About
I’m incredibly street savvy, witty and intelligent. I adapt quickly to all circumstances, so why was I only living but not thriving? I looked around for someone to blame. Then, I was forced to ask myself, “When did I stop being true to myself and pursuing the things that I love? “
It was within that moment, when feelings of hopelessness tried to creep in, that I decided “the norm” still wasn’t for me. I had to get back in tune with me again. So boldly, I dropped the conditioned, false representative of me.That wasn’t the real me. I longed for and went after, My true authentic Self, again. The me, that loved sitting on the stoop in the summer, kicking back, talking with friends. The me, that loved walking to Hollis Ave with my girls to Dollies, while all the fellas stopped what they were doing to give us their undivided attention.
Growing up in the hood, you don’t always know you aren’t in the best area. You just adapt & that, I always did. I decided to look deep inside of myself for that little girl, the true Me, that laughed at everything and believed anything was possible. Our neighborhood flourished until the crack era hit us, hard. And even in spite of all that, I praise and thank the Universe for being raised in the era and area I did. I was born and raised in a hip hop Culture, infused with traditional values.
Around the way girls, are females like me, from the hood. That’s NYC slang. We just say, “You know such and such, she’s from around the way”..New Yorker’s instantly know what that means. She’s the cutie that flows within all crowds but remains herself. A jack of all trades, assertive yet feminine. She’s cool with most and smart but most importantly..She’s that sexy sister in the hood, working hard, to make it out.
My blogs are where I talk freely, I curse..I often use slang because I talk how I talk with my girls from “around the way”…and there, I’m most free, being me without worrying about being politically correct or the proper usage of grammar, etc. I can write a dissertation, but it serves no purpose here. Plus, it’s too restrictive, stopping and blocking my flow. Here, I make my own rules. I take off my many hats and simply be, Me. “Triddykatsmeow.com” and “Triddykat.com” are based solely on my opinion and perspective. Enjoy!
Keep shining.

My Passion
My passion is understanding Universal language. Realizing the war within me was actually the blessing, not the curse…learning to tame that inner beast within, awakened me, allowing me to enjoy my life again. My rebirth. I live in the now again, I take risks again and I have become free spirited once more. I call it “umpth” it’s one’s zest and zeal for life. Life can kick the umpth out of you…but I got my “umpth” back! All of the hurt and betrayal from others were meant to taint my heart but didn’t. I decided no one would stop me. Guess what? I quickly discovered that the Universe backs me up, completely.
Healing my emotional wounds, has made me perfect. Society teaches us to cover or hide our imperfections but I recognize, my imperfections are exactly what makes me glorious and beautiful. I released the need of meeting anyone’s standard except my own. I no longer require another to make me happy, I encompass my own happiness. Releasing the need of validation, approval or acceptance from others because I validate, approve and accept myself. I don’t enter relationships from a needy space anymore…one of codependency. Now, I offer the gifts of liberation, light and love…knowing, having “peace of mind ” is worth, far more than gold..it’s freedom.
The ability to treat others right, with common decency and respect, is based only on who “YOU“ are as a person…not them. When I stopped expecting anything from those who don’t love themselves, it ushered in healing. My passion is to inspire others to want to become free of codependency. To pursue all that they were truly meant to be, in spite of their circumstances. I got out of my own way. Releasing toxic people, karmic cycles and thought patterns. I began to give myself, the compassion, the kindness and the love, I’ve always deserved. My doing so, triggered my awakening, which ignited transformation, restoration and healing. Discovering, all that I’d searched for, my entire life, in others, I’ve always possessed within. I’ve found the authentic self and came back home to “ME” and I must say, “It’s simply wonderful!”
Keep shining.

My Goals
My goal is to inspire hope in people, who may have lost their way but gave it their all, having others trying to steal their freedom, peace of mind and God given talents, from them. To remind people that the most embarrassing time of their lives will become the catalyst to the most powerful time in their lives. It can trigger an awakening…if one is willing to change his or her perspective. My goal is to to remind victims of any kind of abuse and codependency, to continue to fight for their independence, no matter how long it takes. No one has the right to control you. My goal is to remind them that starting over free, can be frightening but to do it scared anyway. Your awakening isn’t just about you, others need hope. Inspire.
My goal is to encourage people to forgive themselves and others, so that they can heal. My goal is to remind all, that we can trust Spirit…stand your ground but do so in integrity and character, remembering nothing happened to us, in vain. It is all, either a lesson or a blessing… Our choices will determine which one it becomes. Every human experience is intended for growth, on our soul’s journey. Release attachments and outcomes, give up having to know, letting the Universe surprise you. Live in now, that’s where your power lies… take none of life, personal it’s not!
Keep shining!
