Thank you so much for listening! I give a little background on why y'all ain't heard from me last week *insert eyes emoji*. In this one, I talk about some of the mindset shifts I've been struggling with and how I kept asking God for the same things without putting in enough work to show that I'm ready for and actually want those things. I also mention how I'm struggling to reconcile my feelings of being behind or taking a step backward which leaves me feeling ashamed/embarrassed. For no real reason, I know, but bear with me here... I'm tryna keep it real with y'all. 

This episode was heavily inspired by one of my sheroes, AJ Johnson. I reference an Instagram video she did where she talks about begging God. If you wanted to see her video (trust me, you want to) here it is:  Do you repeat prayers?

Thank you so much for listening! I've been stuck in a rut and in this episode, I'm letting y'all know what I'm doing to get out of it. I've been in a very heavy Linkin Park mood and was stuck between a few songs when titling this episode. I picked Breaking the Habit because my ruts usually lead me to create a ton of new bad habits that negatively impact my emotional and physical health. Let's do better together and create some new habits.

Thank you so much for listening! This episode is about being less reactionary, packing up Petty Patty and Shadow Kermit, and how to get less triggered to clapback all the time.

Thank you so much for listening! This episode is all about the different kinds of leveling up: the level up, glow up, and boss up.

Thank you so much for listening and for a great year! While this song has nothing to do with the episode, it perfectly describes the year that is 2021, water under the bridge. We’ve learned, we’ve grown, we’re on to bigger and better things in this new year. Cheers to 2022!

Thank you so much for listening! It's a long awaited episode where I talk about meditation. Think of this as the first episode in a minitation series (mini mediation episodes). This is the one where I tell you the three things I learned after a few years of self-taught/app-guided meditation that I wish I knew as a beginner. Hopefully this inspires you to give meditation a try and not overthink it! I promise you once you just let go, it's like a walk in the park :-)

Thank you so much for listening! Y'all, ya girl is going through it so this episode is all about accountability for what I'm going through. If you have something to say that's not about me (i.e. about whom you speculate this might be about), keep it to yourself because we might have to fight lol. I'm nowhere near perfect and this episode was much more of a release for me so I don't carry this sh*t into the future. While I hope things can be resolved, I think I'm in a good enough space to be okay whatever the outcome is. Regardless, pray for ya girl 💜
