Letting go of something or someone you've grown attached to is a struggle.
They may have been part of your life for a long time. Or maybe they just had an unexpectedly huge impact on you in a short time.
But some things or people are put into your life for only a season. Once that season ends, it's time to let them go.
Today, we'll share why letting go is so difficult and advice to help to move on to the next ...
Roughly a month prior to this episode's release, we celebrated Britani's birthday by going on a cruise.
This was my first travel experience ever involving a cruise, AND being outside of the country!
It's an experience I definitely don't take for granted because it had such a positive impact on my mental health.
Listen to our review of this trip and how travel therapy did wonders for our mental (and spirit...
Many people don't seek therapy despite feeling like they might need to.
Why is that? Because may people have some inaccurate beliefs about therapists and therapy altogether.
Today, we're going to correct some of these false beliefs so that you can comfortably, and confidently seek the help you want and need without feeling shame or fear.

As you listen, remember this:
Whether the unexpected brings you pain and turmoil, or fear of an ...
You've been hurt by someone you've considered close before. You may have hurt others close to you before. You may have even hurt yourself a few times.
Forgiveness is not easy, but it's necessary. It frees you from some of the pain you hold inside of you.
However, that doesn't mean you should be quick to blindly open yourself up again.
In today's episode, we discuss how tough it can be to offer second c...
We are back!!
Yes, it has been a while. Life got in the way, big changes happened in both of our lives --good and bad.
But we're still here for you! And we're switching things up a bit.
In today's episode (which was recorded a little while ago but life was lifeing) we'll discuss goals and what it takes for you to look forward to them instead of looking back on past failed goals.
Let us know what goals ...
What words come to your mind when talking about yourself? Are they uplifting, analytical, or even critical and self-crippling?
We've all had a lengthy conversation with ourselves in many points in our lives. Some good, many not so good.

You can make some of the biggest leaps forward in life. Yet, just one unexpected setback can mess up all of that forward progress.

Yes, setbacks happen, but they don't prevent us from achieving what's destined for us.

Self care looks like giving yourself a break, treating yourself, and making time to rest.
But it also looks like refusing to say yes to things or situations you know aren't good for you. It looks like understanding of your worth so you don't sell yourself short when an opportunity presents itself to you.
As hard as it can be, self discipline is a crucial element of developing a healthy mind. And today, we'll be sharing what that...
We're not always fond of the things we've done, or the persons we used to be in the past. Sometimes, that affects our present.

And we also have our very first guest speaker, my (Davon's) brother from another mother, Devonaire Thomas!

Tune in to discover what physical practices you can do today to see a gradual positive change in your mental health.
Not knowing what will happen to you next is scary sometimes. But in those moments, it's best that you take that leap of faith forward to see what opportunities lie ahead.

Sometimes there's people who suggest you stop; sometimes you'll have haters and doubters; sometimes your own mind might immobilize you from taking action.

Asking for help isn't always easy. It's not comfortable to have to rely on someone else. But in certain points in our lives, we just have to seek help to thrive.
