What if the edge you're searching for isn't outside of you—but already within? I sit down with Gina Tucci-Karnisovas—mental strength coach and former competitive athlete—to explore the often-overlooked drivers of sustainable performance: breath, presence, visualization, and grounded confidence. Gina shares how embracing both “white belt curiosity” and “black belt strength” helped her navigate intense performance anxiety and how that mindset now shapes her work with elite athletes and high performers.

It's not just hair. Did you know, the way you care for your hair is the way you care for yourself. For many Black women, our hair is more than just hair—it's a reflection of identity, culture, and self-love. In this powerful episode, hosts Alechia and Dani sit down with Adria Marshall, CEO and founder of the clean haircare brand EcoSlay, to unpack the complex relationship Black women have with their hair and how learning to love and nurture it can transform the way we see ourselves. Adria shares her journey of creating EcoSlay and why using products that are safe, effective, and made with intention matters. She opens up about the emotional weight hair can carry, from societal pressures to personal insecurities, and how changing the way we talk to ourselves—and our hair—can heal more than just our strands. Alechia and Dani also reveal their own experiences with natural hair, including the struggles, setbacks, and the patience it takes to embrace every stage of the journey. Together, they dive deep into how our inner dialogue often sabotages our self-confidence, and why it's time to hype ourselves up with the same energy we give to our friends. ✨ You'll Learn:

Stress isn't just about being busy or overwhelmed it often comes from emotions like fear, guilt, and sadness. These feelings can quietly affect your body over time, leading to things like low energy, poor digestion, or even chronic health issues. Understanding where stress comes from can help you start making small changes that really matter.One way to feel better is by shifting how you think about things.

I saw a recent post, again from a former student of mine, that opened up my eyes to catch the lessons that they are sharing. Kiara shared how she needs to keep being a bit nicer to herself as she looks back a bit to see that she has accomplished quite a lot over the last couple of years. That her goals keep evolving, as she does too. This is a lesson that I needed to see, when I needed it and her post helped with it. The quote that came with her thoughts was this: “I'm not everything I want to be yet, but I'm a lot of things I wanted to be 2 years ago, and what a wonderful thing it is to realize that.” Yep… I needed to realize this too!

The Voice In Your Head #RTTBROS #Nightlight The Voice in Your Head"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." - Philippians 4:8You know, there's a voice that talks to you more than any other voice in your life. It's not your spouse, not your boss, not even your mother-in-law. It's that voice inside your own head, the one that never seems to take a break. The question is, what is that voice saying to you?I heard about a study once where researchers found that the average person has about 12,000 to 60,000 thoughts per day. Now that's a lot of chatter going on upstairs! But here's the kicker, they discovered that about 80% of those thoughts are negative, and 95% are repetitive. That means most of us are like a broken record, playing the same discouraging tune over and over again.I think about David in the Psalms. Here was a man who knew something about battling with his own thoughts. In Psalm 42, he's having a conversation with himself, asking "Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me?" But then he does something powerful, he preaches to himself: "Hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance."You see, David understood that sometimes you've got to take charge of that voice in your head. Sometimes you've got to be your own preacher and remind yourself of what's true instead of what you're feeling.I learned this lesson the hard way years ago when I was going through a particularly difficult season in ministry. Every morning I'd wake up and that voice would start in on me: "You're not cut out for this. You're failing these people. You should just quit." It was like having a bully living rent-free in my brain.But then I started doing what David did. I began to talk back to those thoughts with Scripture. When the voice said "You're a failure," I'd counter with "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." When it whispered "Nobody cares about you," I'd remind myself that "God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son."The truth is, we all struggle with negative self-talk. Some of us are harder on ourselves than we'd ever dream of being on our worst enemy. We'd never let someone talk to our children the way we talk to ourselves. But here's what I've learned, too soon old and too late smart: you have more control over that inner voice than you think.Paul gives us the game plan in Philippians 4:8. He doesn't say "try not to think negative thoughts." Instead, he tells us what to fill our minds with: things that are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, and of good report. It's like changing the radio station from a talk show full of criticism to beautiful music.Friend, that voice in your head doesn't have to be your enemy. With God's help and His Word, it can become your greatest encourager. Start today by asking yourself: what am I saying to me? Then choose to speak truth over your life, because history is just HIS story, and you're honored to be a part of it.Prayer: Father, help me to take captive every thought and make it obedient to Christ. When my inner voice speaks discouragement, remind me to speak Your truth instead. Fill my mind with thoughts that honor You and build me up according to Your purposes. In Jesus' name, Amen.Be sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out.https://linktr.ee/rttbros
Send Rachel a text message.Be mindful of your self-talk, it's a conversation with the Universe. —David James LeesThis podcast episode focuses on negative self-talk, exploring how destructive internal dialogues are learned, not inherent. Rachel provides a four-step process to transform negative self-talk:1. Awareness without judgment: Notice the critical inner voice without self-criticism2. Identify the source: Recognize that negative thoughts often come from external influences, not your true self3. Call in the Highest Self: Connect with your inner wisdom and eternal consciousness4. Rewrite the script: Replace negative thoughts with compassionate, validating statementsThe episode emphasizes that the inner critic is not bad, but scared, and should be met with curiosity and compassion. Rachel uses the Cherokee tale of two wolves to illustrate how we choose which internal voice to "feed"—the one of fear or the one of love.Key MessageYou are not your negative thoughts.

Our mind can be our worst enemy, the invisible opponent who keeps us from staying in the battle with our visible opponents. We need to learn to pay attention to how our internal voice is talking to us. Does it tell us that we are a loser, does it call us stupid, or insist that we give up? If so, we really need to take control of our self talk, to focus of positive thoughts, encouragement, and hope. Persons of conscience in this time of great social struggle have to remain "cheerful" as we continue to fight the good fight.
