"For we know there's no other like our sisterhood ..."

Today marks my 20th year of membership in Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., the first Greek-letter organization for Black women based on sisterhood and service to all mankind.

Eternally grateful for my big sisters, my line sisters, and all the sorors I've met over the years.

Guest lecturing, traveling, writing, reading, networking, working, working, and working ... Whew!

October took my breath away ...

A front-row seat to TEDWomen, bringing my manifestation of doing the first of many @ted Talks closer to reality.

Launching the 2nd installment of "WomenLead Presents," a lunch-and-learn series I created for the best elective (@womenleadgsu) at @georgiastateuniversity #thestateway

Heading to @officialsouthernmiss for homecoming with friends and my @iotakappa_1908 sorors as 74 S.O.S. nears our 20th anniversary of sisterhood and service to all mankind.

Going home to MS and spending time with my favorite people (my family) at a place with special memories (the MS State Fair)! It's been a long time since I had a free biscuit with Blackburn syrup ... #IYKYK

@bucees ... Full stop.

And, of course, this prospectus. Do not ask me about graduation.

Thank you to UGA's Women in Media (@uga_wim) for inviting me to speak on your panel about the for-profit and non-profit world. I love pouring back into the next generation, especially women, as they prepare for the post-college world. From talking about taking risks, fostering community and sisterhood, and how to deal with "Chad" ... it was a great time at @ugagrady #godawgs 🐾

As a bonus, I had family in tow -- a cousin and aunt who is also my mentor -- and I took them to DePalma's, my favorite place to eat in the Classic City!

Heading back to where it all began at @officialsouthernmiss ... 💕💚

Learning about the Divine 9, the legacy of Black women leaders, and the trendsetters who started it all.

“In 1908 ... at Howard U ...” #IYKYK

Sneaking into the bookstore to buy the book of the same name without anyone noticing me ... and running right into the chapter president who would later become my big sister.

Doing the research, attending the programs, and holding my breath during each step of the process until November 16, 2003, at 1:34:24 CST became a reality ... finally being able to get my pearls and wear my pink and green.

All of these memories come back when I get to celebrate milestones with my line sisters, 74 Silhouettes of SophistAKAtion, Fall 2003, @iotakappa_1908 chapter.

November 16 will mark 20 years of sisterhood, so we got the party started early! A week later, I was surrounded by sorors in the @aka_saregion for our Cluster Conference.

Service to all mankind! Get into it! 💕💚
Blazing trails, epitomizing excellence, and soaring high!

Home is good for the soul ... Going to Mississip

Home is good for the soul ...

Going to Mississippi always restores me. I got to see my loved ones, although briefly, with the reminder that core memories last forever.

Such as ...

Getting a pic with just me and my favorite girl, Granny, and talking with her and my auntie about life and pie!

💕💚 Celebrating 20 years with my favorite pretty girls at @officialsouthernmiss homecoming and getting hugs and selfies with so many friends from the days before we had frat/sorors, degrees, or a clue about what we were going to do with our lives!

Spending time with my brother, sister-in-law, and 2 youngest nephews at the fair. Speaking of the fair ... I can’t remember the last time I was there, so it was great to head back with my family.

That’s the thing about Mississippi: It never gets old and it will always be my safe space. I’ll be back soon ...
