Rest is a right. It took me a long time to figure it out. And both rest and sleep must occur for optimal health and wellness. During this podcast, we will explore the seven types of rest and how to prioritize rest and sleep.

During this episode, we will explore the importance of doing an ongoing personal audit. Our cars need tune-up, we go to annual check-ups each year, and you get performance appraisals at work, but how are you performing as the author of your own life? Listen in to learn the components of a personal audit and why it’s so important.

Over the last few weeks, as I’ve come front and center with the complete and total disrespect of so many leaders that I admire, it has gotten me just as curious about hate as I’ve been about love, joy, and peace. During this episode, we won’t talk in generalizations or hypotheticals, we will talk about real people, real moments, and the hypocrisy of hate.

Imagine sitting at home doing your usual morning ritual and you are faced with a heaping dose of social media keyboard cowards. The kind of keyboard cowards that post your father’s obituary as a way to discredit his blackness in order to discredit yours. That’s a lot of work and energy to achieve an unsophisticated insult. You may be asking yourselves, what did you? The answer is simple: Nothing. I implemented an energy budget at the beginning of 2024, and I am thankful that I’ve already gotten this prime opportunity to put it to such good use. There is nothing more amazing when your haters are actually helpers! In this episode we will explore the silence strategy, what it gets you, and why I’m sleeping like a baby because of it.

You’ve made those goals, you strategically placed those vision boards in plain view, and you have picked your word of the year. We are on day eleven of the new year and you are already missing the mark on your goals. Why? You are human, but more importantly, you didn’t spend enough time exploring how you will be implementing all that you said you would do. Exhale. Regroup. Recover. Now, tune in to this episode to reset the way forward to implementation and success.

We are off and running in 2024 and within a few short days, some of you have already gone from hopeful to nopeful. Society pushes us to believe that our first plan, our first round, our first try has to be perfect, great, solid, and right. It doesn’t. As a matter of fact, another chance can be amazing, a plan B can be epic, and walking into new beginnings can be ever so powerful. In a few days I’m heading to the second chance wedding of a good friend, can’t even imagine what life would have looked like if she didn’t embrace when another chance arrived at her doorstep.
