    “The Magic of Embracing the Unknown”

    Once upon a time, long, long ago, we were able to experience the sheer magic of venturing to foreign lands and inhaling new experiences, cultures, and foods. But, as author, Nicole Vick, explains in her new book, “Pushing Through”, traveling, even without the threat of Covid-19, can be incredibly terrifying, especially as a first-time adventurer who’s doing it solo. In the excerpt below, Nicole shares how she pushed past her fears of leaving the familiar behind to embrace the wonder and magic of exploring a new country.

    Celebrating Black History With “The Madness Collective” Creator, Crescent Muhammad…

    As Black History Month draws to a close, AmPopsy had the chance to sit down with a few dynamic women who are making waves in their respective industries to discuss their thoughts and reflections on celebrating the rich history of African-Americans this month and every month. In our final interview for this series, we speak with Crescent Muhammad, creator and host of “The Madness Collective”, a weekly online show featuring firecracker commentary from Crescent and her co-host, Antwane Cowen, on the major news and entertainment headlines of that week. Below, she speaks on the impact of growing up watching activism in action, finding hope through social media, and the new Black Renaissance.

    Automate and Chill: Your Guide to Becoming a Financial Automaton

    What is an automaton? Specifically, what is a financial automaton? You quietly ask yourself if you should consult the Googler but fret not- I am here to explain. An automaton, a word often used in similes and comparisons, refers to a person who seems to act in a mechanical or unemotional way. Add finances to the mix, and basically, I am suggesting that you should strive to become a robot in (some) money areas. Why operate as an automaton/robot? Because they do what they are pre-programmed to do with no hesitation. If you are able to successfully automate your income, then you will experience what it feels like to make moves for your future without unnecessary stress or extra time taken away from your already full day.   Here are some simple steps that you can do to streamline your cash flow: Set up Direct Deposit through your job (if possible). Not only will you be saving time, but you’ll often receive your paycheck as early as 12am on Fridays. Party! Register for Bill Pay and Paperless Billing. You will literally be saving the planet while simultaneously ridding yourself of late fees, interest charges, and, possibly, overdraft fees. Pay Yourself First. You can,...

    Making Room For Faith

    Very recently, I hit a wall. Not a literal wall, but rather the kind of wall that made me not want to get out of bed and deal with all of the things going on in my life at the time. It was tough realizing that I felt that way. And I felt even worse when I realized I had no idea how to stop feeling that way. So, I turned to the one thing that always, always, ALWAYS helps me deal with difficult feelings and circumstances – my faith. Which is why I am so happy to share the following piece authored by AmPopsy contributor, Deidra George. A piece that helps all of us make room for faith and its close cousin, hope, in our lives. I’m sure that all of us are struggling with something right now, whether that be job-related stress, anxiety around money matters, or just all of the feelings that come with the one-year anniversary of our Covid-imposed quarantine. I hope that Deidra’s words will offer you a bit of comfort, hope, and light with whatever stressors life is throwing your way right now. Faith performs as a spiritual currency regardless of one’s religious beliefs.,...
