Happy Birthday to Monette!

Such a gorgeous life so far: from 5 brilliant Broadway shows to starting her own ceramics business - all while juggling single mommyhood with the most grace, patience, and love I’ve ever seen contained in one tiny package.

As an artist herself, Monette has shared with me her dream of one day owning an art collection highlighting and uplifting other Black women artists.

So let’s make this one wish come true!

Monette recently fell in love with this piece. The artist’s description embodies why it resonates so much: Monette herself is “Alicia” blossoming, in her own way, into the most iconic human I know.

May 'Wunder' and wonder be with her for decades to come...
