Hey yโ€™all Iโ€™ll introduce myself too. My name is Alicia Brayboy, Iโ€™m from Brooklyn, living in Los Angeles.

Iโ€™m an actress & filmmaker, I produce my own work-- rn I'm in post-prod. for my mini film series โ€˜Dreams.โ€™ I've been posting the journey on my IG, but I can post some updates here too.

I'm also a marketing consultant for business leaders here in SoCal & and I offer personal readings as a tarot card reader! You will see occasional tarot posts from me on here as well.

Nice to meet you all!

Thought I was gonna have a chill Saturday. Next thing I know, I get a DM on IG at 2am! asking to read tarot for a Moroccan party.

When I wake up (I slept in, I was knocked) They sent courier to my house with this outfit, I got dressed, packed my tarot stuff and headed to the event.

It was a fun time, but man was it a whirlwind! I was already out late the night before for the event I did on Friday. Both events were fun โ˜บ๏ธ

When was the last time you took some time for you? Self-care isnโ€™t a luxury, itโ€™s a necessity. That includes you too. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is say: โ€œI need a break.โ€

You canโ€™t pour from an empty cup. So next time you feel yourself approaching burnout, take some time to nourish yourself first. #theceodeck

Yo, march came through like a bullet train it was SO busy. Iโ€™m so happy I get to finally catch my breath in April.

Some highlights though: led a four part marketing series, was a live speaker at a marketing conference for two sessions, read tarot for SoFi Stadium / YouTube Theater which was a pretty big deal, and announced the CEO deck product launchโ€” which yโ€™all already know about!

It took EVERY OUNCE OF STRENGTH for me to make it through this month, and I am BEYOND f*ckin proud of myself.

Sometimes we fall out of sync with our dreams. Not because we no longer want them, but because external factors can play a louder role than weโ€™ve invited them to.

But your visions? Your ideas? Your projects? Thereโ€™s nothing accidental about them.

Do you remember your why? Sometimes reminding yourself why you started is enough to inspire you all over again. #theceodeck

Your empire doesnโ€™t have to be built overnight (and honestly it wonโ€™t). Remember, even the littlest steps lead to BIG progress.

Whatโ€™s one little step you can take today? #theceodeck

Lmk if you would like me to continue posting updates and inspirational messages here as well๐Ÿ˜Š #theceodeck
โ€”
Your version of discipline may vary from what society calls โ€œnormal.โ€ You may find yourself working in bursts, needing to take frequent breaks, or even stepping away from things altogether while you sort ideas out in your head. You may have a whole system that makes complete sense to you, while no one else understands it.

This does NOT mean you are lazy, unproductive or โ€œyou donโ€™t want it bad enough.โ€

Your definition of discipline may look different than others, and thatโ€™s oka

I can finally announce this! So another black woman boss babe (Yetti) & I created an inspirational deck for creative entrepreneurs. Itโ€™s called the Creative Entrepreneur Oracle deck (or the CEO deck for short).

Itโ€™s been a labor of love these past 9 months, and Iโ€™m both nervous and excited to share with you ๐Ÿ˜† Itโ€™s my first physical product that Iโ€™ve officially made for sale ever! These are just teaser pics, but pics of the actual deck are coming soon. #theceodeck

Had a powerful moment recently w/ artist Gary Tyler hearing his story & meanings behind his quilts.

Gary was wrongfully convicted of murder in Louisiana at age 16, sentenced to Death Row & remained in prison for 42years.

His quilts include self-portraits, frustration when his pardon was first rejected, addtโ€™l snapshots from prison & other stories he wanted to share.

Gary Tyler was finally released in 2016 at age 57. I was so sad and ANGRY but Gary was so calm and peaceful. โ€œDonโ€™t be sad, this is a celebration!โ€ He said. โ€œI understand it now. It humbled me but they couldnโ€™t break meโ€

So.. apparently I did have a Valentine today and I didnโ€™t even know ๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿ˜ขI was surprised with a knock on the door to such a lovely bouquet of hot pink roses & eucalyptus (he remembered I prefer pink)

You canโ€™t tell from the pics, but this baby is massive, like 30 inches tall! ๐Ÿ˜They are bringing me so much joy. I canโ€™t stop staring at them

Valentines for the zodiac signsโ€” hereโ€™s pt 3 (Air signs - Libra, Gemini, Aquarius)

Btw, I made valentines for the zodiac signs ๐Ÿคฃ hereโ€™s pt 1 (Fire signs - Aries, Leo, Sagittarius)

It was pretty chill and fun. They had two other women there in addition to me โ€” a psychic & a tea leaf reader

Iโ€™ve said โ€œwell itโ€™s not like Iโ€™ve been sharing drinks or making out with anyoneโ€ โ€œthe girls that get, GET IT (bosses name)!โ€ and โ€œI proposed a new time for our Monday 9am because I will be in actual forrestโ€ (TWO Rs ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ) to my director all within a span of a week.
