Oh Lord!!!

I know it has been forever since I have posted. For a woman with a history at TechTV, you would think I could maintain a blog. But since the link went sour, I have been up to a lot... on both a personal and professional tip. Professionally, I stepped away from actively pursuing TV for a bit to regroup, and focus on an idea, or what my partner and I like to think of as a "cause", called FEMPIRE www.fempire.com.

So what is FEMPIRE? It is a state of mind, a state of being. It is the type of woman that unapologetically goes for her dreams, contributes to the world, and looks fantastic while doing it.

Yes, FEMPIRE it is short for “female empire.” Don’t get your panties in a ruffle… we are not man hating, ball busting women looking to take over the world. Here is what we mean by female empire… A definition for empire is, “an extensive enterprise under a unified authority.” The “authority” in this case is the collective unit of fempresses. At our very core, we are a collective, nothing without the support, inspiration, and passion of each other. We are benevolent rulers spreading the word that you can be a multifaceted woman and exist in totality without apology or explanation. This means not having to question that you are a great mother despite your sexual freakiness, a delicate flower despite your title of CEO, an extremely spiritual person despite your obsession with shoes.

We believe that if people could follow the mantra “own thyself” the world would be less confusing. We spend so much time running from our hurts, fears, and unknowns that we forget who we are. It is hard to live in a purposeful way when you don’t even know who you are. FEMPIRE is dedicated to people’s soul. We are not just making a statement that “women rock”… we are asking for people to take the next step from gender affirmation and turn it into actualization.

We are not reinventing the wheel; we are just putting a new face on this ideal.

We are manifesting this voice first as an online magazine, then moving into apparel, and then into TV.

It has all been really exciting and painstaking at the same time.

I will be much more diligent about the posts... probably will create a separate blog for FEMPIRE, but wanted to introduce you all to the concept personally.

Next post will be about what has been going on personally... as exciting and painstaking as the professional.

Be well all of you!!!!
