Have you ever been friend-zoned, or told, “You’re an amazing friend, but you suck as a
girlfriend?” This week on the Crowned Opulence Podcast my BFF, LaToya Lawrence joins me
to share her journey from thinking like a man and being told that exact thing, to changing her
mindset, embracing her femininity and ultimately meeting and marrying her real-life Prince
Charming.
And like any good fairytale, Toya’s journey to meeting and marrying her Prince Charming was
filled with hard knocks, difficult lessons, a pivotal moment when she made a decision to do
things differently and going through the process of changing her mindset as a result.
You want to tune in to this conversation if you’ve ever wrestled with things like:
- Submission
- Allowing yourself to be vulnerable and asking for help
- Making your man feel needed
- Knowing when to speak up and when to let things slide
- Showing appreciation
What we’re drinking: Mimosa colada
- Ingredients:
- Champagne
- Malibu Rum
- Pineapple Juice
Quotes:
- “Every man need to feel needed too” LaToya Lawrence
- “I pick and chose my battles. That minute stuff I don't care about.” LaToya Lawrence
- “We are used to being leaders. We are leaders at work. We are leaders at church. We don't have to be leaders at home. It takes the weight off of you. You don't have to be the leader of everything.” LaToya Lawrence
- “Men like praise too, just like we do” LaToya Lawrence
