    Episode No. 155 The Joy of Saying No With Natalie Lue

    Episode No. 155 The Joy of Saying No With Natalie Lue

    This is a safe space, I promise. Raise your hand if:


    You have a habit of constantly putting other folks' needs ahead of your ownPeople ask you for favors because they KNOW you'll always say yesThe thought of being honest and saying NO makes you sick to your stomach because you don't want to come across as "mean", so you just go along with the flowYou're chronically exhausted from doing hella mental gymnastics in hopes of anticipating the needs and wants of other peopleYou secretly want to hideout so people stop asking you for help or favorsIf you raised your hand to any combination of these questions, you, my friend, might be a people pleaser. What's that? Well according to Natalie Lue, author of The Joy of Saying No, a people pleaser is someone that “suppresses and represses who they are to please others." Ouch right? 
    If that sounds familiar, don't worry you are not alone. In fact, I am a recovering people pleaser and I learned a lot about why we do it, and how to stop from today's guest, relationship expert-- Natalie Lue.

    In today's episode, she's getting down to the core of why we people please, how to recognize if you're doing it, how to stop, why no's aren't a bad thing, and how to create and honor boundaries. If you're ready to take back your power and show up as your full self without the people pleasing then today's episode is for you!

    Episode No. 154 Doing The Inner Work With Taylor Elyse Morrison

    Episode No. 154 Doing The Inner Work With Taylor Elyse Morrison

    When you hear the phrase #SelfCare what comes to mind?
    Is it a trip to the mall to spoil yourself rotten? Or how about a nice warm bath with a glass of Black Girl Magic Riesling? For me, self-care is binging episodes of Love After Lockup and eating a $5 holla from Little Caesar's. Judge yo momma!

    Now there is certainly a time and a place for the type of self-care that's all bath bombs and giggles. But then there are times when the soul yearns for more. Where you are called to get still, be quiet and do the inner work. In today's episode, we're chatting with wellness advocate; Taylor Elyse Morrison about what self-care is beyond face masks and matcha. She's showing us how to slow down, tune in + show up for ourselves in the most loving way.

    Episode No. 153 Does That Really Have To Be The Truth?

    Episode No. 153 Does That Really Have To Be The Truth?

    Lately, my inner critic has been going OFF on me, throwing the classic jabs like;
    “You’re not good enough”
    “It’s too late”
    "You're too old"
    “You’re doing a bad job”
    and the list goes on and on. 
    And truth be told, I was starting to believe every single one of those lies. That is until I asked myself two small questions that changed the game-
    -Does any of that have to be the truth? 
    -Is there an alternate set of thoughts I can choose to believe about myself?
    And asking myself those bad babies nipped my negative self-talk in the bud. If you’re anything like me and struggle with quieting your inner critic, then today's episode is for you (and me).

Your podcast lifts my spirit

Hi Jessica! I love listening to your podcast. Sometimes while I’m working, I binge listen to keep me uplifted. I own my own business - it’s a dog rehab facility that offers services exclusively to dog rescue groups and shelters. The highs are really high, but the lows are super low. It’s just the nature of my work. So listening to your podcast and letting your voice and words inspire me, keep me focused on how I’m doing my best despite the low times. Thanks for being here!
