Hey there Thrive Tribe, This episode is all about forgetting them other folks. You know the ones... Always having so much to say about how right or wrong what you are doing is to them. Welp, it happens in the medical field and no doubt it will happen with multiple motherhood. We talk about and reaffirm how you are the standard to your own way of mothering and certainly when you are a high-achieving mom of multiples, there just is no comparison that says there has to be only ONE way. Get some tips to keep you on the path to forgetting what those other folks say and walk out your own path like the Bad Mama-jama you are! Don't forget to leave a 5 star review!

Hey Hey Thrive Tribe! This episode was delayed, special thanks to Hurricane Milton, but as they say better late than never. After attending Woman Evolve conference 2024, there were a lot of revelations received, some of which did not come right away. I share the concept of surrender and how I have learned it doesn't mean giving up something but more so letting go to replace with what is needed for the place, time, and season you're in. And though hurricanes can be devastating, I also learned a lot from experiencing 2 hurricanes nearly 2 weeks apart. Thanks for listening and be sure to leave a 5 star review!

Hey Thrive Tribe! It's time to put the bags down. In this episode we discuss how much we pick up and carry that weighs us down and actually stops us twin mamas from moving forward in our purpose and desires. Carrying the bags to some degree makes us think we are in control, but reality is some things are out of our control. And the more we carry the less space we have for the things we actually need. So let it go! Mama, let it all go and let God carry your bags and give you rest. Listen in for the 5 practical steps to make this happen.

Hey hey Thrive Tribe! My session with Dr. Sharita Gaskins-Tillett was nothing short of insightful. I gleaned so much from the Boss Lady Dream Builder founder's wisdom and progressive view of Self-Care. We have been socialized as moms to be all things to everyone but ourselves. Our minds have a way of sabotaging us and lying to us that everyone else we care about matters more than us. Did you know that just because you think it doesn't mean it's true? It is so important that we learn to investigate our thought patterns because our lives take the shape of our thoughts and decisions. Dr. Sharita challenges women and moms to constantly give ourselves to change, to evolve. Dr Sharita runs ‘'A weekend for me'' retreats that help women reinvent themselves and innovate ways that will continuously improve their lives. She emphasizes the need for a like-minded community that should push you to become the greatest version of yourself. As you improve yourself, so does everything about you. Refuse to settle.

Hey Thrive Tribe! Self care is not an option, it's an obligation. And it's time to be radical with it. Mamas this is especially for you, you owe it to you family to give them the best of you. But you can't do that unless you are intently and radically caring for yourself first. I've been saying this for forever the real definition of self care is what you can consistently do every day not just a weekly or biweekly pick me up (which is fleeting btw) Even though #InternationalSelfCareDay has passed, I want to remind and encourage you that YOU need care also. The World Health Organization recommends that Self-Care should be practiced 24 hours a day and 7 days a week?

You can conquer your life !In my years as a woman, professional mom, and wife, I have realized that we almost always lose ourselves, thanks to the ever-happening life seasons and demands. Many times, we seem not to have our lives, health, and wellness together. The major shift came after I sunk into undiagnosed post-partum depression after my twins. From the mom who had her well-fitting jeans with her life and career going, to a mom-of-four suddenly trying to figure out how to get through just one day. I thought the experience was going to be seamless like it had been with the other two. But no... The duplicity of twins took an emotional toll on me. I had help all around me but couldn't ask because I was trying to be supermom...Superwife, Super-physician, without breaking. Lie! My health spiraled downwards, and I found myself faced with a chronic illness that required steroid injections and multiple doctor visits. The doctor in me hated this so much, and don't get me started about the cost. I couldn't be fully present for myself and the kids. My life became cyclic. I had to make the tough decision to take charge of my health, and life in general, otherwise it would control my entire life. But how was I to do that? I had to confront the limiting beliefs and thoughts, and the norm I had allowed to dictate my life, family, and career. I had to shift focus to what I needed...To operate with a full cup to pour into my days and my people. I had to be my number 1...Not a by-the-way, because I couldn't pour empty. I became a radical proponent of self-care...Not the usual bubble bath, shopping spree, mani-pedi, etc...But daily practices that fill your cup inwardly, not externally. It took a behavioral change; I taught myself to be a morning person, embracing mental, spiritual, and physical fitness. It made me feel great that I could now do things I previously thought I couldn't do. I created new habits that were building me up at multiple levels. What will it take for you to take charge of your life? What do you need to do?I am offering a 6-week program that will be the start of the change you want to see. You will join a thriving, vibrant, community, that will keep you accountable as you make these all-important life changes. Interested?

Hey Thrive Tribe, Today's episode is a continuation of last episode. Dr. Dee provides the basis of healing her season of depression and introduces the concept of carrying a backpack of bricks to portray when we take on all the problems that exist around us (including our own). Dr. Dee breaks the down the healing process she has utilized into 3 components: spiritual (devotional, prayer, meditation) physical (exercise, stretching, moving your body) emotional (journaling) If you or someone you know are looking for a community to start this journey with and would like more information on the path to wholeness and wellness, Register for Masterclass: Conquer the Chaos-The Path to Health and Life on July 9, 7:30p E/6:30p/c https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYqde-gqDkvE9KNpn0S2MtwoTAYpuoTpr-L Schedule a strategy call with Dr. Dee by clicking here to see if you're a good fit for Twin Mom Chronicles Academy Need a mom-cation?

There are so many rules to follow, but coloring in the lines does not have to be one of them. Mamas, we spend so much time trying to make our lives or ourselves "fit in" the lines someone else has drawn. Well, this episode Dr. Dee encourages you to stop. Staying in the lines prevents you from achieving your full potential, being your authentic self, and most importantly prevents you from accomplishing the dreams/dream life you desire to create. This episode will provide you with the practical tips to color OUTSIDE the lines and feel good about it.

Hey Hey  Thrive Tribe!Mama, you will have time when you stop being busy. Yes, you read that right and I said what I said. Too many of us define the type of mama we are (good vs. bad) by how busy we are. Somehow the busier we are, the more mom status it earns us. In today's episode, Dr. Dee asks you to consider the reason you feel you don't have time as a mom is totally related to the fact that you are so doggone busy all the time.  Ready to create time for yourself without guilt and achieve the dreams you put on the shelf when you became a mom?

This week, I share on a topic we almost always don't want to discuss, especially as Twin Moms. Yet so often, we feel like we are falling apart. It happens to the best of us. I've been through a couple months of doubting myself, doubting why I am doing everything I do…Yet life kept happening, it ain't gonna stop. But in all honesty, my engine was running out.I ended up cutting out all the excesses; leaving only the necessities that I could not delegate - Being mom, being wife, being a physician etc. Many times as moms, we need to pause on so many things; most of which are near-impossible. So how do you still show up despite almost falling apart? Here are some of the practical ways I was able to show up despite almost caving in:I remembered that I must not put myself on the back burner, focusing on the things that threatened to take me out. I had to retreat and focus on myself and what I needed...Something I have learned to do frequently to re-energize and recharge.Secondly, I realized that I was too much in my head, and not giving it all away to God, my Father. I was praying but not letting things go. I learned to fully depend on God and allowed Him to take full control. There are weights I do not need to carry, I have Him…Thank God for He has been my saving grace.Thirdly, I recognized the help around me that I had almost forgotten or did not realize I have. These amazing human beings showed up in the most beautiful ways. They thought of me, they noticed I have not been myself lately…Find those people, that's your community. Treasure them. Remember, you are not alone. I pray that you find strength in your low season; when you feel like it's all crumbling apart, I hope you find the stability and staying-power as you reconnect with God, yourself, and with your community. One day at a time, you'll get there.  Ready for 1 on 1 coaching to end the cycle of self sacrifice, guilt, and fitting your work around your home life?
