How to Get a Free Doctoral Degree

Hey Guys! It’s been awhile right?! I know but I am back and ready to give you all the information you need! If you missed it last week on my channel , I discussed how you can get a free doctorate degree. If you’ve been following my doctoral journey, then you know that I am currently working towards my doctoral degree in higher education. I recently finished all of my coursework and I am officially working on my dissertation proposal this semester. I chose to work at a university so that I could not only work with students but so that I could also receive a discounted education. In the beginning of my journey, I received a $1,600 stipend towards my courses, and I paid fees out of pocket. I also received several scholarships along the way that helped to cover most of my fees. Last year my university decided to cover doctoral degrees at 100% for all professional staff which was a major benefit. While I understand that most folks do not want to join the education world don’t let this s

Adult Daily Living Skills: Healthy Grocery Shopping



 Well y’all all that eating everything I wanted during my San Antonio & Austin trips has finally caught up to me! A few weeks ago I went to the doctors for a physical ( my first one EVER!) and I learned that my cholesterol was through the roof! Now I thought I ate pretty healthy and I even exercise on a regular basis but my LDL of 275 said very differently! Your LDL or bad cholesterol is what makes you prone to heartaches and strokes so I definitely was a little nervous.

Since I got this news I’ve decided to add an extra day of exercise and I’ve increased my leafy greens and fresh fruits. Each week I’ve gone to the grocery store and spent less than $10 on these items since they usually last me through the week. I can only hope that this decreases my cholesterol and helps me to drop a few pounds too! As an African American woman I know that I may be predisposed to high blood pressure and diabetes so I definitely want to do everything in my power to make sure my health is on point. Health is wealth y’all!

Here are a few other healthy snacks that I’ve also incorporated:

1. Carrots
2. Trail Mix
3. Grapes
4. Mandarin Oranges
5. Yogurt

What healthy snacks are you into? Am I missing out on anything ? Drop down in the comments and let me know! I have another scheduled doctors appointment tomorrow to run some more tests so I’m hoping to hear some good news ! Be sure to check back for a follow up on how my cholesterol is doing and check out my latest video below.

Fall Refunds are Here for College Students

 It’s my favorite time of the semester…REFUNDS! A few weeks after the semester begins all of your financial aid pays out and if there’s any left over you get a refund! You will know that your receiving a refund if there’s a negative balance on your account. It’s the one time in history where you actually want to see a negative balance!  Figure 1: This is a thumbnail of my latest YouTube video where I am in my office with a surprised look on my face.  This semester I paid $241 in fees and I received a $500 grant for individuals who work at community colleges. Oh yeah  did I mention I work at a community college too part time as a tutor? Anyhoo, since I had already paid off my student account I received the $500 as a refund. If you’ve been watching my YouTube videos or reading my blogs then you already know this money is going to debt.  Figure 2: This is a photo of three $100 bills and three $50 bills. With refunds posting to accounts daily you want to make sure that you are constantly c

Fall 2021 HEERF & CARES Act Funding is Here!! (FREE Money for College Students!!)💵🤑💰

  A few days ago, I was surfing on my universities homepage and I noticed that there was a message at the top regarding summer II HEERF and CARES Act funding. Since I was enrolled in both summer semesters, I decided to send an email to the person listed as the contact to ask if I could receive more CARES Act funding for the fall semester. Since I had been enrolled in the first part of the summer and had already received funding I was not eligible but I was told that another round of CARES Act funding would be given in the fall! In case you did not know HEERF funding is the Higher Education Emergency Relief Act that was enacted for college students due to the pandemic. HEERF provides billions of support in education through CARES Act funding for enrolled students. Figure 1: This is a thumbnail of my YouTube video on “Fall 2021 HEERF & CARES Act Funding is Here” where I am wearing a black shirt with a surprised look on my face. Now while I am not sure on how much you will receive thi
