Coloring Outside the Lines: A Little Piece of My Journey for You
Sometimes, you need something that doesn’t require an answer.
No deadline. No argument to make. No problem to solve. No pressure to perform.
Just a few quiet minutes, a box of crayons or colored pencils, and permission to decompress.
That’s really where the idea for these coloring pages came from.
As I looked back over old photos from different seasons of my life, I realized how many of them represented more than just a moment captured on camera. They told a story. College. Law school. Courtrooms. Community service. Graduation. Public speaking. Adventure. Family. Mentorship. Leadership. Becoming.
Some of the pictures made me smile because I remembered exactly who I was in that moment. Some reminded me how far I had come. Others reminded me that there were places I once stood in physically, professionally, or personally that I had prayed to reach long before I ever got there.
And I wanted to memorialize that journey in a different way.
Not just for me.
For you, too.
I wanted to create something that lets you see these moments and maybe imagine yourself in them.
Maybe you see yourself walking across an HBCU campus.
Maybe you see yourself graduating.
Maybe you see yourself standing in a courtroom, sitting behind a desk, serving your community, traveling somewhere new, speaking into a microphone, mentoring someone coming behind you, or stepping into a room you once wondered whether you belonged in.
That matters to me because representation is powerful.
Sometimes seeing somebody else in a place makes that place feel a little more reachable.
That is especially true for young people.
I want the little girl coloring the lawyer standing in the courtroom to think, I could do that.
I want the student coloring the HBCU graduate to imagine their own cap and gown.
I want somebody who has never pictured themselves as a lawyer, leader, advocate, speaker, traveler, entrepreneur, or change-maker to start coloring in a possibility they had never considered before.
And I also want grown folks to enjoy these pages simply because coloring is fun.
Because adults need creative breaks, too.
