- Be sure to check out this week’s column of Preserved By Purpose with Dr. Shewanda Riley.
This week she discusses how author Tia McCollors reminds us that putting things off isn’t just about laziness—it’s a mix of not wanting to do something, not knowing how to start, and poor time management. Sometimes, it’s even a quiet rebellion against expectations.
But here’s the truth: admitting you procrastinate isn’t enough. To reclaim your dreams, you have to take action. Stop being an accessory to the crime—go after what you want NOW! ⏳✨

- HillmanTok University, a virtual learning institution, has gained popularity after a snow day in Georgia and a viral TikTok video led by Dr. Leah Barlow.
The platform, initially offering courses such as screenwriting 101 and Black beauty culture, has expanded to include over 400 courses, with no tuition fees. The team is actively exploring partnerships with historically Black colleges and universities to expand opportunities.
Despite the success, concerns remain about the platform’s future due to the uncertain fate of TikTok in the U.S.
