Hey family! Today's episode is all about choosing yourself! We have all been sooooo busy and focused on getting our lives "back to normal," but through all that, it's important to choose yourself at the end of the day. Today I discuss 4 ways you can choose yourself and hope that you pick one or more of these options to help you relax this weekend! Enjoy!
Hey family! We're back and better with a new post date! Today's episode is all about the importance of self-talk. I discuss how positive self talk is VITAL for inner peace, how to monitor your inner critic, and some measurable results from external talk i.e. talking to yourself. Head over to @latmpod to let me know what you think!
Hey guys! As promised I recorded a bonus episode explaining my hiatus and what my intentions for this break are. Again, I thank y'all so much for coming along with me on this journey this far; and helping me grow bigger than I imagined. Thank you for your listens, donations, and shares, it has meant the world to me. I will be back soon enough! Keep the Family in your thoughts as we break, and make sure you stay safe! I love y'all!
Hey, family! I am super excited to finally release this episode today! I interviewed a young woman named Anissa Hyde for New Orleans, La, about her love for conservation, how she's trailblazing for other future Black environmentalists in the South and much more! This has been one of my favorite episodes of the season because I challenged myself as a writer and an editor, but also because I get to share another one of my passions with y'all through this dope interview. Let me know what you think about it @latmpod on Instagram!
Hey family! I hope y'all have had a great week so far. Today I wanna talk about the things I learned on my journey to true friendship. Friendships are just as important as romantic relationships or the one you have with yourself. Pour into them + hold your people accountable, and watch your circle thrive.
Hey, family! I hope y'all are having a great Friday! Today's episode is about how we need to add more context to our parents' lives to truly understand them. They had lives, burdens, and trauma well before you were born. Like I mention in the episode, I do not condone any babd bahavior or abuse from parents to their children, quite the opposite. But I have found that de-centering myself from their actions and parenting choices, has helped me see they have just as much going on as I do (sometimes with half the resources). I hope you get meaningful conversations from this episode. Please let me know what you think!
Hey, family! I hope y'all had a great week! For today's episode, I talk about three things I think the eldest daughter in a Black household should unlearn to gain her liberation and life back. All older siblings bear the brunt of having to protect their siblings, but there is an added pressure put on young Black girls. I hope y'all enjoy! My call to action is this: 1. Stop taking on responsibilities that don't belong to you. 2. Stop trying to prevent every little bad thing from happening in life. 3. Stop apologizing when it's not necessary.

Do you ever get sad when the rain clouds come in or when things really aren't going your way? Maybe it's time to realize that you have less control than you think you do and let go. Today's episode is all about the art of letting things flow around and through you. I want you to take this time to bask in the fullness of life, love on yourself, and allow the rain to pass (bc you probably needed it.) Also, check the mindfulness session at the end. I hope y'all are staying safe out there, love you Beat: Haven't Been by Mo Lamar

Today's Get It How You Live Monday is all about our houses, siblings! I was chatting with @mccaalaolivia about life a few weeks? ago, and she mentioned this "house" analogy in reference to our personal lives/spaces, and I thought it would be dope to expand on the good sister's words for a bit. Whip out those journals and let's get into these houses, babes (no HGTV). Beat: Nu by Mo Lamar
