she/her

Bonjour bonjour.
This is Mentor Cynthia.

Here I share my real life—marriage, romance, beauty, family, and personal growth. I’m a wife, a Harvard student at 55, a widow advocate, founder of a beauty brand, and a woman who believes it’s never too late to evolve.

You’ll find conversations about:
• Keeping love alive in marriage
• Living with grace and intention
• Returning to yourself at any age
• Building a beautiful life—inside and out

This channel is for women who still believe in elegance, depth, and doing life well.

Thank you for being here. Let’s live beautifully—together 🌸

Yesterday (Sunday) I attended a beautiful Women in STEM Empowerment Brunch hosted by NSBE Boston. ✨

An inspiring space where beauty, innovation, and leadership came together—and where I had the pleasure of connecting with so many brilliant young Black women in STEM.

Supporting the next generation of leaders is always worth showing up for. 💫

Yesterday, I attended the 4th Annual Haitians at Harvard Conference, Leveraging Innovation to Impact Haiti.

With close to 500 attendees, it was an incredible gathering of students, leaders, and guest speakers. We came together to engage in thoughtful discussions on the state of Haiti and how innovation can drive meaningful impact.

It was truly a pleasure connecting with my fellow students, and the distinguished guests. I am confident our ancestors are proud.

I look forward to continuing these important conversations. Stay tuned for more.

As an elected Framingham Library Trustee and Vice Chair of the Women, Children & Families Commission, I had the honor of serving as MC for the 2nd Annual Framingham Women’s History Month event. It was an evening dedicated to celebrating the women, past and present, who have shaped and uplifted our community.

Moments like this remind me of the importance of showing up, using our voices, and honoring the legacy of those who paved the way.

A special moment here with my husband Dr. MacLean, Esq., and Mayor Charlie Sisitsky.

Smooth lips… and a gentleman who can’t get enough. 💄✨

There’s a certain kind of love… soft, attentive, and unforgettable.

And yes, the right lip makes it even sweeter. 💋

I truly wasn’t expecting this… 💎✨

What a beautiful evening at the Harvard Graduate Council Annual Masquerade Ball. 🎭 I came to enjoy the moment, embrace the elegance, and connect and somehow ended up being crowned Diamond of the Season for Best Dressed.

I guess a pageant queen is always a pageant queen… even in an academic setting. 😉👑

Congratulations to the Harvard Graduate Council for such an exquisite and memorable event.

Stay tuned for the crowning moment… it was full of surprises. 💎✨
