This brief bonus episode is in honor of my grandmother, Donna Elizabeth Sheares-Key, the woman who kept my spirit alive.  I reflect on my favorite piece of wisdom she passed on to me, "If you like it, I love it."

As a follow-up to last week's episode, today I share practical steps to take in order to train for the fight that is life.

Mentioned in the episode:

Go to anchor.fm/lakeesha-nicole-leonard and send a brief voice message sharing some ways in which you train for the fight that is life. How do you show up to win everyday? How do you ensure life doesn't knock you down and take you out? I look forward to hearing from you!

Life is a lot of things... a dream, a process, a series of commas, a blank canvas, a journey, so on and so forth. Have you considered that life is also a fight? In considering that notion, how well are you training for the fight that is life?

This interview episode is a conversation full of laughter and insight with TWO women's wisdom. I interview my sister-n-law, JaQualia Lynn Leonard - a speaker, author, and the creator of The Productivity Toolkit.  One of JaQualia's taglines is "We create more than just babies".  In this episode we discuss how she makes the most of her day and her gifts, her greatest hurt and how she overcame it,  the value of talking to a therapist, best marriage and parenting advice, and finding  joy in little-big things everyday like the sunrise.

There's the mess that life gives us; then there's the mess that we create. This episode challenges us to take on a more intentional approach to the last 32 days of the year.

Last week's episode, "You, Too, Can Evolve" was tipped more towards the inspirational side. Hopefully you came away from that BELIEVING and READY to do the work!

LaKeesha briefly touches on her childhood and serves as an example that "It's not your fault if you're messed up, but it is your fault if you stay messed up." We can all thrive and be well, but we must do the work.
