Are you truly a good friend? Answer honestly. In this episode, Tyra dives into the complexities of friendship, how to evaluate your role, grow from evolving connections, and intentionally cultivate meaningful bonds.

439 | Done is Better Than Perfect | Your Obsession With Getting it Right the First Time is Holding You Back. Overcoming Fear, Perfectionism, and Self-Doubt.

Perfectionism isn’t productivity; it’s fear in disguise. In today’s episode, Tyra talks about releasing the pressure of getting everything right the first time and embracing progress over perfection. We break down the truth about perfectionism, how it’s often fear dressed up as productivity, discipline, or control, and explore how starting messy can unlock your next-level potential if you have a little audacity.This week’s Affirmation is: “I give myself permission to start messy & grow along the way.”3 Biggest TakeawaysPerfectionism is fear in disguise. It shows up dressed as productivity, discipline, control, or even “doing your best,” but underneath it’s really just fear: fear of failure, judgment, or not being enough. Recognizing that is the first step to freeing yourself.Done is better than perfect. Growth, learning, and creativity happen in the messy middle. The more you start, stumble, and iterate, the stronger and more confident you become. Waiting for perfection is the enemy of progress.Learning out loud builds resilience and connection. Sharing your imperfect journey, whether publicly or in a trusted space—helps you normalize trial and error, reframe mistakes as lessons, and create space for growth without letting fear hold you back.Community Connection LinksSign up for the Community Newsletter!: www.tyrathecreative.com/podcastJoin the AFBG Book Club: https://tyrathecreative.myflodesk.com/xkz6bzvn29 Shop the AFBG Merch!: http://tyrathecreative.com/merchLetters From Listeners Form: https://forms.gle/yqwdsBuRBjXQm9Xw7Subscriber Survey: https://forms.gle/m4AD2YaYbGhd8gEv6ResourcesShop Tyra’s Favorites: https://www.amazon.com/shop/tyrathecreativeHere’s a free trial of ClassPass (with 20 bonus credits!): https://shop.tyrathecreative.com/classpass Listen to Lofi Beats for Deep Focus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfBhamgkCww&t=2222s Wanna give therapy a try?

428 | Put Them on Mute: Protecting Your Peace in Group Chats & Social Spaces. You Don’t Owe Everyone Access to You

Not every message, notification, or invite deserves your immediate attention… or any attention at all. In this episode, Tyra dives into the art of setting digital boundaries, pushing back against the unspoken pressure to always be “on,” and recognizing when group dynamics or constant availability are draining instead of nourishing. If you’ve ever felt guilty for not responding fast enough or said “yes” just to avoid being the odd one out, this conversation will give you permission to prioritize your peace, honor your limits, and find balance between connection and self-preservation.This week’s Affirmation is: “I choose to be present without being overly accessible.”4 Biggest TakeawaysYou Don’t Owe Everyone Access to You or Your Time – Being constantly available isn’t the same as being dependable. Protecting your energy is an act of self-respect.Digital Boundaries Are Still Boundaries – Silence, delayed responses, or a polite “no” are valid ways of drawing the line, even in group chats and DMs.Choosing Rest During Moments of Social Overstimulation is Valid – Stepping back doesn’t make you antisocial; it makes you intentional about where and with whom you spend your energy.Community Doesn’t Require Overextension – True friends and healthy groups will respect your limits and not demand more than you can give.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?

This episode was very needed. This is my first return to podcasts after 3 years and this is the first episode that I've heard which are some things I've been dealing with but coming to terms with always putting God first and letting him lead. I have done so much for myself and others, and I deserve to relax, go at my own pace, and thank myself for getting as far as I've become already. thank you for this, and I am looking forward to listening to your previous episodes! 💐✨️

Thank you so much for sharing these beautiful affirmations! It's incredibly important to uplift and empower young Black girls, and these affirmations are a wonderful way to do just that. Growing up, I wish I had come across such positive messages that celebrate our uniqueness and strength. https://dribbble.com/Deli-Paper-Pros/about To all the Black girls reading this, remember that you are strong, you are resilient, and you are worthy of all the love and success that life has to offer. Your skin is radiant, your voice is powerful, and your dreams are valid. No matter the challenges you face, know that you have a community that believes in you and supports you every step of the way. https://www.malakye.com/profile/798652/deli-paper-pros

Thank you for this episode. I'm generally at peace but this week has been discomfort but then I found you. I am at peace in my discomfort.
