Thank you for your patience, I know it has been a while since I uploaded an episode.  In this episode I discuss some shifts I have been making.  I have been feeling called to take a break and it’s been interesting.  Currently I am unplugged from my social media accounts, screening emails/text messages/ and phone calls... and practicing more of experiencing the Present.  Come through and tune in as I share what inspired these breaks and some of my reflections so far.  I would love to hear from you.  Please let me know if you can relate in any way.  Life is full of constant change and in each season different tools may be required as we adjust.  I pray that this episode resonates with someone out there. Love you.

I’ve been saying ‘Gratitude' in 3’s for a while now, and it feels pretty amazing.  I realized that when I started bringing awareness to my practice of gratitude something shifted within, and I was experiencing life different.  Whether my practice of gratitude is the reason or not, I can’t help but believe that it plays a major part!  It is my BELIEF that GRATITUDE MATTERS.  And with that being said, let’s talk! ILY.

It’s been about three weeks since we last connected.  I AM SO EXCITED.  This podcast episode talks about my perspective of growing and changing.  I used to feel like I was incapable of committing to things because I was always changing my mind.  And when I would change my mind other people reactions seemed to reflect that I was just this wishy washy person blowing with the wind... and maybe that’s exactly what I was.  But their reactions came off to me as if they disapproved or if somehow I was wrong in how I was living my life.  As I am evolving and blossoming into who I called to be, I am realizing that these growth changes the choices I once made.  Maybe a decision was right for “yesterday’s Charliie,” but today Charliie is ready for an upgrade.  This podcast episode talks about creating the space for your level up.  Giving yourself permission to grow and make new choices, despite how others may view it.  And to be patient with yourself in your journey of evolving.  To whom much is given, much is required... My Love, you are exactly where you need to be, doing what you are called to be doing.  Keep leveling up and changing directions as it resonates with your Soul. ILY.

This was not the easiest topic for me to record, nonetheless I was able to get it together.  In this episode I talk about my experience with feeling as if I had to prove I was “black enough.”  In addition, I do a CTA for us to have compassion and respond  in love to one another as we discuss sensitive topics surrounding being black or a person of color.  Clearly this episode doesn’t even touch the surface of things, but maybe this can be a door for honest, loving, and REAL TALK.

I am coming from my own perspective and therefore it is limited.  However, I am interested in hearing your prespective and opinion.  How can we supporting one another on this journey?  How can we create more safe and welcome spaces, as a community?  How can we accept our difference and still know that we are in this together; your way of responding to injustice-- doesn’t have to look like mine.

I love you and pray that this episode at least helps one being feel LOVE.

xx, CHARLiiE

What I have is my experience and that is what I am here to share.  Through prayer I have learned a lot! Some of the first things were: (1) be careful what you ask for because you will get it; (2) check in with yourself-- are you ready for an answer?; and (3) BE SPECIFIC + CLEAR. 

During the episode I get an “ah ha” moment... where it all comes together with some great guidance.  Not just for you, but for myself.  A cute little tip to enhance that prayer life of ours! Let’s get these prayers out there (no holding back) and LEVEL UP!!!

Example of Affirmations for the expectation of a prayer answered:

I am thankful that my support is here.

I am thankful that I was offered the job.

This episode is jammed packed.  Here are some things mention: I discuss being perceived as always happy or filled with joy-- and what that means for me.  I share with you a recent situation that helped me realize that even when I am acting in love and light, sometimes the motive for that is FEAR.  I discuss different aspects of choosing happiness and joy; taking back your power; being responsible for your life; & acknowledging things to be grateful for in all circumstances.

You are in motion.  Let’s discuss some things that come up while we are in motion (aka journeying through life).  How can we make the best of every situation?  Activate your happiness.  Activate your joy.  It all starts with a choice.

In Episode 13 we talk about the battle with the critic within.  Sometimes it is other people downplaying our dreams and goals, however often times, it’s the critic within us.  So how do you deal with the inner critic?  Have you acknowledged the presence of the inner critic when it shows up?  And if you have witnessed your own inner critic, how do you move forward with those goals despite what the critic has to say?

I LOVE YOU! And in 2019 and beyond, we’re all glowing up! Let’s make sure we keep in mind what we’re up against.

In this episode I talk about releasing the expectations placed on us as a result of the role or labels we occupy within society.  As womxn or men, there are certain expectations placed on us, however, often times those expectations limit our experience.  

In the limitation of Being, we act in accordance with the labels and roles we are placed in.  We allow roles or social expectations to dictate how we should or shouldn’t behave.  Instead of doing what we truly desire, we make our choices in accordance of what’s expected of us.  This relates also to our emotions and how they manifest.  

On this podcast episode I discuss CRYING.  Too often I hear womxn express how they want to cry but they stop themselves.  And they don’t stop themselves because of how they feel, they are so focused on how others will react.  I wanted to touch on that and also encourage you to CRY IF YOU WANT TO! And yes, cry, even if in public.

If you want to skip the intro and B.O.L.D. segment, the discussion starts around minute 9 + 20 seconds.  

K. Until next week, later.
