭐️

What’s up my people! I am beyond excited to announce the launch of my brand new podcast: “Curls and Courage”.

"Curls and Courage" isn't just another podcast. It's a journey into authenticity and raw conversation, breaking free from the 'highlight reel' of social media platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok.

I created this podcast to help you achieve your highest physical and mental potential! We'll delve into vital topics such as fitness, nutrition, mental health, faith, and personal development, and so much more!

As a coach, athlete, and a small town Alabama girl who took the leap to the crazy city of Miami, I'll be sharing my personal struggles, triumphs, and inspirational health journey.

The first episode drops today! Connect with me all major podcast platforms: Spotify, Apple Podcasts, bCast, etc. In this first episode, I open up about my mental health journey and what made me get into fitness and nutrition.

Let's explore, grow, and break barriers together!! Remember to tag & to share your stories and be part of an empowering journey to becoming the best version of you!

Thank you guys so much for supporting and listening! 💜

So happy with the package I brought to NPC North American Championships this year! 🙌

I ended up taking home 6th place in a highly competitive class full of beautiful, hard working bikini competitors.

To be honest, this wasn’t the placing I was hoping for. I hold myself to a very high standard and sacrifice a lot to compete and present my best in every bodybuilding competition. This sport means so much to me and is a HUGE part of my life.

However, after reflecting back on this event over the past few days, I’ve excepted that it’s just not my time yet.
I feel confident in knowing that my time is coming though and I’m right where I need to be.

Moving forward, I plan on keeping my faith strong and taking some time to make the improvements I need to make in order to show up 2024 and be undeniable on stage.

This season has been very difficult for me to say the least, but I know it’s time to focus on many other areas of my life outside of bodybuilding that I have been putting aside and have to face and overcome now that my 2023 competition season is finished.

Bodybuilding continues to teach me mental fortitude, perseverance, confidence, and strength and for that I am grateful. 🙏

Thank you so much to everyone who continues to support me on my journey. I keep my circle small, but have so much love, compassion, and respect for my real ones. 💙

Stage shots from

Vibes leading into North Americans …

After finals, I immediately jumped off stage to talk with and to get feedback and look for ways I can be better over the next two weeks. Listed below is what they said during our conversation! 👇

🔑Overall look was good, (makeup, hair, tan, and stage presence).

🔑Conditioning was on point. Need to focus on coming in extremely full for North Americans (especially in glutes and shoulders).

🔑Slowness/ Tempo of my routine is poised but probably needs to be sped up a tad in order to make it through my full presentation at Nationals since my time on stage is limited with so many bikini competitors.

🔑Practice my posing routine on carpeted floor to mimic the stage at North Americans. This is perfect for me! I generally practice on carpet already because of the flooring in my apartment hallway.

Huge thank you to Becky and Nickie for the clear feedback and willingness to help!! 🙏

The hardest part about competing/ prepping for me personally isn’t the diet, cardio, training, stress, low energy, mood, lack of sleep, … etc. It’s keeping my mental health strong and keeping a mindset of fortitude. I often feel like I’m not good enough or will never get to the high level I’m aiming for.

Throughout my years of competing, I’ve realized that self doubt isn’t going to get my anywhere. The best thing you can do is be your own biggest cheerleader and develop stronger mentality and headspace.

In the end, I know that I will do everything in my power to bring my best to NPC North American Championships and will CHOOSE to stay positive and optimistic throughout these next few weeks. It’s all in God’s timing and I feel confident in knowing that.

Let’s keep the good vibes rolling baby:))

Post lower body session the other day :)

Goals over the next 2-4 weeks:

🩵Continue to drop body fat and tighten things up while maintaining muscle fullness

🩵Execute cardio, training, diet & supplementation

🩵Prioritize enough rest and recovery to keep a healthy look and manage stress levels

🩵Try to keep my mental sanity lol
(Mental fortitude is everything in bodybuilding)

Can’t wait to see the final look come together with fire hair and makeup, tan, and further transformation in bringing my best physique to the stage this year!
