It’s a new year, happy 2015 everyone! When I first began blogging, I knew exactly what I wanted to do and why I wanted to blog… to inspire and help women & children.
As my blogging journey unfolded, I was faced with many choices. As a blogger, I want to help others, but I also want to be able to help my family. I’ve accepted many sponsored posts in the past, some paid well-while others were just reviews. Typically a review post is just that, you are sent an item to review and write about-that’s it…no money exchanges hands.
I never intended for Mommy Powers to become a “Review Blog”. Yes, I enjoy trying new products and sharing them with you guys, but I want this space to be so much more than just that. I want to write about important topics, I want to share my journey as a Biracial Latina raising children that are half African American. I want to help women that are being battered in their homes, women that have suffered miscarriages, kids that are being bullied at school, moms that face discrimination because of their skin color or socio-economic status, parents of special-needs children. I want to be a voice for Mother’s of brown-skinned boys-boys that are prejudged the moment they step foot outside their homes. All of these topics are important to me.
In addition, I’m considering merging my Food/Travel blog This Mama Can Cook, with Mommy Powers. (That will probably be much later down the road.)
For the time being, be ready for a new, sleek updated look – I hope you’ll like it.
Thank you for always supporting me. It’s gonna be a great year!
