I feel like I’m back in Baltimore, living in condemned buildings. This feels SO familiar. I have not received a date for when Happy and I can move back into our home.

Home.

Wow. Such a simple word that means so much. I feel so displaced. Even though Happy and I are, literally, right across the roundabout in a lovely furnished executive suite. I have started to “move in” to our temporary housing but received a message to pick up a package.

I think going forward, I will not go back home until the repairs are complete. Each time I look at the total destruction of home, I feel like it’s a reflection of my annihilated life.

No regret. Just grief and impact.

I’m clear the (water) damage REQUIRED a complete demolition of all I considered home. That doesn’t mean reckoning with reality is easy. It is not. But it’s necessary to live healthy. Whole. Free.

My home, like my life, is transitioning through the necessary stages of destruction so destiny can have its way with me in a way that is, well, fulfilling and sustainable.

I, like the walls, floors, and pipes being replaced and rebuilt, have had all the damage cut out of me. In its place are new, stronger, more protected infrastructures being installed and fortified with the highest quality of protection so this NEVER happens again.

Thank you God for taking such loving care of me during this change; this transition. I’m clear my destiny is calling in the midst of all this demise.

And I am grateful.

I love you.

Thanks for witnessing.

Dr. Venus

Ps: Just for joy, here is a video of Happy playing with me in the Santa Monica beach. Life is beautiful.🐶🥰🐶

What a difference a year makes, I’m grateful.

We’re the ones they never saw coming …
Grateful – We’re the ones they never saw coming… 


Thanksgiving is in our laps and Christmas is around the corner.
I’m present to what I am truly grateful for that I didn’t have this time last year.

This time last year my body was broken, my marriage had failed and my business had burned to the ground. I had lost my identity and didn’t have a clue about God’s will for my life.

The only directive I could hear from Spirit was this: write.

So I started to write down all the things I dared not say.
I couldn’t say them—but I could write them.
And the more I wrote, the more I healed, and my destiny started to arise.

Now, a year later, I’m living my authentic AND abundant life!

I’m happily single.

My body is bangin’ from regular workouts.

My business model makes room for me to fulfill MY dream: I’M A PERFORMANCE ARTIST AGAIN!!

I have an almost entirely new team, AMAZING private clients of different races that I love like sisters, and I’m about to change the game with my upcoming book tour. (details coming soon) 

God is so faithful.

So in honor of Thanksgiving, I wish you and yours an extraordinary holiday overflowing with hope for tomorrow, grace with today, and wisdom from the past.

I am not big on celebrating holidays (too many traumas/hurts/losses affiliated with them) but I am I’m in love with the Lord. I am SO grateful to God for walking with me, in the fiery furnace called life. Every. Single. Step. Of the way.   

Thank you, God, for giving me one more chance to have my life do your work in the world.
Thank you, Lord, for Happy.
When I was confronted with the truth that I would never have a baby, you gave me Happy to nurture and love. I never knew I could love ANYONE to the depth I love Happy.

Thank you, Lord, for making me brave.

I’m thankful for my team, for empowering my leadership in the world with excellence.

And I give thanks for my “Truth-Tellers,” my sisters and brothers on social media. 

Thanks for walking with me each step of the way.

So, Truth-Tellers, keep an eye on your inbox so I can take you on the journey while I change the game.
What I’m about to drop is AS DOPE as Beyonce dropping her first visual album, B-Day, that broke the internet.

We’re the ones they never saw coming.

They counted us out.

Not having what it takes to win after titanic losses. But they were wrong then.

And they are wrong now.

Walk with me.

Don’t miss one piece of the MIND-BLOWING “raw” truth I’m about to unleash on this world.

I’m thankful for you.

Happy Thanksgiving,

Dr. Venus and Happy!

P.S. Happy got his hair cut for the holidays and is protesting!!
