    Ep. 65: Finding Your Purpose (LIVE)

    Last week I decided to do a random episode on FB Live and record it. After attending a conference Saturday, I was so inspired and wanted to share that inspiration with you.     One of the top questions millennials (young and old) are asking ourselves is “What is my purpose?”  We know that we are not where we used to be, but also that we are not where we want to be either. It’s hard feeling like your stuck in a place that doesn’t give you any fulfillment.     Today we’re talking about what it really takes to find your purpose and create the kind of life you deserve.   We’ll Discuss: The role of authenticity in purpose fulfillment Why you are struggling to find your purpose How your facade is preventing you from building a support network Announcements Check out Heart 2 Heart w/ Latrice Sampson Richards at https://www.blackmarriedfly.com/heart2heart   Most Recent Post: “How to Find a Real One”   This episode is brought to you by: Audible This month I’m listening to The Underground Railroad by Colson Whitehead.   Get your free download and 30-day trial of Audible here: www.audibletrial.com/unicornstalk/   The Black Unicorn Project Come see what’s new at www.theblackunicornproject.com   Join My FREE FB Group, Trust Village: Trust Village: A Safe Place for Healing and Manifestation.

    Mardi Gras is officially behind us and the Lenten season has come.  Christians believe that you are supposed to give something up as a replication of the sacrifice Jesus made for the 40 days he spent in the desert. Most people give up tangible things like cold drinks or candy, but this year, I would like for you to consider giving up something that will have a much more meaningful impact on your life. So, today, we’re gonna talk about 4 things you should give up for lent that will help you along your personal journey of healing and manifestation.   We’ll discuss: How and why your feelings are always valid The benefit of letting go of toxic people and relationships Relieving yourself of the expectations of others Allowing others to take responsibility for their shit This episode is brought to you by: Audible My March book selection is “The Underground Railroad” by Colson Whitehead.

    Ep. 62: Standing Naked In The Mirror

    Every week I get naked for ya’ll.  I strip away my fears and allow myself to be vulnerable because I know that you need me to.  I truly believe in the power of sharing our stories with each other, especially the stories that make us feel uncomfortable.  So, yes, I do this for you. But in reality, I do it for me more than anything. Getting naked, is a surefire way to see yourself in your purest, most raw form- literally and figuratively.  For many, the idea of nakedness evokes a fear that they are not sure they can handle. Today, we are talking about how to confront that fear, get comfortable with being naked, and strengthen your relationship with yourself and others. We’ll discuss: How the fear of being naked affects our relationships The benefit of shedding your clothes The steps involved in truly getting naked This episode is brought to you by: Audible My March book selection is “The Underground Railroad” by Colson Whitehead.

    Ep. 61: Black Love w/ Bro Shack

    #Blacklove can be a complicated, and joyful topic.   I’m excited to see it moving into the mainstream cultural conversation through shows like “Black Love” on Oprah’s OWN network. Still, I think the conversation needs to be expanded to include not only heterosexual romantic relationships, but also the ways that we love ourselves and each other on a daily basis. Today, Im talking with Bro Shack, one half of True Love Movement, to discuss what it means to love and be loved as a Black person. We do a deep-dive into the cultural history of blackness and the ways slavery has impacted our understanding of what it means to love others, but maybe more importantly, what it means to love ourselves. Bro Shack brings a deep love for the Black community to the show, and his takes on the multi-generational blocks to self-love have a lot to offer the current cultural conversation around blackness. We’ll discuss: Why it’s critical to understand the cultural legacy of slavery and the way it manipulated Black people into unhealthy love patterns The concept of unconditional love and whether or not we should pursue it Core vs PRN people in your life Disassociation and how it impedes self-love Working through the differences between your ego and your true self Gentleness and how it relates to “tough love”   Connect with Bro Shack: Website: www.truelovemovement.com IG: @truelovemovement Twitter: @tlmhr YouTube: The True Love Movement Hour   This episode is brought to you by: Audible This month I’m listening to “Shook One”, by Charlamagne tha God. It is a very interesting perspective on anxiety in the black community.   Get your free download and 30-day trial of Audible here: www.audibletrial.com/unicornstalk/ The Black Unicorn Project Come see what’s new at www.theblackunicornproject.com  Join My FREE FB Group, Trust Village: Trust Village: A Safe Place for Healing and Manifestation. Join Trust Village FB Group here!

    Ep. 60: All Things Counseling

    Did you know that counselors complete at least three thousand hours of direct and indirect experience before they’re fully licensed? It’s a complicated journey, but I’ve always been fascinated by why and how people do the things they do, so it’s totally worth it.   Pretty much everywhere I go someone wants to talk about my work. Once they find out I’m a counselor they end up telling me all about their lives and their personal struggles. Some may find this difficult to deal with, but it’s part of the job; and I LOVE IT!!   I also get approached by those who are interested in beginning a career in the helping professions themselves.  The same questions come up over and over, so today, I’m going to answer all of those questions once and for all.   If you are looking at a career in the counseling industry, thinking about seeing a therapist and need to know what to look for, or just want to make sure I know what I’m talking about, this episode is for you!   We’ll discuss: My personal journey into the counseling industry General requirements for licensure including educational paths The difference between Counselors, Social Workers, Psychiatrists, and Psychologists The transition from counseling to coaching, and The reality of making money in the helping professions   This episode is brought to you by: Audible This month I’m listening to “Shook One”, by Charlamagne tha God.
