✨Self-awareness is key to avoiding a crash out. Take care of your energy!✨ Social media and life is constantly draining us, especially those of us who are content creators. It's important to find balance and purpose in whatever we choose to do in life, & I'd be lying if I said that doing this podcast doesn't get overwhelming at times. Auntie not mad, auntie just overstimulated lol! Put that phone down, go touch some grass, and actually live. I'm finding balance and I hope you guys are...

✨When Kanye said "Single Black Female Addicted To Retail".. he meant me!✨ As a fine babe who LOVES nice things... I have had to learn how to manage my money in a responsible way. And don't get me wrong, I am in no way a finance guru, but I've learned a thing or two along the way! There's so much discourse these days on this terrible economy and how expensive everything is. Who's to blame when people can't afford to pay their bills? The world may never know! Today, however, I wanna share with...

✨Discernment can save you a lot of time, energy, and tears!✨ Chile they done told me on Instagram (@LMJST_POD) live that don't hold the gowrls accountable for making better decisions when it comes to dating... and I don't because my babes can do no wrong! Really, though, I have always been a "STANUP" kinda girl when it comes to encouraging better dating decisions. A lot of this is rooted in what I've learned thus far through my own journey and from others. So, in this episode I wanna give you...

✨Don't let your ego or desperation cause you to fall victim to a Love Bomber!✨ Have you ever been the victim of love bombing? I think that we all have in some way.

This isn't inherently a bad thing but here's a little food for thought that came to mind when I saw the discourse surrounding our good sis Arnell Armon. I know I am late to the game on this topic but I just had to give my lil two...

✨Pop The Balloon Or Find Love is like dating apps in real life on crack!✨ Y'all know how I feel about these dating shows! I love to hate them and, secretly, can't get enough! This new and very viral show has brought about what the gowrls are calling "Balloon Pop Dating" and chile.. you know I had to give a little reaction to it. Now, do I advocate for these types of shows, definitely not, HOWEVER, there's always some good takeaways and Pop The Balloon is probably the most realistic one out....

✨Everything I want will come at the right time!✨ They don't say "timing is everything" for now reason chile! It's soooo hard to wait for the things we think we're ready for now. In all honesty, it one of my greatest struggles sometimes. I've learned, though, that this journey is not one where I can see the entire picture right away. Actually, in hindsight, I tend to see why things played out the way they did! All this to say, take your time. Clap and be happy for those around you. Understand...

✨"Beauty Is In The Eye Of The Beholder"... Beholder is you!✨ As much as we hate to admit it, life is easier when you're pretty. While pretty is subjective, pretty privilege is very much so real! I've wanted to touch on this subject for quite a while now, with a little bit of a different standpoint, because I do believe there's opportunity to gain pretty privilege and use it for good. We're getting into that, in conjunction with it's bestie Colorism. Enjoy🫶🏽. . Follow my photographer!...
