Someone paralyzed my growth by projecting their fears on me. Are you like me where you get the most amazing ideas, take action on them, but drop the ball somewhere in the middle and never see them to the finish line?
If you can relate, let me help you free yourself from this bondage. I’ve discovered someone or maybe it’s a few people you’ve met along your journey that planted a very toxic seed in your life that won’t allow you to finish.
I need you to go back in your pile that is stuck at the gate and pick one of your projects that you really felt passionate about. Now I am asking you the following:
🤔 Who told you that you would never make it?
🙁Who projected their fears on you?
😢Who told you that you are not worthy?
➡️ Who paralyzed your growth?
Let’s pick back up where we left off and finish this time!
When these three inner teams operate in harmony, we unlock the potential for extraordinary growth, resilience, and self-realization. The mind provides clarity, reasoning, and strategic thinking, while the soul adds depth, intuition, and emotional intelligence. The spirit infuses us with inspiration, creativity, and a sense of connectedness to the greater universe.
Dear Life Warriors, you ought to have self-awareness and know your worth in every situation. Stop looking for validation, accolades, and respect in your organization or team. Do not give to receive do them to make yourself feel better and start celebrating yourself for all that you’ve done so far.
When you seek validation, respect, and accolades you are lowering your value. Such metrics do not command respect and will subject you to a negative mindset once your efforts goes unnoticed. So change how you do things and why you do them and you will stop feeling unappreciated at work. And with time you will start commanding respect because of endorsing self-awareness!

Dear Life Warriors, bullying can often be subtle because it is not always overt or physical in nature. Rather, it can manifest through more subtle behaviours such as exclusion, gossiping, belittling, or undermining someone's work or reputation. These actions can be difficult to detect or prove, which can make it challenging for victims to address and for organisations to prevent.
Rejection can certainly have positive aspects, although it can also be a difficult and painful experience. Here are some ways in which rejection can be a positive thing:
It helps you grow: Rejection can be a powerful learning experience. When you are rejected, you have the opportunity to reflect on what went wrong and what you can do differently in the future. This can help you improve your skills and become a better version of yourself.
It makes you resilient: Dealing with rejection can be tough, but it can also build your resilience. When you learn to bounce back from rejection and keep moving forward, you develop a sense of inner strength that can help you tackle future challenges.
It clarifies your goals: Sometimes rejection can help you realize that what you thought you wanted isn't actually what you want at all. If you're rejected from a job or a relationship, for example, it may be a sign that you're better off pursuing something else that aligns more closely with your values and interests.
It opens up new opportunities: Sometimes rejection can lead to unexpected opportunities. For example, if you don't get the job you applied for, you might discover a new company or career path that you wouldn't have considered otherwise.
Ultimately, how you perceive and respond to rejection will depend on your mindset and attitude. If you view rejection as a learning experience and an opportunity for growth, it can have positive effects on your life.
Self-sabotage is a common problem that many people face, and it can be particularly damaging when it happens in the workplace.
Did you know Self-sabotage can manifest in different ways at work, such as procrastination, perfectionism, fear of failure, lack of confidence, and negative self-talk. Here are some strategies that can help you overcome self-sabotage at work:
📍First step Identify your self-sabotaging behaviors: Take a moment to reflect on your actions and thoughts at work and identify any negative patterns that are hindering your progress.Once you know what the problem is, you can start to work on it.
📍Challenge your negative self-talk: Our inner voice can be our biggest enemy. When you hear negative self-talk, challenge it. Ask yourself, "What evidence do I have that this thought is true?" You'll likely find that your negative thoughts are unfounded and irrational.
📍Set realistic goals: Setting unrealistic goals can lead to feelings of failure and self-doubt. Break down larger goals into smaller, manageable steps to help you stay on track.
📍Celebrate your successes: Recognize and celebrate your achievements, no matter how small they may seem. This can help build your confidence
📍Prioritize self-care:prioritize activities that bring you joy and reduce stress, such as meditation or spending time with loved ones, hey I bought a plant and I water it and speak life into everyday. This brings me joy.
You get my point. Travel with confidence today.

ABOUT DEAR LIFE WARRIORS (DLW):
Dear Life Warrior’s mission is to empower people of color with unyielding tenacity to hang on until destiny is fulfilled.

Dear Life Warriors, Dr. Varnado left her traditional career of almost 20 years in Obstetrics and Gynecology in 2021 to address the broken healthcare system, which currently puts the most resources in treating symptoms, when it really needs to address the root cause of diseases. Through her years of practice, she has realized that many know what it takes to be healthy but outside of a support system their efforts rarely yield the desired outcome because their environments often reinforce poor habits. Her focus now is to help others achieve optimal mental and physical health by focusing on lifestyle based treatment, which she believes, could prevent and manage most ailments. This shift was born from starting her podcast in November 2020, Office Visits with Dr. V, where she not only educates women about their gynecologic health and how their bodies function but also about their overall health and wellness.
Dr. Varnado was born and raised North Carolina and has been living out a childhood dream of taking care of women of all ages as an Ob/Gyn. She is a proud graduate of Hampton University and The Brody School of Medicine at East Carolina University. She completed her Ob/Gyn residency at Tulane University in New Orleans, LA, where she learned how to be an excellent surgeon and physician. Being a mother of two, having a marriage of 17 years, a supportive family and a strong relationship with God are keys to her success.

Dear Life Warriors, I am not sure you are aware, but it's the experiences we go through in our childhood that guides our adult life. Have you ever sat and thought about what your childhood experiences were like? YOu should.
I challenge you to do this in your next quiet moment with yourself. Draw a picture of a house with many windows. Each window represent an experience that affects your spirit to this day. It either gives you a happy moment or bad moment. Count how many windows in total and then add up the happy windows and the dirty windows. Take the total dirty windows and divide it by total windows. Convert your final number into a percentage. The final number represents the percentage of the day you will experience negative thoughts. Your job is to work on cleaning up all the windows. AKA negative thoughts which will lead to negative emotions which will lead to manifestation of toxicity in your life.

Dear Life Warriors, "you don't hire employees and workers, you hire humans"~ Natasha Bowman. Employers, I encourage you to take the HOLISTIC APPROACH TO CORPORATE HEALTH. It's a simple approach, you are hiring a whole person and that whole person comes with a whole lot of stuff. Very well said by Natasha in this interview.
You have to adjust your leadership style, you have to be humble, and you have to be empathetic. Your personal plan of reflection and inclusion begins with you. I just loved loved this conversation. BRING BACK THE "HUMAN" IN HR! That's my campaign for 2022 and I stand by it.
I encourage you to consult with Natasha on your next DEI initiatives! She will whip your organization into shape with love.

[What does corporate wellness mean to you?]
Dear Life Warriors, wellness is not about giving your employees a gym membership or a day off. Corporate Wellness is about the culture in the organization.
If I show up everyday and I am met with bullies (you know who you are ; ) , the fact that I can't advance in the company, the stress of performing under certain guidelines that was never disclosed to me and this list can go on and on. These things will create a stressful environment that will eventually take a toll on my mental health. If you ignore the mental health of your employees you will be missing the mark on what true corporate wellness really means.
A good corporate wellness program will tackle mental health issues and make it open dialog within the organization.
Don't have culture eat mental health for breakfast.

Dear Life Warriors, mental illness is real and it's affecting more people than statistics are able to show. Meet Nikki Payne, a familicide survivor, who was able to find peace and purpose after loss. Her husband was never diagnosed with a mental illness until after he took the lives of her children and then committed suicide. She then learned he suffered from Bipolar Disorder, which came as a shock to her because his symptoms never showed its face until the day of the tragic accident.

Dear Life Warriors, What an incredible story.
THE PERSON -Creative at heart, passionate by trade. Ever since Nik was a little girl growing up in Brooklyn, NY, her happy place has always been an escape to her creative outlets. This is where she excelled and thrived: in fashion, dance and cosmetology. Nik recalls many childhood memories being creative, from building pilgrims out of clay to exploring nature with her late mother. She also learned the importance of appearance and dressing to the "T" from her late Guyanese grandmother, who never left the house without lipstick nor being dressed like the outdoors was her runway, even if it was just a trip to the grocery store. Definitely something Nik took after—minus the lipstick (lol)!!
THE CAREER -A young designer who got her start in 1998. Nik dove in head first after a major break in 2002 when she was introduced to the Dipset Family. That’s when she discovered that wardrobe styling actually existed as a career. Her determination, dedication, hard work, and eagerness to learn afforded her a plethora of amazing opportunities to work with many greats along the way, like world renowned photographers: Albert Watson, Vikram Pathak, Dennis Leupold; artists: Cardi B, Estelle,TI, Nicki Minaj, Rotimi, Dave East; athletes - Carmelo Anthony, Jimmy Butler, Demariyus Thomas, Matt Harvey; film: LaChanze, Terri J. Vaughn,Tara Wallace - to name a few. While Nik was building her foundation as a well rounded stylist, designing cooled on the back burner for years. Opportunities to design only surfaced for clients out of necessity, and it didn't go much further than that. Nik decided to return to her roots 22 year later by launching N.E.W by Nik Woodz in 2020.

Dear Life Warriors, what is healthy? Healthy is to know oneself. There is no age limit on change. You have to decide for yourself, you don't want to do this anymore, because it's not working for me. Anyone can decide at any age, enough is enough.
Spirituality involves the recognition of a feeling or sense or belief that there is something greater than myself, something more to being human than sensory experience, and that the greater whole of which we are part is divine. Opening of the heart to accept and receive what the universe has to offer for you is an essential aspect of true spirituality.
Dr. Anita, believes spirituality is to honor oneself because it is through the spirit you attached to the universe, you accept, you let go of things, and you find your authentic self.
How are you honoring yourself?

Dear Life Warriors, Everything in our lives begins with how we feel. If you don't feel good mentally then physically everything becomes difficult. You have to really start having an open dialog with your mind on why you feel the way you do. This is where control begins, it's your job to guide your mind on that path of positivity.

[New Corporate Circus motto---Not my circus, NOT my monkey]
Dear Life Warriors, Meet the amazing Madeline McQueen! I swear to you I have never laughed so hard during an interview. There were so many good moments that I was having a hard time trying to figure out what moment to release to you first. I thought about sharing her experience of being a pregnant sales representative in a time where it was known as the "old boys club". Our conversation took a real serious turn, but this moment right here, was my absolute favorite moment of the entire conversation.
Madeline, I have always been a big supporter of your work on LinkedIn, but I had no idea your personality was such a dynamite. If you are not connected to Madeline McQueen Please CONNECT ASAP!

Dear Life Warriors, I want to dispel the myths on mental illness! Meet my friend, Natasha Bowman, President of Performance-Renew, Attorney, Tedx Speaker, Published Author, Professor and she has Bipolar Disorder.
Natasha shared in a recent post on Linked In, "This is the face of someone with Bipolar Disorder. When most people think of someone with mental illness, they often think of someone who shows visible symptoms. Because of the stigma we don't get the support we need"
Overcoming mental health stigma is only one part of a larger effort to foster an organizational culture of psychological safety. That stigma prevents us from talking openly about mental health issues and prevents those who need help the most from seeking it.
I had the pleasure of interviewing Natasha where she shared a little bit of her story and why it was important to let people know of her diagnosis.
Bipolar disorder, formerly called manic depression, is a mental health condition that causes extreme mood swings that include emotional highs (mania or hypomania) and lows (depression). You are not alone. Statistics shows that 1 in every 5 people suffer from this disorder and you do not have to suffer in silence.

Besides this, She is a woman of faith and works for the ministry. . It’s very interesting to see Johana donning multiple hats. That being said, let's step into Johana’s success story for more inspiration…
A quick look back at Johana’s success story:
Initially, things weren’t rosy for Johana. Let’s dwell a little deeper to know more about Johana. So she was on the administrative side. Basically, she had to carry out all the administrative tasks.
Within her short time, she got to know more about insurance, billing and anything and everything related to revenue cycle management. And to date, she hasn’t looked back. All her hard work reaped into success and now she is a successful revenue cycle management consultant.
At present, Johana has got a good amount of experience in revenue cycle management operations & project management in healthcare clinics and inpatient and outpatient, etc. She’s been consulting since 2015. That’s a huge transformation from an ordinary woman to an extraordinary and self-employed woman!
What is Revenue Cycle Management in healthcare and what do the RCM Consultants do?
Revenue Cycle Management/RCM is like a backbone for the healthcare industry. The healthcare revenue cycle management is the financial process of collecting medical payments for the bills to generate/ bring revenue for the healthcare organizations. RCM involves collecting patient’s data(personal information), administrative data, insurer’s name and treatment codes, with financial billing information.
Key takeaways:
Johana always planned her work in advance. She had the habit of planning, organizing all her tasks in advance. The next big thing she always motivated herself. Yes, self-motivation is the key, so motivate yourself and plan your work ahead.
Besides, she has her morning routine. Johana makes her morning productive. She reads the Bible, meditates, or plans her to-do activities for the day. She loves her job and is more dedicated and committed to her work. Start your day by doing something constructive and be committed to what you do!
Never get upset by rejection. Put on your strategic hat and move on to the next phase of work. Don’t stay put in one place. And don’t let your emotions steal your happiness and creativity. Keep going with the flow. Live the moment and enjoy your life to the fullest. Be positive! Motivate. Inspire. and empower others.
