Uncommon Queens

Hey homies! Happy Fall! In this episode, I discuss why I am excited for this upcoming season and why it doesn't have anything to do with outside circumstances. We have the ability to take note of this year and the opportunities that it's given us for growth. External forces may be unstable but God wants us to suit up and have our internal forces be our shield!

Hey homies! Welcome to Season 2 of the Uncommon Queens podcast! I'm back to give you a tiny update on how my time off was but mostly about the definition of an Uncommon Queen. I felt like I haven't been super clear about who an Uncommon Queen is, so I decided to go more in-depth. I hope we can make the next couple months of 2020 ones to celebrate the small joys of life!

Hey Homies! In this episode, I wanted to switch up my topics and talk about how fun having a relationship with God is. It's not filled with strict rules and regulations, there is a joy experiencing how God orchestrates your life! I just felt like there was a need to express more of how fulfilling of a life is and how He writes a beautiful story SPECIFIC TO YOU! Also, below are some links!

Core Bible Verse: Proverbs 16:3 NLT

Bible Study Section: “Others give God Temporary control of their interests, only to take control back the moment things stop going the way they expect… We must maintain a delicate balance: trusting God as if everything depended on him, while working as if everything depended on us."

Hey Homies! I'M BACK ON THE MIC! In this episode, I talk about what I learned about shame this past week and ways I've decided to push forward. You are capable of stopping the cycle of shame and limiting beliefs and I hope that this episode can shed some light.

Inspiration for this podcast: Matthew 3 

Quote by Priscilla Shirer @priscillashirer

Three Main Questions: Is the shame warranted? How do I want this shame to impact me? What are the limiting beliefs about myself that constantly make me go into this cycle of shame?

How to Implement: Check how shame is creeping into your life. Don't let it sit there, try to open up to someone about it and investigate. Where is your limiting beliefs coming from and is there evidence that shows otherwise? (Do you need to change your environment or friend group?)

Hey homies! In this episode I talk about my struggles with finding my black voice! Am I bold enough? There is so much going on in the media and my past yelling at me out to approach speaking out about racial injustice in one way. This is basically a Part 2 to what I already talked about in previous episodes  but opening up more and more. Basically I'm taking you with me on this journey of uprooting things that don't serve me anymore!

Hey homies! I hope you are continuing to be gentle with yourself in this time of heaviness and overwhelming content!
