    Episode 15: Being a Mom

    What Motherhood has Taught Me. I am going to mess up and that's ok.  I don't know everything and that's ok.  I need help and that's okay.  Being a mother is the most rewarding and overwhelming titles you can hold. I wanted to share some of the things that I have learned over the past 4 years with you all for someone who may need it. I am new to this but believe in such a short time I have learned the importance of asking for help, being present in the moment and not stressing over things. I was one of those mom's who that I had to do everything on my own but I quickly became stressed out so I had to learn to lean more on other people and be willing to ask for help because most people don't know you need help unless you say something. I am forever evolving as a mother but I just wanted to share what I have gone through that taught me a very valuable lesson.

    Episode 14: Becoming a Mom

    The road to motherhood was not an easy one for me. I went through some issues with conceiving, was told I'll never be able to have kids and almost gave up when I found out I was pregnant.... It's been a rollercoaster but I've been enjoying the ride. With all the ups and downs that comes with being a mom, I wouldn't trade it for the world.

    Episode 12: Moving Past Fear

    Are you afraid of something? Not the known like water, heights or dogs. I am talking about fear of the unknown. Fear of going after what you want in life. Fear of starting that business because you may fail. Fear of leaving that toxic relationship because no matter how bad it is, at least it's known and predictable. Fear of applying for that job you really want.  Well I know that fear all too well. I have let the fear of the unknown crapple me so much in life that I am fed up with fear. I am tired of not trusting or believing in myself to see something through because I might fell. Hell what is failure anyway. In 2019 I am putting fear behind me and going for everything I want in life unapologetically because I owe it to myself. It is my home that this episode inspires you as well to no longer live in fear and make a conscious effort everyday to go after the things that you want in life and face fear head on. Also 2 podcast that I want to highlight this week are from 2 of my college friends. Ms. LaQuisha Nelson: Black Girl Abroad and Ms. Derreka Shelton with Black Rose Educators #TeachersHappyHour. Head over and check them out as well. They have some excellent content. Ms. Nelson discusses her experience with living abroad and Ms. Shelton looks to assist new and seasoned teachers with navigating  their roles as advocates for the kids.

    Episode 10: Happy New Year!

    Happy New Year!! I just wanted to create a quick podcast to check in with my Jes Liv Family. I haven’t forgot about you all, there has just been a lot going on and a lot in the works. It is important to be that I am speaking on topics that are prevalent to what’s going on and over the past few weeks between the holidays, me being sick and deciding I needed some me time to rest and just be, I hadn’t had time to get around to recording a podcast. Jes being real, lol. But no seriously, I have been brainstorming on what I want to do for the new year and I am working on creating a series and inviting guest on to speak about those topics for each specific topic. I have been procrastinating because it requires me to get out of my comfort zone and just ask, I am afraid they will say no, even though I know they probably won’t, I know what you’re thinking, that’s crazy right… But it’s my truth and one of my flaws I am working through. So I have 3 series that I am looking into working on 1) Health & Wellness- Speaking on the importance of taking care of your overall physical, mental and spiritual self. 2) What About Your Friends- speaking on the importance of having strong people in your corner and also inviting my 3 besties on to speak on the evolution of our friendships and what they have going on.3) Boss Women- A discussion on women who are doing their thing in their business. What inspired them to do and I they keep going). So even though I am delayed with posting a podcast, I am still working behind the scene to provide you all with great content to you all. I have also created a Linktree, Youtube Channel and Instagram account specifically for my podcast so make sure you all subscribe. Thanks for all the love and support, I truly appreciate it.  Linktree: https://linktr.ee/jeslivepodcast Instagram: @jeslivpodcast

    Episode 8: Forgive and let it go!

    As the year comes to a close and you are gearing up for the new year and setting New Year resolutions, It is important that you work in letting go of the things you did or didn’t do in the past and forgive those who wrong you and forgive yourself for letting yourself at times. In this week’s podcast, I am discussing the importance for forgiveness and letting go. You don’t want to go into the New Year with baggage from the past. Carrying the weight of holding on to a grudge, being angry, upset or bitter from things that happened in the past will do you more harm than good. Holding onto the Should’ves, Would’ves, and Could’ves , and What If’s of life will literally drive you crazy and stunt your growth. Thinking of everything you could’ve done. As you replay in your mind every detail you could’ve changed, every word you should’ve said, every action you may have done if you would’ve known “xyz.” Just let it go and free yourself of that burden. No one is perfect and we all make mistakes, but it is important to remember that as you press forward with your new goals. How do you work on forgiving yourself and others? • First you have to acknowledge the pain of the situation. Some of us are so in denial of things and suppress situation that we don’t want to even deal with forgiveness because the situation is too raw and painful to deal with. • Own your emotions. Rather the situation made you angry, upset, made or hurt. You need to acknowledge those emotions in order to be able to properly deal with them, • Release the expectations you have of righting the wrong that was done to you. It happened, nothing you can do will change what took place, and all you can do is release yourself for holding onto the getting justice….. I heard one of n “The Oprah Winfrey speak on forgiveness. She stated that, Forgiveness is letting go so that the past does not hold you prisoner.” She noted that, Forgiveness is giving up hope that the past could have been any different. • Be mindful of your boundaries so that the situation does not occur again. You cannot control what a person will do to you but you can control your thoughts and action so whether it’s with a significant other, family or yourself. You have to let it be known that I will never allow myself to be put in this situation again because I love myself too much. • Forgiveness does not mean reconciliation. Is just simply freeing yourself from being bound by the thought of what happened. • Show kindness and compassion. We are not perfect, give yourself a break for making a mistake and give others a break as well. Yes some people intentionally do things to you, but half of the time, they don’t know any better. They have not learned how to deal with their feelings so they lash out and hurt others because they are hurt. We all are unpacking or own things from the past and learning how to deal with life so have more compassion and patient with people. These tools will help you release the hurt and move forward into the new year being a new and better version of yourself by not letting what happened to you define you but build you into your greatness, knowing that everything that has happened to you, the good bad and ugly has shaped and molded you into the person that you are today.

    Episode 9: 2018 Wrap Up & Setting 2019 Intentions

    Can you believe that 2018 is almost over? Only a couple of days left until the New Year is upon us. What did you accomplish in 2018, are their things that you are still working on from 2018 or let fall by the wayside? How can you better prepare to see complete your goals for 2019. This week I will give a quick wrap up on the things that I accomplished and let slip in 2018 and what intentions I have already started to work on for 2019 (which I am both excited and anxious about) and will see them through. We will also discuss some barriers that people typically run into when setting goals, or what I have now replaced with the word “intentions,” and also discuss 4 simple tools that will help you follow through on your intentions that you set out. Thank you Jes Live listeners for coming along on this journey with me. As I have discussed previously, this was something that I talked about for a while but was living in fear and doubt. In September after much hesitation and contemplation, I decided to go for it and man has it been an exciting and learning experience for me. It is my intentions to grow my podcast in so many ways in 2019 by expanding my podcast to invite guest, co-host to the show and add a live video recording podcast as well as so much more. I hope that you continue along this journey with me and I hope that I have enlightened you in some way shape form or fashion to get out of your own way and Jes Live.
