The other day I finally was able to sit down and watch Harlem. I’m not sure what I expected, but I didn’t expect to fall for these smart and sexy women. I literally watch the entire season in one setting.
In case you haven’t heard about Harlem it is a comedy series about four stylish women navigating their lives as they go through new relationships, careers and other transitions. The lead cast are played by Meagan Good (Think Like a Man), Grace Byers (Empire) Jerrie Johnson (Mother’s Milk) and Shoniqua Shandai (Bodied Devine Wright).
After watching the show I felt inspired, empowered and happy that I was able to see women of color on screen living their passion. The same goes for the accounts I follow on Instagram that completely inspire me to keep moving forward in a positive way.
To manifest your goals, it’s important that you are surrounded by positive movements; what you read, listen to and watch matter.
If you loved Harlem as much as I did, here are ten Instagram accounts that you will also love.
Taryn Newton | Blogger
One of my favorite mom bloggers who inspires my travel, home decor, family activities and kid product purchases. Taryn is a great follow for motherhood, lifestyle balance and family life.
Special congrat’s to Taryn who is a mom of four boys and expecting her first girl.
Tai Taylor | Digital Creator & Wellness
Tai is a great page to follow when you need to get your life and relearn to love yourself while accomplishing one goal at a time. Her motto, that I love, is “do it anyway”; no excuses, just do it.
Cecile Jordan | Social Media Manager
I love Cecile’s story. If you need inspiration to quit that 9 to 5 and launch your business her page is a great follow. She did that shit! She overcame her personal journey, found her happiness and launched her own business. Kudos to this beauty!
Mel Douglas | Digital Creator & Yoga Teacher
Okay, so I’m not a big fan of yoga but Mel’s page screams let’s set a whole mood with music, coffee, candles and do some yoga moves. Her page is care free, eccentric and you can tell she is living her best life and everyone is invited! No drama allowed.
Tina M. | Content Creator
You know those Instagram pages you follow that make you want to update your resume and rethink your profession. Well, Her Life Sparkles is one of those pages. I suggest visiting her page to immediately check out her home first (and you will say the same O-M-G), then you can enjoy her family adventures and parenting style. Tina is super successful and blessed, but she remains humble and grateful. Her and her hubby do a fabulous job of showcasing what you can get when two people come together and build a partnership.
Sparkle Anahata | Mindset & Spiritual Coach
Sparkle’s energy is on a whole other level. I love to visit Sparkles page early Monday when I’m feeling ughhh and need a boost for the week. She is always moving, whether dancing, working out, or enjoying family life. Her energy motivates me to get shit done! Positive messages, smiles and manifesting her best life, is what you will find by following her page.
Her Therapy Space | Mental Health Practice
Her Therapy Space is a great platform to receive mental health tips for women of color. Working from home, being a busy mom of three, sometimes I feel like I am losing my marbles. However, pages like Her Therapy Space keeps me sane. Her platform allows you to say that you are not okay and that’s okay.
Ashley Rhae | Yoga Teacher
Ever met those super dope women who do it all and you wonder how they have the time?! Okay, meet Ashley Rhae of Yoga and Mahogany. She’s a Yoga teacher, wellness creator and lawyer. Yup, lawyer! I love her page, not only for the colors – but she sends the message that women can have a professional career, plus go after their passions. She is the definition of women who can balance it all, with the right attitude and hard work.
Alana | Confidence Coach
Alana page is an amazing tool for setting those healthy boundaries and building the confidence you need to be a kick-ass boss babe. She will help you create healthy habits and push you to be your best self without burning out.
Jordyn Dunlap | Daily Abiding Media & Co.
Daily Abiding Media & Co. is founded by Jordyn Dunlap and is a great page resource for media tips. Running and growing a business from your laptop without a team is hard work. Pages like Daily Abiding Media help to give you great tips and must haves that you need to be successful without breaking the bank.
So, here are my favorite ten instagram accounts to follow for inspiration that helps me level up and manifest my goals. If you are gearing up for a #hotBossSummer I suggest you follow them as well.
