About This Episode

As entrepreneurs, we value our work, clients, and most especially our business. But, we should keep in mind that it is also good to take a healthy amount of break. Taking breaks can help us recover from stresses we deal with daily which can help us perform better.

As a podcaster, taking breaks allows us to recover, reassess, and even improve our content! May it be social media breaks, work-related, or in our podcasts, a good and healthy amount of relaxation can help you attain optimal wellness. We may not see it but if you’re experiencing brain fog, feeling absent-minded, or just plain tired, this is your sign to do it sis!

In this week’s episode, I’ll be sharing with you the importance of understanding your masculine and feminine energy, the benefits of taking breaks, and how they helped me live my most opulent life. By doing these, you’ll be able to continue to increase your audience and maintain the momentum of your podcast while taking your well-deserved break.

About This Episode

We all want to be loved, and it’s natural for us to seek out affection, support, and comfort from others. But there is no such thing as a perfect childhood. At some point in our lives, we’ve experienced trauma, felt pain, or fears.

But did you know that those experiences you had in the past have a direct effect on how you live today and how you handle your relationships? Perhaps you’ve never given much attention to your relationship behavior or the patterns in your love life.

If you’ve noticed a pattern of harmful and emotionally draining habits in your romantic life, maybe you need to dive deeper and observe how you connect with others through your attachment style.

In this week’s episode, Paula Goode, a transformation coach and a registered nurse, shares the four types of attachment styles and explains the differences of each one for you to identify and understand the logic behind your relationships, habits, and past experiences. She shares with us how our past experiences and trauma play a huge role in how we attach to people, the importance of inner work and healing, and some tips on how to stay free from our old habits for us to live a happy and thriving life. 

In this conversation, we discuss:

• The four types of attachment styles
• The parent’s role to their children’s attachment style
• How these attachment styles impact our actual relationships
• Working on your trauma timeline
• The magnetic blueprint group coaching course

About This Episode

We all dream of having the perfect relationship. To meet our dream partner. Someone who fits our expectations and be with us for a lifetime.

But what does it take to create a perfect relationship? Does it involve finding your perfect one true love? Or is it just a myth that society tries to push us to believe in?

This love month, we’ve invited Marshaun Olaniyan, a shift relationship strategist who shares with us how creating the relationship you want built from trust, love, honesty, and so much more starts and ends with us not our partners. She talks about the importance of healing past traumas, how you can prepare yourself mentally and emotionally for your next relationship, the importance of communication, and how to find that connection with your partner by first working within.

All romantic relationships have their ups and downs, and they all require effort, dedication, and a willingness to grow together with your significant other. You need to compromise and find ways to stay connected, find contentment and happiness to maintain a healthy relationship filled with love. But everything starts YOU. 

Listen to this episode today to hear more about this and some quick tips to help you create the relationships that you desire. 

In this conversation, we discuss:

“Your destiny starts with your desire.” – Dawn Kristin Ellison

About This Episode

This week, it’s all about manifesting, sis!

Manifesting can help you achieve your goals and dreams and bring the things you want into your life. In short, speak things into existence! 

Our mind is so powerful that it can shape and influence how we think, act, be and do. Our mindset and imagination are inspired by what we manifest, and this paves the way to what we want to achieve in life. Be it money, a new career, relationships, or whatever you aspire to be – speak it and it shall be. 

In this episode, I am talking with Dawn Kristin Ellison, a Life Mastery Coach, Spiritual Mentor, author, speaker, mother, and founder of EVOLVE Life Mastery. She shares with us how the four steps of manifestation, recognizing the blocks that hinder our ability to manifest, the power of small decisions, and how we can have the belief and desire to manifest our most opulent life. Listen to learn more!

In this conversation, we discuss:

• What manifestation is all about
• Misinterpretations on manifesting
• The four steps of manifestation
• Benefits of self-awareness
• Importance of having desire in our life

About This Episode

“You can be the vivacious, radiant, beautiful queen goddess diva that you were born to be.” – Ivy Allen

Our society has been so used to stereotyping and gender roles. Feminine characteristics are traditionally viewed as undesirable and when we hear the word “femininity ”, we may think of them as emotional, weak, or fragile. 

All feminine characteristics have typically been connected with women, while masculine characteristics have been associated with men. Yet in this generation, it is past time for society to recognize that masculinity and femininity are not attributes we connect with gender, but rather, with character. And the reality is men and women are a mix of feminine and masculine energy.  The degree to which one is in varies from person to person without determining their sexuality.

Women have learned to step up, confidently show up, take charge and lead, things that may be considered more masculine roles.  So this week, we are joined by Coach Ivy Allen, empowerment and mindset coach who helps women reinvent and reclaim their lives. We talk about the essence of femininity, how we can learn to embrace it, and how it directly affects our journey as women. 

Coach Ivy shares with us some of the common mistakes women make in relationships, how to find a purpose-driven partner, how you can embrace your inner divine goddess, and shifting our purpose to be an ambitious-driven woman.

In this conversation, we discuss:

• What does “femininity” mean?
• What does femininity look like for black women?
• How we can step more into our femininity
• How our past relationships impact our feminine essence
• Seeing men on a different perspective
• Categories of femininity
• What is the “divine feminine”?
• How we can reclaim our femininity

About the Guest:

Ivy Allen is a certified Life Coach and graduate of the international coaching school, CoachU, Inc. She is a writer, speaker, life strategist and personal coach, who helps women and men create intimate connections in relationships, expand their sexuality, express their natural sensuality, and date with confidence. She works with women and selected men to help them discover their passions, attract the loves of their lives, and create the partnerships of their dreams.

About This Episode

“If prayer is you talking to God, then intuition is God talking to you.” – Wayne Dyer

While many of us choose our decisions based on our experience or other people’s advice or opinion, we sometimes have that gut feeling of knowing what’s best for us.

In this week’s episode, we are joined by Andrea Jones a.k.a. Infiniti Jones who shares all about intuition and the important role it plays in our lives. She talks about the difference between ego and intuition, one of the biggest challenges she faced in her life, and how her intuition helped her be the best version of herself.

Being intuitive and listening to our bodies allows us to learn to trust ourselves and be aware of that part of ourselves that was always there but we either didn’t recognize or unintentionally shut down due to distractions or lack of awareness. By finding that balance, tuning into our bodies through meditation, and connecting with ourselves, we can live a more opulent life.  

Listen to Episode 83 to be motivated by Andrea’s story as you let your intuition guide you in life.

In this conversation, we discuss:

• The importance of intuition
• The difference between intuition and ego
• How trusting your intuition can guide in making major life decisions 
• External forces that cause you stop you from trusting yourself
• Learning to trust your body
• Tuning into God’s divine power
• The philosophy of giving and receiving

About the Guest:

Andrea Jones a.k.a. “Infiniti Jones” is a singer and an intuitive voice coach who help people find their intuitive voices by allowing that song of their soul to come through meditation, prayer, and healing. Andrea also co-authored the Unchained Goddess book.

About This Episode

“Good marketers realize that marketing is an investment.” – Cassandra Alexis

It is crucial to have a long-term plan for how you’ll spread the word about your business, and the key to that is to have a specific spending plan (also known as a budget) for putting that plan into action.

This is where many entrepreneurs make mistakes: not having a clear-cut marketing spending plan, not laying out important factors to consider, and not setting marketing goals to accomplish.

Sometimes when the finances are tight, the marketing budget is the first at the cutting board – or sometimes even scratched altogether. But it shouldn’t be. Failing to market and advertise your business properly can hugely impact your business and its potential to thrive. If you want to stay competitive and optimize your money, your marketing spending plan must cover all areas of planning, pricing, and of course, marketing your service.

You may have questions like: How much should my marketing spending plan be? What activities should go into my marketing spending plan? How do I track the money that I spent on my marketing strategy?

No need to worry because in this week’s episode, I’ll be giving you insights to help you figure out your marketing spending plan, shift your mindset, and work with the money that you need to allocate to go towards your marketing spending plan. Listen to learn more!

In this conversation, we discuss:

• What is a marketing spending plan?
• Shifting your mindset on spending your money
• Reasons why you need a marketing spending plan
• What marketing activities are covered by your marketing spending plan
• Factors that impact the size of your marketing spending plan
