Hey Y'all, I'm Lauren
I am the grand-daughter of Otis and Betty Merritt, Lula and Milton Boone and the daughter of Milton and Glenda Boone. That makes me a bold, spunky, loving, and full of laughter woman of faith! I am carried everyday by the willingness and faith instilled in me by my ancestors to show up and live fearlessly authentic. I am more than what the world will try to box me in as, so I invite you all to get to know me a little while you're here. My writings, videos, and digital talk show, Take Up Space are all ways for you to do so. Now, I told y'all I am full of laughter so prepare to laugh, cause one thing about it and two things for sure, life will make you cry and question things so you might as well learn to laugh. Check out my official bio below.
