This is a very special day!

We at Rocky Roadville are bubbling over with excitement! Today we are featuring our very first young lady! The Magnificent Mackenzie. We are so honored to have her here. She is a warrior. I'm awed by her strength and resilience. Let her be a role model to us all.



"I have decided that my flavor is Rocky Road. It kind of describes my life in a nutshell with the ups and downs of life. But with a little faith, family and friends you can get through anything...and it is amazing."

Thank you, Mackenzie. You are very special. xoxo.

Let's Call it a "Character Education".

Let me explain:
There's nothing wrong with vanilla--it's fine, it's safe, it doesn't make a fuss. Now Rocky Road on the other hand, has a little bit of everything in it--a taste explosion, if you will. This is what I want in women. In a society where young girls associate self confidence to a swollen ego and "sassy" behavior, my intention is to create a space for young women and their parents, teachers, and mentors to re-instill the ethics we already know. To start conversations, debates, and sharing of stories that will will help us become the women we want to become or know we already are. Like I said, there is nothing wrong with vanilla, but there is something wrong with being vanilla and being fine with it, not wanting more. There are a million different flavors out there. Go! Explore! Find out what you want to be. Let's grab a spoon and dig in!
