  • Embracing A New You Before The New Year

    A fresh start isn’t a new place. It’s a new mindset.

    ~Author Unknown~

    As time passes, the new year is vastly approaching, but before the new year comes, this is a perfect time to take inventory of what you desire for an upcoming year. We often recycle an old version of ourselves, expecting the year to be different. However, the glimmer of a new year is contingent upon a new you enveloping a new mindset, habits & choices. In this episode, I discuss ways you can uplevel your thoughts and create a new you before the new year.

  • How To Become Emotionally Available For Yourself

    "Be faithful to that which exists within yourself." ~Andre Gide~


    For many years, I attracted friends and men who were emotionally unavailable, not understanding how much I was unavailable for myself. Although I was ready to commit to others, I was not committing to the most vital person in my life, which was ME. As years passed, I created a sacred space that nurtured self-love, self-worth, and self-compassion. And I am still on this journey to allow room to express my emotions. In this episode, I am discussing essential ways in which you can create a space for your emotional well-being and set yourself free from suppressing your real feelings.

  • Don't Give Up On Your Dreams

    “Follow your dreams, believe in yourself, and don’t give up.”

    ~Rachel Corrie~

    Everyone has a different path in life; what works for someone else may not work for you. It is essential to figure out what you desire to do in life. Having a perspective on your vision makes it easier to execute your dreams. However, we often allow external noise to discourage us from our dream life. In this episode, I discuss the importance of regaining your main character's energy and pursuing your dreams without looking for external validation.

  • Creating Soft Surroundings

    “Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place.” ~Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.~


    For the last few months, I have been on an intimate journey of letting go of hardship, embracing softness, and creating my definition of what a soft life looks like for me. As a black woman in America, I know how we have settled for society's stereotypical ideas of black women carrying the load. However, I realize how often I embrace the idea of always being the strong one and not understanding the detriment it had on my mental health.

    In this episode, I discuss the importance of defining your idea of a soft lifestyle, figuring out what you need to implement a soothing environment, and creating soft surroundings in a hardcore world.

    In a world full of distractions and glorifying fear, misery, and lack, we must learn to tap into a joy that sustains us through challenging times.

  • Letting Go Of Hardship

    "You deserve to be in environments that bring out the softness in you , not the survival in you." ~Unknown~


    Sometimes, hardship follows us to every season of our lives because we are not ready to let the struggle go. However, when we carry the burden, we self-sabotage our joy. We continue to bring the victim's story to every scene of our lives. Life is a constant suffering until one day, a decision is made to let go of hardship and embrace a softer life. In this episode, I discuss three ways you can let go of resistance, accept where you are, and know you deserve a lighter form of life.

  • Making Over Your Life

    "You are never too old to set another goal or dream a new dream."

    ~C.S. Lewis~

    💕Sometimes, we find ourselves at a crossroads, wondering if pivoting is the best thing to do to start something new. In the last year, I knew I wanted to exit my educational career and try something new. As an educator, it can be demanding and tiresome; however, it has been rewarding to teach for ten years. But I began losing my love for teaching, and saying goodbye was inevitable. In this episode, I discuss my journey in pivoting, embracing new career adventures, and the possibilities of living a life I always dreamed of. 💕

  • Manifesting Your Dream Life Through Writing

    "And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry."

    ~Bible, KJV~


    As a writer, I love to journal my thoughts daily. It is essential to release your thoughts on paper because it can help you organize your thoughts and gain clarity on things in your life. However, in the last year, journaling has become a way that I intentionally write out what I desire for my life. Recently, I flipped through my journal and realized some things I wrote a couple of months ago have manifested in my life. I am in awe of how powerful writing can help you live your dream life. In this episode, I discuss why writing down your vision is essential, the power of faith and manifesting, and a simple way to start the process.
