Welcome to season three of the Hey Gurlfraaand Podcast!! I wanted to give you a heads up of what to expect this season and give some tips to prepare for this healing journey.

We will be touching on father and mother wounds, childhood trauma, rejection, abandonment, abuse, church trauma, relationship trauma, toxic cycles and more!!!

In this season we are healing, setting boundaries, and embracing the new “us” that comes with it.

Tune in for authentic, raw conversations that will inspire and motivate you to break through limitations and nurture your "healing girl era." Let’s goooooo!!!!

Dear Entrepreneur...this is not the time to fall back, LEAD THE CHARGE!!

It's getting crazy out here in these streets yal!! Inflation is crazy, the housing market is crazy (for buyers and renters), mass layoffs is crazy, being in a recession is crazy (whats more crazy is the denial of being in a recession)...these things can shake people up!!

But not you, when others are scaling back...we are leading the charge. We are assessing the world and the area we can make an impact...we are shifting...we are pivoting...we are expanding our tents by thinking bigger, dreaming bigger, and we are going full force in that direction!! Listen to this episode to be encouraged in your endeavors!!

We are starting a directory for entrepreneurs, solo-preneurs, mom-preneurs, christian-preneurs, mom & pop shops etc. This will cost you nothing!! We just want a place where we can "gather" and support each other in our business ventures. If you are interested in having your business listed in this directory, please email all of your business information to hello@melissabaez.com.

As always, I am also offering a FREE Breaking Ground Consultation for either my business coaching or life-mindset coaching. You can schedule that at www.melissabaez.com under Let's Talk.

Hey Gurlfraaand!! Thank you for tuning in to another episode of the podcast!! On today's episode I talk about how you need to take your seat and go!!

Hey Gurlfraaand!! Welp the holidays are here and that can sometimes mean toxicity is in the air. We often hear about how stressful the holidays can be because of all the spending and feeling the obligation to meet expectations when it comes to gifts. But I wanted to focus on the stresses of having to be around toxic people or in toxic environments.

So here is a little survival guide...more of a reminder of what you probably already know, I'm just here to back you up and stand in agreement with you!!

I want to wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas full of joy and the warmth that love brings. Make sure you get some type of rest this holiday...we have been running strong.

P.s.

I am starting a book study in January and I hope that you will join me!! Check out Jennie Allen's book "Find Your People: Building Deep Community in a Lonely World." We were not meant to do life alone...let's be intentional about building a healthy community around us. Join me for the study!! Got questions? Email me at melissahgp@gmail.com.
