Life, and the people in it, can sometimes tear you down. In today's episode, I will be talking about how you can CLIMB BACK.

Ain't no more handouts, B! There comes a time in your life when you wake up and realize that you are not in Kansas anymore. New responsibilities are being thrown at you left and right, and it may SEEM overwhelming, but you got it! Each and every experience you've had so far has prepared you for the moment when you're tested. NO! There will not always be someone to pass your burden onto. NO!

All You Gotta Do Is Say YES

March 02, 2022 22:00 - 22 minutes - 30.4 MB

It is easy to say, "Yes", when all of the stars are aligned, but sometimes you need to still say, "Yes", when you're afraid! Stepping into new opportunities is an amazing feeling, but can often be uncomfortable. How do you know when it's the right time? Is this a terrible mistake I'm making? It's natural to leave room in your head for doubt, but there is always a way to flush that doubt OUT! If you can remind yourself of how amazing you are and what great qualities you have to offer, you wil...

Drop The GPS

February 16, 2022 22:00 - 27 minutes - 38.2 MB

Navigating life without a GPS can be difficult, but what makes it easy is trusting your instincts. What you'll learn is that it is easy to go to others for advice, but there's no better person to trust in than yourself. Once you begin to fall back on your own knowledge and life experiences, you will take yourself farther than you could have ever imagined. I hope that one day you realize that the best person for you to bet on is YOU! Follow me: Instagram Twitter The episode Drop The GPS a...

Know the Difference Between the Two

February 11, 2022 19:58 - 20 minutes - 28.1 MB

From the Book of Ester to the Kim Ks of Instagram, we are tapping into all things Influencer. A series of events and discussions this past week have truly opened my eyes to the difference between those who have the power to influence others and people who are simply popular. We can all fall victim to the desire to have star power, but not know what to do with it. And on the other hand, we can feel the excessive need to live like those who we consider #GOALS, when in facts, those people aren'...

Don't Get Got

January 12, 2022 23:44 - 23 minutes - 32.8 MB

Since moving to LA, I have experienced meeting a plethora of people, all uniquely created. Some are good, others are bad. I do love all of God's children but there are definitely some people to be weary of because their intentions may not be pure. If I can say one thing, it's to pay close attention to people's action when you're venturing off to a new space. When you become used to a certain way of life and/or demographic of people, moving can be a culture shock and can take some getting use...

Are You Choosing to be the Tortoise or the Hare?

November 17, 2021 13:14 - 9 minutes - 13.5 MB

It is so easy to get ahead of ourselves, especially when we are excited for something bigger or anxious about what is next. When we feel like we’re not progressing fast enough, or not doing as good as we think we should be doing – we find ourselves "wishing we could finish already”! But wishing we had it all together now, or believing in this false sense of skipping steps to get ahead can do more harm than good. There is no destination we arrive to in life that doesn't require patience and p...
