2022 YEAR RECAP PART ONE.

Hello beautiful people! It's been a long time and a long time it has been. Did you miss me? I actually missed writing. I didn't do it this year because I wanted to give myself time to live in the moment. And quite frankly, I ran out of things to write about and it's kind of absurd to say because so much happened this year that I wanted to share but I just didn't know how to. So before the year ends, I will give you a RECAP of my 2022. 

January : I got a new job as an insurance and investment agent. Let me tell you that this month was full of blessings. As I started the new position, I also received a message from Amy Iliza to be a part of her audiobook for Late Bloomer  ( Now available on Spotify under Erah : LATE BLOOMER PART 1,2&3) not only THAT, but I also had the privilege of collaborating with a brand I have been wearing that I've loved since the beginning called TRENCHLIFE. (To order yours, go to: tenchlifeapparel.com)

February: My sister had asked me to be a part of her beautiful wedding and we went bridesmaids dress shopping. I have not been a part of a wedding in so long that I really did enjoy this part the most.

March: I was invited to a friend's dowry. Of all things, I absolutely love traditional weddings. It has a different feel to it and I enjoyed it more because I went with my mother. I had so much fun it was just great!

April: As I was preparing for the recording of the Audiobook, we suffered the loss of Mr. Witney Saint-Vil whom I had the immense pleasure of meeting. Such a sweet and amazing soul. It hit hard because he took me in not just as his daughter's friend but as his daughter as well. He made sure to leave an impact by telling his story and for that, the earth truly lost a great one. May his soul rest in heavenly peace.

May:  I took a trip to Toronto. Though I didn't fully finish the mission, I had the opportunity of visiting the Sandbox Virtual reality game room. I have always seen it on social media but never tried it. It was an experience that felt so real. I panicked and quit the game early so I must do it again and finish the mission to give more details about it. None the less I had a great time with my friends.

June : This year, I wanted to go through with my plans even if I didn't feel like it. I really wanted to have fun this summer, so I planned my 28th Birthday. I went to an amazing restaurant then went to a vineyard. I was surrounded by so much love, it was amazing. The same month, I went to Montreal to celebrate the Congolese Independence Day and met some amazing people. Safe to say that for once, my birthday month was successful.

Dear God, 

I thank you for your love. This first half of the year felt like you had a hand in my plans and my life all along. Thank you for your protection.

Dear Reader, you made it to the first half of the year and I thank you. Stay tuned for PART TWO!

GLOTALKS SHOW - S1E3 - LOVE IS MUSIC W/ JEFF SANON

Image
 " Where do you draw your inspiration from? " - Gloria M. On this week's episode of the Glotalks Show , I had the pleasure of sitting down with the multifaceted artist, Jeff Sanon . I wanted to delve into his creative journey and get some insights on it. I explored the many roles he embodies in his artistic endeavors and I believe I got answers to questions we've all been curious about. Before I met Jeff, I heard many good things about him. I may be biased but his music really stood out to me. And when I had the opportunity to meet him in person and watch him in his element, I was more impressed because the little time I spent around, made me respect the many hats he wears. He is a singer, songwriter, rapper, producer and executive producer. But above all, he is a student first. His understanding of music is what blew my mind.  I got to watch him turn my words into a beautiful song. I wanted to give him his flowers while simultaneously picking his brain. I really want...

GLOTALKS SHOW - S1E4 - EXECUTIVE DECISIONS W/ GLORIA MWANGE

Image
 " You're in it now! You can't quit!!" - Claudia Etwyse I remember briefly writing about executive decisions about two years ago. It has been something that's been placed on my heart ever since. When I wrote about it, it was a moment of clarity that happened while I was in Congo.  This time, when it was time for a solo episode, I tapped into that and the experience launching the  Glotalks Show  gave me. I used to be someone who needed a second or third opinion before making a decision. I never truly trusted my own instincts and even the decisions I made. But this time, I had to force myself out of the comfort zone and believe that the choices I made, were great and even if they weren't, at least, I get to reflect on them myself rather than blame others.  In this episode, I addressed my desires of answering the famous question " WHY". To know the why, is to understand the trajectory of your life. I also spoke about the story with my videographer, it h...

GLOTALKS SHOW - S1E5 - I WAS BORN WITH IT W/ JESSIE SIMMONS

Image
 " People are full of wisdom. " - Jessie Simmons This week's episode was very special to me. I sat down with Jessie Simmons , a multi-faceted artist from Ottawa, to discuss her journey through the music business. From overcoming industry challenges to the creation of her debut album " AMONI ," Jessie shares her experiences, insights, and the inspiration behind her music. When I was writing down the names of the first 10 guests for the  Glotalks Show , Jessie was the first one on my list. I've always been fascinated by her story and seeing as she continues to break barriers, the story becomes more and more interesting. When we met, she made it a point to scope me out of the crowd and introduce me to her entourage. As years went by, we got closer but, even then, her passion for music always shined through. So when I got the opportunity to sit down with her and talk about her life and journey in the music industry, I couldn't resist going back to the beginn...
