“Imagine meeting someone who wants to learn your past not to punish you but to understand how you need to be loved”.

– Unknown

As I re-enter the world of dating I have been self-coaching on how I feel about this process. I find myself pondering the thought of how we show up to a date with the intention to actually get to know the other person and determine if there is a connection. I’ve also been thinking about why we do this.

The goal of dating is usually to find a partner, someone who you can grow to become intimate with. True intimacy happens when both people feel safe enough to be vulnerable. There is support for each other’s weaknesses and celebration of each other’s strengths.

The couple has agreed on a definition of fidelity and both feel secure that the other will not violate that understanding. This then led me to think about what it would be like if we learned to find true intimacy with ourselves. Are you intimate with yourself? Are you safe with you? How well do you know you?

Queen, we don’t know ourselves enough to understand how we need to love ourselves. No, we understand ourselves, to punish ourselves. It is time to change this dynamic.

This is the work that I specialize in. If you need help improving that core relationship with yourself, I invite you to book a breakthrough call with me to learn how to increase your intimacy with yourself.

EP. 122 Redefining GOODT ENUFF

In this week’s conversation, I’m expanding on the discussion started in last week’s episode, EP. 121 Bad Things Happen To Good Girls, around the good girl syndrome. Last week I shared that we think if we are living by the standard of the good girl, then the good girl doesn’t have problems, and so we believe having a problem is a problem, but it’s not.

EP. 121 Bad Things Happen To Good Girls

From childhood, many women are socialized to please others, at the cost of their own well-being or needs. The world is screaming: If you’re good, nothing bad will happen to you. And so we adopt the idea that good girls don’t upset people, good girls don’t put herself first, good girls don’t disappoint others.

EP. 117 Are you STRESS Aware?

Stress is everywhere; it impacts everyone and pervades all aspects of our lives. And over time it can negatively impact your health and well-being. How you manage stress is related to your thoughts about yourself, your relationship with yourself, your relationship with others, your relationship with your work, and your relationship with your epic sh*t.

EP. 116 Come Fail With Me! My Challenge To You

I know it is the eve of Valentine’s Day, but guess what? I won’t be talking about love in this episode. Instead, I want to continue the conversation around failure because I want us as black women to drop the mask, do our epic sh*t, and embrace failure along the journey.
