"Ships" and Giggles

We have a hard time asking for what we want! There are so many reasons why. Making asking makes you feel vulnerable or you don't think that the person will say yes. Many of us are afraid of actually hearing yes and getting what we want...then what? Some of are not even sure of what we truly want in order to ask for it. 
We explore those areas and the reasons why it may be hard for us to ask for what we truly want...or should I say NEED in some cases. 
Asking for what we want takes courage and it involves some level of risk. The more we have to lose, the harder it seems to muster up the courage to ask for it.  
When we approach any request, whether it is our own or someone has a request for us, no matter what the outcome, we win when we have an open heart and a growth mindset. We learn and we grow either way.

Friendships are some of the most import relationships we will have in life. We have to be selective about who we call a friend and know how to protect the relationship once it is established. Jalen and I talk about things that make it hard for us to maintain a friendship and call it healthy. 
What are some of your dealbreakers and issues that make it hard for you to want to continue a friendship? Come and have a listen to the generational similarities and differences in our relationship challenges. 

Mom and I get transparent and tell you about the things that we have started in the past and didn't finish. We talk about why it is easy to abandon things that we start and how easy it is to do. When have to really think about the things that we want to do ignorer to know if we are really going to dedicate our time and energy to them in order to see them through. We talk about motivation and what it takes to finish. Well, not just finish, but to complete the things that we begin. 

We all had a rollercoaster ride in 2020! We are talking about the good we experienced along with the things that we plan to bring forward...and those we wanted to leave behind but somehow snuck in to 2021. 

We sit down and look forward to some spring cleaning. It is a new year and many people are making resolutions, setting goals, and focusing on having a certain feeling or a "word' that will take them through the year. What do you need to clean out? Is it your home, car, workspace...your mind or relationships? 

What ever it is that you are planning to do this year to make things better in your life, we encourage you to see it through. Keep your focus and win! Because you can and if you believe that, you will.

Come sit with us as we talk about what areas of our lives we look forward to making better and the things that could get in the way of doing just that. 

We are bringing in the new year talking about movies that have change the course of our thinking...or lives in general. We touch on what made us laugh, what inspired us to creativity, or what motivated us to love differently. We all have a few movies that just stick to us. We almost feel like if it hadn't been for that movie, things would be a little different in our lives. Come laugh with us and have a light-hearted conversation about some of our favorites.v 

We are wrapping up the year talking about our highs and lows for the year. Although overall this year has been absolutely crazy, we have been blessed to have a lot of light shine in our family. We have had opportunities to sit and spend time with the people we have chose to love and some that we gave birth to and had no choice. We have pick up new hobbies and let go of bad habits. listen up as we laugh, shed a tear or two, and say goodbye to 2020 and welcome and look forward to the good in 2021.  

We got together to wish you all a Very Merry Christmas! We talk about our favorite gifts, what makes this time of year special to us and what makes us sad about this time of year. In a year that has made it hard for families to get together and have the holiday that they desire, we tackle the year and remind ourselves and you that there are still things to be grateful for. We still have to remember the reason for the season! 

In this episode, we tackle letting go and how it makes us feel. Endings do not define who we are, nor do they predict what our future relationships will look like. 

We talk about what it felt like for us to let go of things and people that we thought we would have forever, or at least a great amount of time. We learned that any thing or relationship that feels forced or harder than it really should be was not for us and we either needed to place boundaries in the relationship or let them go completely. 

Some people think that holding on to things and people makes them stronger but you may actually become stronger letting go of those things and/or people that do not serve good to your spirit. 

So, let go of your past, your mistakes, self-doubt, failures, fears, insecurities, and oh yes, people, if you must! 

We sat down to talk about our mistakes and what we have learned from them. Mistakes are not to be resented. It shows that we have tried and we take with us into the future the knowledge and wisdom we need to win. 

The mistake that we make do not define us, they define the moment. We have an opportunity to learn from them and go deeper into who we are and live our lives fully
