  • Episode 74 | What is Workplace Bullying? featuring Zenica Chatman
    Workplace bullying is an ugly reality that can poison the atmosphere and erode the spirit of any workplace. It's a toxic behavior where individuals use their power to intimidate, belittle, or undermine others. Whether it's through verbal abuse, exclusion, or constant criticism, workplace bullying leaves deep scars on the victim's self-esteem and overall well-being. It creates an environment of fear and negativity, stifling creativity and collaboration.
    It's high time we stand up against workplace bullying, fostering a culture of respect, kindness, and empathy, where everyone feels safe and valued. We're taking this conversation head-on with this week's powerful guest, Zenica Chatman.
    Zenica is a certified personal coach helping women rediscover their inner strength in the aftermath of workplace related trauma. Her own journey into coaching began after being left emotionally broken by a pair of workplace bullies at the height of her marketing career.
    She went on a path to redefine her own self worth and what it means to be successful at work. Now as a coach, she’s helped dozens of other women do the same. She helps leaders develop their own unique leadership style and create work environments that are safe and equitable.
    She’s also the creator of an eight-week work detox program, Surviving Corporate, that helps women establish a healthy relationship with work and puts them back into the driver's seat of their careers.
    You can follow Zenica on Instagram, LinkedIn & her website.
    I know there are plenty of us who've experienced some sort of workplace related trauma at one point in our lives. I absolutely love the work that Zenica is doing and how she is turning her own painful experiences around toxic work environments and workplace bullying into an educational platform to help others through their own workplace trauma. Thank you for taking up space and using your voice to take your power back!

  • Episode 73 | Let's Talk About Celibacy with Lianne
    Celibacy... now that's a topic that seems to make everyone a little uncomfortable! It's like we've stumbled upon the ultimate taboo subject at a dinner party. People squirm in their seats, unsure of what to say or how to react.
    Maybe it's because celibacy challenges the traditional belief that love and happiness can only be found in a romantic or sexual relationship. It's like we're saying, "Hey, I don't need all that to be fulfilled!" And that can be pretty f*cking liberating.
    Let's break the ice and give celibacy the light-hearted conversation it deserves! After all, it's a personal choice that allows individuals to focus on self-discovery, personal growth, and finding alternative forms of connection and intimacy. Who's ready to challenge some societal norms!?
    In today’s solo episode, I'm sharing with y’all my journey of practicing celibacy over the past 2 years.
    I talk about:
    ✨How I got started
    ✨Why I even decided to embark on this journey in the first place
    ✨What insight has come to be from completely removing sex and intimacy with another person from my life for the foreseeable future
    I get pretty open & honest during this solo conversation, so sit back, pour up your favorite drank🍹and listen to this juicy and insightful episode😉

It encourages self-care, self-compassion, and resilience, allowing individuals to embark on a transformative journey of healing and growth.

    Dating violence is more common than you may think, especially among teens and young adults: 1 in 3 U.S. teens will experience physical, sexual, or emotional abuse from someone they’re in a relationship with before they become adults. And nearly half (43%) of U.S. college women report experiencing violent or abusive dating behaviors. (source: https://www.loveisrespect.org).

    Listen this week as we discuss warning signs to look out for, WTF is love bombing, our own personal experiences with domestic violence, why it's so important to share your story and tell someone else what's going on and much more.
    I am SO HONORED and so PROUD to know Tasha & call her a Survivor Sister💜for life. She's the epitome of transforming her fear into faith & is committed to helping others along the way of her own healing journey.

  • Episode 67 | Healing Isn't Linear with Lianne
    Time to get vulnerable AF for a minute...
    Many of you know about my past trauma (DV survivor💜for those who don't know... listen to episode 12 for the full story of what I experienced) and healing from that relationship has been (and still is) the hardest thing I'm navigating through.
    Last week, I was triggered by a situation that brought me back to that fight-or-flight mode. I literally felt like my life was in immediate danger all over again (Don't worry, I go into detail during this episode).
    Take a listen as I share what I experienced and the intense thoughts & feelings that came to be. This conversation that I had with myself was a full blown therapy session I didn't know I needed.
    I want this episode to remind y'all that this healing journey (as cliché as it sounds) is NOT linear. There are bad b*tch days & there are sad girl days... The day I recorded this episode was definitely a sad girl day.
    It's okay to have these moments when life be life-ing. We all have trauma we're going through and/or trying to heal from, and I hope by sharing my truths with y'all, you don't feel so alone in your own situation(s).
