Atlanta’s Growing Police Brutality Problems Now Include Me!

Random Chats
This post is a personal reflection. It's off-topic from what you're accustomed to seeing here, but I felt it important enough to share. I have a platform, and I need to use it. Keep reading and you'll understand. I've been out of sorts for a little while now. Here's why: One morning my hubby fell off his moped in trying to avoid hitting a car in front of him that changed lanes while driving down our small street. (more…)

Inspiration Is Always Around, If You Don’t Look For It

Random Chats
It’s been a month since I posted my word of the year DO. What a month it’s been! I’ve been making a lot of behind-the-scenes changes with my business, and I’ve been so busy that I’ve been neglecting blogging. That stinks! I’ve been busy working as a hybrid entrepreneur, working on strategic plans and building an empire, and wouldn't you know, writer’s block crept in. Who opened the door for that lunatic? I couldn’t seem to finish a decent blog post. I have all kinds of random drafts, but I just couldn’t seem to put the puzzle together. Inspiration took a vacation and left my brain a dinged up light bulb. No spark, just blah. That is… until today. Inspiration has been smacking me in the head for the past…

2012 Is The Year of DO

Random Chats
I’ve been reading posts over the last few weeks about people selecting their word or words of the year. Are you familiar with this process? You select words to use as a baseline, guiding your actions as you work to meet your personal, professional and/or spiritual goals for the year. I’m not new to the “define your word” process. I’ve been a fan of the practice for some time now. However, my life, goals and aspirations are so complex (as is your life I’m sure) that I’ve never been able to clearly define one, two or three words to adequately describe my plan for the year… until now. You see, it hit me one day. It was a normal day, and as usual random thoughts were bouncing around in my…

Business Can Bloom with the Season

Random Chats
As the weather changes and we gear up for the hot summer ahead, I am reminded that nature is a great compass. How many of you adjust your business activities with the seasons? All the beauty of nature is in full bloom, is your business blooming as well? Naturally we spend more time outdoors socializing in the summer. Thus we may stumble upon any number of impromptu business opportunities while going about our daily routines. The question is, are you prepared to do business at any time? Does your elevator pitch need tweaking? How do you get people to notice you and your brand? Do you host summer events, sponsor any sports-related activities, or perhaps take advantage of all the conferences and socials happening during this time of year? Like many folks from the Northeast, I can't…

Taking My Own Advice

Random Chats
Uh-oh, the month is half-way over. For those of you who understood (and probably joined to some extent) my Happy New Year on April 1st, how has the month been treating you so far? This month I've been focusing on redefining my business actions and vision. More importantly, I'm being completely honest with what I want to do and where I envision myself in the next few years. You know what I've figured out? That I don't EXACTLY know where I want to be, and it's ok! I envision having a virtual marketing consulting business, but how do I get there, being completely virtual? Do I have a full roadmap to get there? Nope, but I'm working on it. Luckily, I interact with some business visionaries that are already successfully pulling this off. They…

I’m ALL IN, Are You?

I’m ALL IN, Are You?

Random Chats
Last week I participated in a fun Facebook group chat with the publisher of the new e-magazine Going Pro.  So we're chatting and our moderator/publisher Stephanie poses the question: What is possible when you really go ALL IN? Well, this got me to thinking, especially since this is a phrase I use quite often. The problem is, I don't know the answer...YET.   Have you ever truly gone ALL IN and put forth 99.99% effort to building the business of your dreams, even if only for a short period of time? How much "productive" time do you actually spend daily? I'm not talking about the half-a$$ busy work you do, I'm talking real strategy and execution of your ideas. Be honest: write that number down, and then throw it away! Two weeks ago…

Hello world, thy name is Miss Kemya!

Random Chats
Even I can't believe I started this blog! You see, I've been threatening (only to myself) the publishing of this blog for several  months now. As many of my Twitter followers are aware, I have given myself permission for a do-over for 2011, since the 1st quarter started spinning out of control, albeit it in a good way. So, I decided April 1, 2011 is effectively my Happy New Year! With that said, welcome to Miss Kemya's Blog. I am absolutely certain the content of this blog will dynamically change as time moves on, but I am starting it with the intention of discussing marketing (in all its forms) and fashion (globally speaking). One thing is guaranteed, you will learn a little, laugh a little, and enjoy your time spent here. I…
