Inspiring Women Weekly

So you wanna be a baller, shot caller…but you can’t quite seem to get there.  Why is that?  Well, there may be a number of legitimate things or reasons why you haven’t reached your goal…but what if the number one reason you haven’t reached success is YOU!  Yes, you.  Are you the main reason you aren’t there yet (wherever there is for you)?  Listen, believe it or not, many of you are blocking your...

This past week was one for the books!  Many of you are practicing social distancing or even being self-quarantine, and there are some mixed feelings about it.  While I hope that you are enjoying some extra time at home with your family and friends and that you are getting some time to practice self care, I do know that there is a lot of fear floating around due to the uncertainty of the times.  An...

So since we last spoke soooo much has happened and changed and these major changes have many of you feeling a frenzy of emotions.  Some of you are worried, afraid, uncertain, and even some of you are unbothered, lol.  I get it.  Many of us are experiencing something that we’ve never experienced or even thought of before.  Do I have enough food and toilet paper, how long will this last, are my gran...

So last week we talked about failure and how it’s really not as bad as it seems. I recently heard someone say that they’ve failed more than they’d succeeded and it’s in those failures that they learned the most. So now that we know that failure isn’t the enemy I want to talk about another thing that gets a bad wrap as well and that is quitting. There is a perception that being a quitter is a bad t...

Today, I want to talk to you about an integral component of success.  No, not consistency.  No, not discipline.  No, not even hard work.  I’m talking about the oh so important…failure.  Like it or not, failure is something you will likely experience on your journey toward success.  But I feel like failure gets a bad wrap.  It has become something that people fear and ultimately can stop them in th...

This year for black history month my family and I did things a little differently.  Instead of focusing on the achievements of African Americans in society, we focused on teaching our kids their family history.  For the last few years, my husband has been working fervently on our family tree and we’ve been able to teach our kids some very important information about whom they come from.  Learning...

Your alarm clock goes off and it’s time to start another day, another week, another opportunity to be great.  But let me ask, are you making the best of your morning?  After waking up do you take the opportunity to set yourself up for the best possible day or are you rushing around, feeling cranky to see another day?  Well, if you are the latter, this episode is just for you!  By doing a few simpl...

FOMO, or the fear of missing out, may sound like just another silly acronym, but, in actuality, it is wrecking havoc on many people’s lives.  People are choosing what to do, where to go, what to try, and what to be apart of, not because they actually want to do these things, but because of the fear that if they don’t do these things, they’ll miss out on something important.  When you make decision...

So, I’m recording this episode right after learning about the passing of the greatest, Kobe Bryant.  I am physically shaken and devastated by the passing of Kobe and his daughter.  If you’ve listened to this podcast then you know that Kobe is my all time favorite athlete, not just basketball player, but athlete.  He is my favorite, not just because of his greatness and competitiveness on the court...

So by now I’m sure that you have your vision for this year set, you’ve made your plan and you been working hard on executing it. And while I know that your hard work is going to pay off this year, I want to make sure that you put some healthy habits in place so that you don’t burnout before the year is up. See, even though you may love what you do and you feel passionate about it, if you aren’t in...

This week is the week of Christmas…one of the most cherished holidays of the year.  During this time of year most people are a little nicer, everyone is giving, there is some extra love in the air, and people are kinder.  During this holiday season people are going out of their way to do more, give more, and love more.  So, that got me to thinking…why do we wait until this time of year to be this...

2020 is upon us and everywhere I turn ppl are talking about what they learned or experienced these last 10 years. So I said, why not, I’ll jump on the bandwagon too and talk about a few things I leaned over these 10 years. So much has happened since 2010 came in and I’m definitely not the same person I was 10 years ago. So much about me has changed, so much has happened, some expected and some une...

So, if you’ve been living long enough, you now know that life happens in ebbs and flows.  We can have some really high highs and, unfortunately, we can have some really low lows.  On this podcast, we talk a lot about positivity and gratitude but believe me, I’m not oblivious to the fact that sometimes, life is just hard.  Sometimes things happen or situations occur, that cause people to feel hurt,...

Thanksgiving is quickly approaching so it’s only right that I take the time in today’s episode to talk about gratitude. I have been known to go on and on about the importance of gratitude and how it can change your perspective on life. In last weeks episode, you learned that the struggle is not real. So since you have been enlightened you can now have a clear perspective on life and I’m sure, with...

Have you ever had something that you needed to do, big or small, and you just couldn’t get the motivation, the strength, the energy to get it done? In that moment you felt like saying “the struggle is real.” And you even believe that in that moment. But what if I told you that the struggle you’re dealing with, it’s really real? It isn’t really an issue...you’re making it into on? Well if you’re un...

This is the time of year where everyone is in a rush to get things accomplished.  So many of us have set a deadline of December 31st as the day when all must be right in our world.  So what do we do, we cram in as many goals as we can in this short about of time so that we can feel accomplished.  Now, while that sounds good…it typically leads to unnecessary pressure, comparison, anxiety, and more...

Welcome to the most wonderful time of the year!! It’s November, and during this time of year, I get all giddy.  These last two months of the year are so action-packed with holidays and celebrations and I just love it.  But with all this love and joy there is one thing that I absolutely despise and hate about this time of year and that is the end of daylight savings time.  Now this one hour change...

I get it, I feel you, but in today's episode I want to provide s...

As much as we would love to have an accountability partner one isn’t always available and sometimes the partner you have needs help with accountability themselves.
