They Didn't Tell You

It's been a minute since we last connected but I'm happy to be back. This weeks topic is all about preparing yourself to the very things that you've been putting off. It's going to serve as a gentle reminder that you are capable of doing whatever it is that you set your mind to. It's time for you to take action!

This week I'm talking about my rebranding journey and sharing some of the ways I've had to get myself together.

I haven't always had an easy time forgiving others. I would think that I was over a situation and boom, I'd get triggered and I'm disappointed all over again. After finding out (first-hand) what it feels like to not to be truly forgiven, I decided to make a change. Forgiveness has created a lot of room for me to stretch and grow. I hope it does the same for you.

Ahhh!! My first full podcast episode is finally here!!! I can't begin to tell you how gewd it feels to be back! I feel like things are starting to make sense again and the peace and order I've been craving, has finally returned. We're playing catch up this week and I'm filling you in on some of the key lessons I learned during my time away. I'm looking forward to hearing what you think about it.

With an almost 2-year long hiatus, I'm ready to come out of my cocoon now 🦋.

I brought my girl Jells (@jellsonpurpose) back on the podcast to close out Women's HERstory month with me. I have been wanting to have a conversation on 'Real One's' for a minute now. So, we're going to talk about this term of endearment and how it applies in our lives.  This week's song of the week is No Love by Summer Walker feat. SZA!  Season 3 Playlist on Apple & Spotify!

I was hanging with my grandma one day and she spoke these words to me, "Whatever You're Doing, Is The Right Thing!".  I've carried those words with me for nearly two years. I didn't always feel like I was doing the right thing all the time, let alone when she said it.  Join me this week for a conversation on what the 'right thing' is and how we can move differently to get there.  Hoodie Season is back!
