🙋🏾‍♀️INTRODUCTION🙋🏾‍♀️ . . Hello! It was pointed out to me that I’ve never done an official “introduction” before on social media. Well my name is Kiara and I’m the founder/owner of #SCHOOLGIRLHUSTLE. I’m a student, finishing up my PhD in education at #VCU — before that, I got my Master’s in ed from #UVA and my bachelor’s degree in sociology from #UofR (Univ. of Richmond). I have 2 children’s books surrounding social justice issues — self-publishing those and having my community work featured on CNN changed my life. Starting at around age 20, I was juggling being a young college student with traveling for speaking gigs, my own tv show on public access, shoe drives & community events, news appearances, you name it. A crazy, fun journey that I thank God for blessing me with! I teach, I write, I love God, food, travel, thrifting, all things social justice and spending time with my family and friends. I like to call myself the most serious goofball you’ll ever meet because well, I’m the person that loves to laugh (and is often laughed AT frfr) but I know how to be serious when it comes down to it. I created #SCHOOLGIRLHUSTLE as a response to the experiences I’ve had and the experiences of other women trying to get through school and accomplish their goals, their DREAMS. It is NOT an easy journey, I know first hand. Quite a few times, I had considered dropping out (or circumstances made me consider it), ran across the wrong people who didn’t necessarily support me and my goals, had moments of wanting to give up and so much more I’ll share at another time. Because of that, I wanted to create a platform to support us while we do the damn thing and some t-shirts to show off our PRIDE in our hustle. And of course, proceeds from the shirts go toward school supplies for girls in need here in Richmond, VA. Since I started #SCHOOLGIRLHUSTLE, I’ve had the pleasure of fully sponsoring 3 girls (one per year - 2 elementary school-aged students and one high school-aged student) with their school supplies and other needs thanks to your support! More to come for YOU from SGH soon. . . #RVA #DMV #804 #VCU #queensonly #motivation #blackgirlsrock #yougotthis #collegelife #dreambig

🍫 If you’re like me, you have so much you *should* be doing but at times, it’s just hard to get right down to it and...do it. Then you find yourself putting off work like whoa. It feels good but it feels bad at the same time. Sometimes we have to motivate ourselves to work. Sometimes, dangling a carrot (i.e. treating yourself to ice cream only after you finish a task, telling yourself you can go out with your friends once you finish some of your work, etc.) is what gets us working. Let’s be real, no one likes to work allllll the time. The right balance of work and play will help the work get done. Try it! 🍭 . . #SCHOOLGIRLHUSTLE #motivation #stressedout #workhardplayharder #alittleatatime #highschool #collegelife #gradschoollife #diversifymedicine #medschoollife #graduation2019 #thefutureisfemale #wegotthis #youbettawerk #benicetoyourself

I’m lacking in this area myself — big time — and everyone around me has been telling me. It’s hard when you’ve got a lot going on and your dreams keep getting bigger and bigger, I know I know. BUT when that cup is empty you won’t be able to do much of anything...at least not as much as if it were full. Self care doesn’t have to be a day at the spa or a trip to an island. It can be sitting in silence to gather your thoughts. It can be eating healthy or splurging and getting that ice cream you’ve been craving. I’m gonna do some self care today, even if it’s the smallest thing. You should too queen. Do it for you! . . #SCHOOLGIRLHUSTLE #selfcare #itsalifestyle #putyoufirst #queensonly #happyandhealthy #loveyourself #prioritize ✨

Giving the keynote address about youth, trauma and resilience at the Black Male Emergent Readers (BMER) Program’s Black Author Celebration. I was the first female keynote speaker for this annual event. It was a great time filled with fellowship and challenging community conversation. It was also pretty cool to run into folks who have my books and have been following my journey. I am forever humbled that God has put me on this path. . . #schoolgirlhustle #RVA #DMV #Richmond #blackhistorymonth #blackmenread #blackmenrock #richmondpubliclibrary #blackauthors #readingisfundamental #writingisfundamental ✨

It’s so important to document what you’re doing. Don’t forget about all the dope things you’re doing or have done in the past when it’s time to apply. Whether you’re applying now, later or it’s a maybe far far in the back of your mind, open up a Word doc and take note of everything: that time you volunteered at the nursing home, that project you helped with, that blog post you wrote...everything! The schools want to see what you do and that you’re well rounded. . . #schoolgirlhustle #resume #CV #youredope #dontforget #college #gradschool #applytocollege #RVA #804 #DMV #advice #hustle #futuredoctors #futuremba #futurephd #diversifymedicine #futurelawyers #blackwomanphd

Work hard, party harder (when possible, and sleep) | Defending my dissertation in the next few months. This means when I’m not working, I’m living life to the fullest (and/or sleeping), and while the world is sleeping, I’m working. My plan is God’s plan. . . #phdinprogress #schoolgirlhustle #May2019 #blackwomanphd #gradschoolgrind #blackgirlmagic #gettinghooded #grindhardshinehard
