About

 

ShayShay Tries is one woman trying her way through life and doing a damn good job at it.

This blog is for the unapologetic millennial woman of color. For women who:

  • Say yes to life and no to the things that make them feel unfulfilled
  • Stay #BookedAndBusy
  • Slay a sidewalk like it’s a Paris runway
  • Spend their free time sifting through IG travel pages searching for the next jealously inducing vacay
  • Enjoy whipping up a dish in the kitchen just as much as they enjoy snagging a rezzy at a new restaurant
  • Bump trap music on the regular or spontaneously belt out all the lyrics to a Ja Rule and Ashanti collab like it’s 2001 (Just me? Cool. #SorryNotSorry)

If you said “Yasss, gurl, yasss!” to any of these, then this blog is for you. If you said yes to all of these, then we are probably Soul Sister Soulmates.

 

I am always looking for adventure, something fresh, fun, and new to try, and most importantly I *usually* don’t regret it.

 

This blog is called ShayShay Tries for a reason. I’m definitely not an expert. But, I’m learning and growing each day. I’ve always been driven by success, but trust and believe failures will definitely come along the way.

 

One of the biggest things I’ve ever tried is this blog itself! I’ve always been a writer and a reader (because if you wear glasses and don’t like reading it’s a crime against humanity…so I’ve been told). During my college years, I wrote for many lifestyle blogs and vowed to keep it up after graduation. I spent the next three years constantly on the edge of making it happen. Finally, with the support and encouragement of pretty much everyone who knew about my love for writing, I took the plunge and got started. The process has been overwhelming at times but I enjoy every minute I spend creating this body of work I’ve been so anxious to share with the world.

 

Keeping up with my blog can time consuming, so my solution to make sure you know everything that’s going on in my world is The TRYfecta.

 

The TRYfecta is my monthly newsletter designed to not only keep you current about what’s on the blog but to also inspire you with new monthly challenges to participate in. The best part is I’ll be doing them right along with you, trying our way through them together! I’m so excited to share this journey with all of you.
