A creative block is when you feel you have a barrier to inspiration. You sit down to plan content for your business but you have no idea what to write. That's a creative block.
Creative blocks can come on suddenly and knowing what triggers affect them can help you overcome creative blocks faster. When youâre in a space of creation, what does that look like? When youâre in a space of self-doubt and imposter syndrome, what does that look like?
I experienced a creative block trying to figure out what to talk about on this podcast episode. I took a step back, gave myself some space to relax, and think about something else. I allowed myself to not let self-doubt and imposter syndrome take over and today Iâm sharing all about my creative blocks and personal strategies to overcome them.
In this episode, I discuss:
Where creative blocks come from and what triggers themHow to get out of a creative blockMy personal strategies to getting unstuckConnect with Thea Charles

Take the first step towards your goal. I know that's easy to say but not as easy to do. You most likely know how to reach your goal. It's the breaking down of that goal into steps and not getting caught up in your thoughts that's keeping you stuck.
The key to reaching your goal is to set milestones for yourself along the way. Then break down each milestone of your goal into smaller attainable steps to not be overwhelmed. You can apply this type of planning in all parts of your life.
As a coach, I help people create and implement SMART goals. I help people just like you break down their big goals into milestones and those milestones into easy steps.
If you'd like to work with me, send me a DM or visit my website www.thearenel.com to set up a time to chat. We can see if we work well together and create a partnership to help you implement your SMART plan.
So what's a SMART goal that you're working toward? What's your next step?

What is gaslighting? Do you internalize stories that we or other people create? When we do, it makes us second guess our intuition.
Are these stories holding you this back from reaching your full potential? Are we limiting ourselves because of what other people say or do?
Take a step back and look at the possibilities before limiting yourself.
A simple question to ask yourself may not stop your beliefs right away but questioning why you are holding yourself back is a continual practice. Being able to recognize your patterns and reminding yourself that the past does not define the future is the key to not gaslighting yourself and to start feeling limitless.

What happens when we feel stuck in the decision process? Are you over thinking the process because you think everything has to be perfect?
Analysis paralysis is when you get stuck in the decision making process. It can happen when we don't make our next step a small manageable one, or we fear that our idea is not right. We can even think that if we muddle over our problem a little longer, a better idea will come along.

Do you take time to be with yourself? When you do take that time, what are you doing? Is there a certain activity? Is it a feeling or do you have to be in a special location?
The importance of taking time to self reflect, and learning to be comfortable with yourself is a huge part of the healing process. The pandemic shut down the world and gave everyone time to look within themselves and look at the world from a different perspective. Rediscovering yourself, your likes and dislikes, is the best form of self-care.
Todayâs guest is Michael James Moise. Michael was born in Massachusetts. He was raised in Lowell, Massachusetts with his two older siblings but spent most of his adult years in New York.
He is known for being passionately involved with Organic Gentlemenâs Club providing men and women with personal sustainable branding for modern day professionals. With a strong focus in education to inspire and uplift the generation of today and tomorrow.

In honor of Black History Month, I am putting a spotlight on influential Black Americans that paved the way for others.
Our last Black History Month spotlight is Activist, Marsha P. Johnson.
Marsha was born Michael Malcolm James Jr. in New Jersey on August 24 1945. She began wearing dresses at the age of five but stopped after being harassed by neighborhood boys. After graduating high school, Marsha moved to New York City and after meeting gay people in the city she realized it was possible to be gay and came out.
As a black, poor, gay, non gender conforming person. Marsha certainly knew what it was like to be marginalized. Despite Marsha's own physical and mental health issues, she spent most of her life helping others. Marsha's drive to continually show up as her true self and fight for the rights of others is truly commendable.
In this episode Thea discusses:

Johnson?Her impact in the gay community and the gay liberation movementHow she helped others feel comfortable about themselves and their sexual identityWhy she did not back down when standing up for basic human rightsReady to get out of your rut?

In honor of Black History Month, I am putting a spotlight on influential Black Americans that paved the way for others.
Our next Black History Month spotlight is American Artist, Jean-Michel Basquiat.
Jean-Michel Basquiat was an American artist of Haitian and Puerto Rican descent. He was born in Brooklyn, New York on December 22, 1960. Early in his life, it was evident that Jean-Michel was gifted. He learned to read and write by the age of four, and by the age of 11, he was fluent in French, Spanish and English, and an avid reader in all three languages. Jean-Michel was also a lover of art. He visited museums with his mother in Manhattan, and she encouraged her young artists by enrolling him in an arts-oriented private school.
At first glance, Jean-Michelâs art could be described as primitive. But the images were complex and sophisticated. Through his art his worldview is evident and undeniably black. There are hints of Jackson Pollock, and influences from his Haitian and Puerto Rican ancestry. His most recognizable motif is the bowl crown that appears in most of his famous works. His art often had words written in the painting, echoing his graffiti roots, and the stream of consciousness that went into the creation of the work.

In honor of Black History Month, I am putting a spotlight on influential Black Americans that paved the way for others.
Our next Black History Month spotlight is American Composer, William Grant Still.
William Grant Hill was an American composer who composed more than 150 works, including five symphonies and eight operas. William was known as the Dean of African American classical composers, as well as one of America's foremost composers.
He was born on May 11 1895 in Woodville, Mississippi. His mother was a teacher, and his father was a bandleader. After his father's death, the family moved to Arkansas, where his mother remarried, Williams formal music education began with violin lessons, and his love of music grew due to a stepfather, taking him to operettas and buying classical music recordings.
As a young man, William went off to college to learn to become a doctor. However, he soon found himself conducting the university band, writing music, and teaching himself to play various instruments. He left his traditional college before graduating, so he could attend Oberlin Conservatory of Music.
William served in World War One, and after the war, he moved to Harlem where he worked for WC Handy's Band. During this time, he was involved in the Harlem Renaissance movement. And through the 1920s, he composed and arranged music for various musicals and band leaders. By the 1930s he was writing popular music for radio programs and movies. In 1931, his first major orchestral composition, Symphony number one Afro American, was performed by the Rochester Philharmonic.
It was the first time a complete score of work by an African American was performed by a major orchestra and by the end of World War Two, the piece had been performed in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles. Berlin, Paris and London. Until 1950 it was the most popular Symphony composed by an American. William also composed Song Of A City for the 1939 World's Fair in New York City. And in 1949, his opera troubled island was performed by the New York City Opera. It was the first opera by an American to be performed by that company, and the first by an African American to be performed by a major company.

Episode 68: Unbought and Unbossed - Shirley Chisholm
In honor of Black History Month, I am putting a spotlight on influential black Americans that paved the way for others.
Our first spotlight is the first African American candidate for a major party's nomination for president of the United States, Shirley Chisholm. Shirley was born on November 30, 1924. She was a politician, educator, author, and the first black woman elected to the United States Congress.
Shirley's family immigrated from Barbados, and from a young age she had strong ties to the island. She lived by the mantra of being unbought and unbossed, a slogan that she used throughout her career, and was demonstrated from an early age.
In college, she won prizes for her debate skills, not an easy fee as a woman. After graduation, she worked as a teacher's aide, and an early child care center. While she worked there, she continued her education to earn a master's in elementary education, which led her to move from aid to center director. She was not content simply letting injustices happen in front of her. She quickly became known for standing up for issues involving early education and child welfare. It didn't take long for Shirley to enter the world of politics. She started as a volunteer for Brooklyn's democratic clubs, and worked her way up from volunteer to the New York State Legislature.
Shirley Chisholm is not only an inspiration for all women but she was also a force to be reckoned with. This story shows the determination of a smart, educated, and thoughtful woman of color but also the sheer will and refusal to accept the status quo.

Do you unconsciously hold biases against any group? When did you realize that you can make a choice to change and widen your worldview?
My guest today is Becky Curran Kekula. Becky is no stranger to facing her share of obstacles in her life. Becky is a public speaker and advocate for disability inclusion on a global scale.
Becky received her Bachelor of Science in Marketing from Providence College, where she started to gain a passion for influencing change behind the scenes in the entertainment industry. Upon graduation and after 1,000 applications, 100 job interviews, and three temporary job assignments, Becky started working full-time in the Entertainment Marketing department, followed by the Comedy Touring department, at Creative Artists Agency, the worldâs leading entertainment and sports agency. Five years later, she worked at CBS Television Studios, where she assisted with the casting of pilots and television series.
During this transition, she also served as the Marketing Director and Co-Founding Board Member of the Catalina Film Festival. She also founded DisABILITY In Media, which focuses on positive disability inclusion storytelling through social media. After her six and a half years of working in the entertainment industry, Becky launched a public speaking business. A prolific public speaker and advocate for disability inclusion on a global scale, she has spoken at over 200 venues, including schools, corporations, nonprofit organizations and government agencies, throughout the United States and beyond. Sheâs really passionate about disability inclusion in schools, the workplace, and everywhere else.

At SAG-AFTRA, she supported the implementation of a national diversity plan of action to achieve accurate representation of those groups historically excluded from the entertainment and news media. Becky currently serves as the Little People of America (LPA) Employment Chair and sheâs on the Board of Advisors for the National Center For Disability Journalism (NCDJ) at Arizona State University.

Have you had the odds stacked against you? Have you let other people deter you from your dreams? Did you use other peopleâs skepticism as a way to drive you? What inspires you to keep pushing toward your dreams?
Our guest today is no stranger to a childhood full of tragedies. Naomi Mamiye got married young just to have a home. She did not have parents to guide or have her back. Because of her foolishness of youth, years later she found herself divorced with 4 kids- no income or family to lean on. Naomi had to turn to her creativity to start a business. People laughed when she proposed to start the Naomi Mamiye Design firm. Instead of letting it bring her down, she used it as fuel to propel herself ahead and prove them wrong.
Naomi pushed herself hard to get to the top of the design world. She did her first few projects free of charge to get her name out. With a good reputation, one referral came after the next and she never had to advertise.
With a specialty in healthcare, Naomi Mamiye travels across the United States designing hospitals, rehab centers, assisted living centers, drug rehab centers and corporate offices. There is no single designer with these many projects to their name.
Today, years later, she is considered a leader in the field and constantly gets asked by beginner designers for advice or to watch her work. Naomi spends endless hours with all, setting them up to start businesses of their own. A true leader creates more leaders!

When you find yourself at a crossroad, the best thing to do is live in it and be present. When you sit in it, you are allowing yourself to pause and evaluate where you want to go. You are able to talk about the pros and cons of each path. You are able to talk about which way you want to go that will help you achieve the goals you have in your life.
Today, my guest is Lolita E. Walker. Lolita is a Certified Life & Executive Coach, TEDx Speaker, Author, Podcast Host, Retreat Cultivator, and change champion for you. She is at the forefront of a movement that empowers women and teams to embrace their challenges and triumphs, act in their strengths, and thrive in the greatness that drives individual and group ownership toward a renewed vision of excellence. She helps you to truly feel and trust the power within your pause.
After nearly 20 years, Lolita packed her faith, strengths, and experiences, then leaped from her senior position in corporate America. With a strong foundation and her savings account, she founded Walker & Walker Enterprises, a personal and professional coaching and change consultancy. Her company, Walker & Walker Enterprises, creates intentional sacred-spaces for individuals, corporations, agencies, and groups.

Are you waiting for the right time to make a change? Is fear holding you back from making a change?
What would happen if you woke up one day and said to yourself, today is the day. Today is the day youâre getting what you want. Today is the day you put your needs first. Youâre going to take action on the business idea youâve had for years, sign up for that coaching program, quit your 9-5, tell your partner you need more support around the house.
Hereâs the thing, you can do anything you put your mind to. It will take hard work but amazing things are waiting on the other side. Create Your Own Path.
