Gaslighting. To be the Gaslighter or to be Gaslighted. That is the real conversation we are having today. And honestly, this is NOT an easy conversation to talk about with you guys. You and I dive into what is gaslighting and recognizing it in FRIENDSHIPS. 

I wanted to talk about this with you because I feel like no matter what season of life we are all in, friendships are all common. Where there is friendship, I am going to be real with you by saying that there is a friend (or maybe few) who knowingly or unknowingly are gaslighters. I talk about the basics of gaslighting, how to recognize it in your friendship circle, and some solutions on how to resolve the toxicity of gaslighting. It does affect a friendship these days and we need to think of ourselves in these types of situations, regardless how long your friendship has been or how much you can trust a person you call your friend.

I wanted to get real with you on this one because this is important in a friendship. I'd love to hear what you guys have to think about this! Always love suggestions you guys bring in to the podcast.

Actions may speak louder than words. We all have experienced that in some shape or form in different seasons in our lives. You may in a season where you are around your friends more than your own family and they have seen you in a way where you know your family will not understand.  The words you use hold more power than you may even realize. Maybe you are in a season where your family is very tight-knit and the closeness bond you have is special that can never be explained. Or you may be in a season where the noise around you is too loud and you just wish you can shut it off with an explanation or a mute button. 

We are here to talk about YOUR WORD. We all have said things great and not so great to people we care about and even to complete strangers. Words stick to people FOREVER. They are tattoos for the soul and the heart (in my opinion). Whether you’re sharing a personal story or simply responding to someone else’s, it’s important to be mindful of word choice because what you say can increase the stigma around mental health, and have an impact on those around you.

We are still in May and this is for those who recently graduated: whether it be college/university, certification of some sort, continuing of education, etc. I know during this time of the year for those moving on to the next step (graduation, job certifications, etc.) there is a lot to process. But I am focusing particularly on my college graduates since I said last week this episode will be geared a little more towards you. 

I wanted to reach out to you during this episode because you might have already walked across the stage during your graduation or you could be in the process in getting ready for graduation! You too should take this time to cherish the moments. I always tell my kids and all of you every day to continuously BE YOURSELF. I will repeat: the generational growth in leadership continues and future leaders are SELF-MADE. All that you do here on out is what is best FOR YOU. The people that care about you will give and tell you opinions and advice all for the benefit FOR YOU. Remember, sometimes it is hard to hear difficult opinions, even if they are true or you just flat out disagree with them. The rollercoaster of failures and successes is how life goes. 

Tune in and I would love to connect with you guys!! Thank you for continuously supporting this podcast!

As we approach May, I know during this time parents are rushing around like headless chickens and students (whether you are in middle school, high school, undergrad or even grad school/continue education), this time of the year leads to something very common: GRADUATION.

My young audience particularly, I wanted to reach out to you during this episode because as we are winding down the school year, take this time to cherish the moments. I always tell my kids and all of you every day to continuously BE YOURSELF. The generational growth in leadership continues and future leaders are SELF-MADE. I get a little deep with you guys in this episode talking about my take in graduation (high school and college), my opinion towards it, and what the next chapter holds. If you are not graduating and just turned 18 or about to turn 18, this episode is also for you because I do get into the next scary thing: ADULTHOOD. Don't worry it's not as scary as you think. 

Tune in and I would love to connect with you guys!! Thank you for continuously supporting this podcast!

Little background on our guest:

She is incredibly passionate about helping you take action when you just don’t know where to begin!

We each go through phases in life where we pick up a hobby, give it some time for enjoyment, and, like many, we stop and either never get back into it or return later on down the line. Each of us are currently in different seasons of life and we own up to where we are at this very time. DJing was not the case for our guest this episode. 

The DJ business alone is its UNIQUE take as it all starts with the DJ themselves. I had the pleasure speaking with Michael Gines, a professional DJ and owner of Perfect Match Entertainment, where we got to break down what makes his DJ business and style different from the rest to how he got started! A husband, father, a son, an uncle, cousin, friend and other hats on top of that, Mike has always been on the go with his creative mind and always thinks outside the box whether it comes to family or his business. This is a conversation you do not want to miss!

We get to break down and have a little heart to heart on this episode my friends! We talk about the fear of rejection and that feeling on when you get out of your comfort zone and it does not go your way. Well as we know, in the fear zone, you will probably lack self-confidence first and foremost. We allow the opinions of others may affect you. Worse yet, they may discourage you. Nevertheless, with your desire to move forward and reach the growth zone, you should just stop for a moment and think about what you are doing and why. This is essential. Stopping to think will allow you to move on to become successful. That is a certainty. You must remain convinced of this.

Doing this mindset shift will allow you to LEARN and GROW every second by letting yourself loose and also be a better version of YOURSELF.

Getting the positivity flowing in our bodies is important and those endorphins tend to slip when we do not stay consistent right?! I got to sit down with my good friend Julia McGlone. Student mentor by day, zumba instructor by night, Julia loves making time to do what she is passionate about everyday alongside the support of her husband and dog. She loves to read, dance, hike, and anything that allows her to get outside.

We talk about how much of an impact Zumba has been in our lives and the outcome of it whether first timers take the class or a consistent weekly student. We also got to the nitty gritty on how important it is to work towards being the best version of yourself and how Zumba has done that in her life as well as other activities that trigger those endorphins in our body.

Such a fun conversation with my good friend and I cannot wait for you guys to listen in!!!
