  • 32: [EDUCATION] What it Means to Be A Happy Hustler 🌻

    Have you ever wondered what the term "happy hustler" even means?! This is a term I coined myself during one of the busiest, most chaotic time in my life. I was working three jobs, going to grad school, and had a life I was trying to live. This is what I called myself and something I am teaching you how to live day in and day out this month!

  • 31: [STORYTIME] How I Stay Positive, Even in the Most Negative Situations

    My life motto? If you ain't laughing, you cryin', and crying does nothing but exhaust you and ruin your makeup.

    Okay, so that's a little extreme but it is something I tell myself when life gets hard. This year, 2021, has been a DOOZY for me personally and have put me in situations I never thought I would be in. One thing I keep coming back to though is this: tough situations are going to happen, but one thing that always makes them a little more bearable is laughter and fun. In today's episode, I am sharing some personal stories from my life to show you how I stay positive, even when life is really, REALLY testing me.

    Happy Wednesday dudes & happy HYPE GIRL CHAT episode! I freaking LOVE these episodes because I get to send you some fire and hype for you to get up and get after it no matter what!

    We are continuing our series on FEAR this month and today I am sending you a little bit of encouragement if you are feeling fearful today.
