Some of you are still waiting to move forward with your ideas, out of fear that it won’t happen the way that you want it to. Some of you are holding back on your plans, because you want it to be perfect before you get started. We’re not the experts, but sis…you can’t be a NY Times Bestseller – without a first draft…you know? You can’t be an Oscar winning actress, without a first audition. Those are just examples, but the point is, the outcome isn’t what matters at first. It doesn’t matter who likes what you do, or how you do it. What matters…is that you sit yourself down…and just start it. It’s Official! We’ve Got Merch! Get your official Slay Girl Slay Podcast merch at shopslaygirlslay.com!

You have to be super mindful about not just the things that make you happy, but even more mindful about the things that don’t. Protecting your peace, gives you a peace of mind sis. What good is achieving your goals and dreams if you don’t have the peace to enjoy them? What good is getting a bag, if you don’t have the peace to enjoy it? Some of us are working hard and finally starting to make moves in our lives – but constantly giving people, family, friends, coworkers the rights to take our peace away. But after today…we’re making some changes.  Mark your calendars, the Slay Girl Slay podcast has merch dropping on August 1st!!! Thanks To Today’s Sponsors!

You can’t control what happens next, but you can do your best to be prepared for it. Planning for your life, your business, and even your family is just preparation. Preparing for the things you want to happen, and sometimes preparing for the things that you don’t. Anything can happen, and there is always a chance that it will…but your plans, keep you prepared, in the event that they do. What plans are you making right now sis, and in the event that those plans fall through – what’s next? Because it’s better to have a plan and not need it, than to need it….and not have it.  Thanks To Today’s Sponsors!

It’s a lot going on in the world right now, or maybe it’s a lot going on in your life and it’s easy to feel hopeless. But no matter what’s happening to and around you, make a decision to get up, and get yours anyway sis. You make the decision for what comes next in your life. You make the decision for how you want to move forward. Do not let people, family, friends, society, or whoever dictate the very gift, and the very essence of who you are. You make the decision….not them. Subscribe To Our YouTube! Watch the video component to the podcast on our YouTube Channel! Join Our Membership! Learn more about our membership & join The Girl Gang!

The more you work, the more progress you make. But also, the closer you get to burning out. You can’t always be “on” sis. You are not a machine. Sometimes being unproductive is just as important as being productive, and this week we’re showing you how. No matter what’s on your plate, no matter how many responsibilities you have or the number of your to do lists – you deserve to rest. You can’t keep achieving more, without taking a step back, and doing less. If you needed a sign (or permission) to take a step back, and take a break – here it is. Subscribe To Our YouTube!

Remember 12 year old you? What you looked like? What you struggled with? Before you start beating yourself up today about how you’re not getting anywhere in life, or mad at yourself because you don’t feel like you’re making progress and your life is going nowhere – remember your 12 year old self. Believe it or not, you’re doing much better than you think you are sis. If you take a minute and remind yourself of your past – you might end up making yourself proud of all that you’ve become today.

No friction, no growth sis. No challenges, means no wins. Maybe the current challenge you are facing, is preparing you for a blessing that you’ve been waiting for. God will literally change your life, to accommodate the blessings that He has for you. But in order to accommodate for the things that you want, He has to move some things around in your life, make changes, remove some things, stretch some things, and put you through a process….to make room for them. Sometimes, in your toughest moments – you are being molded, shaped, and prepped into who you need to be to fully embrace, accept, and appreciate all the things that you are meant to have. You don’t deserve the hard challenges you face boo. But you do deserve to live the life you dream of.  Subscribe To Our YouTube! Watch the video component to the podcast on our YouTube Channel!

The reality is, bad things happen sis. Sometimes they happen to us, and sometimes they happen around us. But it’s our job to not let it get the best of us. Do not let bad situations, bad people, bad experiences, ruin the very good that is you. If you are still here, there is still time to love the people who love you, create the things you want to create, dream what you want to dream, and go to the places you want to go. That deserves the very best of you sis…and nothing else. Subscribe To Our YouTube! Watch the video component to the podcast on our YouTube Channel! Join Our Membership!

Sometimes the situations you find yourself in, and the outcomes you’re waiting for will happen the way that they are supposed to happen, and when they are supposed to happen. That means that there will be moments of your life where you can only do what you can do – and the rest is no longer up to you boo. A lot of us are trying to control things that we have no power in controlling. But instead of running yourself ragged, freaking out, and stressing – stop worrying about the “when” and shift your focus to the “how”…and then…just keep riding that wave until you get there.

The friends that you have today, may not be the friends that you have tomorrow. As you evolve and change, the people around you evolve and change too – and sometimes they don’t grow in the same directions that you’re growing. It can be tough making new friends as an adult, but you set the standards for your life…even within your friendships. We all have experienced jealousy, competition, and “weird energy” within our friend groups, that show us maybe the friends we have aren’t so great. But while you’re out looking for those great friends, that support you, add value to your life, and genuinely love you – remember great friendships…start with you. Subscribe To Our YouTube!

Some of you are sitting on some really dope ideas. Some of you have been wanting to step it up, and take your business to the next level. Take your projects and creativity to the next level. Take your life, to the next level. But you have not moved, because you are concerned with whether or not the world, your peers, your family, or your audience….will be pleased with what you do. But the reality is, you can’t please everybody sis. If who you are, and what you do is your best? Then who you are, and what you do…is enough. Subscribe To Our YouTube!

A lot of us know, what will ultimately make us happy. We know the things that we need to do to bring us happiness…but because there’s so many steps, and so many changes that we have to make to get there…we put it off. Doing things that bring us joy can sometimes be an inconvenience. It takes time out of our day, and not a regular part of our schedules. But sis….happiness is a choice. Happiness is not found at the end of the journey that you are on. In most cases…happiness can be found right where you are. Subscribe To Our YouTube!

It’s okay to be disappointed that your life doesn’t look the way you thought it would by now. But never forget, we live life on our own terms sis. Not by the terms of your family. Not by the terms of your friends, and certainly not by the terms of society. Don’t feel bad because you haven’t checked all the “life boxes” that you thought you should have checked by now. No matter what age you are, no matter what season you’re in, if it didn’t happen before today, it wasn’t supposed to happen before today. But the good news is…you still have a lot of life…to live.

It’s looking like a season finale boo! Listen, there is something that only you can do in this lifetime that has the power to change your life, and the lives of those around you. All of us were born with a gift, and whether we use it or not is up to us. But the purpose you are seeking sis, the accomplishments you’re striving for, the love and validation you want, the security you may be looking for, the happiness that you are after, can be found in the gifts that you were born with. Your gift will make room for you boo…if you step aside, and allow it to. Join us this Wednesday, December 15th at 7:00pm CT as we go LIVE on Instagram to celebrate the end of Season 4!!

All of us, are waiting for something to happen in our lives. Waiting for life changing news, a significant other, a booming business, literally the list goes on. But instead of being anxious and worrying about what’s going to happen in the future and trying to chase down answers you don’t have yet, focus on all the things that make your life beautiful right now. Do not get weary, while in your waiting season sis. You deserve the good things that are coming. And whatever you are waiting for will one day come too….but only if you sit back, and allow it to.

Most of the time we get excited about growing into the person we’ve dreamed of, and accomplishing our wildest dreams, but we don’t really sit down and think about how much we’re going to have to do (or go through) to get there. For every goal you are focused on, there is a blindspot that you can not see boo. When it comes to our dreams and goals, we tend to believe in only the things that get us excited, and we don’t acknowledge the things that might disrupt us along the way. But your blindspots can become roadblocks if you do not pay attention to them. Subscribe To Our YouTube! Watch the video component to the podcast on our YouTube Channel!

Everyone will not love who you are and what you do. The real question is, do you though? Your gifts, talents, ideas, and all the things that make you the bomb person that you are, will not be for everybody. No matter how hard you work at something, and no matter how hard you try, you can’t please everyone sis. There will always be someone that will refuse to pick up what you’re putting down. And you know what? That is 100% okay. Subscribe To Our YouTube! Watch the video component to the podcast on our YouTube Channel!

Life has a way of grabbing us by the edges, and hitting us when we least expect it. No matter how great you may be feeling, life can just punch you out of nowhere. But at some point, when you’ve had enough, you have to learn how to look life square in the eye and fight back. Life will always be life, but most importantly you will always be you. So if you’re feeling down, if you’re feeling sad, if you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, grief, or all of the other things that we have to deal with – put them dukes up sis. Stand up, square up, and fight back. Subscribe To Our YouTube! Watch the video component to the podcast on our YouTube Channel!

Sometimes we don’t like enforcing boundaries because that means we might have to say something we don’t want to say to someone. We don’t want to hurt their feelings, and we don’t want to sour the relationship so the boundary is never enforced. But as we know, boundaries are not for them sis, boundaries are for you. Speaking up for yourself is a way of setting a boundary. But what matters the most, is not what you say…but how you say it. Subscribe To Our YouTube!
