So I know I normally do my "What I'm into Wednesdays" series on Wednesday, but today I'm doing something a little different.If you follow me in social media (which you totally should - "like" my Facebook page and follow me on Twitter) then you saw that I posted an interview I did with Rosetta Thurman of happyblackwoman.com back in 2010. I don't know how I stumbled on that interview again but it is really good! Though the discussion is four years old, the advice offered by Rosetta is timeless. I ended up re-listening to the interview and taking notes!This got me curious to see what other gems were hiding in this blog from 3 and 4 years ago. As it turns out, there are a lot of "oldies but goodies" in my archives!
