How would you define your leadership style? Once a week, my church meets virtually for Bible study. Typically, in Bible study you would read and study a scripture or a sermon. But sometimes my church reads through a book selection and we discuss it during Bible study. We are currently reading “Navigating The Journey: Lessons for Longevity in Ministry” written […]
“Small Gestures, Big Impact”
How has your week been? Last Thursday, January 20th, I was officially sworn in as an Executive Board member of the Georgia Association of Black Women Attorneys (“GABWA”). I know, I know. Some of yall are thinking “dang this girl does it ALL!” or “dang this girl is doing TOO MUCH!” “She just told us she is a new member […]
“A Friendly Reminder”
What’s your favorite day of the week? I like to think that one of my contributions to the community is my Monday Motivational Messages that I share on my YouTube channel every week. They’re not pretty. They’re not super long. And they’re sometimes recorded at the last minute on a Sunday evening. I also don’t know how many people in […]
“GO!”
What’s a new endeavor you thought of starting but haven’t pressed GO yet? What are you waiting for? A lot of people know me as a lawyer, but I want to share the quirky, not-so-perfect, and relatable moments of my life with you! I am 30 years old, single, a dog mom to one doggy named Cole, a devout Christian, […]

“Black Bitcoin”
How would you define faith? Yesterday, I invested my first $10 in Bitcoin. A major reason why I chose to do so is included in this post, which was originally published on SALtoshi Whitepaper last week, Sal’s blog. Sal and I collaborated once before, and I’m so glad we did again. I hope you enjoy this piece, “Black Bitcoin,” and […]
“Good Trouble”
What tools do you need to sharpen in your toolbox? Welp, as of yesterday, I am a law student AGAIN. How can an attorney be a law student? Besides the annual requisite continuing legal education (“CLE”) credits that all attorneys in the State of Georgia need each year, I haven’t taken any form of legal class since I became an […]
“The Gift of Gab”
Have you ever been to a public speaking seminar? Hi, my name is Imani and I am a lawyer. I am a criminal defense attorney and the way I like to describe “what I do” to other people (usually on the dating apps) is like this: I talk a lot and makeup stories. My last name is Carter and us […]
“4, 5, or 0? You Tell Me!”
Are you living to work or working to live? Picture this — your typical Sunday evening. Whatcha doin’? What do those evenings look like for you? For me, they usually look like cooking dinner for the upcoming week and planning my workout days. The workouts I’ll have to get in during the wee early morning hours before I have to […]
“Don’t Forget About You!”
When was the last time you chose yourself over someone else? Y’all remember the TV anime show Pokémon? Where the Pokémon Trainer would have a Poké Ball and choose their Pokémon based on the battle they were in and what abilities and skills it had? (Sorry if that wasn’t a truly accurate description of the show, but I haven’t watched […]
