Racquel OC
You can choose to live on a road to nowhere or you can go down the road that God has destined for you. The Ebony Women’s Guide is a safespace that leads women to action. This podcast aims to deep dive into the issues they are facing. We will give you a safe space to develop your voice and build inspiration.
Failure is unfortunately a part of life. We do not have control over the situations and misfortunes, but we do have control over our responses. Some of our influences like our upbringing can lead to how we respond to losses. Some of the situations in our lives can lead us to feel unworthy such as
1. Failed Relationships
2. Career
3. Underachieving
4. Failure of Business
Developing the language to get out of our comfort zone can help us to reframe and practice the Lessons. Feelings can be misguided and lead us astray. There is nothing that we can stop these losses. There is something that we do to reframe our losses into lessons. Reframe. Practice. Teach. Every new habit takes time and work. The key is to strive for excellence in all that we do instead of perfection. In order to do so the ebony women's guide motto of sharing vulnerability in order to help inspire and empower women seeks to be that space.

Where's your courage?
Courage isn't the absence of fear. It's in the small actions we take to keep doing them. The past doesn't have to predict what our future will be like. Understanding why friendships fail is important. First, we take some time to understand ourselves and the role we play in these friendships.
1.) Forgive
2.) Reflect on the shortcomings of the friendship
3.)Develop the courage to keep meeting and connecting with people
We are made to be connectors, although outside influences within our society try to tell us otherwise. Meeting people can be difficult but it's not unattainable. After making up your mind to meet new people. Remember to go slow but start stepping out of your comfort zones and meeting new people at places of interest.
1.)Places of circumstance (church, work, gym)
2.) Use meetups
3.)Even try reconnecting with old friends ( don't need to reinvent the wheel)
Friendships are an essential part of life and should be treated as such. Friends are the family you get to choose. So choose wisely!!

In part two of our talk on friendships. We discuss the accountability portion of friendships. It is important to develop accountability in friendships because it develops a trusting and working friendship. The action of reaching goals is sometimes having someone to ask you the hard questions. Accountability is essential in reaching your goals when it's difficult to stay focused or even motivated.
The purpose of Accountability Friendships:
1.) Motivate in Reaching the hard tasks
