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. I'm here to tell you not to give up.  You know, death inspires life. A number of my relatives and friends have passed away, ranging in

Playboy Bunny Dani Mathers Needs to Worry About Her Own Body and Mind Her Damn Business

Photo from Snapchat 
Playboy's 2015 Playmate of the Year Dani Mathers is a jerk. A sick, perverted, mean, insecure, arrogant, body-shaming jerk. Trust me, there are others words I want to use to  better describe this woman. You've probably heard the story already. But I'll briefly rehash it. Mathers is in a LA Fitness women's locker room. Instead of minding her own damn business and focusing on her own ass (literally), she secretly photographs what looks to be a nude,  older woman, posts it on Snapchat with the caption "If I can't unsee this, then you can't either. "

Mathers apologized for getting caught, and said she is new to Snapchat. She thought the photo she posted was for private eyes. That's not the point. Why the hell is she taking photos of other nude women?! Why is that woman's body any of her damn business?!

What infuriated me about her actions was that she posted that photo out of arrogance. For many, Dani Mathers is the ideal beauty--young, thin, blonde and white with big boobs. She was Playmate of the Year for goodness sakes!  Whether her blonde hair and boobs are natural or paid for is another discussion. She knows she represents the ideal beauty. She knows there are women around the world busting their ass at the gym and on hiking trails, eating salad and quinoa, putting their fingers down their throats, feeling guilty after eating a sprinkled doughnut because they want her body. And her beauty-privileged, cold-hearted ass insulted another woman's NAKED body on social media because she didn't fit our culture's beauty standard.

Many people don't like undressing at locker rooms because of fear of judgement. Dani Mathers judged this woman in front of the world. She's a pervert for secretly photographing a naked woman in a locker room. She needs to be criminally charged.

I'm glad L.A. Fitness banned her from all of their gyms. She deserves to be suspended indefinitely from her radio gig at KLOS in Los Angles and all of the anger people are throwing at her. As the women elders in my family say, "God don't like ugly."

 I've crossed women like Mathers. They insult other women because inside they don't feel good about themselves. So they put others down to build themselves up. A woman secure in her beauty and life doesn't focus on other people's looks. I lived in LA and beauty is everything there. But this was low. If she truly was confident in herself as a woman, she wouldn't be paying attention to the lady in the gym.

The shade that Mathers threw at this woman backfired. Mathers showed the world who's really the ugly one. And there ain't enough foundation, silicone, Botox, lip gloss, concealer, hair dye, etc. to beautify her repulsive soul.
