You did it. You shifted, stretched, and leveled up. For the past 30 days, you’ve been intentional about where your energy goes, who gets access to it, and how you show up in your own life. And now? You’re glowing. ✨ Not just the “drinking more water and minding my business” kind of glow (although, we love that too). No, this glow runs deeper. This is the glow of confidence, clarity, and self-trust. The glow that comes from moving through the world in alignment. And yet… sitting in that glow? It can feel unfamiliar. After spending so much time adjusting, recalibrating, and rewiring old habits, there might be a part of you that’s tempted to dim the light just a little. To retreat into the comfort of the old you. 🚨 That’s the trap. When you step into a new level, your old patterns will try to call you back. Maybe you feel an urge to over-explain your boundaries again. Maybe you’re tempted to shrink in a room full of people. Maybe you second-guess that bold energy you’ve been owning. It’s natural. Growth is uncomfortable. But let’s be clear—this glow? It’s yours. You earned it. So, how do you sit comfortably in your glow? Let’s talk about it. ✨ Step 1: Recognize the Temptation to Revert Listen, your brain LOVES the familiar. Even if the old ways weren’t serving you, they were comfortable. That’s why, when you start walking in your power, your old habits will come knocking like: 👀 “You sure about this whole confidence thing? Maybe just this once, let’s overthink it.”🙃 “Okay, but wouldn’t it be easier to just say yes and avoid the discomfort?”😳 “Whew, you’re really taking up space now… shouldn’t you tone it down a little?” No, ma’am. Not today. When these thoughts creep in, don’t judge yourself. Just notice them, acknowledge them, and remind yourself that they’re echoes of your past—not invitations to return. 💡 New Mindset: “Oh look, an old habit trying to sneak back in. Cute. But I’ve evolved, and I’m not picking that back up.” 🔥 Pro Tip: When you catch yourself slipping into an old pattern, pause and ask: “Would past me be comfortable here? Would future me be proud?” If past-you is cozy and future-you is side-eyeing, you already know the answer. ✨ Step 2: Get Comfortable with Feeling Uncomfortable Sitting in your glow means sitting in discomfort—at least for a little while. You’ve done the work to shift your energy, and now your job is to hold it steady. Think of it like breaking in a new pair of shoes. The first time you wear them, they feel different—maybe even awkward. But after a few wears? They mold to you. They become yours. Your glow works the same way. 💡 New Mindset: “This new level feels different, but I’ve earned it. I’m not backing down now.” 🔥 Pro Tip: That urge to shrink? That little voice saying, “Maybe I should just…”? That’s your comfort zone trying to reclaim you. Take a deep breath, adjust your posture, and remind yourself—you belong here. ✨ Step 3: Protect Your Energy Like the Asset It Is Now that you’ve leveled up, your energy is premium. That means not everyone and everything gets unlimited access to it. 🔒 What this looks like in real life:✔️ Saying “no” without guilt—because your peace is not up for negotiation.✔️ Pausing before reacting—because not everything deserves your emotional labor.✔️ Only pouring into what pours into you—because reciprocity is the standard, not the exception. 💡 New Mindset: “I worked hard for this peace, and I refuse to put it on clearance.” 🔥 Pro Tip: Before saying yes, ask: “If I say yes to this, what am I saying no to?” If the answer is your peace, your boundaries, or your rest… it’s a no. ✨ Step 4: Own Your Glow. Completely. You didn’t do all this work just to dim your light now. Your confidence? Own it.Your boundaries? Hold them.Your new standards? Keep them high. Don’t let the discomfort of growth make you forget: This is the YOU you’ve been working toward. And guess what? She looks good on you. 💫 💡 New Mindset: “I didn’t do all this work just to play small. I am fully standing in who I am.” 🔥 Pro Tip: Next time you feel the urge to shrink, pause and ask yourself: “Would my highest self be proud of how I’m showing up right now?” If the answer is no, fix your posture, adjust your crown, and move accordingly. Final Thoughts: Stay in Your Glow This isn’t a phase. This isn’t temporary. This is who you are now. So take up space. Hold your head high. Sit in your glow and let it radiate. 💬 Tell me in the comments: What’s one way you’re owning your glow this week? Drop a ✨ if you’re standing in your power!
Sitting in Your Glow: Owning the Energy You Worked For Read More »
Have you ever made a decision that’s for you—and immediately felt guilty about it? I know I’m not the only one. Maybe you finally said no to something that drained you, took yourself out to dinner instead of waiting for an invite, or enforced a boundary that should’ve been a given… and suddenly, you’re questioning yourself. Am I being selfish?Am I being difficult?Will they be mad at me? Choosing yourself sounds amazing and energizing in theory, but when you actually start doing it? Whew. It can feel strange, uncomfortable, even lonely. Like you’re going against the grain of who you’ve always been. But let me tell you something—just because it feels unfamiliar doesn’t mean it’s wrong. It means it’s new. And new is where the magic happens. If you’ve spent years saying yes when you wanted to say no, of course saying no is going to feel unnatural.If you’ve spent forever filling your schedule to avoid silence, of course sitting in stillness will feel uncomfortable.If you’ve spent your whole life making decisions based on what others want, of course choosing you will feel foreign. But discomfort is not a stop sign—it’s a sign you’re growing. And that’s exactly what the Self-Love Reset is all about. It’s not just a challenge—it’s a shake-up. A way to put yourself back at the top of your priority list and start making choices that serve you. It won’t always feel easy, and it won’t always feel natural, but every step is designed to help you shift into the next level of your life—one that’s centered on you, your joy, and your well-being. So let’s get into it: Seven days. Seven shifts. And a whole lot of self-love. Here’s what you can expect (and how to push through the parts that feel uncomfortable). What the Self-Love Reset Actually Feels Like (Not the Instagram Version) ✅ Day 8: Taking Yourself Out Solo 📍 What it feels like: You walk into a restaurant, ask for a table for one, and immediately feel seen—but not in a good way. Your mind starts telling you that everyone is watching, wondering why you’re alone. You might feel tempted to stay glued to your phone, rush through your meal, or abandon the whole thing altogether. ✨ Why it’s worth it: The moment you stop overthinking and actually settle in? You realize—Wait, I actually enjoy my own company. You order what you want, take in your surroundings, and soak in the peace of being with yourself. The more you do it, the more you realize that you were never the problem—your fear of judgment was. 💡 Pro Tip: Bring a journal or a book to ease any initial awkwardness, but challenge yourself to put your phone away and be fully present in the experience. ✅ Day 9: Saying No Without an Explanation 📍 What it feels like: You type “no” and immediately your fingers itch to soften it: I’m so sorry, I can’t because… You think about how they’ll take it, how you might disappoint them, how you could maybe squeeze it in if you really tried. Saying no feels like breaking an unspoken agreement you never actually agreed to. ✨ Why it’s worth it: The first time you say no and don’t over-explain? It feels like freedom. The more you do it, the more you realize that people adjust. And the ones who don’t? They were benefiting from your lack of boundaries, not your presence. 💡 Pro Tip: If you struggle with saying no, start with low-stakes situations (ex: declining an event invite). Once you get used to the feeling, work your way up to bigger things. ✅ Day 10: Writing a Letter to Your Future Self 📍 What it feels like: Weirdly vulnerable. You sit there, pen in hand, and suddenly feel like you don’t know yourself at all. What do you even say? It feels silly, awkward, like something from a self-help book that isn’t meant for you. ✨ Why it’s worth it: You push through, and something shifts. You start imagining who you want to be. You put words to dreams you barely admit out loud. Months from now, when you read it back, you’ll see how far you’ve come—and that moment? It’s priceless. 💡 Pro Tip: Seal the letter in an envelope and write “Do Not Open Until [Date].” Having a set time to revisit it makes the transformation even more powerful. ✅ Day 11: Making Decisions Based on What You Want 📍 What it feels like: Guilt. So much guilt. You hesitate, second-guess, and wonder if you’re making a mistake by putting yourself first. The voices of other people’s expectations are loud, and choosing differently feels like rebellion. ✨ Why it’s worth it: Then you do it, and nothing bad happens. The world keeps spinning. And you realize how many of your choices were about pleasing others rather than honoring yourself. The first time you choose you, it feels weird. The second time? A little easier. The hundredth time? Non-negotiable. 💡 Pro Tip: If you’re struggling, ask yourself: If no one else had an opinion, what would I choose? Your answer is your truth. ✅ Day 12: Starting Your Day with Music That Makes You Feel Unstoppable 📍 What it feels like: Simple, right? But then you realize how much you’ve been letting other things—emails, social media, stress—set the tone for your day. ✨ Why it’s worth it: One small shift can change everything. When you start your day with music that lifts your energy, you move differently. You show up differently. And that energy carries into every single thing you do. 💡 Pro Tip: Make a playlist called “Main Character Energy” and let it be your go-to for confidence boosts. ✅ Day 13: Creating & Enforcing a New Boundary 📍 What it feels like: Heavy. You know someone’s not going to like it. You anticipate the pushback, the questions, the subtle guilt-tripping. You feel responsible for their reaction, even though logically, you know you
The Self-Love Reset: Hard—But Sooo Worth It Read More »
The Truth About Letting Go I was talking to someone recently, and they shared how they’ve been letting go of invisible labor and finally prioritizing their own self-care. But then they said something that made me clutch my pearls. “I guess I’m stepping into my villain era,” they said with a nervous laugh. Now, hold up. Villain era? Let me stop you right there. Choosing yourself isn’t villainous—it’s regal. Letting go of everyone else’s baggage, deciding you don’t need to solve problems you didn’t create, and putting your own well-being front and center? That’s not destruction; that’s elevation. It’s not your villain era. It’s your queen era. But let’s be honest: stepping into your queen era can feel a little…off. That’s because for so long, we’ve been taught to be the ride-or-die for everyone but ourselves. When you start saying no, when you stop making yourself available 24/7, it can feel like betrayal—like you’re doing something wrong, even when you know deep down it’s the right move. Why Letting Go Feels Villainous So, why does letting go of everyone’s everything feel like you just turned into the bad guy in a telenovela? Let me break it down: How to Deal with These Feelings So, how do you step into your queen era without being weighed down by all this villain energy? Let me help you out: From Villain to Queen Let me tell you something: stepping into your queen era isn’t about turning your back on everyone—it’s about finally turning toward yourself. It’s about realizing that your well-being is a priority, not an afterthought. Yes, some people are going to be in their feelings about your boundaries. Yes, you’ll have moments when the guilt tries to creep in. But here’s the thing: queens don’t explain their reign. They just reign. And remember this: the people who really love you will understand. They’ll adjust, and they’ll respect your need to take care of yourself. Anyone who doesn’t? Well, maybe they don’t deserve front-row seats in your kingdom. So no, you’re not a villain for letting go. You’re a queen for rising. Put on your crown, straighten your posture, and remember: your era isn’t about destruction—it’s about flourishing. It’s time to step into your queen era and reclaim your throne! If you’ve been carrying invisible labor, saying yes when you mean no, or feeling the weight of being everyone’s go-to, this is your sign to choose yourself. Start small—set a boundary, take a rest day, or say yes to your joy. Want to connect with a community of like-minded women who are stepping into their power? Join us for the Not My Red Wagon to Pull event! Not My Red Wagon to Pull: A Virtual Gathering for Women Ready to Reclaim Their Power In this transformative session, we’ll unpack the weight of invisible labor, explore the grief and growth of letting go, and celebrate the freedom of prioritizing YOU. This is more than an event—it’s a space for connection, healing, and stepping boldly into your queen era. ✨ When: January 20 at noon ET✨ Where: Virtual ✨ What You’ll Get: Practical tools, heartfelt conversations, and a supportive community to remind you that choosing yourself isn’t selfish—it’s revolutionary.

From Villain to Queen Read More »
Why It’s Often Not Worth It This weekend after weeks of work related stress I finally took a moment to get to the beach which is where I fully relax. I had a great day, my shoulders dropped from around my ears and I was feeling good. When I tell you as soon as I came home I had a hurtful encounter that completely pissed me off, please believe me. All I wanted to do in that moment was clap back. It is only the fact that I know better that kept me from unleashing on the person with the full force of my tongue. So today, I want to focus on that moment when someone hurts you, and all you want to do is unleash your inner clap-back queen. Maybe it was a shady comment, a backhanded compliment, or just straight-up disrespect. Either way, you’re sitting there, heart racing, and the perfect withering comeback is sitting on the tip of your tongue, just begging to be let loose. But then, something in you knows…this isn’t going to help. And with a little disappointment at the momentary glee you would feel from being reckless, you rein your tongue in. Whew!!!!! Being the best version of yourself is not easy. But it’s definitely worth it. Don’t get me wrong. If anyone gets it, I do. When someone comes for you, the natural reaction is to defend yourself, right? I don’t know about you but I have the keen desire to show them that there is one, but I am not the one. But here’s the thing: clapping back might feel good in the moment, but for me it usually leads to regret later on. I replay it in my head and feel badly that what I said or did, is not at all aligned with my goal of being the best version of myself, and more than likely caused harm. Cause there is nothing nice about me when I am in clap back mode. The aftermath is just not worth it. Three things I hate about the aftermath of the clapback: So, what’s the alternative? How do you handle being hurt without letting the clap back energy rule? Here are a few strategies that help me. Please note none of this is easy in the moment, but it helps. When The Clap Back Energy Tries to Come to the Front: The first step is to pause. Yes I said pause. When someone hurts you, that immediate surge of emotion can cloud your judgment. But before you react with the clap back that lays them out in their permanent resting place – take a breath. Give yourself a moment to process what just happened. This isn’t about ignoring your feelings—it’s about giving yourself time to fully understand them so that you can respond thoughtfully. Tip: Count to ten before you say anything or take nine deep slow breaths (which is about 3 mins). You’d be surprised how much clarity comes in those ten seconds or three minutes depending on which you choose. Not every battle is worth fighting. Sometimes, people come at you leaking their own issues and baggage, and it has nothing to do with you. Ask yourself if clapping back will make the situation better or just escalate it. Example: If someone makes a snarky comment at work, think about whether it’s worth engaging. Will it change the situation? Or will it just create more tension? Key Question: Will this matter to me tomorrow, next week, or next year? If the answer is no, it’s probably best to let it go. There’s a difference between reacting out of hurt and responding from a place of strength. When you react, it’s impulsive. But when you respond, you’re in control. It takes a lot of discipline to stay in control. Responding can be silence or a mindful response, but the key is to respond in a way that is true to your highest version of yourself. Tip: If you need to address the situation, try something like, “I didn’t appreciate what you said, and here’s why.” Explain your why, if you choose to, and be clear about what you would prefer in the future. I find that we would rather display anger than admit hurt, but I am trying to be more honest about communicating when I am hurt. That means I now literally tell people when they are being hurtful if I want to maintain a relationship with them. Responding instead of reacting shows you’re not about to let anyone walk over you, but you’re executing the enforcement of your boundaries with grace so that you can be proud of yourself. This is really for you, not the other person. If the emotions are bubbling up and you really want to clap back, find a healthier way to release that energy. My go to’s are calling a friend, or hitting my punching bag. What ever you choose to do, choose something that lets you get the negative emotions out of your system in a way that doesn’t leave you with regret later. Example: I once had a situation where someone said something wild to me at work. I was ready to fire back, and I would have skewered them and I knew it. I chose not to respond. I called my sister fuming and she let me vent. By the end of the conversation, I felt better, I still had my pride and the means by which to pay my bills. That person however was never allowed inside of my safe space again. Clapping back would’ve done more harm than good for me in that moment. And setting boundaries was so much more productive. Tip: Can’t make a quick call? Go sit in your car and record a 5-minute voice memo rant on your phone, then delete it. Trust me, it works wonders for getting the frustration out without causing damage. Sometimes, the best response is no response at all.
How to Cultivate Deeper, More Meaningful Relationships Alright, let’s get real for a minute. You’ve got the career, the degrees, the accomplishments, the home. You’ve checked off all the boxes, and from the outside, life is looking good. But when it comes to the people in your life, the connections that should bring you joy? They’re just not hitting the way they should. That was me a few years ago. To be honest, I am an introvert so when my relationships feel off kilter that is a big deal. We all know that real joy comes from real connections—those deep, meaningful relationships that lift you up, not the surface-level ones that just take up space and make you take a deep breath before engaging with the person. You know that you know what I mean. But here’s the thing I had to learn; meaningful connections don’t just happen because you’ve known someone for a long time or because you see them regularly. They happen when you’re intentional, when you let yourself be seen, and when you focus on the people who really matter. I don’t know about you but for me that was a game changer. I had assumed that people pay attention to my needs in the way that I pay attention to theirs. Boy was I wrong. For the most part people are busy with their lives and they aren’t thinking about what you need, you have to tell them. When I changed my approach my relationships improved and I cannot lie, I was shocked that such a simple thing was the game changer. I have a friend that likes to tell me closed mouths don’t get fed. To be honest, I hate the phrase but in this case, it’s the truth. Anyway let’s talk about how I learned to build those kinds of relationships—the ones that leave you feeling filled up instead of drained – and maybe it can help you too. 1. Be Intentional About Your Relationships Listen, life gets busy. We’ve all been guilty of going through the motions, keeping up with relationships out of habit or obligation. But if you want to feel that real joy, you have to put some thought into who you’re spending your time with. Are you hanging out with people because it’s convenient, or because they truly add something to your life? This was a big one for me, because I am the type of person whose emotions are impacted by the company I keep. So I can’t be around folks who drain my energy. I knew that, but I didn’t pay attention to the fact that I was spending time with people who were taking value, but not adding any. If that’s you here is what worked for me. What can you do?Take a step back and ask yourself: Who am I really connected to? Who makes me feel seen and heard? And who am I just keeping around because it’s comfortable? This is your life, —there’s no room for draining relationships. The people you spend time with should bring you energy, not just take it. I have big sister energy so I am always trying to help and nurture, but I realized I didn’t have balance. I needed people who would do the same for me. Action Step:Here is something you can do: Choose one or two people who you feel a true connection with and schedule time to catch up in a way that feels authentic to the relationship and you. Whether it’s a phone call, a coffee date, or just sitting on the couch choose a medium where you can be fully present with them and focus on building that relationship. Think about it this way, when was the last time you were truly listened to, or truly listened to someone without interrupting with a story of your own or with questions that piqued your curiosity. Try offering a deep listening experience to someone you value and watch what happens. 2. Create Space for Vulnerability Now, I get it—vulnerability isn’t always easy. Especially when you’ve been in control of your life for so long, letting someone see the “real you” can feel uncomfortable. But here’s the thing: real connections require you to show up as your full self. That’s the only way people can truly know you, and that’s where the joy comes from. Ma’am/Sir, this one was hard for me. Like I said, I have big sister energy, so I am not used to being the one who gets the help. But I had to learn to speak up and say what I needed, and wanted. I thought it would be so hard, but honestly because I was doing it with people who really cared, it was not hard at all. I just had to be brave and say it. So I did, I told people when I didn’t want them to be judgy, I told people when I wanted them to listen, I told people when things didn’t sit well for me. And it worked! I got what I needed from the people who cared. What can you do?Start small. You don’t have to spill your whole life story in one sitting, but try sharing a little bit more of what’s going on with you or about what you need the next time you talk to someone you trust. Tell them what’s really on your mind, whether it’s something that’s been bothering you or a dream you’ve been holding onto. Let them in a little more than you usually do. I did this with my younger sister and she was so supportive that I felt silly not doing it for so long. I was used to being there for her, but given the chance, she was there for me and it felt so good. Action Step:The next time you have a conversation with someone you trust, try sharing a small thing about yourself that you’ve been holding on to. It doesn’t have

Sometimes you can find yourself running on autopilot, only to realize you’re living out a script that feels a few sizes too small. I didn’t necessarily realize when this was happening to me. I just knew that I wasn’t happy. I was irritable and crabby and it felt like I was living someone else’s life. Truthfully I was mad at everyone else when the problem was really me. I was changing and the activities I was used to and the things that had traditionally soothed me were no longer working. In short I had outgrown my life, but I was clinging to that too tight uncomfortable life with a vise grip. I am not alone, it’s a common thing. Let me explain. Sometimes, we cling to old roles that don’t reflect who we are currently and we look around and think that the problem is everything and everyone but the person we see in the mirror. To change my too tight uncomfortable life, I did a drastic thing. I packed up and moved to a new state to start over alone. To be clear, you don’t have to be that drastic. You could start by updating our self-perceptions and truly embracing your most authentic self. It’s less expensive, but not necessarily easier. Update Your Identity Narrative To do this we have to agree on a truth and that is: our identities are not set in stone—they morph and grow just as we do physically. But often, we hang onto past versions of ourselves like we hold on to those clothes that no longer fit or are worn out because it’s familiar. I’m not judging you, I get it. I am inviting you to update your identity so that you can align your perception of yourself with who you actually are now, not who you were in the past. For me, the part of my identity I had been clinging to was not positive (shocker). I was operating from a place of fear and letting it limit me. Here’s how my therapist led me through the transformative process: Practical Strategies for Embracing Your Current Identity So like we talked about, shedding outdated aspects of your identity and embracing the current version of yourself requires intentional action. And you know I won’t leave you hanging. Here are some practical strategies to help you if you decide to make this shift: Navigating Relationships with People Stuck in the Past It’s one thing to update your own view of yourself, but another to deal with people who only see the outdated version of you. Now I am channeling all the good in me to write this part because these folks can be hella annoying and my first inclination is to shut down and stop engaging. But thankfully a part of my evolution has included being more gracious. So these strategies I am sharing below are ones that have worked for the new version of me. Here’s my advice on how to handle those who might not yet recognize the person you’ve become. Please feel free to choose what you like and leave the rest. Wrap-Up Ok, so we are at the end of another post inspired by my chats with my therapist. Who do you say you are? This was a powerful question ior me because it forced me to reflect on what was old, what was current, and how I was using outdated narratives and evidence to define myself. So here is my invitation to you – join me on this journey to shed old layers and celebrate the person you’ve become. Think of it as honoring your current self and making space for continued growth and new possibilities. Talk back to me. What aspects of your identity have changed recently? Share your experiences with me, or someone you love. Your story could be the spark that someone else needs. Let’s support each other in embracing our true, updated selves. I can honestly say that this work has helped me discover true joy and look forward to who I am becoming!

Using Mental Fitness to Counteract Rejection Rejection. Ugghhhh, Just hearing the word can make your heart sink a little, right? It’s that annoying part of life that none of us can avoid, no matter how much we want to, and unless we plan on living as hermits, at some point no is inevitable. I used to be so terrified of no that I wouldn’t even try for things. But here is what I’ve learned, rejection isn’t the end of the road. In fact, it’s often just the beginning of a new, exciting path. Alright so let’s get into it. Let’s talk about how to handle rejection with grace, a bit of humor, and a whole lot of mental fitness. Rejection: It’s Not Personal First things first, let’s address the elephant in the room: rejection feels incredibly personal. But, research shows that most of the time, it’s not even about you. A study conducted by the University of California, Berkeley found that rejection is frequently influenced by factors beyond an individual’s control, such as organizational constraints, market conditions, or subjective preferences of decision-makers. What that means in plain English, is that most of the time people aren’t rejecting you the human. And even when they are rejecting you the human, it’s generally more about them than it is about you. Practicing mental fitness helps you to not only understand this, but to detach your self-worth from the “no”. In other words someone telling you no does not mean you are not worthy of the yes. You just can’t get it from them right now. No Doesn’t Have To Define You I know you are probably thinking it’s really easy to say that in an abstract context. I knew you would, so let’s look at three real life examples of folks who didn’t let no define or stop them from being their fullest and most authentic selves. Let’s start with the track star Sha’Carri Richardson. When Rejection Stings Rejection can sometimes sting and sometimes it can feel like you have been impaled by a stake. And I am not here to tell you how to feel or even what to feel. Allow yourself to feel your emotions, but don’t park there. Don’t make the no your garage. There are steps you can take to move past the hurt in productive way. Last Word Ok so the point is, rejection is tough, but it’s not the end. It’s a stepping stone to something greater. So, the next time you face a “no,” learn from it, and keep moving forward. You’re not alone in this journey, we all face that no at some point in our lives. My goal is to help one million women to improve their mental fitness. I would love your help with that.
