Starting Your Dreams Later In Life and Embracing the Detour

Jenee Darden speaking at Creative Mornings I know it's been a while since I've posted anything but that's because of my job. I'm working as a reporter covering Oakland and I host an arts segment on the radio where I get to interview amazing artists from around the Bay Area. Plus I'm publicizing my book  and building my speaking career!  You know what's funny? I thought this would all happen by the time I was 27-30.  Nope. That wasn't God's plan for me. I'm finally beginning to do the things I've wanted to do and I'm almost 40 years old. Some people reading this who are 40 will say 40 is still young. But some younger people reading may think 40 is nearly ancient. But I'm writing this post for those who like me, thought their career and personal dreams would come true much early in life.

Why Hate on Ayesha Curry For Living the Good Life?

The cover of Ayesha's Curry new book
Ayesha Curry has been receiving a lot of unfair, sexist comments and misogynoir in reaction to her new book, upcoming TV show and restaurant. She responded to one idiot on Instagram who attacked her for being domestic and benefiting from her husband's fame. This idiot said she should be encouraging young women to go to college and build their success without a man.

I'm surprised she responded to this foolishness. But I've seen other people attack her for this on social media. I wonder if these same people attack the wives of famous men like Jerry Seinfeld, Donald Trump. John Legend and countless others whose husbands fame helped give them even more visibility. Probably not.

I made a video responding to the jealous, bitter, crabs who think Black women shouldn't be happy. Some people have a problem when we're living the good life. I hope Ayesha takes those crabs out of the barrel and roasts their pathetic behinds in garlic and butter on high heat. Click on the video to watch and PLEASE SHARE IT.
