Life|Beyond Categories
🌻 Beyond Categories | A Simply Flava Reflection I’ve lived long enough to see how the boxes we’re placed in—and the ones we place ourselves in—can both protect and divide us. I’m Japanese and German, yet I was raised within Black culture and community: the music, the rhythm, the language, the love for style and expression. …

Life|Saturday Stillness by the Lake
☕ Saturday Stillness by the Lake It’s Saturday morning, and I just dropped Kiki off at her class. The air feels cool and calm — that kind of quiet only Fall seems to know. I’ve got my Pecan Crunch Oatmilk Latte in hand and a book I’ve been meaning to read — “Perfect Is Boring (And…

Life|H&W|Let It Go — You Deserve Peace
Let It Go — You Deserve Peace By Lady Flava | Simply Flava Reflections One thing I’ve learned since returning from Vegas is how much of a disservice it is to stay in misery. Truly, misery loves company. I was miserable in Vegas — and I called home often, repeating the same words again and…

Life|H&W|Why School Meals Matter
🌻 Why School Meals Matter We know the research. Children who are nourished perform better, focus longer, and behave more positively. Hunger doesn’t just empty the stomach — it clouds the mind and dims a child’s spark. For some students, school breakfast and lunch are the only consistent meals they’ll have that day. That shouldn’t come…

Life|Raising the Standard Quietly
🌻 Seasoned SoulZ Reflection Raising the Standard Quietly Sometimes leadership isn’t about titles, meetings, or authority. It’s about quietly seeing what needs to be done and stepping into it — without drama, without complaint. Recently, I noticed that several days of inter-office mail had not been checked. Instead of letting it pile up, I posted…
