That's it, that's the episode! 4 simple words that feel like FREEDOM! Tap in.

It's my favorite time of the year, it's Spring! The time where we get to shed layers, clean up a bit, and get rid of things we no longer need. But...are we doing the same internally? Let's discuss.

It’s been a minute. (2 months to be exact!) And not just a little minute… like… a real pause. A real step back.  And I’ve gone back and forth so many times about how I wanted to come back on this mic… what I wanted to say… how much I wanted to share. But if I am being honest....I only had silence to share. Just listen.

Hope you all are off to a GREAT 2026! I wanted to revisit why I am here and why you are listening to my voice. To my loyal followers who listen regularly and always give me feedback. THANK YOU AND I LOVE YOU!! Please stay with me and keep listening.

Something been feeling off lately? Does this person seem to have a "representative" that doesn't seem genuine? Sis, he's probably a master manipulator! Listen, it can be hard to spot in the beginning but if you lived through it, you know! Don't fall for the banana in the tailpipe. LOL. You've been warned! Here are a few signs.

This episode touches on how to recognize when your friendship has become unbalanced or you have simply outgrown a friend. There are always signs. Pay attention babes! Drop a comment if you have experienced this before!

I have a love/hate relationship with the month of December. It has always felt so fake and forced. It is supposed to be a time for joy but for the longest time it has been a time of grief and reminders of those who are no longer here. My birthday is 12/20 so be sure to give a shoutout in the comments! Happy December!

I have come to understand that people say the STRANGEST things when it comes to grief. It's actually pretty odd. They either do not know how to show up or just make the conversation extremely awkward. Here are a few things I compiled of what I wished friends/family would've said to me at the beginning of my grief journey. I hope this helps someone who is grieving or helps someone who is ac...

I don't know about ya'll but I have dated some CHARACTERS in my lifetime. LOL. But each character has taught me something....it taught me to love myself more! This is a review of (3) significant characters (exes) in my life but they all provided insight on what I needed and I helped transform me into the woman I am today. Thank you to my EX! :)

What does resilient mean? Resilient: A person/animal able to withstand or recover quickly from difficult conditions. (2) Able to recoil or spring back into shape after bending, stretching or being compressed. OR are we just numb?

It really shouldn't be hard to communicate this, but honestly it can be. I have complied a list of "politically correct" ways to tell someone you are not compatible without being mean. LOL. Sigh.

How many of us have dealt with this being black/brown in the workplace? I guarantee we all have a story or a time we can remember it happening. I want to talk about how that played out in my workplace. Let's talk about it! Microaggression - are those small, everyday slights — verbal or nonverbal — that communicate hostility, bias, or disrespect toward marginalized groups. They’re often so subt...

Guess who's back? I know its been literally a little over a year, but I am still here! Transforming a little bit. I want to check in!

What is a "gatekeeper?" It's a person or group that controls access to something. Gatekeepers are those individuals or groups who decide who gets access to resources, opportunities and information. I wanted to to talk about gatekeepers and how they harm or can try to hold you back in your career or family unit. These are the individuals that intentionally withhold information, job op...

This topic is so huge so I had to make this episode in two parts! Sheesh. Part II discusses oversharing on social media, work and with friends and how it can actually hurt you. Let me know your thoughts or anything I should've added!

Did you know that oversharing is actually a trauma response? Yeah, neither did I. Let's talk about it. I might even make this episode in to two parts because it is SO much to unpack here!

It's my favorite time of year again, Spring! I have a habit of cleaning ALL the time but this time it hits different. It's time to spring clean...get in there and get rid of the things you don't have use for anymore. That is the essence of spring time. Have you cleaned your "home" yet?

Goodbye doesn't always have to be associated with bad. The word "goodbye" was used in the 16th century to bid a person farewell and meant "God be with ye." Finding that saying "goodbye" is actually a positive thing when prioritizing your life and learning invaluable lessons.

People Pleaser: a person who consistently strives to please others, often sacrificing their own wants or needs in the process. Are you or were you a people pleaser? I definitely was my entire childhood and adult life. I was shy, timid and afraid of disappointing others if they could not depend on me. As I reflect on the old me, I explore where I am at now in my journey now.

How many distractions do you have? TONS! We are discussing helpful ways to block out those distractions to continue on your successful journey of personal growth and healing.

I discuss a few ways to challenge and handle the road to balance according to Psychology Today. Let's chat! If you liked this episode, please leave me a comment! I love reading your comments and thoughts and ideas for next episodes.

Let's face it, we all have toxic family and friends. It's disappointing when their toxic behaviors can show up at the most inappropriate and hard times in your life. I found some helpful tips while reading a self- help journal from Psychology Today. Let's talk about it.
