Select Page

I have a fun episode for you today!  I want to talk about being a grown a** woman.

If you’re a mother, you may have cultivated “the look” that you give to your kids that lets them know that the thing they are asking is not up for negotiation or whatever they are doing stops now. That signature look says that you’ve established intentional boundaries and remained consistent with enforcing them.

Guess what? We can do the same thing with our brains. When we find that we are not showing up for ourselves in a way that we want to, like we set a desire to do something, and then we don’t do it, its time to be a grown a** woman and set some boundaries with our brain so that when we make a commitment to ourselves to do something and life happens rather than allowing our brains give us all the reason why we can’t, we can give our brain “the look” that says the decision has been made, this is not a negotiation.

From there we will transition into curiosity mode and seek out a solution of how we can do the thing we committed to do. Listen in to learn how.

And if you are struggling with getting yourself to do what you say you want to do and want help with managing your brain so that you can stop telling yourself the same story and creating the same result over and over again, then join the waitlist for my group coaching program starting in March 2022.

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.
