Absolutely! A game charger. It’s not just for myself. I feel that for everybody.

Depth is required. That is how one separates themselves from the rest.

[Phyllicia La Reina @ilovephy]

It’s not enough to just paint pretty pictures.

[Phyllicia La Reina @ilovephy]

I feel a major shift is about to take place. I’ve been feeling a major pull to dive sea levels deep into work.

[Phyllicia La Reina @ilovephy]

There’s more. But in short, that’s why I’m truly grateful for life. Iykyk.

[Phyllicia La Reina @ilovephy]

Those seasons of adversity gave me grit. The constant no’s (which I still get) taught me resilience and faith.

[Phyllicia La Reina @ilovephy]

I remember when times got hard, me & @Saasha_FIERCE challenged each other to take a deep look at what “giving up” would look like. Long story short, we rode out those storms. Lol nothing was cute about going backwards. It was hard, but worth it.

[Phyllicia La Reina @ilovephy]

I couldn’t turn back if I wanted to (which I wouldn’t).
I’m in too deep and came too far.

[Phyllicia La Reina @ilovephy]

This season has been life changing.

[Phyllicia La Reina @ilovephy]

Move is insane. First half was cool. Low key gave me Black is King vibes. But when that second half came in…😩 that transition felt so damn good!

[Phyllicia La Reina @ilovephy]

The transitions on Renaissance are heat. 🔥 Not just from track to track, but also within the tracks.

[Phyllicia La Reina @ilovephy]

Plastic Off the Couch bass lines are crazyyyy. 🔥

[Phyllicia La Reina @ilovephy]

Renaissance is an album for the gworls.

Giving Bey a spin. Here we go.

Y'all be blessed out here in these streets!

[Phyllicia La Reina @ilovephy]

Believe in yourself. For real. At times, it's probably the only thing you will have. You can spin the block on my old tweets. None of this came w/o faith, staying solid to the vision, and actually 👏🏾putting👏🏾 in 👏🏾the 👏🏾work. You gotta do the work!

Yesterday was amazing. This chapter has been amazing. I try to live & be present in each moment I have because I know what it's like to have days when it's hard to push through. Yet, here, I stand.

[Phyllicia La Reina @ilovephy]

So yesterday I had an art show at the Salesforce Tower here in the city and it was an eye opener in so many ways. God be working. Here's a little background for context...

[Phyllicia La Reina @ilovephy]

When I step back and observe, I realize I'm actually living the chapter I always wanted to see. At times, it's a little trippy, but everything is moving..and seamlessly. Even in times when I have to pivot.
