On the last episode, I shared that I was going to be "looking for my fit" in different ways including updating my wardrobe. Well, I went shopping, and all I can say about that is, "I tried!" LOL! It didn't go as planned, and now I need help! For real...Ha!
And what's an episode of Looking For My Fit without a little motivation. If you're a habitual self-sabotager, the last few minutes of this episode are for you! Sometimes you can be the person holding you back. It's time to get out of your own way.

It has been 4 months since the last episode, but I'm so happy to share that the podcast is baaaaack! The last few months have been been filled with changes, including a change in perspective. I'm talking about it today, and I'm not alone! My oldest daughter Jordan is joining me on this episode as we talk about the changes we've experienced and the impact those changes have had on us.

Life happens in seasons. Some seasons are for progressing, working towards goals, and climbing upwards to new levels. Then there are seasons that are simply made for sitting still, acknowledging how far you've climbed, and taking the time to enjoy the view from where you are. And that's exactly what I've been doing.
Are you in a constant state of checking things off your list and moving on to the next? If so, this is the episode for you!

It's been a minute y'all, but what an amazing way to come back on the grid! On this episode I'm speaking with one of my best friends LeLe Jones Sneed who is an FBI agent, working mother, songwriter, and author of the book "Be True to You".
"Beautifully written and illustrated, "Be True to You" is a book that will be handed down through generations. What started as a note to her daughter True to always remember to be true to herself, turned into a beautiful mother/daughter collaboration reminding ALL women to prioritize their personal well-being.
This transparent conversation was eye opening for me! So eye opening that I went on sabbatical for 2 months after we recorded (more about that on the next episode). I genuinely believe that this book will remind and inspire you (and our younger generation) to live your most authentic life!

Recently, I found myself feeling stuck because I was struggling to make decisions. I was overthinking and changing my mind every day. Then a lesson I used to teach my students came back around to teach me. That's when I realized that it was time to get out of my feelings, and get into my purpose! If you've been experiencing something similar, I hope that this advice frees you too! Let's get into it!

When we're looking to make a change in our lives, we usually on focus on the things we need to give up, versus the things we can add. I don't know about you, but that rarely works for me. When I try depriving myself of things, it usually ends with me wanting that thing even more. So I'm shifting from having a deprivation mindset, to having a "more" mindset. What do I want more of? Well, that's what I'm sharing on this episode. I hope this inspires you to look for more too!

If you follow me on Instagram, you know that coffee & car therapy are a regular thing for me. The car has become a haven of relaxation, and also the place where my best thoughts come to me. Problem is, by the time I sit down to record a podcast episode, I've normally had so many thoughts, that its hard to recall even one! And definitely hard to capture the essence of what I was feeling when I first had the thought. So I've decided to start catching my thoughts in the moment. So grab your coffee, and come hang with me and my thoughts for some good ol' car therapy!

We be should all be mindful about what we attach our value to. When we're not mindful, we find ourselves in situations, relationships, or jobs that are no longer serving us! And that often leads to frustration, resentment, or feeling unfulfilled. So what should you do when you find yourself with these feelings? For me, the answer was to be honest with myself. Tap in and listen as I share how I finally decided to own my truth, and how that is leading to big changes for me!

We're living in a time where hustle & grind and lack of sleep are glorified. We're also living in a time where we are burning ourselves out trying to prove our value.We work tirelessly until we are completely burnt out, THEN we try to take care of ourselves. It does NOT have to be this way!
On this episode, I'm speaking with Dr. Patrice Buckner Jackson, better known as Dr. PBJ. She is the burnout disrupter, and today she's sharing how we can create boundaries that allow us to be proactive vs. reactive.
Dr. Patrice Buckner Jackson, known in her community by Dr. PBJ, is an educator of over 20 years, an Executive Coach for more than 10 years, and the creator and host of the Heart Work with PBJ podcast. Dr. Jackson founded EduCare Training and Consulting, LLC out of a passion for equipping and supporting "heart-workers"; those who do their work with their whole heart. Working in this way can carry a high price tag: your mind, your body, and your relationships may be in distress as you serve the needs of others. Dr. Jackson leads her community in disrupting cycles of burnout so you can do the work you are called to do without losing the life you desire.

As much as I would love to say that all days are great, I can't because that would be a LIE! Listen, today was quite the day. Frustration was high, and patience was thin. However, I didn't just dwell in it, or allow my emotions to spiral out of control. Instead, I checked myself. Listen, things are not always good. That's life, and you can't control that. But what you can control is how you react when life tries to take you by surprise.

How often do you hear people bragging about how much they grind? We're living in a time when being a member of "team no sleep" is glorified. So many people will have you believe that grinding 24/7 is the only way to become successful. Let me be the first to tell you, you don't have to suffer from burnout to achieve your goals!
Today's guest, Lindsay Rae Perry, shares why that mindset should be put to rest! Lindsay is a Speaker, Award-Winning Strategist, and the CEO of Apps Admins, an all-in-one cloud solutions firm helping businesses to grow better and scale in the cloud. In 2017, she had a life-altering experience that completely changed her mindset towards the grind and hustle mentality. Now, she's mentoring and coaching other women entrepreneurs on how they can successfully build their businesses without suffering from burnout using her iAM Quotient™
If you've been suffering from burnout, slow down and MAKE the time to listen to this episode! You do NOT have to keep living that way!

Do you consider yourself to be the "strong friend'? The friend who never breaks, and always wears a smile? Taylor Glynn, founder of Child Arise, is my guest today, and she shares the impact that being the strong friend had on her life.

It was through her journey of reflecting, unlearning, and healing that her program Child Arise was born!

Today, I'm throwing it back to the very first episode that I recorded with my husband Carlos just a little over a year ago. I listen to this with "new ears" in complete awe of just how much my life has evolved since this episode! It's a reminder of how quickly things can change! Carlos and I have a brand new episode coming next week, so I thought it would be a great time to look back at where we were a year ago, before sharing what we have going on now! It's a great conversation about marriage with raw moments, and lots of laughs!

They pushed past their fears, doubts, and insecurities to chase their purpose. On this episode, I'm talking with my girl Victoria who is better known these days as Vicky Roe on her top-rated radio show on Q95.5 in Lafayette, LA! Victoria's story is so inspiring, and teaches a great lesson about patience, persistence, and believing in yourself! It's also a reminder that things don't always happen overnight, or the way we planned. BUT if we're willing to stay the course and commit to never giving up, we can make our dreams a reality! Get ready for an inspiring story full of laughs!

On this episode, my girls Devan and Charmeen are back, and the conversation we have is one that everyone (especially moms and women) need to hear!

On this episode, I'm joined by one of my closest friends Anstarie, aka, McKinna! Becoming a new mom can be hard! Especially when it seems like everyone before you did it with such ease! We know that when you're an expectant or new mom, everyone is giving you unsolicited advice which can make life feel even more overwhelming! So today, we simply share our stories and share the things we wish we would have known prior to transitioning into motherhood! Sit back and get ready for a good laugh!
Today, my oldest daughter is joining me as we talk about the next chapter of her life! She’s heading to high school with Carlos! Oh, what a school year we have to look forward to!

My husband and I don’t argue, but we definitely use to, and it wasn’t pretty! In this episode, we share how we’ve grown from having toxic arguments to the effective communication we have today! Plus a little bonus laugh about Carlos and his dream of being a handyman!
In this episode, my husband joins me to discuss our 16 year marriage! We get a lot of laughs as we delve into the things that have been most difficult for us over the course of our marriage, and the things that have helped us to sustain for so long. Especially with him having to adjust to the “new” me as I’ve evolved as a person AND recently changed careers!
