Third spaces — the coffee shops, gyms, libraries, and local spots where we casually connect with others — are disappearing, and it’s making us lonelier than ever. Over 60% of Americans say they feel lonely at least some of the time, and too many of us are stuck in the cycle of just home, work, and maybe church.In this Pep Talk Wednesday, Tyra shares how to break out of that cycle by exploring your city like a tourist and creating third (and even fourth!) spaces that help you feel alive and connected again. You’ll learn how to notice the beauty right where you are, how to find hidden gems you’ll actually enjoy, and how to start living a fuller life today.Pep Talk Challenge: Pick one place or activity in your city you’ve never experienced before and make a day of it. It can be a solo date, but it could also be fun to get the whole family involved. Bonus points if it costs nothing. Bring a journal. Be present. Take a picture for yourself if you want. Hey!

Ever found yourself stuck in a situation you didn’t plan for — one that felt like an inconvenience, but turned out to be a divine reset? In today’s episode, Tyra unpacks the quiet power of being still, letting go of control, and surrendering to what life is trying to teach you when everything feels off track. There’s wisdom waiting in the pause.This week’s Affirmation is: “I trust that every detour is a part of God’s divine direction.”3 Biggest Takeaways1. Stillness reveals what distraction hides. Being forced to pause allows us to finally hear what our spirit’s been trying to say beneath the noise.2. Detours are often divine redirections.Just because it wasn’t the original plan doesn’t mean it’s not the right path.3. Trust grows in the unknown. Surrendering control invites a deeper faith — one that doesn’t rely on certainty to feel grounded.ResourcesJoin the AFBG Book Club: https://tyrathecreative.myflodesk.com/xkz6bzvn29 Alexis’ ‘Feeling My Shelf’ Newsletter: https://www.feelingmyshelfnewsletter.com/ 50 side quests to do this year - https://we.tl/t-gmLxjREKx4  Listen to the For Life’s Rainy Day Playlist Wanna give therapy a try?

What if letting go isn’t the end—but the beginning of something softer, stronger, and more honest? In today’s Pep Talk, Tyra reflects on grief, healing, and the quiet courage it takes to receive love again—drawing inspiration from Before I Let Go by Kennedy Ryan. This one’s for anyone learning to make peace with what didn’t last… and still open up to what could.Pep Talk Challenge: Write a letter to a version of yourself that you’ve outgrown. Tell her thank you. Tell her you love her.

What do you think about the sentiment less is more? In this week’s episode Tyra explores the power of doing less — and how that intentional slowing down can lead to more clarity, creativity, and peace. We’ve been taught that rest is something we have to earn, but what if rest is actually the secret to becoming our fullest selves?Through personal stories, gentle reminders, and a few hard truths, Tyra invites you to rethink your relationship with rest and reimagine what productivity can look like when it's rooted in presence instead of pressure.This week’s affirmation is “I choose peace over pressure, and presence over perfection.”3 Biggest Takeaways from this episode:Rest is not a reward — it’s a right.Taking breaks can boost your creativity and productivity, not block it.If you’re not careful, constantly “doing” can cause you to miss the life you're actually living.ResourcesAlexis’ ‘Feeling My Shelf’ Newsletter: https://www.feelingmyshelfnewsletter.com/ 50 side quests to do this year - https://we.tl/t-gmLxjREKx4  Listen to the For Life’s Rainy Day Playlist Wanna give therapy a try?

Have you ever stopped to think about how you learned love — not through words, but through what you absorbed from the men who raised you? In today’s episode, Tyra explores how our early experiences with father figures — whether tender or tough — shaped our emotional language. Together, we unpack what it means to redefine love on your own terms and give yourself permission to want softness, consistency, and presence.This week’s Affirmation is: “I deserve softness — in how I speak to myself, how I love, and how I’m loved in return.”3 Biggest TakeawaysLove is often absorbed, not taught — and that impacts how we show up emotionally.You’re allowed to crave love that feels emotionally safe, expressive, and affirming.Redefining love for yourself isn’t betrayal — it’s healing.Join The Refill Room: Our Exclusive Subscriber Only Hub https://app.redcircle.com/shows/84f884fe-819e-43b6-b877-ad8ad08f986e/exclusive-content Visit my Food Blog: www.TyrasTable.com ResourcesAlexis’ ‘Feeling My Shelf’ Newsletter: https://www.feelingmyshelfnewsletter.com/ 50 side quests to do this year - https://we.tl/t-gmLxjREKx4  Listen to the For Life’s Rainy Day Playlist Wanna give therapy a try?

In today’s episode, Tyra is pulling back the curtain on five life-check questions that you should ask yourself before jumping (back) into the dating world. From your relationship with money to your routines and future goals, this is the episode that’ll help you pause and really evaluate whether you’re ready for love—or just longing for a distraction. It’s real, it’s reflective, and a reminder that you're already worthy, with or without a partner.This week’s Affirmation is “ I choose love from overflow, not emptiness.”3 Biggest Takeaways:Dating from a place of self-abandonment leads to confusion, codependency, and settling for less than you deserve.Building a strong relationship with yourself — your money, body, routines, and goals — lays the foundation for real love.You don’t find yourself in a relationship. You bring yourself into it — whole, clear, and grounded.Try The Calm App https://rebrand.ly/21n4tre Try Class Pass (Get 20 Free Credits) https://classpass.com/refer/ENCD196T4 ResourcesAlexis’ ‘Feeling My Shelf’ Newsletter: https://www.feelingmyshelfnewsletter.com/ 50 side quests to do this year - https://we.tl/t-gmLxjREKx4  Listen to the For Life’s Rainy Day Playlist Wanna give therapy a try?

In today’s Pep Talk Wednesday, Tyra opens up about what it means to finally step out of survival mode and into a season of softness. For so long, life was about hustling, stretching every dollar, and just making it through the day. But now? There's space.

She’s walking slower, cooking more, laughing deeper — and realizing that this, too, is a form of success.If you’ve ever felt guilty for slowing down or unsure if you’re “doing enough,” this is your reminder: You’re not thriving because life is perfect — you’re thriving because you’re finally safe.Pep Talk Challenge: Write down some things your younger-you couldn’t even imagine having time or capacity for.

In today’s episode, Tyra shares how she turned her apartment into a cozy little coffee shop — just because. No big milestone, no birthday, just vibes. She dives into how hosting has become her love language, why choosing joy is an intentional act, and the importance of surrounding yourself with people who celebrate you for simply being.If you’ve ever felt like joy had to be earned or reserved for “special occasions,” this episode is your permission slip to celebrate life as it is. Because sometimes the most meaningful parties are the ones with no reason at all.This week’s Affirmation is “ Making room for joy will allow it to find me.”3 Biggest Takeaways:Hosting is an Unofficial Love LanguageEven though it's not one of the “official” five, hosting blends all of them — acts of service, quality time, words of affirmation, and physical touch — into one meaningful experience that shows love through presence, intention, and ambiance.Joy Doesn’t Need a Reason — Just RoomYou don’t have to wait for a birthday or achievement to celebrate. Making space for joy in your everyday life is an act of resistance, peace, and self-love. Light the candles. Set the vibe. You’re allowed.The Right Community Will Match Your EnergyWhen you're surrounded by people who truly see and love you, celebration becomes natural. You won’t have to perform or plan around perfection — they’ll show up for your joy just as you show up for theirs.ResourcesAlexis’ ‘Feeling My Shelf’ Newsletter: https://www.feelingmyshelfnewsletter.com/ 50 side quests to do this year - https://we.tl/t-gmLxjREKx4  Listen to the For Life’s Rainy Day Playlist Wanna give therapy a try?
