When frustration keeps showing up—in your business, your relationships, or just inside your own head—it might be time to look inward. In this episode, I share the mindset shifts that helped me stop blaming and start growing. This episode is a little humbling. I've been reflecting on some hard truths lately and realizing that many of the frustrations I experience point back to one thing: me. We often look outward for the source of tension, but what if the shift needs to happen inside us? Let's talk through five powerful mindset shifts that can help you let go of blame, reclaim your power, and soften into growth. Action Plan: 1 - Let go of being right: Opposing truths can exist; soften your stance and seek connection. 2 - Recognize other realities: Everyone sees the world through their own lens—don't take it personally. 3 - Lead with love: Even when triggered, choose softness over control. 4 - Build self-awareness: Notice your default reactions so you can change them intentionally. 5 - Choose responsibility over blame: You have the power to shift your energy and your experience.

If you've been moving through your days on autopilot and suddenly realize you don't quite feel like you anymore, this episode will gently guide you back to center with real, honest steps that worked for me when I needed them most. If you've ever hit a point where you feel totally disconnected from yourself, you are not alone. I recently found myself there after a super fun but unexpectedly exhausting trip, and I had to intentionally work my way back to feeling like “me.” In this episode, I share five things that helped me recalibrate and start moving forward again. I hope these ideas support you, too, when you feel off track. Action Plan: 1 - Stop and listen: Pay attention to the signals your body and mind are sending before they escalate. 2 - Remove what's misaligned: Say no to the things that feel heavy, even if they're small. 3 - Really, truly rest: Let go of the urge to push and give yourself time to recover. 4 - Offer yourself grace: Reframe negative self-talk with truths and compassion. 5 - Own your energy: Acknowledge your role in your overwhelm so you can choose differently going forward.

The latest nation's report card shows that American children's reading skills reached new lows, while there is a debate about the best way to teach reading in school. Maya Payne Smart is a writer, parent educator, and literacy advocate argues that America's reading crisis begins well before children enter kindergarten. She says it starts at birth, which is why she wrote a step-by-step guide for parents to do what it takes to set their children up to thrive as readers from day one to early elementary school.

In this episode, I talk about the idea that we can hold two seemingly opposite truths at the same time - and how that can actually be where our real growth and success as entrepreneurs live. I'm so glad you're here for another mindset-focused episode of Eat Blog Talk. Today, I'm diving into a topic that's been heavy on my heart lately—duality in entrepreneurship. As entrepreneurs, we often think we have to fix our flaws before we can feel successful, but what if it's actually about holding space for both our strengths and imperfections? I'm sharing a story from the Flavor Media Summit that beautifully illustrates how powerful it can be to embrace the “both/and” in ourselves. Action Plan: 1 - Acknowledge duality in your journey: Notice when you're feeling two things at once and give both feelings permission to exist. 2 - Resist the urge to fix yourself first: You don't need to wait until you're fearless or confident to move forward—just start. 3 - Stay present in your imperfections: True success comes from showing up, even when things feel messy or imperfect. 4 - Honor your contradictions: You can be both proud and nervous, grateful and overwhelmed—this is normal and powerful. 5 - Practice naming the dualities: Say them out loud or journal them—“I am both X and Y”—to build resilience and self-compassion.

This episode explores why the most transformative growth happens after the end of an event (like conferences, masterminds or retreats) - and how to harness that energy intentionally. I just got back from the Flavor Media Summit in Savannah, and wow—what a whirlwind! Today I'm sharing from the heart while everything is still fresh. It's so easy to think the big work happens in the room—at the conference, on the Zoom call, during the retreat—but the truth is, the real transformation begins after you leave. I'll walk you through what that means and how to take meaningful steps forward once the initial energy fades. Action Plan: 1 - Pause and Reflect: Take intentional time to slow down and journal on what moved you the most from the experience. 2 - Choose One Anchor Action: Pick a single powerful idea and commit to it—don't overwhelm yourself with too many goals at once. 3 - Follow Up on Relationships: Reach out to people you connected with and nurture those new or deepened relationships. 4 - Protect Your Post-Room Energy: Carve out space to stay aligned and avoid tasks that drain your soul. 5 - Reframe the Crash: If you feel depleted, it's a sign of growth—honor that expansion instead of judging it.

Love isn't supposed to fade—it's supposed to grow deeper. But let's be honest: over time, routines settle in, life gets busy, stress weighs heavy, and the spark can feel like it's flickering. Passion can grow cold. Intimacy can become infrequent. Even emotional connection can feel distant. But that's not the end of the story. God knows how to rekindle what's gone quiet.Our springboard for today's discussion is:"Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth! For your love is better than wine." — Song of Solomon 1:2The Song of Solomon isn't just poetry—it's a picture of delight, pursuit, longing, and love between a husband and wife. And it shows us that God values passion. He created it. He designed intimacy. And He's not surprised when it dims—He simply wants to restore it.Reigniting love God's way starts with remembering why you fell in love. Go back. Remember the joy, the tenderness, the pursuit. Reflect on the way you used to talk, touch, laugh, and dream together.But here's the key: reigniting love requires intentionality. Passion doesn't return by accident. It returns through investment—spiritually, emotionally, and yes, physically.Start small:* Speak words of affection—daily, sincerely.* Make time for undistracted connection—no phones, no work talk.* Initiate prayer together—because spiritual intimacy unlocks emotional intimacy.* Revisit what stirs joy in one another.Don't wait until the perfect moment. Create it. Don't wait until the emotions return—cultivate them through faithfulness and affection.And if wounds or distance have built walls, ask God to tear them down. His love has a way of awakening what feels lost.Question of the Day:What one intentional step can you take this week to reignite connection in your marriage?Mini Call to Action:Plan one act of intentional love today—write a note, speak a blessing, set aside time for uninterrupted conversation. Then ask God to breathe life into it.Let's Pray:Father, reignite what has grown dim. Restore laughter, passion, and connection in our marriage. Teach us to love with purpose and pursue one another with grace. May our love reflect Your pursuit of us. In Jesus' name, amen.Let's Get To Work!A burning love isn't found—it's built, brick by brick, in the presence of God.Support MyR2B Ministries:MyR2B Ministries is our full-time ministry.

Here's a simple 5-step method I created to help stay calm, present, and grounded when you're facing uncertainty and bracing for the unknown. In this episode, I'm diving into a mindset strategy that helped me through a really intense week filled with anxiety and uncertainty. When life feels overwhelming and fear creeps in, it's so important to have a simple plan to stay grounded. I'll walk you through the exact five steps I used to calm my mind, stay present, and truly enjoy the moments that mattered most. If you ever find yourself stuck in a cycle of worry, these steps will help you find your way back to peace. Action Plan: 1 - Acknowledge your awareness: Notice when your mind is jumping ahead to worst-case scenarios — awareness gives you back your power. 2 - Set a clear intention: Decide to stay grounded and present, even when challenges are looming. 3 - Focus on your breath: Take three deep, intentional breaths to signal to your body that it's safe. 4 - Tune into your senses: Name three things you can see, hear, or feel to anchor yourself to the present moment. 5 - Redirect your thoughts: Practice gratitude, flip a negative "what if" into a positive one, and envision something you're excited about.

A practical guide to reframing negative thought patterns and inviting more joy, peace, and success into your daily life through intentional mental shifts. Today, I want to dive into the way we talk to ourselves and the narratives we create in our minds. Our brains are naturally wired to focus on the negative—but here's the good news: we have the power to rewrite that narrative. In this episode, I'm sharing five transformative strategies to help you reframe your thoughts and invite more joy into your everyday life. Action Plan: 1 - Flip the “What If” Spiral: Challenge negative what-if scenarios by intentionally creating positive, empowering alternative narratives. 2 - Rewrite Your Personal Stories: Recognize that the stories you tell yourself are often assumptions, and consciously choose more compassionate interpretations. 3 - Refuse Negative Talk: Disengage from gossip and complaints, instead redirecting conversations towards positivity and inspiration. 4 - Shift “I Have To” to “I Get To”: Transform obligations into opportunities by reframing mundane tasks as privileged experiences. 5 - Replace Comparison with Inspiration: When you catch yourself comparing, pause and ask how another's success can motivate rather than discourage you.
