Less shit & stress- my real #1 tip
LOVE FIERCELY BECAUSE THIS ALL ENDS!
​
When you are finished on earth
and this is all said and done —-the stuff you want people to speak about you
and say about you
And SPREAD & CARRY ON ABOUT YOU
and share and inspire & tell & CARRY ON TO other people & the world about you....

🧡Is that you were LOVING.

🧡They remember your smile
the way you made them feel EVERY. DAMN. TIME.
the way your eyes and face lit up & made them feel love.
The way you spoke and treated and helped and inspired and supported and encouraged and loved loved loved EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
In every area of your life!

🧡In your walk
in your words
How you hugged
And kissed
And talked
And LISTENED & CARED
and your love language and
your presence and your being
And in the way that you showed up in the world!

🧡As an aunt and an uncle
and a husband and a wife
and a friend
and parent
And grandparent and
Brother and sister
And AS A STRANGER...the kind of impact as a person you were & are!

🧡You always chose LOVE. 🧡

It is not how hard you worked
it’s not how much money you made
it’s not the climbing of the ladder and titles you had
it’s not how many fucking cars golf carts and boats & vacations you took & had
it’s not the school that you went to
Or how much you recycled or the hours you clocked.
It wasn’t the scale and the size of your pants
and how fucking cool you made sure everyone knew you were
Or even any of your triumphs or successes...

It’s not any of the superficial DAILY STRESSFUL ILLUSIONS
we get caught up in—-every single day.
All of us.
There are webs of them!!

that is what stresses us.

One little stress to next stress to massive created stress, & every single person participates every single day.

You can minimize it
you can cut back on it
You can release it
and you can choose differently!

🧡LOVE.
Be profoundly deeply passionately LOVING!
Be motivated and empowered to love more and love yourself more
And Choose love & SHOW UP + radiate love!

🧡 because this all ends.
Love is the one thing that is triple Fold & that is a trailblazer and ignites and continues ON FIRE!🧡

Be that.
When you can wrap your heart and mind around this —everything changes!

Peace!! That’s my truth!! 👏🏽💋💯

🔥LESSON:
-Practice creates confidence.-
Yes, like j-lo, Rihanna type bad-ass confidence!!!
Jay Z is a great example.
He did a huge ass deal with the NFL.
first ever, for an artist!
HUGE.
He is a hustler and a business person FIRST.
Will he advocate? Black lives matter? Support taking a knee? Affect the culture of how it’s all white men owners? Bring change + new perspective?
Yes 1000%.
Will he Put his artists as performers at halftime, and get royalties? Yesssss.
But his first value is business/profit.
The rest of his purpose will branch from that.
Day in & out he practices business moves FIRST.
It’s familiar & consistent and makes him confident. Everything else can branch from that.
🔥YOU:
If you work out every day
if you are always in business meetings + having to speak in front of people
if you teach kids every day
if you’re a stay at home parent who is not around adults and you’re always in mommy mode & kid language
If you spend tons of time with your kids and are in tune with their soul
If you wear make up every single day
Whatever your job is, you do it day in and day out
If you cook + bake daily
If you create you tube videos or
🔥Whatever, DOING “IT” is,
you do it day in and day out.
🔥you get comfortable with it and it creates practice and consistency which then creates confidence!!
TAKEAWAY:
1-The deal is, DO NOT COMPARE one of your phases/seasons with some one else’s!
Let’s say a CEO mom and a stay at home mom.... that conversation can have a different energy to it because of what they’re saying/doing/practicing all day.
I have done both.
As stay a home mom, i have had conversations where my brain is mush and I can’t form sentences and I think to myself- I usually can bust out business law and eloquent words on the back of my hand & SLAY, where Is that?? Where did I go?? I feel cray-cray! {it is normal of course!}
As a business owner & working 24-7... it has gotten to points where I’m saying & doing work lingo & actions day in & out, that I repeat it in my sleep!
ANOTHER EXAMPLE:
Someone who dances every day for fun and someone that never does it. Put them both on the spot and one’s going to be super confident + one’s going to feel like a deer out of headlights.
🔥~Practice creates confidence!!!~
The repetition of it—leads to momentum—-leads to confidence!
🖤So let’s get deeper:
-I’m sure there’s a lot of things you do day in and day out and you’re pretty secure in it!!!!-
•Can you openly and honestly and confidently talk about your TRUE feelings and TRUTH OF your relationships with your family and your spouse/partner and your friends and your kids and with yourself?
•Can you express and talk about your superpowers and yourself self love?
•What is your body talk like? Body image voice?
•Can you talk openly about your healing or wounds or hardships or frustrations? {so many hide this stuff}
•Can you share confidently and securely —your story and journey?
🔑DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU F&CKING CRAVE/NEED/WANT....and need to get on it, and start doing it & PRACTICING IT!?🔑
🔥TODAY
1-explore what you super-duper crave THAT gives you excitement + insane joy & feel like you are LIVING YOUR MOST TRUE & authentic + out loud LIFE—--
name 3 RIGHT NOW? G O
2-start PRACTICING IT! to gain MORE confidence & momentum, so your growth & life is always next level & better!
3-different seasons/phases have different experiences and you get to choose what you’re putting your energy + practice into! It can change!
💋It might be a handstand!
💋It might want to change an old conditioned/limited belief that doesn’t serve your highest good!
💋it might be cooking versus eating out.
💋it might be learning positive self & body talk.
WHATEVER.
4- when you worry about keeping up with people, doing what everyone does in the same way, or care what others think of you and your choices/life--you are allowing People, places and things to live RENT FREE IN YOUR head.
Stop. That. Shit.
YOU ARE THE BOSS OF YOU!
You don’t need permission to take life + jump IN & practice whatever it is you want more of in your life!
🖤Mondays are magical because YOU choose your attitude + energy and thoughts + actions and they set the tone for your week!!!
What will you choose today?
🖤Work with me

you see how that Moorehouse College billionaire guy is paying off all student debt for 2019 graduates??

There was a guy in 2018 that got really REALLY sick and had it really hard and felt like he was behind on his dreams and his purpose and finances & in his life—--

But guess what?

instead of graduating in 2018 like HE planned—-he 

Graduated in 2019 and he’s getting his entire debt paid off!! 

Takeaway:

All of our pain and suffering plus our blessings and joy HAVE a spiritual rhythm to it and SOUL PHASES & life phases + supernatural divine timing is a real thing!!👏🏽✌🏽❤️🎉🎈

🌿 Music memory motivation!

This is one of my favorite motivational tips!

-Think of a memory, in any aspect of your life, that gives you PRIDE about who you are + brings up good feelings!!

-Think of a song that correlates with it!!

-Use that song on repeat during your workout or in your day TO UP YOUR ENERGY LEVELS!

Example:

•Ariana Grande just brought *NSYNC  onto the stage at Coachella!! (Also Puff Daddy + Mase which was bad ass!! 

Anyway there was no Justin Timberlake 😛😛😛 

so JC Chavez {who was the original lead singer and best dancer in the group, got to thrive + bust out his shit and it was his time!}

This all reminded me of their song “dirty pop”. 

•We used to listen to it before we would go to high-level industry parties, where I would go to the front and FAKE IT, to get us into these restricted high-security celebrity events + we were NOT on the list!!

•That song and that memory reminded me of how on the fly, driven resilient, ballsy, brave creative, and bad ass I WAS to always figure a way, to GET US IN!

•So I recently downloaded it 🎉+ literally listened to it on repeat for 35 minutes + had the craziest workout ever!!!! 

•I had My heart rate + pace high-level the entire time because of that memory making me feel empowered!!

•I’m in a different phase of my life now AKA, kids, parenting, sacrifice, to do lists, next level biz & early bedtimes....I need REAL DEAL USABLE INSPIRATION!!

those memories, music + THAT tool,  helps bring that enthusiasm * high energy *drive + *HELL YES TO aspects of my day! 

🌿What memory do you have with a song?

Maybe was Childhood? High school? First party?

Maybe you did something brave and got in the car and a song came on? 

First concert? 

1-identify the song

2-remember the pride and inspiration and authenticity about YOURSELF, that you felt

3- get that song NOW

4-starting thINKING of those motivational feelingS & let them flood thru you!

5- use it!!
