Vitamin D with Dawn Dai

I'm here to remind you that whatever you want out of life, you can have it. I just need you to claim it. Right here. Right now. Now, this is nothing new. If you're a believer of the scripture you may have heard once or twice that, "Ask and you shall receive. Seek and you shall find. Knock and the door will be opened unto you." That's Matthew 7:7. Now, why should that be any different when it comes...

They say joy comes in the morning. What does your joy look like? Can you claim glory? Look, they say, "bad times don't last always, but good people do." Are you claiming your glory? I was listening to this track by Common entitled "Glory" and in it he says, "Hands to the Heavens, no man, no weapon. Formed against, yes glory is destined." There's confidence in knowing. You have to know what it is t...

Have you ever been in a love triangle willingly or unwillingly?

Seasons. Just like we have seasons in nature we have "seasons" with our lives. What season are you in? Are you in a planting season? Are you in a sowing season? Are you in a reaping season? What season is it? Don't tell me. That's for you to figure out, because I want you to think of that whenever you look around and do an evaluation of your life. Wondering, are you where you're supposed to be or...

Do you have self-love? Now, listen, don't tell me this. This is for you to think about. And I have to ask you this, because we are so quick to say how much we love this car, how much we love this house, these clothes, this makeup... this animal. But how many times are we ready to profess the love that we have for ourselves? And more importantly, what does it look like? Or rather, what does it feel...

You can't fail if you don't quit. Dawn reminisces on the experiences she has been blessed with that have gotten her to be the host of Front Page on 102.3 KJLH in Los Angeles, California. Dive in as she speaks on how “you can’t fail if you don’t quit.” She is proof that anything is possible when you don't give up and that you need to walk in the authority of who you say that you are long before peo...

How are you spending the days of your life? Are they adding up to something of significance? If not, why are you doing it? Day in and day out we’ve created this false notion that "functioning" is living. Let’s be clear, things function and it is people that live. Knock, knock. Your wake-up call is here. Understand that this isn’t a dress rehearsal, this is life. Your life. I need you present each...

Life is filled with many distractions, but we must keep our eyes on the prize. Understand that distractions only bring about temporary satisfaction. Working at a job you despise for 10 years because you were told you would a receive $30,000 bonus? Distraction. Staying in an abusive relationship because of the "comfort" of not feeling alone? Distraction. Or how about taking one more hit of that dru...

They say “you don’t know what you have until it’s gone.” Dawn talks the importance of gratitude and what it looks like. Find out what Dawn has to say about no longer having her car and taking the Los Angeles Metro, the conversations she’s had with those experiencing homelessness and how we’re all one decision away from a completely different life.

The common misconception about a winner is that they never lose. A winner does lose, but each time they “lose” they see it as an opportunity to win again. I want you to win, but in order to win you must never give up. You have to go hard for what you want. As they say, “you gotta go hard in the paint.” When you go hard your "nays" will become "yays." In the hit single, “Fly,”  Rihanna belts, “I ca...

Fear is false evidence appearing real. It is the very state that paralyzes us. It strips us from our ability to move. It causes us to get "stuck." Stuck in the sense that it inhibits us from reaching our true potential. Learn to appreciate fear. Fear will guide you in the direction in where you need to grow. We’ve been conditioned to rebuke fear, however, I encourage you to run through fear and su...

Are you living the life you deserve? If not, why? You do understand that every day you wake up you either make the choice to live life on purpose and for a purpose or you don’t. Either you can happen to life or allow life to happen to you. So, what say you? Dive in as Dawn talks how doubt can creep up on us and why we have to make the choice to live our best life. It’s time to focus on the things...

Change. The modification, the altercation, the altering. Basically something different. Change that you see in yourself and embracing that change. Change is uncomfortable. I like to think change is synonymous with growth. Because growth, it's an evolution. But more importantly, it's a process. And it makes me think of this track, "I Can See The Change" by Celeste. And in it she says, "I can see th...

You know, we get so caught up in caring what other people think of us, that we rob ourselves of our own joy. We will adjust the way we walk, talk, dress, how we wear our hair, who we date, what we do for a living based on someone else’s opinion of us. Ain’t that crazy? Now, I’m not saying that it’s uncommon but that’s crazy as hell when you think about it. To actually allow someone who cannot eat...

What do you want out of life? They say our choices dictate our desires and wants. So if you are not receiving what it is that you desire out of life and what you want, then perhaps there needs to be some look on the choices that you have decided to make in your life. I mean, heck, if we look at it just alphabetically wise, if we look at from the time that we are born to the time that we are dying....

Hear me when I say this. You can't fail if you don't quit. If you fall down seven times, get up eight. If you can look up, you can get up. Your location is not your destination. Did you know that you have survived 100% of the worst days of your life? So why are you tripping? Look, no one said life was going to be easy. But if you decide to live it on purpose and for a purpose, I guarantee you it w...

Dreams don't work unless you do. You know, there's this thing called "sweat equity." Perhaps you even heard it in the scripture, “faith without works is dead" and that applies to every aspect of your life. You have to work for the things that you want. It doesn't just fall on your lap. Because remember, dreams don't work unless you do. So what say you? Do you feel that you are worth the life that...

On this episode, Dawn speaks on how you are the only blueprint for your life and the importance of trusting the timeline you’re on. Dawn reflects on how she started her “Vitamin D with Dawn Dai” podcast underneath a comforter in New York to recording in a professional studio in Sherman Oaks, CA. Dreams don’t work unless you do and Dawn is putting in that work. Take a listen as Dawn shares her aspi...

Either you happen to life or you allow life to happen to you. I think sometimes we have this notion that we have a "pause," "rewind" and "delete" button when it comes to life. That's not how it works. That's why I always say it's so important to “live life on purpose and for a purpose.” I always tell you how “you are your greatest asset.” Well I need to add something on to that. And it's “time.” T...

God is good. And the way you can really understand and appreciate how good God is, is to have a relationship with God. And in order for that relationship to take place, that means you've had to go through some things. Because you probably had to call on God for a few things. Not understanding why you had to go through what you're going through, but understanding, you know you got to get through it...

Prayer changes things. I understand that now. Thinking back how Mr. Harvey used to always say that when I was working at the Steve Harvey Morning Show . Prayer changes things. It's our connection. It's how we talk to God. Now, how you choose to communicate, that's up to you. Whether that's you closing your hands and your eyes. Whether that's you going for a walk, working out, meditating. Whatever...

I'm here to remind you that you are going to have to knuck and buck at your dreams. Knuck and buck at the haters. Knuck and buck at the naysayers. Knuck and buck at anything that doesn't serve in the betterment of you. What do I mean by that? Well, let's be honest. Life isn't a cakewalk, but it wasn't supposed to be. No one said it was going to be easy, but it was guaranteed that it would be worth...

What book has made the biggest impact on your life? Dawn shares how "The Game of Life and How to Play It" by Florence Scovel Shinn opened up her mind to metaphysics and the power of manifestation.

Gratitude is everything. The more grateful you are, the more things you have to be grateful for. What are you grateful for? What lesson are you counting as a blessing? Remember, everything is happening for your greater good. Don't get frustrated and don't get hard on yourself. Some things take time. Yes, that means you have to have patience. Yes, that means you have to fail your way to success. Ye...
