We can be in such a hurry to get to the next level in our lives, that we miss the beauty in the moments that we currently have. This current version of who you are HAS to exist, so that the next version of yourself can thrive. You are always evolving boo and you will never have this version of yourself again. So maybe take a minute to pause, slow down, and be with her. Thanks To Today's Sponsors! Listen now to Black Stories, Black Truths from NPR – wherever you get podcasts. Shop The New Pod Merch!

Most of us, will not treat our own selves, like we would treat our very best of friends. We comfort our friends when they need us. We give them grace, and acceptance. We are ready to ride at dawn, whenever someone does them wrong. But we will not hold ourselves to that same regard. We're not saying your bestie doesn't deserve that kind of love, effort, & validation. We're saying that you deserve that kind of love, effort, & validation too. Thanks To Today’s Sponsors!

Slide your credentials across the table, and don't be afraid to show people who THEY are in the room with. Thanks To Today’s Sponsors!

Maybe self care, isn’t just the products and practices we use to make ourselves feel good, look youthful, and be our best selves. Maybe self care, is also learning how to not care so much about things that we can’t go back and change. Worrying about things that haven't happened yet. When we hold on to negativity, and things we can't control - our body is keeping score. And to be honest sis....it's not that deep. It was never...that deep. ** Android Users** You can stream the Slay Girl Slay podcast on several podcast apps for free if you're an android user!

If it's something you want, go get it. If it's something you want to try, go try it. You don't have to wait for other people to be on board, to do something you want to do. Even if you have to do it by yourself. Most of the time other people will choose what is best for them, their budget, and their timeline. You have to make sure you're doing what is best for you...too. Thanks To Today’s Sponsors! Visit waldenu.edu and take charge of your education at Walden University.

Don't let the unknown stop you from progressing. Don't let what you don't know, stop you from what you can learn. How will you know what you are capable of, if you continue to do the same things you always do? Best case scenario, things work out in your favor. Worst case scenario, things still end up working out in your favor. So honestly sis....what's the worst that can happen? Thanks To Today’s Sponsors!

Just because it's not happening right now, that doesn't mean it's not going to happen later. It's just not happening right now. Sometimes the plans we make for our lives don't go according to plan. Sometimes the math just doesn't add up. But if it's not working right now, maybe there's another plan at play. Happy Thanksgiving week!!! Thankful for each and every one of you.

Have you ever finally found a moment of joy, and quickly got scared that someone or something was going to ruin it? Have you ever found a moment of peace, but deep down waiting for the other shoe to drop and everything to fall apart? Girl, we have. This is called self sabotage. When we count ourselves out of experiencing real joy and real happiness, because we’re waiting on something bad to happen. We're waiting on something to hit the fan, instead of feeling safe in our joy and just allowing ourselves to be happy. You deserve to be happy sis. Big happy...not broke happy.

There is no version of you that will make everyone happy sis. So collectively, let's all stop trying. The only thing that you can do, is be yourself. What makes you, YOU, is what makes you special. It's what makes you unique. It's what makes you one of one. Let people criticize, judge, and say whatever they want to say about you. Keep showing up as who you are sis. Not who your aunties, uncles, followers, viewers, or spectators think you should be. Thanks To Today’s Sponsors! Today’s episode is sponsored by EarnIn! Make everyday payday, with Earnin!

Even though the situation may not be ideal, sometimes you have to do what you have to do sis. Things happen, and sometimes we can't control it. But we can control how we respond. We make things hard for ourselves when we become emotional, and let our emotions get in the way of making clear decisions. You can't go back and change how things have happened in your life, but you can change how you respond to them. Stop stressing sis...start moving. Subscribe To Our YouTube!

The good thing about God is that you can always call him up. When you feel helpless, and overwhelmed. When life feels chaotic and you don’t know what to do. This week, with everything going on in the world, Ash reminds us that sometimes all you need to do is open up your mouth and talk to him. Without perfection. Without the need to say or do everything right. Just you, speaking what’s on your heart - to someone who's always willing to listen. Thanks To Today’s Sponsors!

Your job is your purpose sis. Your assignment, is your responsibility. The people in our lives all serve a purpose, but it's up to us to determine what purpose that is. The more you grow and evolve, the bigger that purpose becomes, and you can't carry purpose and everybody else too. Let the actions of others determine where they sit in the show that is your life. We're talking friends, family members, coworkers - anybody can get it sis! People are going to do what they want to do, but you have to keep doing what you were meant to do. No harm....no foul.

Buying pens, new planners, and new notebooks to get organized will do nothing if you don't sit down and actually do the work you plan to do in them. Most of the time sis, it’s the things that we put off, the things that we feel the most resistance to…those are the things that end up changing our lives. Sometimes you just don't feel like it, and we get it. But if you wait to feel good, and you wait to feel motivated enough to finish...it will never get done. Thanks To Today’s Sponsors!
