In today’s episode, Tyra’s talking about something she never thought she’d be able to say — she finally feels at home in her body.

This week’s pep talk is all about reconnecting with yourself through movement, play, and curiosity. Tyra shares how trying new hobbies like boxing, pottery, and dancing (yes, twerking included!) helped her move out of her head and into her body — not for aesthetics or productivity, but for presence and joy.

Pep Talk Challenge: Reconnect to your body through play.

Pick one thing this week that brings you joy through movement. It could be a dance session in the mirror, walking barefoot in grass, painting with your hands, punching the air like you’re in a music video.

This week’s Pep Talk is all about turning your space into a home — not just a place you crash. Tyra shares how decorating her apartment transformed the way she shows up for herself and how creating a space that reflects who you are can bring more peace, joy, and groundedness into your daily life. She’s breaking down why your space matters more than you might think — and how even the smallest touches can shift your energy. Plus, the weekly challenge will help you get started with one cozy corner. Let’s make room for joy — one vibe-y nook at a time.

Challenge of the Week ✨

Pick one corner of your home — a nightstand, a shelf, your desk — and make it yours. Add something that feels like you: a candle, a framed photo, a plant, a quote you love. Don’t overthink it. Just set the intention that this spot is for joy.

In today’s episode, Tyra shares how she turned her apartment into a cozy little coffee shop — just because. No big milestone, no birthday, just vibes. She dives into how hosting has become her love language, why choosing joy is an intentional act, and the importance of surrounding yourself with people who celebrate you for simply being.

If you’ve ever felt like joy had to be earned or reserved for “special occasions,” this episode is your permission slip to celebrate life as it is. Because sometimes the most meaningful parties are the ones with no reason at all.

This week’s Affirmation is “ Making room for joy will allow it to find me.”

3 Biggest Takeaways:

Hosting is an Unofficial Love Language

Even though it's not one of the “official” five, hosting blends all of them — acts of service, quality time, words of affirmation, and physical touch — into one meaningful experience that shows love through presence, intention, and ambiance.

Joy Doesn’t Need a Reason — Just Room

You don’t have to wait for a birthday or achievement to celebrate. Making space for joy in your everyday life is an act of resistance, peace, and self-love. Light the candles. Set the vibe. You’re allowed.

The Right Community Will Match Your Energy

When you're surrounded by people who truly see and love you, celebration becomes natural. You won’t have to perform or plan around perfection — they’ll show up for your joy just as you show up for theirs.

In this episode, Tyra dives into the power of decluttering—not just your space, but your mind and heart too. If something is draining you more than it’s filling you, it’s time to reevaluate. From unhealthy relationships to limiting beliefs to that pile of things you “might need one day,” we’re breaking down what it means to truly let go and make space for what aligns with you.

This week’s Affirmation is “when I let go of what is not for me, I create space to discover what is”

3 Biggest Takeaways:

• Your space reflects your mind. A cluttered environment often mirrors a cluttered emotional state.
• Letting go isn’t just about removing things—it’s about making room for something better.
• The things you’re afraid to release might be the very things holding you back.

Why do we always say no to help—even when we need it? In this episode, Tyra breaks down the cycle of hyper-independence and why so many of us feel like we have to handle everything alone. She shares personal stories of turning down help, even when it was freely offered, and challenges us to shift our mindset. If you've ever found yourself carrying too much—physically or emotionally—this episode is for you.

You'll walk away with insights on why we reject support, how to break free from hyper-independence, and a challenge to help you actually start accepting help when it's offered.

Pep Talk Challenge: Accept help when it’s offered this week—whether it’s a small gesture or something bigger, say yes instead of brushing it off. And if no one offers, challenge yourself to ask for help. Whether it’s carrying something, reaching out for advice, or delegating a task—just practice letting someone support you.

In today's episode, we dive into the feeling of being unseen and the powerful lessons that come from it. So often, we find ourselves in seasons of life where we feel overlooked or unnoticed, but what if these hidden moments are the very ones shaping us into who we are meant to become? Together, we’ll reflect on the importance of trusting the process, embracing personal growth, and learning to validate ourselves—especially when the world isn’t doing it for us. 

This week’s Affirmation is “The doors with my name on them will open effortlessly”

3 Biggest Takeaways from the episode

• Trust the Process: Unseen seasons aren’t wasted—they are an essential part of your growth. Trust that the right opportunities, people, and moments will come when you're truly ready.

• Validation Starts with You: Instead of seeking external approval, choose to validate yourself. Know your worth, and don’t wait for someone else to affirm it.

• Embrace the Hidden Seasons: Your hidden seasons are not about being forgotten, but about preparation. Use this time to build your foundation, heal, and grow into your next chapter.
