happy thanksgiving
this thanksgiving, i'm reminding myself to pay attention to what's actually here. the people who shows up, the moments that feel good, the small wins that carried me through, the laughter that softens the long days & the courage it took to keep it movin'. it's easy to get stuck on what's missing, but there's so much worth holding close. so today, on thanksgiving, i'm choosing gratitude for health we have, the memories we're makin' & the blessings i didn't always noticed.
berry blast smoothie
1 cup coconut water 1 scoop vanilla vegan protein powder 1/2 cup assorted berries (blackberries, blueberries, cranberries, raspberries & strawberries) fresh or frozen handful spinach
photoshoot prep
this is goin' to be a really fun project! as you can imagine, the preparations for it will be insanely physical. the good thing about gettin' ready for the photoshoot is that i'm able to have a much different training schedule than i do when i'm workin'. in order to look my very best in front of the camera, i have to put myself through an intense, exhausting routine. i did a lot of hot yoga, sometimes twice a day or i would do fasted cardio in the morning & hot yoga in the evening. the other ...

back in the day, i used to watch america's next top model. mind you this is way before reality tv took over our television sets.
i loved the show of course as a viewer, i didn't know exactly what was goin' on behind the scenes when this show was filmed.
thank you netflix for the docuseries, 'reality check: inside america's next top model,' for giving the viewers who grew up watchin' the show a chance to really know what really happened during filming from those who were in the show.
i must say that mr. jay manuel was the main reason why i tuned in to america's next top model & i might say that man aged like fine wine!
now explain to me how tyra banks the creator of america's next top model was unaware of the toxic environment that these girls were put in?!?!?!?!?
i also didn't like the fact that she blamed others such the higher ups at the network as well as those workin' in production as to why some of the issues the girls were dealing w/yet no 1 helped them as to why she was unaware of what was goin' on?!?!?!?
last but not least, how did she not grant mr. jay manuel his release when he told her that he felt like it was time for him to move on to other things yet she ignored him only to fire him 10 years later along w/miss jay alexander & niger barker?!?!?!?!?
that woman took no accountability or responsibility as to why her show that she created became a toxic environment to those that worked on the show as well as the contestants on the show!
