So, lately I have been singing that lil song from “Cinderella”! Yeah, you know the one… ‘A Dream is a Wish your Heart Makes’! Today I will leave on my dream Bucket List trip. My heart has made a lot of wishes over the years, and the next 3 weeks I will fulfill many of my heart’s wishes.
~~~~~~
I am so honored to have been invited to Disney’s Dreamers Academy this year. Disney Dreamers Academy is a unique opportunity where they help to inspire, motivate and empower youth as they begin their journey to a future full of promise and endless possibilities. Disney, Steve Harvey, Essence Magazine, and many other celebrities spend time with wonderful young Dreamers to discover how we all can help make their career dreams come true.
~~~~~~
Quite fitting that my good friend and I are attending this wonderful event on my dream trip. What better way to celebrate dreams than to experience young dreamers as they dream the endless possibilities of their own future. I look forward to sharing this wonderful and powerful event with you…..until then everyone sing along with me…

“When you can dream then you can start
A dream is a wish you make with your heart
When you can dream then you can start
A dream is a wish you make with your heart”
