Check out last Thursdays episode ‘The fear of Judgement: take your power back and stop caring about what others think’!
I could probably talk about judgement in multiple episodes because it’s such a nuanced topic. Last Thursday we discussed:
• Different types of judgement
• Opinion vs Constructive Criticism vs Neg judgement
• Why you should take things others say with a grain of salt

Happy ! 🖤 While this is a month for celebration, reflection, remembering and education it doesn’t just stop on March 1st. This is 365 day/year reality for black folks so if you are not black, continue to learn, educate and do better this month and every day to follow.. ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿
In this week’s episode, airing this Thursday, we’re talking all about the mind, body and spirit. I really enjoyed filming this episode and it made me realize how integrated and connected these 3 aspects of our being really are.
They all play and dance with each other, and many of us may feel a stronger presence of one over the others in our daily lives. Understanding and strengthening them all can really create the life and wellbeing that we want for ourselves.
Comment down below which one you feel more connected to or ruled by??

IT’S LAUNCH DAY 🥳 Check out our welcome episode: Welcoming you to Indulge in Yourself + the path to Self-Connection !
To get ready for the launch of it’s probably a good idea for us to figure out how we like to express our thoughts 😉
I prefer to journal with a physical journal and pens. It just feels more connected to me. But it’s going to be different for everyone!
It can be hard to use a physical journal on the go, especially if you need to get something out your head and off your chest immediately, so electronic journals and notes can be more convenient. It probably won’t hurt to use a variation of both!
Our podcast will provide lots of opportunities for you to express your thoughts and feelings about numerous topics. After our first episode, you can expect each episode to end with thought provoking questions and prompts for you to connect with yourself.
We’ll get into the importance of journaling and self expression more in the podcast so stay tuned for our first episode coming Tuesday Oct. 3rd!!! 🥳
What does your journaling practice look like? 📝👇🏼

What are some things you try to remember everyday to ground yourself ? 👇🏼💭
Comment down below how you get your creative juices flowing! ⬇️💭
People are not owed your time, energy and business. Be intentional about what you share and give with others.
Make the time 🫶🏼
In the hustle of life, it’s vital to pause and nourish our inner being. This will look different for everyone so here are some tips that might help you explore what that looks like for you!
We can change a lot in all of our relationships if we start paying close attention to the internal monologues we have with ourselves.
u first! 🫶🏼
remember this when you’re comparing your journey with others. we rarely see and discuss the hardships and evolutions we go through in life. because of the lack of conversation we are scared of life and of the journey. we are scared to take leaps. we are scared to fail, even when failure is the key to all of your dreams and desires. it is the lesson and answer.
reintroduce you to you 🫶🏼
comment below your favorite tip !
The more you think about the outcome or finishing something, the more anxiety provoking it can become. You should still dream and get excited about your dreams and have goals but don’t torture yourself thinking about everything you have to do to make it happen right now. You’d be surprised at opportunities and challenges that make can send you in new directions with new ideas. So there’s no way to try to predict the future and figure it all out right now.
One step at a time. One book at a time. One podcast at a time. One page at a time. One conversation at a time. One day at a time. One hour at a time. One minute at a time. One second at a time. Breathe.

Comment below some ways you like to reconnect with yourself! 🫶🏼
It can be really hard sometimes to be authentic and not fall into our false selves when we worry about how others might feel. It’s great to consider others and try your best to make sure the people around you feel good, but not if it’s at your expense and you end up feeling sh*tty.
This can lead to resentment and frustration on your part. If you are acting with love and from a sense of your true self, you can’t be responsible for how that makes people feel. If you really want something or need to do something for yourself and other people can’t understand or feel a certain way about it, that’s not on you. Their feelings are not your responsibility. So do not hide or shrink who you are for the sake of hopefully not making someone else feel bad.
It’s all about intention. Do what’s best for you. Be respectful. Allow others to feel whatever they feel. See what actions are taken next. Evaluate if these are the people who you surround yourself with. Trust yourself.
“We all long for loving community. It enhances life’s joy. But many of us seek community solely to escape the fear of being alone. Knowing how to be solitary is central to the art of loving. When we can be alone, we can be with others without using them as a means of escape” - all about love by bell hooks

In this week’s episode ‘Beyond the Hype: My deep dive into wellness realities,’ I have so much to share about my wellness journey. I thought I’d share this tip because it’s something I’ve struggled with for a long time, especially with anxiety and depression, I became an emotional eater. It’s not a coping mechanism that I want to continue and this is the only thing that’s help curb that at night! It makes a lot of sense when you think about it, my metabolism is up, I feel great mentally after working out and am just overall less hungry. I love ending my day with a workout now, it also gives me an extra boost if I have work I wanted to do at the end of the night.

There’s nothing new about planners and schedules but I was never a planner girlie. I’ve gotten this far without them and always got what I needed to get done done. However, with the demands of life and adulting increasing, I’ve out grown a lot of my systems and it’s been a STEEP learning curve to find my new ones. The visual of my day hourly has been a game charger for me and I only like a physical one. My google calendar was just not hitting the same. The rest of my ins and outs for 2024 are live now on this weeks episode!
