I was in a relationship with my Son's Father for eight years, and as time passed It became clear that we weren't on the same path.

As much as I loved him, we just couldn’t make things work, during our relationship I became seriously ill and I was near death, I was taking seven different medications on a daily basis.

Determined to live and see my son grow up, I sought out holistic remedies for my illness. I began a plant-based diet and began a regimen of healing herbs. I studied Holistic Medicine as if my life depended on it because it did.

After years of research and strict discipline, I began to feel better to the point that my illness has been in remission for f...

After nearly five breathless days of vote-counting, the American people -- and the world -- got the news Saturday: Joe Biden would be the next president of the United States. So, where to now, nation? CNN Opinion asked 26 commentators to consider the question: What does the outcome of this election say about America in 2020? The opinions are their own.

Penn Jillette: You have one job, Joe

Okay, so it's not over, there will be court fights, but Joe has won. I used to identify as Libertarian, I used to have opinions on government. I used to think I disagreed with Joe Biden on most everything, but I voted for him. I wanted the other guy fired and I wanted Joe hired and for me the job description...

Certified Sex Coach

I am very fortunate to currently be attending the Woodhull Sexual Freedom Summit in Arlington, VA. This is my first conference, primarily because I never knew they existed, and I encourage everyone to attend this and conferences like it. It’s profound how much your knowledge is tested when around a diverse group of people that share a common goal, sexual freedom for all, and have multifaceted views, methods and means on how to achieve it. Sexual freedom is a basic, Creator given right of life for everyone and as long as consent is freely given, who and how you decide to have sex is your damn business.

I have had the chance to meet so many interesting pe...

FLORIDA — Miami's rodent problem improved slightly in the past year and it shows in the city's ranking among America's "Rattiest Cities," the annual report from pest control company Orkin. Miami comes in at No. 20 on the company's 2019 rankings released, down one slot from the year before.

This is the sixth year that Atlanta-based Orkin has compiled the rankings, which are based on the number of rodent treatments the company performed from Sept. 15, 2018 to Aug. 31, 2020. It includes both residential and commercial treatments.

But Miami is not the only Florida city with a critter problem. Orkin said that Tampa is No. 41 on the list, down one place from a year earlier. Orlando ...

Dear Dr. Sabrina,

I am really struggling during the Pandemic and Political season. I am a Black Republican and I have had so many attacks from friends, family members, co-workers, and even church members. I understand that people are all over the place with emotions for various reasons. I struggle with this because a very dear friend who we have been friends for 30years, has attacked me for our difference in political views.

I have told her that we should stay away from discussions on politics. I am the Godmother to her children, and she was my maid of honor in my wedding. We share so many things in common, love for music, comedy, our taste in men, and our stro...

Feel like a celebrity, or maybe stay in the room next to one.

Booking a hotel in Los Angeles means deciding between icons brimming with history on the east side (Hollywood) and the west (Santa Monica)—not to mention new stars all across town, including classic Beverly Hills and the constantly-updating Downtown. (Tough choice, we know.) Our advice? Split your trip and base yourself in multiple neighborhoods—the pockets of Los Angeles are so different from one another it feel like two getaways in one. Our picks span locations, experiences, and price ranges; in other words, when it comes to places to stay in this town, there's something for every...

Celebrities went all out…Did not hold back on Halloween Costumes.

By: Latrice Delgado-Macon

This year high-fashion Halloween moments. Kylie Jenner dressed up as a king cobra snake and did so by slithering into a bodycon Mugler look. (Her and her friends also dressed as the Power Rangers this weekend.) Cardi B dressed up as a glittering Medusa, complete with a custom, dripping-in-gold outfit by designer Laurel DeWitt. Victoria Beckham dressed up as a terrifying clown—but a chic clown who wears Beckham’s own label. A killer clown with good taste.

Elsewhere, other stars looked to classic films or characters for their Halloween costume inspiration as well. Chrissy Teigen, for in...
