Sentiments 2 Self

Being that The Career Maven was created to help women find their voice within their career, I thought it would be amazing to speak with Adrianna about women who find themselves spreading themselves too thin. I call this the "Multifaceted Woman;" the woman that has a million great ideas, but can't execute on even one of those ideas.  Sometimes we as women have ideas and we never get one accomplishe...

Welcome back to Sentiments 2 Self’s podcast, A Much Needed Conversation. This season please join me in welcoming Sameerah Rice, who prefers to be called “Meme,” as the new co-host. She is a recent HBCU college grad, From Alabama A&M, but age means nothing when it comes to this girl’s wisdom. This episode is all about laying out our true intentions when it comes to women and our podcasting journey....

For the month of  May, I spent my time learning as much as I could about wellness and how to correctly take care of my body. I learned so much that I now feel like it’s time for me to pay it forward! I want all women reading/listening to this episode to join my 30-Day June Wellness Reboot. This reboot is about focusing on what you want to change or improve about self, then challenging yoursel...

I think working out, drinking water, staying active, and living a healthier lifestyle sounds and looks good, but it’s not really what people want to do. I am so over the cute pics in workout clothes with zero sweat being displayed. I find it crazy how society promotes these really nice and curvy bodies, but propose no real “how to.” Whether you have a nice body by working out, hitting the table, o...

Chelsea Nizana joined me for a much needed topic this week. We discussed the woman being multifaceted and how society has a hard time accepting that. I have found that it is not as easy for a woman to expand her portfolio in the way in which a man can. It’s a fact that men don’t have to deal with the pressures of society, as far as having a family and a career. I see a lot of the times how women w...

For years, all I’ve heard is that yoga and meditation are the keys to unlocking a complete shift in mindset, of course for the good. Not to say I doubted it, I simply felt like it wasn’t for me. I didn’t feel like sitting in the same position for 15-45 minutes at a time would contribute anything to my ultimate goal, which is getting money and acquiring success. My thought process was that I needed...

For this week’s conversation, Chanel Douglas of The Coco’s Jewelry Collection joined, and we had a very uplifting and informative IG Live. The plan was to go live via Instagram and Facebook, and although I didn't make it to Facebook, the conversation was greater than I could have ever imagined. Chanel and I literally met through social media and automatically connected. Chanel and close friend Amb...

This week’s episode was all about diving into why I went on Steve Harvey’s new Facebook Watch Series, asking a question, during the infamous “Hey Steve” segment, about marriage. During my time on set, Mr. Harvey interviewed Quality Control executives Pee Thomas and Coach K. These serial entrepreneurs are linked to music moguls such as The Migos, Lil Yatchy, The City Girls, and their company now ma...

Episode 7 was done a lot differently than other episodes. For this episode, I decided to go LIVE via my Instagram, because with the Coronavirus crisis, it’s been hard to have in-person conversations. Therefore, I decided to not only have one conversation, but I had a community conversation with women that probably have never even listened to my podcast, A Much Needed Conversation. This was an amaz...

Every month, I share a sentiment with you via the podcast, where I am not having a conversation with anyone, but talking straight to you!  For the month of April, I felt it was only right that the sentiment have everything to do with YOU!  After planning the relationship series, I realized that I had overlooked this one particular relationship in my life, and it dawned on me that this wa...

The second episode for the Relationship Series is now live! Alexis Nord joins me for a conversation as we discuss the woman and her relationship with female friends. We didn’t want to make this a conversation about our meaning of friendship or put a heavy opinion on anything, because friendships mean different things to different people. Therefore, Alexis and I discussed adversities amongst friend...

This conversation kicked off “The Relationship Series," and I truly wanted this conversation to be light, because I believe that people always add stress and added expectations on relationships, which make them heavy conversations. Therefore, I started with the topic of dating. Although this can be a heavy topic, essentially, I see it as a learning process, which means you receive valuable things...

Normally I am having conversations with others in order to bring light to issues and situations that our community as a whole should be talking about, for the purposes of unity and growth. However, sometimes it’s just as important to sit back and reflect on your own actions and situations; therefore, you are able to identify areas where growth or nurturing of some sort is needed. That very thought...

This first episode is all about how lack of confidence effects our relationships. Morgan Evans and I conduct a conversation all about the importance of confidence and why every woman has to possess confidence.
