  • In this episode, Iā€™m excited to share a story that hit close to home, straight from my seven-year-old son, Jake. As we were rushing around getting ready for school, I gave him a little pep talk, saying, ā€œYou got this!ā€ But to my surprise, he looked at me and said, ā€œMama, I donā€™t got this.ā€

    His honesty was a wake-up call about how important it is to ask for help when we need itā€”something we, as adults, often struggle with. That moment inspired me to reflect on how we, too, can be more open and honest about when weā€™re feeling overwhelmed.

    Today, Iā€™ll explore the strategies Iā€™ve learned from my sonā€™s openness and how they can apply to all of us. Iā€™ll talk about how we can better recognize when we need support, the importance of asking for help early, and how to empower ourselves and others through honest communication.

    If youā€™ve ever felt like you ā€œdonā€™t got this,ā€ this episode is for you!

    Here are the highlights:
    (1:04) Lessons from a Seven-Year-Old's Perspective
    (4:45) The Importance of Asking for Help
    (5:19) Strategies for Asking for Help
    (7:05) The Role of Positive Reinforcement

  • Ever felt like a label from your past still has a grip on your present? In this episode, I talk about how those names we were called in our youth can stick with us, often weighing us down more than we realize. Whether it was "shy," "slow," or "not good enough," these labels can shape how we see ourselves well into adulthood.

    But here's the thingā€”it's never too late to shed those old labels and choose new ones that truly reflect who you are today. I'll share my journey of overcoming labels and guide you on how to start redefining yourself with the labels that empower you.




    Here are the Highlights:

    (01:11) Shed those old labels

    (03:35) Donā€™t give up your day job
