June 14, 2020 27: Picking Poison, Profit, Passion
You did it! You completed the four or more years necessary to earn your college degree of choice. No more all-nighters. No more office hours with nonchalant professors. No more group presentations (thank goodness!). As the pressure valves of college life were slowly released, you probably began to think of your future. Oh, the bright future of money, cars, trips, expensive clothes, a big house and don’t forget the large corner office. You probably already had a start date set for a job before you were adorned with your cap and gown. Or you could’ve been like most seniors and waited numerous months to hear back from the companies you interviewed for during your last year. No matter how you started your career, what’s most important is where you are today and where you want to be in the future. As Full-Time Black Women, most of us are probably experienced professionals or beginning to gain a few grains of seasoning. During these current times, you probably have either sat and pondered on your current situation be it employed or not.

If you are deciding on a career or job change, you should focus on the three P’s; poison, profit, and passion.

June 07, 2020 26: Microaggressions: That's Not A Compliment Karen
“You should wear your hair straight all the time!” “No, but where are you really from?” “Wow, you speak so well” “But you’re not like them though…”
Have you heard any of these before? I know I have. They almost sound harmless, but there’s something about their delivery that makes you raise an eyebrow. These are examples of microaggressions. No matter who you are, where you work or what your position, you probably deal with microaggressions on a daily basis.
What are Microaggressions
Microaggressions are intentional or unintentional actions or statements with negative undertones directed at a minority group member. They are often subtle in nature, which can lead to one of at least 3 things: (1) You dismiss it as nothing, (2) You question your level of sensitivity, (3) You wind up feeling emotionally exhausted and mentally fatigued. One of the issues with microaggressions is in the name…”micro-”. While they can be deemed as small, insignificant accidents by the one who says them, these mini mental/emotional attacks eventually take a toll on the receiver.

Listen to learn some ways of how to handle microaggressions in the workplace.

Full-Time Black Woman believes ALL BLACK LIVES MATTER!

We had the opportunity to speak with a beautiful minded sister, Sheena, a modern-day activist who wanted to share her passionate thoughts with our listeners. Sheena is a huge proponent of black people researching their history. She believes you have power in your vote and it is important to review the policies of your local, state, and federal candidates so you are well informed before you vote. Most importantly, Sheena is asking we all care for our fellow black man, woman, and child.

May 17, 2020 21: Rich Inner Life
When was the last time you attempted to deal with your emotions? We are pros at handling everyday complexities such as stress at work, relationships, daily tasks, and societal pressures. On top of our on-going responsibilities, we spend countless hours per week scrolling through social media feeds, processing aimless memes, videos, and photos, which result in minuscule enrichment. If it’s not a virtual distraction, we’re buying a new bag or taking a trip to a tropical island to snap the Instagram stunna pic of the year. Yet we refuse to admit what happens when that sense of admiration from those outward aspects fade away.
A rich inner life will give you the focus to reflect on your past while envisioning your future. It is basically finding the meaning and purpose of your life. A peaceful place separate from the constant hustle and bustle. A place just for you to nurture your most private thoughts, values, emotions, and fantasies. Today we are going to give you some tips to help you dream, learn, experience, and pass onto others while achieving a rich inner life.

May 10, 2020 20: Coin-sequences Of Accepting: Knowing Your Worth
A Coin-sequence is a consequence which negatively impacts your coins or earning potential.
One Coin-sequence many of us struggle with is not asking for a raise. Have you heard something like this before, “Great job! Wow, you killed that presentation! Your new tools increased productivity by 298%! We are so lucky to have you here with us!” If so, did a promotion or increase in earnings come along with your positive performance review? No! Well, that needs to change now. There is no reason for you to continue to exceed the expectations of your role and responsibilities and not receive a raise for your hard work and stellar performance. It is time for you to grab what should be yours. In today’s episode, we show you how to stop accepting your worth and start requesting your worth.

May 03, 2020 19: Handling A Fam-esis: Toxic Family Members
Since we are Full-Time Black Woman we wanted to hit on some personal issues that may be going on your lives. Have you ever had to deal with being around a family member who has always been a nuisance in your life? However, you may feel obligated to be around said individual to keep the peace within the family at family gatherings. Family gatherings are becoming rare occurrences nowadays as people move away and families grow. You try to be the bigger person to ensure younger generations build bonds with their kind. However, a fam-esis has the power to change positive vibes within seconds, the entire mood has changed from pure joy to uneasiness. If you can relate to the above situation, you my friend, have a fam-esis.
What is a fam-esis? FTBW defines a fam-esis as a toxic nemesis who shares your DNA or is an extension of your family such as an in-law or a family associate. A fam-esis makes it their goal to intentionally harm you, spread gossip about you and offend you regularly. They get a sick high out of your discomfort because deep down inside there is something about you, they wish they had. You have constant disagreements with your fam-esis, no matter the topic of discussion. The blatant ongoing manipulation or abuse is usually under the radar of fellow family members because they either don’t care or are oblivious to the nasty tactics of this menace. Family is supposed to be our safe haven from the craziness in the world. Unfortunately, families aren’t perfect and there are issues. The commonality of family makes distancing yourself from your fam-esis almost impossible.
