## Caption

We kicked off our Summer of Sí in the Dominican Republic, and let’s just say...it didn’t go as planned. I lost 8 days of footage, almost cried over my SD card, and still somehow managed to soak in the beauty of this island with my daughter Bella by my side.

What is Summer of Sí?
It’s our family’s journey of reconnecting with our Dominican roots. I’ve been coming here for years, but this summer I’m bringing Bella along for the ride. From city life to campo weekends, this is our way of staying connected to language, culture, and joy.

#DominicanRepublicVlog #RaisingBilingualKids #AfroLatinaMom #SummerOfSí #FamilyTravelSeries

Over the past year, I’ve built a 7-figure business as a full-time content creator — and it all started with a pivot. I’ve written an eBook called Primed to Pivot to help others navigate the in-between seasons and build a life that actually feels like theirs. I’ll be sharing more soon, but for now… welcome to this new chapter. I’m glad you’re here.After more than a decade in news, I made the decision to step away from the anchor desk not because I had it all figured out, but because I was ready to bet on myself. This is my first vlog, a window into the life I’m building now: recording my podcast, spending time with my husband Robert and our daughter Bella, dancing, laughing, and doing work that truly fulfills me.

It’s not perfect, but it’s mine and I’m sharing it with you 💕
