In this episode, I will go through some exercises to help you get over been misunderstood and ease the tension it can cause internally and externally.

Is your past blemish-free? When you think about your past do you get that warm fuzzy feeling each time? Well, news flash we all have a past and some things we have done or said we aren't proud of, but what we do have is the fact that our past does not depict or control our future. Things do not just happen to us but it happens for us to learn and grow mentally, emotionally, and physically. Hence w...

When was the last time you had some good ole quiet time for yourself? Distraction-free...no TV, no kids, no spouse, no pets, etc. You were just able to take in the stillness and you can actually hear yourself think and speak. If not, I suggest you try it and see how you feel. You can have time to check in with your inner self, converse with your Heavenly Father (spiritual side), get inspiration, g...

Have you given yourself credit lately? Sometimes we can be so hard on ourselves because we may be striving to prove a point, get fame, compare ourselves to others by doing things to please those who may not even matter 1 year, 5 years, or 10 years for now. So I want you to take time to celebrate your wins whether big or small because you deserve to give yourself credit for your success and all the...

Do you hate when people constantly try to micromanage you? How does it make you feel? It's like you can't even breathe because someone/they are constantly breathing down your neck, looking over your shoulder, sending multiple reminders back to back, etc. Is it just me or have you experienced this before? Please share your experiences with me at GenesisAmarisKemp@gmail.com I want to have a dialogue...

Have you ever heard the saying blood is thicker than water? If not, it means that your family comes first before outsiders meaning your friends, etc. In my opinion, sometimes you have to distance yourself from your family if they are constantly putting you down whether it's mentally, emotionally, or physically. They make you feel as if you are the black sheep in the family like you don't matter, o...

When you hear the word NO what comes to mind? It can be seen as a form of discouragement, you may feel disappointed, see it as a negative, or you may want to challenge it. Well, what if you flipped the script and say that NO as New Opening or Next Opportunity and allowed it to work in your favor. You take that NO and you see it as a way to accelerate you to something better or you remain open-mind...

Are you in a good headspace? Have you ever heard the saying that says your mind is a POWERFUL thing to waste. If you do not shift your mindset to thoughts that are building you up mentally, physically, and emotionally then you are going to be in a state of the constant battlefield. Trying to fight a mental war internally and outwardly is going to reflect the turmoil. So take a step back and analyz...

Since today is the National Day of Prayer I wanted to take the time to reflect a bit and say a short prayer. Prayer moves mountains and surely changes things. We are all going through something and we just need to remember that God will always be there no matter what. He is showering us with his grace, mercy, forgiveness, unconditional love, and always leading us down the right path. We just have...

If you have ever lost a loved one, a pet, a job, a relationship that didn't work out, etc then I am sure you have experienced some form of grief or remorse. We all have had those emotions that are associate with grief and it is challenging and no one can tell you how you should feel because we all carry and resonate with things differently. In my opinion, there is no right or wrong way to grieve a...

There is so much POWER when we share our stories. Storytelling is amazing because it helps us cope with the trials and tribulations we endured and how we are now experiencing victories, triumphs, appreciation, and the good aftermath. However, if we never go through those hard seasons would we appreciate where we are now? Think about those hard experiences and life circumstances you went through......

Are you treating your body as your temple? Make sure you practice that TLC, Tender Love and Care and feed your body mentally, physically, and emotionally. If you do not care for your body properly then how do you expect it to perform optimally. Loving yourself fully is loving and treating your body well. Be mindful of what you let in your ears, what you see, what you eat, etc. Plant fruitful seeds...

I challenge you to look beyond the surface, look past the title, don't get caught up in the esthetics, but really dig deep and turn that page. You will be surprised what you find out when you look past the superficial things. True GEMS are found when we allow ourselves to get past our comfort zone and take that leap of FAITH. We can unlock powerful things when we stop and analyze there is more tha...

Never stop learning and never stop growing. The knowledge that you acquire is yours and no one can take that away from you. If you are educating yourself daily then you are not growing. Personal development is key. I do not want you to get left behind because you got complacent and too comfortable that you felt the need to not continue learning. You should challenge yourself to learn daily whether...

Who do you see when you look in the mirror? Don't just look at the outward appearance but go deeper and look past the external factors. Who do you see internally? Are you pleased with the reflection you see? Sometimes we look at outward appearance when we need to go beyond the surface level and realize that we are a WIP...Work in Progress who is striving to be a better version of ourselves. To tha...

When was the last time you did a hard look at your inner circle? Who are you connected with and how do they make you feel? Is the relationship fruitful, are you able to have transparent conversations, how do they make you feel, do you feel like it's a beneficial connection where you are both learning and growing? Some people are with us for a season and others are there for a lifelong journey. Mak...

Have you ever felt like it was a job finding a job? Trying to find something you like only to find out that it wasnt a suitable fit, but you had responsibilities that needed to be fulfilled in the interim. Well, what if you took a different approach and you looked into creating your opportunity. Whether you become a 1099 Contractor, Consultant, Start an LLC, etc you begin to build your legacy and...

Are you looking for validation in all the wrong places? Are you constantly striving so hard for people to like and celebrate you? Striving so hard to gain monetary or tangible things to show that you are enough or it gives you a sense of entitlement. If so, it is time to take a step back and ask yourself why? You need to look for ways to personally develop and get a sense of WHO you are and why yo...

Are you so consumed with all the likes you get? Or Is it about the lives you are impacting? So many times we can get caught up in getting a bunch of likes, constantly checking if we get new followers, etc that we forget to truly make it about the lives that we are changing. It's easy to be swayed by the numbers but let's go a little deeper and make sure that the seeds we are planting today produce...

So many times people try to diminish a sin when it's theirs, but then they try to condemn someone else for their sin. When in reality sin is still sin no matter how big or small. We have all sinned at one point or another in our lives but we must remember that each one of us received grace, mercy, forgiveness, etc. So we must remember that when we try to metaphorically throw a stone at someone els...

It's time to flip the script. Instead of allowing closed doors to get you upset see it has something optimistic that is accelerating you to walk into endless possibilities. Closed doors redirect you to open skies because it allows you to tap into endless opportunities that come flooding in. After all, you are no longer stuck in a situation(s) that is causing you to have limited and conditioned bel...

When is the last time you spoke positively about yourself? Give yourself a pep talk and start speaking life into your situation and you. Declare and Decree your I AM Statements / Affirmations...Who do you say YOU are? Who do you want to be? How do you want others to perceive you? Be Uniquely You, Be Authentic, Be Transparent, Be Great...you are destined for greatness but you must BELIEVE in yourse...

Nothing to Prove is about taking ownership back from your critics, naysayers, haters, or anyone who has ever tried to place you in a box. Has anyone ever made you feel like you had to achieve something to prove them wrong or cause them to put their mouth where their money is? I want to remind you to stop trying to be in competition with one another and look for ways to complement each other. Be Un...
