#relationshipwoes With Danie + Friends

This month, we are using this as the launching pad for building a better relationship with money. For us to get real with money, we have to heal any past traumas or mindsets that we have with money. This title came from listening to Jay Z’s 4:44 album and just loving how real it was. He pulled from some deep ish to pivot into being a new level of self.  In this week's episode, we talk about doing the same thing with money, our mindset and merger with it of sorts. While revisiting the past sucks, but it can be a deterrent to your greatness too. Just like many of us go to therapy to talk about how our past impacts who we are now, we can do the same when it comes to money. Being real allows you to reveal your internal compass.  Knowing Your Triggers Just as with your past relationships, think back to what potential toxin activities did you play or see played with money. Could the love of lack be holding you back? Stop looking to the Jones’ for “goals” and build your own Many of us look to others who “seem” h

A few weeks ago I went to the beach with my family. It made me realize just how much I had isolated myself from my family after having my daughter. I had two different conversations about it and how they wanted to support me with her so that my marriage can thrive. Quick Backstory: My daughter Lyric has Autism. She was diagnosed around 2 years old she’s now 4 but all within the course of 5 years my life drastically changed. A month after I got married I found out I was pregnant. I  was sick for 6.5 months. Then she was born and EVERYTHING was increasingly difficult from not sleeping at all (me, baby, or husband) to postpartum depression. It’s been a tough and lonely road but now that we have a handle on MOST things it feels good to have people willing want to support. I didn’t know how to ask for help so I stayed away. The irony of it all was I was already going to drop this episode but I'm elated to know that there's a rainbow at the end of this storm. I've been screaming “where TF is my village” for so long

This week we’re going to chat about a topic that’s near and dear to me, “Daddy Issues. Growing up without a father physically or emotionally will always affect the child. I sat with 5 women who openly shared their stories and journeys with me as they navigate their own “Daddy Issues”. Their bravery to confront their struggles is inspirational.  In this episode, we talked with each woman about their story: Je Tuan Jones is moving through meeting her father for the first time as an adult and navigating the emotions as well as the boundaries Loreal Moss finding out that the father she’d always known wasn’t her biological father 13 and unpacking the feelings she felt and how it all shifted her life Melony Hill breaking through trauma and abuse by transmuting her pain into power while the father she didn’t have raised her son Tiffany Brown finally using her voice to speak her truths and acknowledge her father’s absence through writing a book Dani Taylor realizing that her father’s emotional detachment lea

This episode means so much to me because I have a blended family. Between me and my husband, we have 7 kids. I sat down with Darling Allegri to chat about what it's like to have a blended family. We chopped it up about the good, bad, and downright ugly.  For those who don't know what a blended family is here's a quick synopsis: "A blended family is defined as a family made of two parents and their children from previous marriages or relationships." Darling is a newlywed so I thought her take would bring some freshness to the topic. I've been blended with my husband for about 8 years now and well it's been a ride for sure LOL As a wife, mother, step-mother, and entrepreneur, Darling finds the time to nurture herself through closet singing, dancing, and terrible art. She loves the art of being.

Boring titles aside, She's the gal who gui

Hey, Friends, I am so excited to release my first solo episode of Season Two. My nerves kicked in so I viciously scramble to write down ALL the things. Solo casting is tough for me because I am overly critical of myself but I am championing through it. This episode is all about Growing With The Flow and what it looked like for me. Rebranding this show was a struggle because I prefer to give the light to others. It's nothing wrong with sharing their stories but the universe reminded me how powerful my story is as well.  So I decided to kick this season off with my struggles and my strengths. Because I love to share how I got to this point I give you guys an overview of how to unapologetically grow with the flow. Flow is a steady, continuous stream of something. I had to let things happen to me and for me to get to this point: Growing with the flow meant grieving the loss of my grandmother  Owning that I am powerful Stop making excuses for why I can’t do something Moving toward what I want as if it’s already mi

Ahhh Season One has been one hell of a ride, I've had amazing conversations, I've broken barriers within myself, I've learned and explored but most of all I have all of YOU. I am grateful to you all for the support and the shares it's been amazing.

Today is a special episode because I finally got my husband to sit down with me. Believe it or not, it was on a whim so the audio isn't the best. I wasn't going to share it a first but we both agreed that we should.  5 years ago today, we said our I do's and made a commitment to be there for one another through the good and bad times. So far so good but it definitely wasn't easy. We went from saying I do to a few weeks later finding out that I was pregnant with our first child and only child (as a couple). We both came into the relationship with children well he came with more than me but you get the point.  From blending our families to having a child with special needs, these last 5 years have taken us on the ride of our lives. We hope that you enjoy it and learn a little more about me and my husband.   In this Episode we talk about: getting married getting pregnant shortly after being married mental illness and marriage the rollercoaster ride that the last 5 years has been for us Join The Conversat
