S/O to Aliyah for being a guest on #YMHMS. As we closed 2020 and enter 2021, this conversation was both timely & informative 💎. In this conversation, we discussed hindsight and the different lessons we’ve learned and continue to learn when evaluating our thoughts, self worth & behavior. It’s important to take the lessons you’ve received and understand them to move forward in life. In this discussion, we addressed the different strategies we’ve identified when applying those lessons and tackling the roadblocks that we believed were there to limit us. It requires dedicated attention to your mind and intention in your choices. It requires transparency & vulnerability in your being. This is how you see clearly in hindsight to keep moving forward. 2021 is here! Let’s keep progressing.

S/O to Monifa for being a guest on #YMHMS! This conversation was both refreshing & relatable in so many ways. Thank you for being so honest & real about your current mental space & the realizations you’ve had that have helped you grow. In this conversation, we dove into the importance of letting go & the need to be ruled by external opinion. We also discussed the different thoughts & experiences we’ve gone through when it comes to discerning the people and things that brings us real peace versus the things that are constantly negotiating against our happiness. It’s important to make time to authentically assess the different moments in our live & identify the people, things & places that add value, happiness, & motivation to us while also being aware & accountable of the things that negatively become intertwined with our happiness and need to be released.
