The B.E.I.N.G. Podcast

Ok we are literally knocking on the door of Thanksgiving and Christmas will be here before we know it! As you are in preparation mode and remaining on ready for all the people, all the parties, and all the things I CHALLENGE you to really take some time for YOU! I spoke on this last week and as a busy wife, momma, employee, coach and on and on I am coming from what I know and not what I think. Joi...

This episode is especially for my busy ladies: moms, career women, caretakers and all who others are depending on. As we are knocking on the door of the holidays many of us are already beginning to make plans on meals, gifts, and all the in-between demands. I get it as a wife, momma bear, employee, employer, Life & Success Coach and all the other titles I hold. In that vain I personally have many...

There has been a lot of life happenings lately, but I wouldn’t trade them! Why? Because through it all I have the power, as do you, to decide how to react to them all. Of course none of us enjoys going through tough times, but coming out on the other side provides us with perspective, growth, and inner strength. I am forever grateful for this platform and for each of you joining me on the journey....

This week I bring you all into my world of grief as I’m approaching the second year of my daddy’s passing. Often when I share with others that I lost my parents 33 days apart, they are often shocked at how positive I remain and how I am able to move forward as I do. A close friend told me that I’m resilient…although we were talking about another topic it made me reflect on how I have handled losin...

Thanks for joining me this week as I talk about the importance of bending, but not breaking. In full transparency the last three weeks have been a lot, between work, celebrations, grief, and the list goes on and on…as it does for most of us. I love that I have been blessed by the many desires I prayed for, but at times it can be a lot. I often share with those I coach, teach, and mentor the very t...

Hey lady, yes you! The one wearing ALL the hats, doing ALL things, going to ALL the places, for ALL the people….except herself. Yes…YOU! Look I am not trying to call you out, I too am wearing those hats and yes even at times forgetting to do what I cover in this episode…remembering to Pour into our own vessels. It has taken me years to really grasp, accept and intentional practice pouring into mys...

My daddy used to say to me “babygirl, mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it won’t matter!” Of course he would use this little nugget on me when I was complaining or procrastinating…basically at the most inappropriate time for me! Lol. However, as with most things as we live more life, his words have definitely come up and actually helped me to P.U.S.H. through even when I may not “feel” like it....

What do you do when the prayers you have prayed are answered? When you have the spouse, kids, career, home, car, dog…all the things and you still don’t feel complete? What do you do when you find yourself feeling empty, yet when you look around you then feel guilty for feeling empty? I have lived through all of that and come out on the other side. Connecting back to my true self and answering my T...

There are times when many of us believe that we must “go it alone” when faced with decisions. Reasons vary, but between society, family, and of course the “reality” that’s on Social Media many find theme selves trying to figure things out in a vacuum alone… …or with the help of good ole Google. In this episode I still touch on the topic of Transitions, but dive into the importance of leaning into...

In this brand new episode I take some time to re-introduce myself and the purpose of doing this podcast; while also sharing a few events of the past week. As a serial Type-A personality I tend to operate from lists and processes and NOT in shades of gray. However, I have learned to operate more like bamboo…bending but not breaking. Allowing myself space to work from a place of flow. Even when face...

How often do you read something, see something, or hear something that not only makes you take inventory of where you are…but actually makes you WANT to get up and actually do something?! So you start formulating the way ahead in your mind and you may even “set” a goal. All is good, but then you start to doubt, question, or overthink the situation. You decide to put it off until tomorrow, or the f...

In this episode I take a moment to challenge us all to go back to the our own personal basics. Basics? Yes to the dreams, goals, desires, and passions we internally have that have yet to be fully realized. To make, and yes take, time to think over something we have possible neglected that is truly what we have been given as our own gifts and talents…our Purpose in this lifetime! Then to figure out...

I find it interesting how society, culture, family and friends try to hold onto taboos and pass them on as truths. How individuals will hold onto these “truths” to validate their feelings, words, and actions. No one is immune to life and the curve balls thrown from time to time. No one lives their life without trials, tests, temptations, and tribulations. We ALL have disappointments, whether from...

I am not quite sure how time continues to move SO fast, yet here we are another whole week since the last episode! As we all continue to adjust to “school” schedules and for my home that means a bit of a tighter routine. It’s funny though how those “tweaks” also lead to the opportunities to create the time we need to continue getting after our dreams, goals, and desires. My challenge to you all is...

This week I dive into thoughts I have had over the past week as I celebrated my momma’s 2nd Heavenly Birthday and only two days shy of celebrating the same for my daddy. I always say that I too am human, I am in this body/flesh and therefore, NOT immune to life’s happenings. Good, bad or indifferent. I continue to walk in the ways that I share with you all each week and this week I let you in on t...

Trust and believe that you are not on an island alone when it comes to life throwing obstacles, distractions, and hurdles at you. Can you relate to finally deciding what your dreams, goals and desires are. You have the roadmap and all the motivation pushing you to the finish line. All is going well, maybe too well, and then BAM out of what seems to be nowhere you are derailed!! My question to you...

Thank you for being flexible with me as I deal with technically difficulties! I have decided that it is time for me to refocus on my own dreams, goals, and desires…and create an actionable roadmap to get to them. To really take a hard look at what I want to accomplish by way of not only living the legacy of my parents, but in creating the one I want to leave for my three babies. I have been condit...

In this brand new, audio only, episode I get into my current place of being on the struggle bus. It took me about four good days to understand the root cause of my placement on the above mentioned bus. As we were into all things celebration of our newly three year old twins, the loss of my parents hit my subconscious and derailed my mood. Regardless if we are dealing with the loss of loved ones, r...

In this brand new episode I continue to talk about the importance of our investments and the returns we get from them. Daily we each make decisions that either lead us closer to our dreams, goals, and desires OR they keep us where we currently are. At worst…they set us back 😳 We are also still on celebration modes with just having the Fourth of July here in the states and I personally had a major...

Welcome to a new mini-sode of the B.E.I.N.G. Podcast! This week I wanted to discuss how each and every day is filled with decisions, choices and investments. Regardless of what you end up doing, you are making investments and will receive some sort of outcome! So with that, let’s dive into what you are doing and why? Let’s go a step further to look at HOW and WHAT you are personally investing in y...

Welcome to this week’s all new episode, number 22 of the season, which is my favorite number! In that vain I am talking all about the importance of taking time to celebrate your accomplishments. Often I think we often believe that we have to do something big in order to have it truly recognized and celebrated. I am here to challenge that sentiment and what you may believe. I encourage you to celeb...

Hey hey hey! A new week and a new episode. I wanted to slow down this week and address how we should address life throwing us curve balls and doesn’t go along with our plan. There are times when no matter the amount of planning we do, things or people are going to come our way that we did NOT invite into our space…yet we still have to react to it. In this episode I just want to encourage, remind,...

Ok ladies! I know, I know, I have been after you all this season to step into taking care of yourselves. To realize, receive and take action from the position of leaning into the use of self-care and self-love; because by taking care of yourself you will be better equipped to take care of everyone else. Of course I really challenged you to do this without feeling guilty or selfish! Well lady, this...

This past weekend was amazing! Not because we had a four-day weekend, but because I was able to witness my intelligent, beautiful, talented, sweet, incredible daughter compete in her first pageant. While she didn’t come home with the crown, she walked away with even more confidence and pride within herself that it was truly worth every sacrifice her daddy and I made, along with our amazing tribe o...

This week’s episode still finds me in celebration mode as we are fresh off the heels of my big girl’s Kindergarten graduation, her Spring dance recitals, and preparing for her first pageant. However, due to all of that I had a moment of wanting to ensure that I, AND YOU my amazing friend, slow down enough to do things for ourselves in the midst of consistently doing for everyone else. I know, peop...
