Hey lady! You know we couldn't end June without getting our groove on to celebrate Black Music month! June is the official month for the songs that have enriched our lives in times of sorrow and joy. Black music has been monumental as a soundtrack for many of the liberation movements for our people and as endearing as spending a Saturday morning helping your mom clean up the house. So, this week Terri and Dr. Dom talk about the beauty of Black music and the way music can transport you to spaces where your imagination can run free, your heart can find comfort, and your feet catch the beat. Spaces where you can mourn the breakup and relationship, the loss of a loved one, or the loss of self. Black people have used our music to keep us moving forward, overcoming and thriving and that is worthy of celebrating!Listen all the way through for a fun challenge Dr. Dom and Terri have for you and then join us on Instagram and give us your answer. We're so looking forward to creating a Black music playlist with our community!  Quote of the Day:“Through every generation, Black music has been our healing, our protest, and our celebration all at once.” – Unknown  Goal Map Like a Pro WorkbookCultivating H.E.R.

Hey lady! Have you ever considered where your beliefs come from and, more importantly, why you hold on to them so dearly? If you're not aware it is not a coincidence that you have certain thoughts programmed into you. In fact, there are studies that certain patterns of belief and trauma can be passed through the generations. Epigenetics, the study of how behaviors and your environment can affect genes, is an area where medical professionals are starting to experience breakthroughs. They're discovering that coupling this study with the study of neuroplasticity, the phenomenon of the brain reorganizing itself to form new neural pathways and adapting to new experiences, is a powerful path to healing.Enter Daria Burke. Daria is a powerhouse of a woman who's career has spanned from award-winning business leader to author. She joins Dr. Dom and Terri this week to discuss her new book, part memoir, part methodology Of My Own Making to share her journey through healing from a rough childhood and traumatic car accident to finding her unique voice and sharing it with others. Daria offers perspective on how using the wisdom from epigenetics and the tools that neuroplasticity offer as roadmap to a healing plan that is authentic to you.

Hey lady! It's strange times filled with a lot of uncertainty but one thing we know for sure is that we will get through all of this with strong community. This week Dr. Dom and Terri discuss some of the factors that got us to reckon with the fact that there is an uprising of people reporting feelings of loneliness and being alone. While those are natural feelings from time to time you can mitigate them long-term with a strong diverse community. We're not talking about people you can post on Instagram, although that can be a part of it, we're talking about the relationships that you intentionally cultivate that fit perfectly with your life. Are you a budding yogi and find it a central part of your self-care practice? There is someone out there with the same interest. Do you crave differing perspectives and rigorous debate about ideology? There's a community out there waiting for you to join them.The truth is while loneliness may be on the rise, there are people out there for you. And, as the world continues to reel from massive changes finding people that get you and care about you will be all the more necessary. Do yourself a favor a tune in to today's episode for practical tools on building your community. Some of these may stretch you or push you or feel edgy, but that is the work. It's putting your authentic self out there so that your people can find you.

Hey lady! As you continue to think deeply about how you want your life to look and feel, have you considered how much intimacy plays a part in your relationships? This week, Dr. Dom and Terri expound on the ways intimacy serves as the bedrock for fulfilling relationships of all stripes.

Hey lady! This week Dr. Dom and Terri up the conversation around wellness with a friendly reminder that you are ALWAYS your best investment. The ladies offer up smart advice about utilizing your paid time off, also known as PTO, to help boost your wellness for whatever you may need.Even if you don't have a formal PTO employment situation, Terri and Dr. Dom have practical tips on how thorough planning and thinking ahead can help stave off burnout and lead you to the life of your dreams.There are many emotions and misperceptions about taking time off from work and life obligations. And, those factors can cloud your judgment with what you feel you may need. After all, when you've been conditioned to be Superwoman it's easy to accept nothing less from yourself. But, when the goal is not for you to realize you need time off when your body starts to tell you…or worse starts breaking down from neglect. The goal is to bake in all of the time you need along the way so that you can live your healthiest and most fulfilled life. Tune in this week for a roadmap to making sure that you are running on a full tank and offering the best of you to…YOU. Lady, we love you and want you to know that you are worthy of divine rest. It's ok to take a break. You deserve it! Quote of the Day:Taking PTO is not a luxury; it is a necessity. Taking care of yourself is not slacking; it's strategy. – Patrice Harrell-Carter  Goal Map Like a Pro WorkbookCultivating H.E.R.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Brittany Tolliferreo. She is a native of Pennsylvania, a serial entrepreneur on a mission to change the restaurant industry, and one of just a few women of color to open and operate a successful franchise. She has done this despite not receiving funding from banks and using her own resources. Tolliferreo said she first thought about opening Chick-A-Boom a few years ago when she had some friends over to her house and made chicken sandwiches for them. After receiving some positive feedback about the food, Tolliferreo noticed a vacant storefront in her hometown of Folcroft, near the Philadelphia airport and about 15 miles from the city’s downtown area. In 2019, she contacted the building’s realtor and opened the first Chick-A-Boom restaurant…and as they say the rest is history.

Hey lady! How has cuffing season been treating you? Are you boo'd up and keeping cozy, or is your bed cold and it has you feeling a way? This week, Terri and Dr. Dom dive into the difference between being alone and loneliness and why the feelings of the latter may cause us to operate from a place of lack and find ourselves in less than desirable circumstances.While it may be hard to go through life when you yearn for a relationship, there's good reason to find the abundance around you so that desperation doesn't rear its ugly head and you wind up with someone you normally wouldn't give a second look. This means looking at who is in your life and why, and then listening to your internal voice to get an accurate assessment of if it's the right relationship for you. Taking stock of your relationships isn't about keeping your heart in a safehouse far away from the possibility of being hurt. Instead, it empowers you to be honest about where you are in life and see if who you are dealing with aligns or not. When you operate from a place of loneliness it is entirely possible for you to settle for less than what you deserve, which is why you arm yourself with a gameplan to keep the blues away. Want more tips for your toolkit? Head to the Aftershow where Dr. Dom and Terri offer seven tips to help you move from a point of loneliness to a place of personal power. Quote of the Day:"Until you get comfortable being alone, you'll never know if you're choosing someone out of love or loneliness." – Mandy Hale  Goal Map Like a Pro WorkbookCultivating H.E.R.
