***********

Identity can be a weird thing. The way we think of ourselves, how we define ourselves, the story we tell ourselves about who we are, all of that comes together to create our identity.

But what happens when we reach a crossroads where we are clear that we have to let go of a certain part of our identity - or pehaps all of it entirely?

In this solo episode, Dina unpacks a topic that doesn't get enough attention, and that's grief. But not in the sense you would think. We talk about grieving the loss of an identity we have let go of in order to move forward.

For many women, they have planted the seeds of courage to go after their truth and what truly matters to them. But it's not a process that is without its moments of uncertainty and doubt. It's a veritable rollercoaster of emotions. Mourning the loss of the person you used to be, the relationships that you built around that identity and the dreams that no longer serve you. And all the while, realizing that letting go is the only way to grow.

Dina shares how taking the time to reflect on your identity is not only necessary, it's a radical act of self-determination, acknowledging pieces that will never be the same and establishing new pieces of the self that are built on things that came before.

In this week's episode, Dina sits down with friend, Michelle Madrid, an author, coach and motivational speaker. As an international adoptee herself, Michelle listens deeply to women and adoptees to help them get what they really want out of life, as they renew their joy and reignite their radiant light. In her own words, Michelle says: "I’m here to guide you to the abundance that you deserve, as you align yourself in mind, body, and spirit with your truest voice and identity."

Dina and Michelle talk about everything in this episode: from learning to love yourself, to getting off the hamster wheel of accomplishment and chasing what everyone expects you to chase, to letting go of the belief that "you should just be happy already", to being your most unapologetic self. We talk about what it took for Michelle to disrupt her own path to pursue her life's mission. 

Michelle will be releasing her new book in October 2023 through New World Library and more can be read about her on her website www.themichellemadrid.com

For as long as I can remember, I have been the stereotypical “good girl.” While it's something I used to take pride in when I was younger, I'm now realizing how problematic it has been - in my friendships, in my relationships, and in my career. Being the good girl, or telling yourself you have no other choice comes at a cost: an immense amount of pressure, most of it self-inflicted.

As a person who has always strived to improve (mentally, physically, spiritually, emotionally, socially), I have often fallen into the trap of attempting perfection, which always ends in failure. People get disappointed with good girls - because it's impossible to be good ALL the time. Because being a “good girl” comes with a lot of pressure to be well-behaved, kind, generous, modest, enthusiastic, polite, and friendly at all times.

In this episode, Dina sits down with embodiment doula, breathwork practitioner and friend, Marica Lowe to talk about something too many of us forget to do when we need to remember it most: TO BREATHE. 

Marica is an absolute disrupter.  After graduating with a BBA in Accounting in 2007, she hit the ground running with a career in audit at one of the Big 4 accounting firms, later pursuing a career in financial reporting in the private sector. In 2018, she became the only black person (1 of 2 minorities) on the executive team as the VP, Finance at an obstacle course racing company. Doing all that she could to follow the instructions from the parentals to work hard, make a lot of money, and save, she had a yearning in her soul to give back to my community of strong, driven, Black Women. 

Over the last 3 years, she has focused on understanding her purpose as an individual, relationally, and spiritually. Launching The Purple Kitty NY in 2020 allowed her to learn, experiment and be a resource to her community by providing space and information for individuals to see themselves.

Her mission is to help ignite the fire within and live your most spicy, sensual and sacred life. 

Connect with Marica through her website at www.thepurplekittyny.com/ and on Instagram @maricawithac and on Facebook and LinkedIn at Marica Lowe.

In this first episode of Season 4, Dina unpacks her word for 2023: DISRUPT.

Deciding to dedicate this entire season to disrupters, she shares her earliest story of being a disrupter in her career and discusses the pros and cons to disrupt certain narratives and toxic systems. She reflects on how earlier in her career, she was afraid of being "too disruptive"; but how now being firmly planted in full-time entrepreneurship, she feels completely comfortable in owning that title of DISRUPTER with confidence.

We define what it means to be a disrupter in this episode. Simply put, we see it as someone who is brave enough to challenge the status quo and introduce new and innovative ideas. It’s about thinking outside the box, taking a risk, and not being afraid to fail in the face of experimenting with a different perspective.

The hope in this episode is to get clear on your personal definition of what it means to be a disrupter; and identify the areas of where you could be taking more risks to disrupt any limiting beliefs.

In this final episode of Season 3, I unpack what the a year of unlearning has helped show me by way of what I've learned, unlearned, and how it's prepared for me what I *think* is next (because how can we really know, right?) 

What a wild and unpredictable ride it's been - and I wouldn't have it any other way. Tune in to hear my thoughts and reflections about what being committed to a conversations about unlearning has shown me about myself and the lessons I've taken from it. 

I invite you in to hear a little bit about Chapter 2022 where I peel back the curtain to what this year has really been like....the glamourous highs and the not so glamorous lows...and how I've been able to access gratitude for it all. 

Thank you for being a part of the conversation and I hope that you'll be along for the next season!
