They say slow and steady wins the race, but honestly, I just want to get to the finish line. Still, I’m learning that the foundation you build today determines the success you sustain tomorrow. So, let’s talk about the grind, the setbacks, and why I refuse to give up—even when it feels like nothing’s moving fast enough.

Welcome back to Let’s Try This Again! I’m your host, B. Simone, and today, we’re talking about the real work that goes into building something lasting. From the rollercoaster of launching the LTTA app—yes, it’s been a journey—to the challenges of rebranding B. Simone Beauty..

So if you’ve ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of big dreams, or if you’re struggling to stay motivated, this one’s for you. So grab your coffee (or wine, no judgment) and let’s dive in.

Hey, LTTA family.

It’s your girl, B. Simone, and on this episode of Let’s Try This Again I’m joined by my longtime friend, the hilarious authentic and talented… LightSkinKeisha. We talk about her journey from viral Vine videos to killing it as a rapper, actress, wife, and new mom. 

We also dive into knowing when to bet on yourself, and why it’s okay to let go of people who don’t support your growth. Keisha shares what it felt like to hit rock bottom, and how God + a no-nonsense attitude keeps her grounded.

If you’ve ever felt stuck or scared to take a leap of faith, this one’s for you. Plus, we’re cutting up as usual—cuss words and all (sorry, y’all, we’re working on it)! Tune in for laughs, lessons, and a little motivation to chase your dreams.

Let’s try this again, and again, and again… ✨

Hey, LTTA family.

This week, I had an epiphany in therapy…

I'm codependent! 

I always thought, “That’s not me,” but turns out, it’s a little more complicated than I realized. 

In this episode, I’m sharing my journey of recognizing those patterns, where they might have come from, and how I’m trying to break free. But honestly, I’m still figuring it out. So, I’m asking you to join me in this—are you the fixer? The one leaning on others? Or maybe somewhere in between?

Luckily I'm continuing to strengthen my discernment and I must say, I’ve been super proud of the growth I’ve made in this area of my life.

How are you doing?

What was your mom’s childhood like? What’s your father’s birth story? Did your parents know their grandparents? Where did they get their first job?

This is your sign TO ASK YOUR FAMILY QUESTIONS while you still have the opportunity! 

It might shock you to know how similar you might be to family members you might’ve never met, or the closeness you may feel after learning a bit more about a distant family member

It’s been nice to heal my inner child and enjoy spending time with my family again. However, when you grow in one area, it doesn't always mean you grow in another. Towards the end of episode I share a story that snatched me into old habits that I'm working very hard to outgrow.

I love a full circle moment! 

They’re a nice reminder that I am exactly where I need to be, the investments I have made are worth it, and that it is all going to work out in the end.  

Today, I’m joined by business manager and consultant Jaz and curly hair specialist,  Monica and we talk about the fear and uncertainty associated with an investment (07:00). We also talk about why it’s important to be protective of your big dreams around small dreamers or worse yet, DREAM KILLERS (25:00), and what keeps us rooted in an idea that we haven't yet seen the fruit from. 

My friends remind me about a manifestation I spoke into my life 15 years ago that I totally forgot about (38:00), and we end the episode with a game that Jaz and I call “The Manifestation Game”. 

I'm challenging you all to play the game with your friends and to leave your manifestations in the comments so I can play with yall! 45:00)

Heyyyyyy LTTA Family!

This week’s episode is special because i’m joined by two women who have been by my side for 15+ years, Monica and Camielle

Monica is a curly hair specialist who always gracefully came to my rescue when we worked at the hair salon together, and I'd constantly overbook myself (ALL MONEY IN- OKAY!). People would come in and I'd be working on 3 different heads, but you better believe I'd tell that person. “Of course, I’ll be right with you, take a seat” 

Camielle and I were in a girl group together, she was there when I manifested going viral on instagram before going viral was even a thing. 

We even made money go-go dancing at some point (more about that on the next episode!) 

These two join me 15+ years later from where we met to talk about their expectations vs. the reality of parenting 2 kids (20:00), balancing business and motherhood (30:00), reconnecting with God (46:00), and dating intentionally (50:00).

" You cannot possess people, you can only experience them.”

Hey LTTA Fam! 

This week, I shared how a hurtful argument with my sister sparked an epiphany that changed our relationship forever. She constantly teaches me that what I want for others and what they want for themselves doesn’t always align. I learned the importance of showing up like a SISTER instead of a MOTHER and I had to take accountability for being controlling, even if it was rooted in love. 

You can expect to hear:

(4:00) The moment I realized that I am a sibling, and NOT a parent 

(8:00) The text message exchange that resulted in the silent treatment for weeks

(9:00) The importance of letting people FEEL their emotions vs. FIXING their emotions

(12:00) The moment I realized “OMG, I’m controlling” 

(15:00) UNTETHERING my identity with the Savior Complex

(17:00) Learning to ask someone “How do you need me to show up for you in this stage of your life”

(20:00) The impact my public platform has on my sister’s privacy 

(23:20) “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?” - Mathew 7:3 

Hope this episode inspires you to restructure any relationships you thought about while listening to this week’s episode. If you know a friend can relate- SEND THIS TO THEM!

FEEL.... DEAL...AND THEN...HEAL!

We can't get to the HEALING without the first two steps, trust me... I've tried!!!

This week, I'm joined by my girlllll (and neighbor) Bria whom God brilliantly wielded at just the right moment during this episode recording. The power of community and sisterhood continues to prove itself more powerful than any self-doubt or momentary absence of confidence- THANK GOD!

This episode was a reminder that:

1) I'm gonna cry on this podcast and ya'll might as well grab a tissue too!

2) True confidence is understanding that you have flaws, accepting them, and still wanting more for yourself

3) I am not my emotions; and everyone, and I mean EVERYONE should read the book "The Untethered Soul" by Alan Singer

4) Healing isn't linear, and setbacks aren't failures
