  • SELF-IMPROVEMENT

As your self-proclaimed homegirl and new best friend, I check in with you once a week to have a lil bit of girl chat and a whole lot of soul work. Join me in my journey of going through the motions as your average 20-something, with the ultimate goal of seeking and fulfilling purpose. We all need a lil dirt to grow, but it's what you do with it that makes the difference. We're doing the inner work and the soul work to become whole.

  1. I Wanna Forgive You... And I Wanna Forget You

    I Wanna Forgive You... And I Wanna Forget You

    Girrrrrrrrrrl, IYKYK Lauren Conrad dropped an ICONIC line in The Hills when she told Heidi, "I wanna forgive you... and I wanna forget you." Who in your life has dome damage beyond repair to the point where you can't forgive and make up and quite literally want to forget them? Sis, today we're talking about how a situation can continue to affect your life until you make the decision to forgive the person. Of course, I had to spill a lil bit of my personal business, and we're journalling our thoughts and reflections, and as always, we're getting into an appropriate Lyric Dissection as we look at India Arie's Heart of the Matter.

    I'm Not Your Strong Black Woman

    What's good girlies?! We're in our rebrand season and deciding that we're here for the soft life as of today. We're not going to show up as the 'strong black woman' the world has forced us to be. We're redefining strength and how we embrace it. Also, Jazmine Sullivan dropped Heaux Tales Mo' Tales The Deluxe and we're getting into the lyrics as we do. Class is in session!

We're tapping into how we best position ourselves to actualise our purpose and being on this earth and we're getting into pragmatic tools to help us on our journey and of course a weekly affirmation that we can speak over ourselves while we're at it.

    New Year, Same Me with New Goals

    Hey family! I might not always come when you call, but I'm right on time. Let me start by wishing you a Happy 2022, and we are getting straight to the business. It's not too late to start strategising and planning for this year, if you haven't yet done so. And if you have, let's become practical about how we won't fall off. We're talking about how we are positioning ourselves to have the best year yet & the only way to to do is by being intentional and setting short term vs long term goals. This year we vow to take care of our physical, mental and spiritual health. We vow to level up and take our careers and education to the next level. We also vow to live a balanced life and take the time we need and desire to rest, ensure we are happy and do the things that we enjoy. Here's to another year of glowing up, sis! 🥂 LEAVE YOUR THOUGHTS/QUESTIONS ANONYMOUSLY (OR NOT!) If you wanna be in the next episode, leave your questions, dilemma's and thoughts and I'll be sure to get into it!

    Best Shape Of My Life

    First of all, if you didn't watch Will Smith's 6 part documentary series on Youtube what are you doing?! We're talking about getting into the best shape of our lives, and we're not just talking physically but mentally and emotionally too. Then, of course I had to shout out Summer Walker who through her transparency on Still Over It is giving a voice to women's healing journeys. What we thought was going to be a sad girls winter turned out to be an empowered girls winter. Lastly, we had to get into Beyonce on Be Alive as we dissected the lyrics.  LEAVE YOUR THOUGHTS/QUESTIONS ANONYMOUSLY (OR NOT!)

    Give Yourself A Lil Grace

    Hey family! This week we're going easy on us. We're extending the same grace we always let others have and catching a break from the pressure that we put on yourself. It's okay to take a minute to rest and breathe-- that also qualifies as loving ourselves. You guys voted, so I must adhere and give you the story time about the time I cried over a man with nothing but a birth certificate (IYKYK don't miss out on our IG conversations!). And finally, we're back with another lyric dissection and you know we had to get into Adele's new song "Easy on Me" as it tied so perfectly with today's theme.  WATCH MY FIRST REACTION OF ADELE'S EASY ON ME HERE  LEAVE YOUR THOUGHTS/QUESTIONS ANONYMOUSLY (OR NOT!) If you wanna be in the next episode, leave your questions, dilemma's and thoughts and I'll be sure to get into it!

    Hey family! Happy Wednesday AKA our favourite day of the week. We're checking in today, and prioritising our mental health.
