Sometimes, trusting yourself can be one of the hardest tasks you set out to do. Life can be really tough at times and weighing you down. However, life can also be really beautiful. So beautiful that it wipes out the hard times.
Things can get even tougher if you’re super focused on completing a specific goal, whether it’s climbing the corporate ladder, finishing a degree program or maybe you’re just trying to figure out what to do next with your life. The pressure you place on yourself to deliver Continue reading
I’ve been chatting with one of my really close friends lately about how she’s just not feeling honored at work. She’s not feeling respected, like she’s getting back what she’s putting into her work.
My answer to her and what I’m going to tell all of you is:
You’ve got to go out there and ask for what you deserve. No one’s going to hand it over on a silver platter.
You have to be your biggest champions.
You have to be your biggest fans.
You need to go out into the world telling people, “This is who I am and this is what I deserve.
Sometimes, that can be really difficult to do.
We want to put in the work and then HOPE that we get our due praise and respect. It would be nice if it worked like that.
Sometimes it does work like that.
Sometimes there are just amazing people in this world who see our greatness. People who see our hard work and treat us accordingly. Unfortunately, a lot of the time we have to be the ones to show people how to treat us. So if you’re not getting the love and the respect that you feel you deserve, put your foot down.
Go out there and ask!
I’ll tell you right now though, if you’re not being heard, maybe it’s time to walk away. Maybe it’s time to go after something greater. That’s all within your power and that’s something you have to decide for yourself.
So whatever it is you have going on in your life right now, take a step back and ask yourself,
“What is it that I need in this moment? What is it that I need from this experience?”
Go out there and ask for what you deserve!
Go out there and get it!
What you deserve isn’t going to be handed to you on a silver platter. It does happen sometimes but
not all the time.
I’m about to head out into my neighborhood and go for a little walk. Because you know what? I needed to step up my self care game, this week. I have been feeling a little low. I haven’t been getting back the same amount of energy that I’ve been putting out into the world, over these last few weeks. I had to take a step back and ask my self “what do I need, right now?” This week, I’ve needed a lot of just chill time. So I’m gonna go out there and get that chill time.
So, figure out what it is you need. Whether it’s from the people around you, from yourself or your environment and go out there and get it.
Go out there and ask for it!

When I worked as a hairstylist, every holiday season I would hear the same complaints from my clients, “I have no time. I’m so stressed out. There’s so much to do. I wish I had more help.” My ladies would be one candycane away from losing their shit. The women who rocked the holidays like a G all had the same thing in common; their time management skills were on point.
Holiday stress can leave you ready to run away from home, so here are 3 time management tips you can put into play NOW.
As the holiday season creeps up, it’s the perfect time to make our self-care a priority. In this self care video series, Fill Me Up, it’s all about figuring out what brings you happiness and incorporating more of that into your life.
It’s your job to protect your peace.
Let’s go into the most stressful time of year, taking care of yourself better than you ever have before.
So in the last blog post, I threw at you that tough pill to swallow called ACCEPTANCE. We can’t change our family members but this holiday season we can change ourselves to better handle the fuckery (sorry for the language but I just love that word).
The first step to that change is accepting our family for who they are. The second part of that change calls on us to really own our truths.
What is something about you that no one can take away?
For the months of October and November, all of Vibrant Lifestyle Coaching’s content will be centered around getting you ready to deal with one of the most stressful time’s of the year.
As the holiday season approaches, get your mind right for everything your family’s bringing with them.
The love, the laughs, the opinions, the full bellies, and the unsolicited advice.
Start building yourself up and making your peace a priority.
Being around our families can be a lot to deal with…especially around the holidays.
We’re constantly ON; running from this to that, plugged into our electronic devices and always focused on what we have to do next.
This week, I challenge you to take some time to reconnect with yourself.
See if you can take a minimum of five minutes in the middle of your day just to be quiet with yourself. Continue reading
Side step the BS, the unnecessary drama.
