ABOUT STACEY
WIFE & MOTHER
We are two African American women raising twin boys. We have been together since 2006 and married since 2007 and are enjoying the hell out of this journey called life together.
Before we knew each other, we were described by others as different. Either we weren’t “black” enough or we were just plain weird.
MOTIVATOR OF CHANGE
But, The status quo never appealed to us. Life is already confining, social norms and expectations are suffocating. Most of us are living lives dictated by others. We decided this is no way to live and out of this decision Life On Your Terms was born. With this platform, we want to inspire people to become the greatest version of themselves by sharing the greatest gift they have - YOU!

MEET CHERALYN
Hi, I'm Cheralyn! I'm beyond excited that you want to share this journey with me. My personal passions include being the absolute best individual, wife and mom (in that order) that I can be. I enjoy cooking nutritious meals for my family after taking on a healthy journey that involved losing over 100 pounds (read more about that here). I also absolutely love talking about the tips and tricks I have used along the way that have enabled me to maintain a successful relationship with my wife while traversing life's issues (see video here). The divorce rate is high enough, and that rate increases once you introduce kids into the situation. I love planning family connection events and activities while also making time to focus on couples only time.
