Heather gave some great tips about what to eat and what not to eat and talks about different things you can use to work out with such as toilet paper.

As Black/African Americans, and Black people across the diaspora, we have to stop using skin tone as a way to put down each other. Dark skin is beautiful and shouldn't be used to belittle our men, women, boys and girls. No matter your skin tone, you are still beautiful and the only reassurance that you need is in the mirror. 

I had the pleasure of interviewing Tempestt Williams, the author of The Maddy Series. We talk about the books she's written, the process of writing a book and why self-publishing works best for her.
