Mother's Day and the recent passing of controversial social media personality and YouTuber has me thinking a lot about legacy. Being childfree means I have to be intentional and thoughtful about what my legacy is and who I will pass it on to--and I don't just mean tangible items. But what was even more interesting was the spectrum of responses I witnessed after the YouTuber's passing. I'm sure if he were here, he would vehemently defend what he would say his legacy is.But that's the thing, once we leave this Earth our legacy is largely made of the feelings, experiences, and perceptions other people have of us. I want all of us to lead and live a life in order to leave a legacy that we design and are proud of. And that’s what we’re discussing today...
- What is legacy and what I think about it
- Why legacy is important
- How to create a legacy
- Who to leave your legacy to
- Ways to document and preserve your legacy

~ SHOW NOTES ~ https://godssignaturestatement.com/unoffendedlifepodcast/
I’m doing a 2 part series on living an unoffended life. While listening to a podcast interview, the interviewer said something that I haven’t been able to shake, “what if we focused on loving the people that matter to us and living an unoffended life?”
Listen, I get it. We encounter some truly WACK situations and people in daily life that honestly leaves us with the RIGHT to feel offended (and to stay there for a minute). One of the things I’ve learned early on, is that intentionally choosing to live an unoffended life improves the quality of your life. And I want all of us to have the best life possible!
Let me know your thoughts!

This is probably one of my favorite conversations--Dr. Renee is hilariously smart. We talk about the time she was on 8 dating apps--yes 8! And we discuss how being "unbothered" by what others think has been a central part of her journey. You will enjoy this interview--promise.

It's been a while since I've released a podcast episode. In this episode, I discuss what has transpired over the past few months and the lesson I learned in the process--you don't have to start over, start from where you are. I also share 8 ways you can make a "brand new end."

In this episode, I interview Bryan and Erika Baker. Bryan and Erika are a super dope couple! One of the many reasons I am excited to talk to them is because not only do they do life together, they are in business together. A lot of the TrendSetters community have to navigate and balance both personal pursuits and their relationships. I think you will find this conversation particularly refreshing and enlightening. The one word that kept coming up in our conversations-- INTENTIONALITY. Stay tuned to hear an offer from Bryan and Erika. But I promise the anecdotes, inspiration, and information you receive is worth the listen.

In this episode of the The TrendSetters podcast, I interview Yoshika Hayward, a registered nurse and nursing coach. One of the things that excites me about this interview is that she began her business in the field that she as practiced in for over 15 years. Get ready for an exciting episode on how all of us, even if we're not in the nursing profession, can "Nurse the Rich Life."

In this episode of The TrendSetters Podcast, it's my favorite segment--The Life of a Creative. In this episode I feature the Oscar-nominated, award winning film director and easily the top 5 examples of #blackgirlmagic, Ava Duvernay. So many quotes, lessons, and parts to her journey that many of us can relate to...can't wait for you to listen!
I am fascinated by the life of creatives. From rappers to film directors, I am intrigued by what motivates them, their mantras, how they approach their work, etc. Coming off 3 stellar wins at the 2017 Grammys, my first focus for my series The Life of a Creative is Chance the Rapper. An award winning rapper with no record deal, no distribution deal, no publishing deal--streaming only content that he owns 100%.
The inaugural episode of The TrendSetters Podcast. In this episode I introduce myself by sharing the journey and story of my purpose. I also share what a trendsetter is and how discovering your purpose can put you on a path to discovering, developing and deploying your purpose.
