Two years ago…I heard myself tell someone that I didn’t think my natural hair was beautiful. I hated that for me, and did the work to figure out why. Today…I put that natural hair on air for the first time with extreme pride.

An “Honor Chair” was revealed this afternoon at a Fort Myers ceremony honoring fallen officers. Officer Adam Jobbers-Miller’s name was revealed on a FMPD monument & Blue Line Bears presented his family with teddy bears. Donations were presented, too. May we always remember.
This year…it dawned on me that I’ve never outwardly called myself an “ally”. Around the same time, Chase asked me to join our company’s resource group and I didn’t even think twice about it. I’m already learning so much by just LISTENING more and I’m grateful.
Whew. A combined conference means I’m stuck with her even OFF the anchor desk for five days. And as you can see…I’m thrilled. 😬🤣But we’re excited to REPRESENT our communities and

One thing my mom passed onto me is my LOVE for good music. I had no business singing about “The Cleanup Woman” at 8 years old. 🤦🏽♀️Thankful for this legend. Saddened that she’s no longer with us.

And now we wait. I’m live in Fort Lauderdale as results roll in for the Nikki Fried campaign. We’ll soon find out if she or Rep. Charlie Crist will face Gov. Desantis in the Florida gubernatorial race.
