A Life Well Lived
Born and bursting with light. From day one, she had a smile that could brighten any room.
The school years. The big hair. The bigger personality. She was already iconic.
Cool, confident, and coming into her own. The 90s couldn't contain her.
A single mother raising three beautiful children — surviving, thriving, and making it happen with the love and support of her village. Then in 2014, she said yes to the love of her life, John Echols. 💍
In 2018, she faced open heart surgery for a valve replacement — and came through it with grace and grit. Then in 2019, she stepped into her power as COO of R.J. Pierce Law Group. She didn't just survive — she leveled up. 👑
Radiant. Rooted. Ready for everything that's next. The best is absolutely still to come.
A Note from Sakeena
Because 50 deserves more than a ballroom and a buffet. Fifty deserves a moment — one that fills your soul, not just your calendar.
I chose to celebrate this milestone with my husband, with nature, with adventure, and with the kind of quiet joy that only comes when you stop performing and start living.
"I'm not slowing down at 50. I'm just getting started."
— SakeenaThis website is my way of bringing all of you along — my family, my people, the ones who cheered for me through every chapter. You don't have to be there to be there.
Follow along on the Costa Rica Diaries page as I zip-line through rainforests, soak in volcanic hot springs, ride ATVs through the jungle, and eat the most amazing food at tiny little restaurants with no menus and all the flavor.
Thank you for loving me. Here's to 50. 🥂
With love,
Sakeena
