Happy February everyone!   This month we are taking break from the competitive format (and not because of hurt feelings or gloating). Brian, Chris and I have simple discussion of vascular limb injuries and the treatment of VIP patients in the great equalizer that is the emergency department. We’ll be back next month with more competition in a special resident vs resident episode!   The AZEMCast Team  Email: aleetch@aemrc.arizona.edu Twitter: @arizonaemcast   https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/arizona-emcast/id685439303?mt=2 https://azemcast.podbean.com/feed/

Episode 238 Happy February 15th!! Ready for more of the good stuff!? This week is asking you to keep the positivity going and remind you that you're doing great! FEBRUARY 15 ENERGY FORECAST: 2. Breakthrough: Keep on going! You’re right there! Keep on going! You’re on the verge of a huge breakthrough! Embody the best you possible...aka your highest self. What does a successful person act like? Now, close your eyes and embody their behavior, attitude, and demeanor. Then shift your actions to DO the things your highest self would do. Play the part today, not some day. Who are you not to? What you want also wants you. Ask yourself: “How much money/success/love can I tolerate?” ​ ​ 13. Simplify: “How can this be easy and fun?” Ease is not a 4-letter swear word! You might be in a little pickle, friend. Please close your eyes and simply ask, “how can this be easy, how can this be fun?” What comes up for you? Frequently, we think we HAVE TO launch a certain way, but just because that’s the norm, doesn’t mean that’s the only way. You deserve for things to be easier, but you must choose ease daily. Struggle is a choice as much as ease is a choice. Nothing is happening TO you, it’s all happening THROUGH you. If you think life/work/family is hard, it’s time to shift your story. Enjoy this moment, invite more well being into your day, and so be it! 39. Guardian Angels: Infinite support is here You’ve been working so hard! When you pull this card, 100 guardian angels appear around. Allow them to alleviate your anxiety, worry, doubt, and stress. Take a deep breath and know that you’re taken care of today and every day. Even though they’re invisible, your guardian angels are always here to surround you and infuse you with unconditional love.

Episode 236 Happy February 8th!! Are you ready for a spirit pep talk!? GOOD- cuz this week is all about making sure you know you're AWESOME!Are you ready for a spirit pep talk!? GOOD- cuz this week is all about making sure you know you're AWESOME! FEBRUARY 8 ENERGY FORECAST: 31. On fire: Everything is working exactly as planned. You’re doing exactly what you should be doing and everything is working exactly as planned. If you have any tiny bits of doubt, please release them to your angels now. You’re fully in alignment and things are moving easily and effortlessly, don’t question it, just enjoy! All of your hard work is paying off! ​ ​ 3. Crystal clear: You can BE it If you can see it, you can BE it. There is nothing you can not have. Release control of how things should be and allow the universe to orchestrate the most incredible life full of miracles. Make sure you give thanks and celebrate all the tiny micro-wins, as the universe is showing you that it’s all happening with little energetic breadcrumbs. Don’t take them for granted - it’s all happening! Take a look around and find evidence of it working! 19. Integration time: Plan to rest If you’re afraid to take your foot off the business gas pedal this is your first warning sign you need rest. The Universe is telling you THIS is the time you’re supposed to be taking a break! You don’t need to take 2 weeks off to Bali, but you do need to book a massage, energy healing, a walk-in nature, a visit with friends, a solo lunch date, or simply a couple hours “off”. It’s in the “exhale” when we get the most amount of inspiration and alignment. You’re literally hustling yourself OUT of business!

Happy February! It's been a while since we've had an episode with just the members of JAM! At this point, we have cleared the infamous 'year of pain' that is comprised of spring of D1 and fall of D2 year, when the didactic portion of dental school rained down heavily upon us. In that time, we experienced many 'firsts'. First local anesthetic injections on each other. First prophy appointment. First time using a handpiece on real teeth and applying sealants. First shot of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. And for Jake... his first kiss. Whew! What a time! We're just jesting on that last point... or are we? Listen to find out... We also share some of our own shifts in mindset towards dental school - new goals, so to speak. Four years is a long time, and interests and priorities are bound to shift. Perhaps it will be fun to listen to these thoughts even later this year to see what else has changed.In any case, we hope you enjoy this episode. Cheers!

Happy February! We start Eye on the Outdoors by celebrating February birthdays and a restaurant review. Later, Vogler has some announcements.

Happy February and Happy Black History Month!!! Although BHM is every month, we wanted to take the opportunity to give a little lesson in history and honor the amazing women who have made a life-changing impact on not only Black women, but for all women for generations to come. They possess the true spirit of what it means to be a Tired Girl and there's much more we can learn from their success stories and the legacy. As Tyler Perry says, there are other people who are tied to your dreams. These women had a deep understanding of that and were dreamers who committed to a cause that was bigger than themselves. We at Tired Girls Inc. are so grateful for these fearless leaders who risked everything to make their dreams come true and paved the way for the rest of us Tired Girls. It’s a reminder to never give up on our dreams because you never know what inspiration it can spark for others to do the same and ultimately change the world for the better.

Happy February, someone let me off this ride. A lot of smart people have argued that prehistoric human societies were more matrifocal, more cooperative, and less violent. These same smart people also theorize that many (if not most) primitive societies featured a religion based around ideas of fertility and motherhood. While y’all may are not be here for gendered interpretations of what defines fertility, sex, pregnancy, childbirth, and crops, we here at BYWAP can assure you that this is one hell of a goddess roundup. Join us as we celebrate our queen, The Venus of Willendorf; yell about gender, and gendered language, and the limits of academic creativity for naming; stare in awe and terror at half of these hot girls who do hot shit; and appreciate the line “clearly depicted sexual attributes suggest that they are a direct or indirect expression of fertility” from archeologist Nicholas Conrad, who we dunk on for nearly this whole episode.

Happy February! Yes, can you believe it? We’ve already completed the first month of 2021. I hope you’re still feeling excited and encouraged for the year to come because you have SO much to do and lots of money to make.For me, February has historically been a slower month for sales. I’ve been in the e-commerce game for coming up on a decade, and year after year, this has stayed consistent. It can be easy to get complacent around the “slower” months and just accept that you won’t make as many sales, but if there’s anything I’ve learned throughout the years, this is the exact time to push against that mentality. YOU get to decide how successful you are!To help push past the sluggishness of this time of year, I brought on Bryan Bowman to reenergize our resolve and make more money this month.

"On the 21st day, of the 21st year, of the 21st Century, Noah Jon Weatherspoon Greeted us!" her caption read. T.I. and Tiny that has captured the attention of many people. If you do remember, earlier last week, Sabrina Peterson (Tiny's friend) alleged that T.I. had put a gun to her head, and Tiny responded to the allegation. Now T.I. and Tiny are speaking out in response to the allegations. In a statement released to Complex from a spokesperson, they said in a statement: "Mr. and Mrs. Harris want to be on record and, more importantly, want the public to know they emphatically deny in the strongest way possible the egregiously appalling allegations being made against them by Sabrina Peterson. The Harrises have had difficulty with this woman for well over a decade. They are taking this matter very seriously." As always, your comments, feedback & love is always welcomed and appreciated.

Hey TTSP tribe, Happy February 1. I felt this week that I should get on and share with you in real time, some things I'm learning in my life as I'm in the process of "Picking up the Pieces" after a very difficult 2020. If I'm being open, which I try to be on this platform, 2020 was a year of loss. I lost a dear family member, I lost my job, I lost an opportunity to travel to Uganda, I lost a relationship, and I truly lost life as I had known it. This isn't a pitty party, in fact, looking back I can see a lot of silver linings in a very dark season, and I will be the first to confirm that God is faithful. But that doesn't mean I don't feel all the feelings, and even in 2021 I'm still feeling all the feelings. I have good days, and I have bad. Some days I want to crawl into a hole and never come out, can anyone relate? But here's the deal. It is human to feel the feelings: hopelessness, sadness, pain, anger, depression, hurt, betrayal. So yes, I give you permission to feel. We must, we have to. However, we can't stay there. Once we start to feel these feelings, we are at such a vulnerable state to allow fear and doubt to creep in. And when that happens, and isn't dealt with, our lives look pretty grim. Let's take a look at Joseph in the Bible. Put yourself in his shoes (that's empathy by the way, a gift/tool essential to have in this life). Yes, he was a bit cawky. And yes it was probably his arrogance and pride that started off the chain of events: oh you know being sold into slavery to a foreign country, being accused of rape when you actually ran away, being thrown in prison for the rape that you didn't do, and then forgotten by the guy who promised to help get you out. Yea, I could imagine that Joseph felt all the feelings. I could imagine Joseph's struggle. I could imagine the hopelessness Joseph must have felt. But what I love about this story, is we know that God used EVERY season of Joseph's life to help cultivate him into the man God had intended him to be. God doesn't waste a season. God doesn't waste pain. How do I know this? Well Joseph's story starts off at "Look at me brothers" as he showed off his beautiful coat to a jealous group of brothers, who yes, then took their jealousy to the extreme. Pretending your brother was murdered by a wild animal when you actually sold him instead is never a good idea. But when Joseph, after years in prison falsely accused (remember?), was called into Pharaoh's court to interpret Pharaoh's dream, Joseph had grown, he matured. Old Joseph would have responded..."Pharaoh, my man, it is I, Joseph son of Jacob, that interprets dreams and they come to pass, pretty cool right?". Or he could have been bitter Joseph, "Pharaoh, it's about time. Before we get to your dream, let's talk about all the ways I've been wronged..." But instead we see the "new" Joseph. "Pharaoh, it is not I that interprets dreams but God". Read more here

Happy February! We've got DJ Love and DJ Cupid in the house... but we rewound live radio so we're actually not sure those are the final names we're going with.

Definitely make sure you listen to the very end for some especially mind-blowing stories. We'll give you some hints, they involve the Zodiac Cypher and Zak Bagans! It was just a real dealer's choice this month and Eva was the dealer.

I am super excited for Season 2 because we are still bringing tons of great tips, strategies, and opportunities to take the lead in your life so that you are creating the impact you want every day, and we are going to kick it up a notch!   Season 2 will have us digging deeper and raising the bar, it will be about sustaining your leadership and bringing others with you.  It will be about amazing leaders developing leaders, and it will be about contribution.  This season is going to take Entrepreneurs, businesses, and individuals seeking self-improvement to the next level and I am absolutely here for it. With that welcome to Season 2!   Before we get started, I want to give a huge shout out and congratulations to all of the leaders who have stepped into LIFt the Leadership Impact Forum.  We just completed our two-day immersion, and they are pumped and ready to create amazing impact in their lives and the lives of others.  I am so humbled to get to be Coach for them as they take on the next 10 weeks creating their next levels.  The immersion weekend was so powerful, and I have tremendous gratitude and my heart is so full.  Stay tuned because I will be shouting them out as they LIFt!   As I have added the LIFt program to create an impact and contribution, I thought it would be a great time to start Season 2 with talking about creating Harmony in our life.  When our plates get bigger I often hear, “well just get a bigger plate”, and I really don’t subscribe to that.   We live in a society that asks us to go bigger, faster, stronger, harder.  Did anyone just flash back to the Bionic Woman and Bionic Man (shout out Lindsey Wagner and Lee Majors) or did I just super date myself?  Ok I digress….   As I am currently facing a full plate in which I will not go and grab the banquet platter, I have to keep reminding myself there is no such thing as balance, it’s a complete myth and I get to design harmony.  I also really feel like what’s occurring for one is occurring for all at some level, so thought you would love to visit the land of harmony with me, so let’s go!   Here are the highlights from this episode:   {3:41} How we don't need to go bigger, faster and stronger {5:01} Harmony is something we can design in our lives {9:45} A practice is only as good as a practice {11:12} When did you last feel balanced? {13:03} Having your priorities straight {13:33} 5 areas of priority: Self Spirituality Family & Relationships Career & Business Health (16:49} How to define your priorities within these areas {20:29} How your priorities help you set boundaries   To connect with Coach Kelly and for more resources please visit www.kellyjmobeck.com  follow on Instagram @coach_kellymobeck.

Happy February! Time for overpriced candy, cheesy romantic ads, and a serious talk about modern love magic. Specifically, why consent needs to be a part of it. (And of course, this is not to say that magic which seeks to circumvent or overwhelm free will does not exist or does not work. This is certainly a thing that exists. It’s well-established in quite a few old-world traditions like strega and curandero, among others, and even modern-day witchcraft books talk about persuasion and glamour and command magic. And all this is fine. I just want to be clear that I take personal issue when free will is undermined or ignored in love magic, specifically.)

To truly become the magnet you must feel unconditional love in your heart and allow it to expand within and all around you. A magnet never questions if it will attract another magnet, it just is. Who are you not to attract everything you desire? Your feelings are the magnet, so whether you’re feeling good or feeling bad, the universe doesn’t care, it will always deliver that to you.

Happy February everyone! The emergency medicine in-training exam is next week and we want to make sure you get a great score by covering 2% of the test in 30 minutes. Yes, yes, you’re welcome.   Now oncology is not a huge part of the exam but cancer patients are a common occurrence in the ED. Our biggest plea is that you be aware of the specific emergencies that relate to cancer and look for them. You can always phone your friendly neighborhood oncologist for help, but recognition is the first step in management.   Best of luck on the test!   The AZEMCast Team  Email: aleetch@aemrc.arizona.edu Twitter: @arizonaemcast   https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/arizona-emcast/id685439303?mt=2 https://azemcast.podbean.com/feed/

Episode 125 Happy February 17th! ​This week is a great reminder to just DO IT! That thing you've been putting off because of fear? DO IT. That product/service you've considered selling? DO IT! FEBRUARY 17 ENERGY FORECAST: ​20. Launch: NOW is the time It’s time to set your dreams into motion! Quit waiting for the “right” time, NOW is the time to take action. Your angels are asking you to finally set your intention of what you desire, imagine the best possible scenario, and allow them to orchestrate everything. Take massive aligned action every day towards seeing this goal come true! ​ ​ 29. Grounding: Refresh and reset One of my favorite things to do every day is to get outside and appreciate nature. Living in the northeast, the weather can be very up and down, but even if it’s chilly, I’ll take a break from work to walk around the block or even a lap around my backyard farm just to make sure I get to enjoy the day. Another benefit of going outside is to ground and refresh my energy. What do YOU do to break up your workday and reset? ​ ​ ​​28. Core Values: Hone in on your purpose and values Hone in on what it means to be you. The faster you can connect to your own purpose and values, the sooner you can implement them in your business as well. Once you have both of those, then you can attract a team that totally upholds those values as well. Quit getting annoyed at others who don’t “get it” when you haven’t made yourself clear. Make your expectations known. Be as direct as possible, no giving hints. People can’t read your mind. This is about taking full responsibility for yourself and your business. Are you dealing with a troubling situation? If you were the best in your field at what you do, how would you handle this situation right now? Start acting more like that person every day and your life will dramatically change for the best.

Welcome to The Link Up with Latesha. I am so excited to be back with you all today. Happy February. January was a long year. January was a long year. Like, why was January 565 days? If you're like me, you're probably feeling a sense of relief now that it is February. If you all have set New Year's resolutions and set New Year's goals, and maybe it didn't go as planned in January. I know mine didn't, so I'm here with you. Start over. Start over. It's okay. You can always pick back up and start over. I did not hit my gym fitness goals for January, but you know what? I have been in the gym for the past week and I feel wonderful. So focus on where you're going, not where you've been, all right? So what we are talking about today, we are talking about transformation. We're talking about the five I's of transformation. That is what the focus is. 2020 is going to be such a phenomenal, impactful year for many of us. This is going to be a year of change. I really believe that this is going to be a year of transformation. So no matter where you are in your professional journey, whether you are starting a business, wanting to take your side hustle into a full-time hustle, looking for a new career--new year, new career. Maybe you are trying to get promoted and move up, going after that big promotion this year, or maybe you just started at a company. You're really just trying to get your footing and you want to hit the ground running and do a great job. This, today's episode, is for every single one of you. Transformation is something that is important for me this year, because where I want to go is going to--in terms of my goals, my business goals, my personal goals, it's going to require a different version of me to get there. It's going to require a different level of discipline to get there. The motivation is there. Sometimes it's not though, which is why discipline is so key. [laughs] And it's going to require a different level of focus. If you feel like this is you, I think you will get a lot out of today's episode. This is actually going to be a two-part episode because there's so much meat and gems in here I don't think I can get this in just in one episode. So in terms of what I have going on--thank you for asking [laughs]--what you all should expect to see from me, at least over the next couple months, is still doing a lot of speaking engagements. If you are going to be attending the Black Enterprise Women of Power summit in Vegas, I will be leading a panel discussion and doing some on-site coaching. So that's in Vegas March 5th through the 9th, I think. Wonderful conference. I love going every--well, this is my second year going, but I love that conference, and I hope to see you there. So I'm still continuing to do a lot of speaking--I'ma pull up in your city. So, you know, if you or your organization needs a speaker, maybe leading an ERG discussion, a roundtable, keynoting, a workshop or anything related to career development, you know how to find me. My email is hello@lateshabyrd.com. Hit me up. So speaking of Black Enterprise Women of Power summit, I'll be in New Orleans in a couple of weeks speaking. I will be doing a workshop with the Charlotte Chamber of Commerce with their young professionals auxilary board. And outside of, you know--I'm probably leaving a couple of things out in terms of speaking. I'm speaking at a women's tech conference here in Charlotte here called Fleurix. But outside of speaking, I'm going to be--ah, man, I can't tell you guys too much just yet. Just know that one of my goals this year is to build an online shop where I will be selling a ton of digital products that will help you in your career. So you will see resume templates, interview guides, courses. I just did a LinkedIn course last week. That will be on my site up and running over the next week or two, so stay tuned for that. Let me know what you all want to hear from me. I'm planning on doing another digital course or masterclass on I believe interviewing, so more to come from that. I want to make sure that the information that I'm providing, the value I'm providing, to everyone is easily accessible so you can pick it up whenever you need it or whatever period of your career you're in. You know, I watn to be able to meet your needs and meet you where you are and provide that insight and value. So let's go ahead and hop into it for today. A lot of things to cover. I'm gonna be getting really personal about my journey and what I've been through to focus on this thing called, you know, a complete transformation. Over the past five years I have been on a quest to just change my lifestyle, change who I am, and it has definitely, you know, birthed a new person. I have grown so much since starting my business, since, you know, progressing throughout my career, being in different spaces, so I wanted to share a little bit about this. I actually did a keynote at UNC Chapel Hill for a women's empowerment brunch with about 120 undergraduate and graduate students and faculty, and in this keynote this is when I really shared the five I's of transformation. When we think about women's empowerment sometimes it can be--like, we think "Oh, we get cute, we get dressed up, and we just sit around and talk about how great the world is and we sing kumbaya and we tell everyone to do their best and "You'll be okay," right? So when I was asked to do this women's empowerment keynote--now, y'all know me by now. I'ma be really, really real. [laughs] Like, I am not going to sit up here and say, "You are gonna be great, and you just keep on going." Like, nah, bruh. You know? That's not me. So I wanted to kind of break it down in a way where this framework can essentially be followed by anyone if they're looking to not only feel empowered but they're looking to make a transformation. So going into it, like I said, today's part one, next time will be part two, so please listen to both. The first thing I want to say when it comes to women's empowerment is that--well, I don't even want to say women's empowerment because I know we have some male listeners out there. Shout-out to y'all. But empowerment in general, any time where I've really had to feel empowered or where I have felt empowered, I have been scared out of my mind. Why is an emotion that's supposed to feel so powerful also extremely scary at the same time? For example, the most empowering moments I have experienced have stemmed from me doing something completely out of my comfort zone. Breaking up with a boyfriend, leaving a job, [laughs] letting go of a toxic family member, right? Things that were supposed to be the most empowering have stemmed from me doing something completely out of my comfort zone, knowing that not only was it necessary but it was a requirement in order to get me to my greater self. So I personally think that empowerment is just a lot more than feeling empowered. It's really about pushing past the fear of failure, the fear of rejection, the fear of starting over. Not only is that empowering, but it's frightening, yet freeing, at the same time. So if we can be really real about empowerment, empowerment is not just waking up and feeling great about what you're doing. It's about pushing through the fear of the unknown. That's how you get to that point of feeling empowered. So I want you all, all of my listeners, to just think about a moment in your life when you had to push past the fear, you had to push outside of your comfort zone, and you felt although maybe really scared kind of going into it, you ended up feeling completely empowered after doing so. So just take a few seconds and think about that. “When was the last time I have pushed past my fear?” Was it negotiating salary for a job? Was it actually applying for a job? [laughs] Not being sure if, you know, you would hear back? Was it interviewing for a job? On the personal front, finally joining a gym… but actually, like, showing up to the gym, [laughs] and showing up consistently, or hiring a personal trainer. I mean, there's so many different ways where we all can feel empowered, but again, it takes us making a choice to do something maybe that we're not as familiar with. So my most empowering moment--and again, this was really when I began this journey of transformation. Again, transformation isn't overnight. It's gonna take years, years and years. So my most empowering moment took place when I turned 25. I was going through what some might call a quarter-life crisis... and yes, this is a real thing. [laughs] Career publication The Muse calls it "a period of intense soul-searching and stress occurring in your mid-twenties to early thirties, typically because you're feeling you're not achieving your full potential or you are falling behind." That's the definition of a quarter-life crisis, and according to The Guardian, a quarter-life crisis affects 86% of millennials who report being bogged down by insecurities, disappointments, loneliness, and depression. That is what they have said about the quarter-life crisis. So, like I said, it is a real thing. Anyways, I hit my quarter-life crisis and made a decision to embrace this newfound journey of transformation when I realized I just wasn't happy in my job, I wasn't fulfilled in my career, and yeah, I may have been getting paid--I was able to take trips with my girlfriends, I was able to pay my bills, you know, but I just was going through the motions of life, and I came to this realization that I wanted no more, and that's when I started to completely transform. So just for some context, I was 25 years old. I was working a boring corporate job. I was in a dead-end relationship. You know, my boyfriend was kind of schmoozing off of me. I worked and paid the bills, and he did not work... yeah, ladies, trust me, I've been there. Been there, done that. [laughs] I won't go into too much detail, but I was very unhappy in all facets. But the crazy thing was is that I was told "If you do all of these things, you'll be successful. You'll be happy. Go to school. Get the degree. Get your corporate job. Get a good man," right? So I went even further. I got a Master's degree, and I was working at one of the largest professional services firms in the world. I had bought a brand new car off the lot. I lived in a really cool loft. And from the outside in, it seemed like everything was great. Like, I would see people and they would say the usual "Oh, girl, you're killing it. You're doing your thing. I see you out here." Y'all know how we gas each other up, or people would say--this is my favorite one--"I see you out here living the life," right? [laughs] And I would just smile awkwardly and brush off their compliments, knowing that although their intention was to be thoughtful, they did not know that there was a mask on my face, and I was hiding behind a mask that portrayed a strong, ambitious, focused young woman, but on the inside I was actually confused, burnt out, and unfulfilled, wondering if all of her work was in vain. Have you all ever been hiding behind a mask for so long that it's like you put on this front that everything is going well on the outside, but you know that it's not, and then you also can feel guilty maybe about that feeling of unsatisfaction or unfulfillment. You can feel guilty about it. Like, "How dare--" And this is how I felt. Like, "How dare I be unfulfilled or unhappy when I have this wonderful job?" You know? I'm getting a paycheck, right? So I was wearing this mask. I was wearing this mask, so when people would say "Oh, you're living the life, and everything's going well," you know, you just smile, brush it off. I know I'm not the only one that's been there. But like I said, from the outside looking in, it all looked amazing, but from the inside looking out, man, I was hiding. I was hiding. So there's this book that I read called You Are A Badass: How to Stop Doubting Your Greatness and Start Living by Jen Sincero. I love, love, love that book. So when I decided to make the decision to start transforming my life, this book was something that truly, truly helped me. And so in the book she says that, you know, people don't deem themselves as creative. I used to be that person. Like, I have friends that are painters and writers and musicians and interior designers, and they seem to be super creative, and I would always tell them, like, "Y'all, I am not a creative person," and they say, "No, you are creative. What are you talking about? You create things for your business. You create ideas and strategies. Like, you area a creative." So in this book she says the people that they're not a creative person, everyone is creative. If you are alive, you're creating. You are an artist, and masterpiece is your life. Your world is the canvas. Your ideas are the sketches. Your thoughts, words, and attitudes are the paint. Your actions are the strokes. And if you don't like how your painting is turning out, you can evaluate your painting style or the tools you're using to figure out what needs to be changed in order to master and switch up your approach. So that being said, y'all, we are all creating our own reality. We are all creating our own future. And so from me a feeling that I could not go on anymore and I had to make some tough and hard decisions, plus the desire of really wanting to tap into my most fullest, truest, and highest self. This is when I started to make some changes, and I started to think about "What will not happen if I stay here?" Not what will happen, but what will not happen. And then often times we realize that we have so much more to gain than we have to lose. So since 25, if you guys have been listening to the podcast you know my journey. I changed careers completely, launched a busines, Byrd Career Consulting. We've served almost 1,000 professionals domestically and all over the world. Last year was a phenomenal year for me. I made 150 in revenue, projected on to earn a quarter-million this year, and since being committed to this journey of transformation, it's really brought me on some stages that I honestly would have never imagined, like being featured in Forbes, Black Enterprise, Vogue Business, Magazine [?], being able to speak with you all here on Living Corporate. I'm on NBC Charlotte once a month giving career tips, and I have helped a lot of people find their own way in their journeys and professional lives, but the most important thing for me now, five years in, is I have found my peace, I have found my purpose, and I have found my stride. So I want to go ahead and start breaking down the I's. I think I said the five I's earlier. My bad. It's actually six I's. [laughs] Six I's. So the first one, the first one is intention. Set a mental image of what you want to be. Before I kind of go into intention a little bit more, have you all heard about something called chronophobia? This is actually a real thing, and that is the fear of the future. That is the fear of the future. There is this--I'm on Twitter a lot, as you guys probably know by now, and so someone had Tweeted something and said, "Whenever I worry about the future, I remember that I make it myself." Whenever I worry about the future, I remember that I make it myself. I thought that was so profound. Just remember, yo, like, we create our own futures. You do not need to have chronophobia, the fear of the future. Not when you are responsible for creating it. And you don't have to accept the life that's been given to you. So to make a transformation, the first I is intention, setting a mental image of what you want to be. There is this quote that I heard, and I don't know who said it, I wish I could credit that person, but they said, "Visualize your highest self and then start showing up as her or him." So when I decided to embark on this journey of entrepreneurship, my goal at the age of 25 was to become the most well-known go-to person in my industry as a career coach. I wanted to be that person for all things career and professional development-related. Again, my business started as a hobby, y'all. I didn't know that this was what I would be doing. I did not know that this is what I would be doing. My business started as a hobby. It started as me helping those around me, and then I said, "Oh, more and more people want help with their resumes. I could make money from this." So I set the intention to become a business owner, and not just a person running a business, but an authority in this field. And so when I set that intention, I actually had to show up as that person that I wanted to be. That took me researching, reading up on anything career development related. I have so many books on career growth, on navigating corporate America. I started to brand myself as a speaker in this area. So it's all about intentionality. No one gave me permission to start this business. No one gave me permission to call myself a career coach. Now, keep in mind I do have certifications. I'm a certified career coach, certified life coach, so I'm not just out here calling myself a coach just because. [laughs] But understand that intentionality is important. We only have one life to live. And this actually will--when it comes to being intentional, yes, set that mental future image of yourself, but it's also going to take some vulnerability, you know? And that means knowing where you want to be and knowing where you are not and being really honest with yourself about what it will take for you to get there. So that's the first I, intentionality. The second I is initiative. So once you've set that intention, that second I is initiative. This is when you really need to start taking ownership of your career. I realized that in order to completely take the power back and get in control of my life I had to take some initiative, and Fast Company--there's an article in Fast Company that talks about how to feel less anxious about the future. One it's saying to be open to uncertainty, so once you take that initiative you have to be committed to the journey, not necessarily the destination, and be okay with, you know, the journey, knowing that the result may not go exactly as planned, but you have to be committed to the journey. When I set an initiative or a new thing, for instance, starting to launch these masterclasses, my first three were completely free. My last one I ended up charging for because I was giving out so much value, and I had to be okay with having one person pay, two people pay, or, you know, five people, but I was committed to the journey, not necessarily the result. So take initiative. Be open to uncertainty. The other thing is to let yourself imagine the best. Don't go into it having these self-limiting thoughts and beliefs, because we can be our own biggest enemies. Often times during my coaching sessions, my clients, I will tell them when they sound really discouraged or feel like giving up, "You are speaking and operating from a place of defeat, and that's not what winners do." So if you want to see a real transformation here, you have to let yourself imagine the best. So the first I intention, setting that intention, and the second I is initiative, actually starting to execute, starting to plan out that journey and, again, be committed to it. The third I is investment. So there's two kind of I's for this, but the third is investment and improvement. Those are my two I's for this. It was hard for me to choose between one or the other, but I said, "Oh, we actually need to invest in our improvement." [laughs] So it kind of goes hand in hand. So investment and improvement. Sometimes we may be really, really good at setting goals and setting that intention and taking initiative but then not staying committed. For those that may set New Year's resolutions, you know, it's now February 7th, so we're about, what, 38 days into the new year? Studies have shown that 90% of resolutions fail, okay? So as you all have been setting your goals, you're thinking about that future image of yourself, who and where you want to be by the end of this year, you are ready to take some action, you have to make sure that you are investing and improving every single day. Consciousness needs to change before your behavior can. Understand that. So your thoughts fuel your actions. Your actions become habits. Your habits become a lifestyle. Those things and goals that you want to achieve will be shown improvement through your everyday intentions, your everyday actions, but it first starts with the mindset. Are you scared of living up to the standard that you set for yourself? Because sometimes success is scary. For me, I come from a household where we didn't have a lot growing up, and so honestly when I hit my first six figures in business I was like, "Oh, shoot. I cannot--wait, what am I supposed to do? Oh, my gosh," you know? [laughs] And now it's kind of like, "Okay, six figures. Not a big, big deal." I mean, it is, but I got a lot of people I pay, other things I want to invest--you know, use to invest that money back into my business. Like, now I'm trying to make even more. Anyways though, sometimes success can be scary. The more attention and eyes on you, the more people looking up to you, more family members maybe asking you for money, right? So it's important to make sure that you are best investing in improvement, and I mean personal improvement. That book that I mentioned written by Jen Sincero, she talks about going into the spiritual gym. So she talks about studying self-help books, defeating self-defeat, meditating, listening to powerful podcasts or interviews or motivational speeches, journaling, making gratitude lists, exercising, listening to music that makes your soul feel good, you know? I love Lizzo. I love Solange. And I'm not gonna lie, I love Meg thee Stallion, and her music makes me feel empowered. [laughs] Even when I'm in the gym, like, that's basically what I listen to. Writing your goals down, reading affirmations and saying affirmations and affirming yourself. You have to make self-improvement a lifestyle, a lifestyle of daily improvement. So be committed to getting better each day, taking on each new day as an opportunity, but most importantly I want you all to, as you set your intentions and you think about taking that initiative and now you're investing into this daily improvement, take your goals and then break them down into actions, and these actions should turn into habits. You can set goals all day. You can set a goal of wanting to lose weight, but if that's not tied to any actions--and not just go to the gym and eat healthy, but where is your meal plan? What days are you going to the gym? How much time are you spending in the gym? What is your workout that you're doing? How are you able to make it easy in your life for you to do these things? I keep my gym clothes hanging up right by my mirror that's, you know, on my way out of the bedroom, so I'm reminded every time or every morning, "Girl, put them gym clothes on and go to the gym." So I'm gonna stop there for part one, so I will pick back up in part two. I hope that this is helpful, man. This is the six I's of transformation. We're trying to transform all 2020, so stay tuned for part two.
