Season 1 Finale :)
When you make the choice to level up, it's exciting right? You get all your plans together, your goals in line, your vision board perfectly crafted. You let go of all the toxic people in your life and your self-care is on TEN! But what happens when you're still struggling to get to the next level? That's exactly what we're talking about on today's episode! The uncommon things we need to prepare ourselves for when we truly make the choice to level up.
We're one episode away from the season one finale!! Times flies right? We'll be back next week with episode 10! Until then enjoy episodes 1-9 :)
In an effort to expand upon our discussion about SELF, started in last week's podcast. We're going to take some time to actually learn how to trust and believe in ourselves on a consistent basis. Because we all know that in this day and age of perfectly crafted and quotable social media memes & posts. A phrase like all you have to do is “believe in yourself” can come off as a little cliche right?
And as women, we have so many layers, perspectives, past experiences, doubts & fears that its gonna take a lot more than a perfectly crafted post to get us to truly make a change. So, we’re going to lay the groundwork to start the process, once and for all. We’ll explore some of the most common reasons it’s typically hard for us to believe in ourselves and also some new habits we can adopt to help us shift our belief systems.
Hit play and let's get to it!

When it comes to assuming things, we're putting ourselves in a space to make an ASS out of U & Me! Turns out that ASSUMPTION is actually the one word that came to my mind, while watching the premiere episode of season 4 of insecure. So, in order to celebrate the shows return and offer a bit of commentary. I figured... why not use this week's podcast to explore the dangers of making assumptions and learn how to navigate through these awkward situations, by simply communicating. There are a few spoilers in the podcast, so if you haven't watched to show yet... do that first ;)

In the midst of all the current events, I couldn’t help but notice how fast authorities, leaders and the like were able to cancel and shut down things that once held so much importance.

Wouldn't we avoid a lot of unnecessary heartbreak and turmoil??? Tune in to hear the rest....

While black women are proving to be extremely successful in our careers, education and businesses. We are often met with fearful narratives and statistics that suggest that we can't have it all.

So how do we find the balance between our relationship standards and these so called statistics?? We'll learn exactly how in this episode. Press play to tune in!
