It's time for the B-A-Q-A-A, the B-A-Q-A, what you say, the B-A-Q-A, with NANDE, the B-A-Q-A-A,

hello B-A fam, this week you got me to sing because I have about 75% of my brain capacity

this week, which is doing really damn well when you consider my life right now as a bit

chaotic, but I love it. I just wanted to do a quick update. As you guys know, I had a new baby,

this was the year of the three B's for me, it was baby, book deal, Beyonce. I know you thought

I was going to say brand ambition, but brand ambition is always there, okay? And to have accomplished

those three things, I was just taking some time, the past couple of days to like soak that in and

getting really in my feelings, now my baby, my first baby is heading off to Pre-K, and my number two,

Little Remi is doing so well, my mom has been here just being a hero and a goddess and taking care of him,

so I can get back into a groove, and now that I have the book deal, now I have to do the book writing,

right? So at this point, I don't have set deadlines on when things are due, but I gave,

because my editor is like, you just had a baby, take your time, but I gave, I know myself, and I

need to start putting together like a game plan to get this book done. And my, I hope I will have

the majority of written by the time we yell happy new year for 2024, okay? So that's a tall order,

but I wrote chapter one last week. I'm almost, I'm like 99% done with it, and

nothing has built my confidence more than having at least written a chapter. And I don't know if my

editor's going to think it's good. I don't know if it's, it's probably going to change a million

different ways before the book is actually published, but my whole goal was to sit down and write

words and don't let fear imposter syndrome, any of those doubts that we all have stop me. I just

needed to like barrel through them, or as my son says, steam roll through them, mama. So I

steam rolled through them. I got chapter one done over 7,000 words, and it is all about not waiting

for your FU moment to quit. So not waiting until you get so broke, broke down, burnt out, fed up,
