I wanna talk to my ladies today!!! I know you've been hurt before and it's hard to open up. I've been with the same man every since I was 12 years old and it's still a process to COMPLETELY open up(but I'm working on it). I challenge you to LET LOVE IN. Love is such a gift from God. LOVE IS GOD!!
Give yourself a chance and forgive the man who hurt you. Rather it's your dad, brother, uncle, cousin, a man, EVEN if it's the man that you're STILL with. Let it go and let it in at the same time. I've experienced so many obstacles in my relationship but you must FIGHT for ANYTHING WORTH having.
Also, it should be your ABSOLUTE pleasure to cater to your man. Put the pride down and just love damnit!! Embrace life....all else is meaningless.
“It is better to lose your pride with someone you love rather than to lose that someone you love with your useless pride.”

You Choose What You Strengthen
Everyday I struggle with letting go of things that hurt me. It's a daily battle. However, in order to move forward and be the best YOU that you can be, you have to let go. Forgive that person. Forgive yourself. To forgive is to set the prisoner free and discover the prisoner was you.
I now realize that it wasn't even myself holding on to the pain, it's my ego. Ego means to Edge God Out!! No one is exempt from pain. No one is exempt from happiness. It is however....a choice. You choose what you give your power to. You choose what you strengthen. Move forward. Focus on what REALLY matters in life. Stop dwelling on what was!! People doing big things never made it sweating small things.

CHA-lle-NGE YOURSELF!!!!! IT CAN BE DONE
"CHA-lle-NGE yourself daily!!! There's a reason why "change" is in the beginning and end of challenge. In the middle, you will face "L's!!"
I'm just a chick from the ghetto with a dream. I promise you, in the beginning of pursuing your dreams, God/Universe will make a way for you. I finally surrendered and told myself I was ready to take my life to another level. This was in August when I made this decision. Since then, I've had Mashonda, Dondria, and soon to have Donell Jones, Angela and Vanessa Simmons on the show!!! How was that possible?!!?!!? The universe makes a way!!!! I promise you!!! Just trust God and push forward. He will not fail you. All of these interviews started with a simple thought. And they were booked shortly after. I remember saying to myself, ok, I got Mashonda now I wonder if I can get Angela Simmons, it was done 5 minutes after I put it in the universe. NO LIE!!!!
Some things you may have to work harder to get but the point of it all is to just go for it. I didn't go to school for any of this!!! I haven't been to 1 networking event(I plan to)!! But my point is, I'm a nobody in this industry. I don't have major pull. I'm not plugged. I'm just passionate and I know this is what I'm called to do. Therefore, it's unfolding right in front of my eyes!!
Remember: "What was is not what is. What is is not what will be. What will be is up to YOU"

6 Degrees of Separation to Angela Simmons
I believe in "6 degrees of Separation." We are more connected than we could ever imagine.
I also live by the quote "Trust that little voice inside that says "wouldnt it be interesting if"...THEN DO IT!!" And so here I am! I remember when I wanted to get Mashonda on the show, it started w a single thought..and it happened. She was a pleasure to have btw...so many emails of people confessing and being uplifted and renewed due to her testimony. That makes everything that I do worthwhile. I remember wanting Donell Jones on the show..He is now our Artist of the Month, October 6th!! So dreams can come true!!
Which leads me to my next wish, Angela Simmons!! I've gotten many request to have a show on young entrepreneurs with a positive influence. Who better than Angela Simmons? She was listed at Twitters #1 out of 100, Black Women of Influence. Her tweets are very inspiring and we all could learn a few things from her.
So here it is!! I'm putting the waves out to the universe that we can have her on EmbraceLifeRadio.com October!! If you're reading this and you can make that happen...we appreciate you. Contact us at EmbraceLifeRadio@gmail.com.

RESPECT the Hustle
Your friends/family love you but they don't respect you. Respect is earned. It's earned by production. Too often people are always speaking on what they're "about" to do. No one wants to hear what your plans are or what you're "about" to do. People don't care about your journey...they're more concerned w your destination. Keep your intentions to yourself and take action towards your goals. Baby step by baby step....day by day...little by little. It doesn't really matter the result....just take action and produce.
Want respect? TAKE IT!!! Nothing is Given.

What You Focus On...Increases
The only thing that matters is TODAY.
There's a lot of competition in the world. You have to understand that the only real competition that you are ever going to have is yourself. What God has for you is for you. Don't worry about what the next man has or how they are getting it. At times I find myself feeling intimidated b/c I feel as if I dont meet the standards or qualifications to become a success. That's a lie.
All you have to do is focus on being the best you that you can be. Being competitive can be healthy as long as you don't beat yourself up about it. Just know that you are you for a reason. So regardless of what you have or do not have, you can still overcome, you can still be all that you're destined to be. Focus on what you have, not what you lack. And things will get better.
Remember, "God always include the excluded"
Stay true to you. Don't change who you are to impress anyone. Know who you are...accept who you are....love who you are.
A wise man once told me, "Its not about how many initials are behind your name but what you do with your time"

Walking Alone Doesnt Make You Lonely
In the beginning of your journey to your dreams, you may feel alone, like no one understands, or may not receive as much support as you'd like. It's ok, its the price you pay for greatness. Know who you are, learn to embrace your journey alone, and keep pushing.
YOU REEEEALY HAVE TO KNOW YOURSELF. Know what you stand for and what you believe in. You can and you will do it b/c you are already "It." It's just a matter of time before someone notices it.
I was waiting for something to fulfill me....rather it was "ratings, numbers, acceptance from "popularity" or whatever it was. I learned that the time is now to embrace myself. To embrace the baby steps. Once you've arrived(whatever that means), you've already made it. Dont wait for that before you enjoy your journey now. NOW IS WHERE ITS AT!!!!
You also have to have blind faith. Know that God is working on your behalf, even when it doesn't feel like it or when it seems as if you're not on the winning side. You never know when things are gonna change for the better....keep pushing until........

Daily Inspiration
Sometimes you just need some daily inspiration. At times I wake up and watch this to get me going. How can you expect to be motivated and inspired if you're not nourishing your spirit. Just like you take a bath daily to stay clean, you have to constantly feed yourself positivity!! Anyhow, this has truly been inspiring for me and i hope that it does the same for you.
P.S. my favorite part is when he says once you know what you want, the universe opens up, it's like water!! This is true. I've learned that life is very simple. Not always easy but simple. Enjoy guys...embrace life with ambition

It Aint Her Fault
The day that we learn to come together as women is the day this world will be a better place. I can't understand for the life of me why us women bash one another. Its already a man's world but we have the power to rule it if we could come together.
FYI: If your man cheats on you and the other woman is not related to you...DO NOT BASH HER!!! ITS NOT HER FAULT!!!
The one you need to be bashing is your man. He was the one who wasn't loyal. Be careful how you choose your men. 9 times out of 10 you're messing with a gown boy. You can learn more about this on www.tonygaskins.com
A mature woman would handle things different. There is sooo much more to life than spending your precious time and energy criticizing the next woman. You're only hurting yourself!!! I promise you. #DontBeAFool
Women: BE ABOUT YOUR BUSINESS!!! Don't settle and if he can't give you what you deserve....move forward.
For the ladies out there who think having a baby will keep that man....THINK AGAIN!!! If anything it will push that man away. For the ladies out there who think losing yourself to find a man will be effective...THINK AGAIN!!!
Learn to love yourself. If you don't know where to start, start here. www.butilovememore.com . My homegirl Nova also on twitter @butilovememore can help you get started!!!
Also check out this site!!! It's been sooo much inspiration for me. I hope it inspires you as well www.weenonline.org

Role Models are Essential to Success
I believe everyone should have a role model. Someone they aspire to be. Who you look up to says a lot about your future. A lot of ppl don't draw inspiration from others and have no one to look up to. They say one of the key principles to success is to first imitate your role model and then become your own.
Examples, Nicki Minaj...Lil Kim. Oprah....Barbara Walters. <
I wanted to share my role models with you guys and hopes that you can draw strength and inspiration from them. My next post will be everyday role models who are striving to reach their dreams. Enjoy!!!
Of Course!!!! Ms. Oprah Winfrey.

I'm sure you need no explanation as to why she's my role model. The reason why I live in Chicago today is because of her. My ultimate dream and goal is to have my own segment on Oprah Radio. And it will happen!!!! :) She's missing one thing and that's a voice for the youth. I plan to fill that void.

THIS WOMAN HAS CHANGED MY LIFE!!!! Dani Johnson. She went from being homeless with $2.03 to her name to becoming a millionaire at 23!! check her website out www.danijohnson.com

1988 - Tupac Interview at 17 Years Old - Part 1
Happy Birthday Tupac Amaru Shakur!!!!! I have to say as we already know, he was one of the chosen few. Very authentic. He was far ahead of his time and unfortunately, he went through a tremendous amount of pain. However he paved the way for us. Check him out at 17, there's 4 parts..follow up on youtube for the rest.
Stop Judging Like Your Crap is Squeaky Clean
You never know what a person is going through. This day and age it's extremely childish to gossip or talk down on ppl. When ppl talk down on others or want to gossip about others, they are truly lacking something inside. It's childish. Instead of condemning the next person, pray for them and love them through it. We are all 1 event away from losing it!!!
Life is too short to worry about the next or spread hate. Love yourself and embrace your life. The next time you want to speak negativity on someone, flip it and think of something positive to say. Believe it or not, you make your life harder when you speak hate/gossip/talk down on the next. Keep it true to yourself and gv up the bullsh#t!!

DEMAND HOW U WANNA FEEL
Morn.ting ppl!!! Man today I woke up just not really feeling it!!! Like, I'm feeling it but you know what I mean, knowing you have to knock obstacles down and overcome and fighting for your life and yada yada!!!
But the bottom line fact of the matter is, everyday you're not gonna feel like spreading your wings. What's critical though, is pressing your way and forcing yourself to actually go for it. I had to press my way to my knees and pray. I had to press my way to be determined that I will win today and give it my best.
You have to keep the end result in mind and tell yourself constantly how you are going to feel!!!! Play some music, think about that result. Do not focus on what's in front of you. Yes today you will be rejected, THAT'S A PRICE YOU PAY FOR GREATNESS!!! Rejection=perfection.
This lady has changed my life, i recommend her http://danijohnson.com <
We goin get there guys, forgive yourself, have patience, and know that God's timing is perfect!!!

SORRY LADIES, YOUR MAN CANNOT MAKE U HAPPY/THATS AN INSIDE JOB
I must have forgot who my source was. I must have forgotten where my strength lies. I must have forgotten that I can never be fulfilled through man. I love my boyfriend to death and God knows my heart. But what I was anticipating from my "boyfriend", NO MAN CAN FILL. God is good and I'm soooooo happy that all things in due time works itself out.
Give it to God. You can never be too cool or swagged out for God. He is the maker of all things.
See I've been anticipating my boyfriend's arrival for 6 years. We have a great friendship and working on our relationship. There's no coincidence that after all of this time, even my boyfriend refuses to give me what I thought I should have. Not because he doesn't love me but because he wants what's best for me and I love him for that!!!
I have soooo much work to do, however, I am forever thankful for this day!!! I am a new woman because of it. Ladies, we CANNOT "WAIT" for a man or anyone else to make us happy. Happiness starts from within. Once you learn to love yourself, you can love the next. If you're not complete w/n, ur relationship will never work. Don't worry about losing him and trying to keep him. Once you focus on you, he will chase the hell out of you, and if he doesn't...ON TO THE NEXT. Believe that all things work for your greater good. Focus on God and yourself baby and I promise you, IT WILL WORK OUT FOR YOU!!!!
So from this moment on, I'm putting my faith into God. This song by Monica helps me out so much. I hope it helps you the way it cleanses my spirit and helps me to get to that next level. Enjoy :)
MI FAV PART>>>> "So I hope you can forgive me/Im not gonna be the way that i use to be/starting over can be so scary/but im gonna beLIeVE/promise im not gonna let me down/and my transformations starting right now/but im really glad you stuck around/cause you believed in me"

ONLY YOU CONTROL YOUR DAY!!!!
Do you treat as a gift what you cannot get rid of? My pastor once asked me....pretty good question. Sometimes I feel like my gift is my curse. Well, I decided to get over it and see opportunity in it. I can't help that God created me but I can however, embrace it and live life. Anyhow, I'm a new person compared to 2 days ago. The struggle that I'm overcoming is that my feelings are not always gonna match my thoughts. In other words, I may be dealing with a sense of unworthiness inside while my mind is telling me I'm worth everything and more.
So I think a part of the solutions. You cannot wake up and not get on your knees and give God the glory. Ask Him to guide, guard, and direct your path. You have to nourish ur spirit and your mind. Rather its music, reading, excerise, meditation. you cannot just wake up and randomly live by default w/o pouring into yourself. A friend of mines shared this prayer. Do yourself a favor and copy this and recite it out loud and say it like you mean it. RECEIVE RECEIVE RECEIVE!!!
AFFIRMATION PRAYER
I cancel every negative word that has ever been spoken over me, by me
or anyone else! I declare that every curse that has come on me, my
family, or my finances is destroyed and reversed! I decree prophecy
over myself and family that we will serve GOd.
Salvation is mine, deliverance is mine, healing is mine, prosperity is
mine! The word of God is my guide and looses every good thing for my
Destiny. I am a lender, not a borrower! I am a unstoppable, problem
solving, obedient, tithing, child of God who will leave better today
becasue this Word will change my life forever! I am a Kingdom
citizen, with a Kingdom mindset, utilizing Kingdom principles allowing
me to operate on a higher plain. In Jesus name Amen!

The Little Girl Has Died
Reality Check? Wanna talk about it? Sometimes you need ppl who loves you to just tell you like it is....OUCH!!!
Well, I'm the spoiled bitch who sometimes feel like I'm exempt from the word "work"!!! NEWSFLASH: NO ONE IS EXEMPT!!!! We all have to contribute to this thing called life. I had to really get over myself and my spoiled ass ways!!! Im not God, Michelle Obama, or Oprah. I'm just not there yet. It's ok to have potential and know your worth but we all have to play a role and a part, and if you didn't earn that part, well guess what, it doesn't belong to you!!
I get it. I truly get it. It's called initiative, responsibility, ownership, stand up, make it happen......BECOMING A WOMAN!!! Today, yes today, God answered prayers. He finally did it. That little girl, filled w inadequacies, insecurities, irresponsibilities has died!!!! AND SHE'S NEVER COMING BACK.
She's still scared of some things....but what scares her most is being scared. So whenever she feels this, she kills her!! Pow Pow Pow!!! #ImReady

A Hard Head Makes a Soft Ass
"until you start creating planets, you have to follow the rules. NO ONE IS EXEMPT"
Idk maybe its my pride and you know what they say after pride...comes fall. There's a lot goin on in my life that soon i will be able to share. Those who know me know that I've been in love with my childhood sweetheart since like 11/12 years old, and i've been thru soooo much with him. He's been incarcerated every since i was 5 months pregnant and my son is about to be 6. I dont think it would have been as hard to hold him down, but being as though he's never had a sentencing date, he's just been fighting cases ongoing!!!! #ItsBeenHard!!! Because i dont consider myself to be like everyone else, I held mines down. I wasn't perfect but i definitely most definitely been loyal and I've never seen someone truly wait. So its been a lonely battle.
One thing that I pride myself on is being an open book. I want my people to feel me, the real me. So i will be sharing my story very soon. I have to say very soon because I have to see if it's ok with my hubby to just put everything out there...lol.
This is a part of me...oh so bk to the subject....ummmm yea, for some strange reason i wanna go against all the rules that were ever created as if i'll be successful at it. Nothing is on trial. God put us here to obey and embrace life...what is up with me that i just want to go against the grain? i tell u what, those who want to be hardheaded will end up 1 lonely person and we can't let that happen. So we goin get that together.
Ok, I promise i will keep this thing updated. Follow me ppl!!!!

I No Longer Need An Audience for Applause
It's been about 6 weeks since the launch of EmbraceLifeRadio.com(ELR) and things are coming together. I have such a long way to go but for the most part, I really can't complain. The thing that I'm most thankful for is I no longer look for ppl's approval or validation. I use to take it personal when certain friends or family didn't support the show. I now could care less and as a matter of fact, those who do not support the show, rather it be friend,family, enemy, I'm so much better w/o them anyhow. So it works in my favor.
When I did the interview with Mr. Tony Gaskins Jr, something really clicked for me. The interview was so natural and it felt like we were just having a conversation on the phone. It was then that I realized, the audience is forever gonna change, ppl are always gonna have their opinions, and it is just that, their opinion. Therefore, what matters most is that I enjoy my journey, alone, and whatever falls into place or happens, happens. I'm just embracing the now. No one can see your vision the way you do. Right now I'm at my rawest, naiivest form, and I love it!!!
Doing the show has been somewhat challenging. Having to focus on current circumstances outside of my dream and yet still find a way to pursue what i desire most, happiness. So i can say in all honesty, some of the shows that I've done, I haven't fully allowed myself to be into the now. My mind wanders, lol. But it's all love, I have faith and ambition that I will get exactly where I need to be.
I've felt fear, joy, anxiety, boredom, happiness, confusion, numbness(if that's a word), yet I still continue to push. There's so many great things in store for ELR and I'm planting my expectations. My dream is to have my own segment on Oprah and Friends Satellite, we will see what happens.
I now know that ppl tune in to make there lives better and b/c they appreciate my vision. At the end of the day, I can only be me. They either like it or love it. I assure you, I'm evolving daily.
I thank God that I no longer need an audience for applause b/c I continually give myself a standing O.
"If you care about what everyone else thinks of you, you make everyone your judge"

Start Where You Are, With What You Have, NOW!!!
Why wait for everything to go perfect and "according to plan" to execute? I have news for you Darling, LIFE WILL NEVER BE PERFECT!!!! But I'm sure you already knew that.
I must admit, I've been dragging my feet a bit b/c I've been waiting for this perfect potion motion miracle to take place. This too is meaningless. You have to start where you are, with what you have, NOW. RIGHT NOW!!!!!
Finally I did my first practice show for EmbraceLifeRadio.com, it was a total success. You wanna know why it was a success? Because I made it a success. I chose to have a successful attitude. I often times struggle with the fact that I'm not perfect. I want everything I do to turn to gold and it can happen...right after i fail a few times, get back up and try again. Repetition is the mother of skill.
Im so proud of myself because I didn't look for any excuse as to why i couldn't do my practice show today. Of course there were many obstacles. Of course I had to MAKE time for it. Being as though I'm a single parent and I have to make sure my baby and home is taken care of first. But you know what, that's life. If you want something bad enough you have to just go for it. Stop thinking and execute.
So anyhow, I got over my excuses, scheduled the show and had supporters from beginning to end. The craziest part about it all is that I got supporters from both friends and family. I got even more supporters from people that I did not even know or converse with on a daily basis. And that's ok as well. You were born alone and you're probably gonna die alone so you have to learn to be your own best friend. If you're expecting certain people to support you that you feel should be? My question to you is, "WHY?" The only support you need is yourself and God and He will provide.
ALL THE LIES I FED MYSELF
"No ones gonna call"
"What if you just be on there by yourself"
"It's not gonna be a success"
"I just dont have the time right now"
"Maybe next week...after I....."
THOSE ARE ALL LIES FROM THE PITT OF HELL. DONT LET FEAR CRIPPLE YOU!!!
As soon as I let go....I made room for a miracle to take place. I had a blast..kinks and all. I had a blast...going speechless and all. I know its meant for me to do this show because it just felt too natural.
I wanna thank all of my supporters. Im overwhelmed because you never ever know who's watching you. People are waiting for who you are to become. Let go and God and Embrace Life with Ambition. I promise you, you will love it. Follow your heart people.

The Daily Love has Given Me a New Found Hope
Thank God every day above ground is another day to get it right and my past doesn't determine my future!!!! Lately I've been lacking inspiration and I just couldn't figure out why or how to get it back. Well "What you focus on you get good at". Although I know so many of the infamous quotes and read all of the personal growth books, I admit that I was having a hard time applying them.
One thing that truly inspired me today was on twitter @ www.twitter.com/thedailylove it just hit me so hard today, thank you and I needed to hear that. It said, "I PRAYED FOR A MIRACLE AND REALIZED "I AM" THE MIRACLE" (this statement changed my life) (IF YOU'RE NOT FOLLOWING TDL, YOU'RE MISSING THE BOAT COMPLETELY!!!
One thing that I noticed is that I was focusing on what I didn't have as opposed to finding one thing that was going right and making it work for me. I'm in the process of getting my promo done for EmbraceLifeRadio.com and I admit I've been pretty discouraged because a lot of people have been dragging there feet in supporting me. Or not having the immediate funds, or connections, or whatever the stupid excuse was. Not realizing that it's my vision that God has created for me and to trust that He will provide, as He's been doing thus far. Also in the journey to greatness, people taking there time and dragging there feet is a part of paying your dues. I had to accept that although I have a powerful vision for the show, I'm not Oprah yet. I'm just not there yet in terms of "physical accomplishments" and I'm not respected in that aspect yet.
I would like to thank the ones who have supported me thus far, you know who you are!!!!! You're love and support hasn't gone unnoticed and I can't wait to make history with you.
I don't think I've been putting everything in God's hands the way I should. I've learned my lesson. #1 not to focus on anything else or anyone else but myself and being the best ME THAT I CAN BE, #2 not waiting around and letting you sabotage my dreams :)
In the words of The Daily Love, "Right now is a chance to start again. New day, new opportunity, new focus, new reason to push thru!" #TDL

YOU ARE WHAT YOU BELIEVE
I'm volunteering at this illiteracy program and I met the sweetest lady in the world today. She's 62 and doesn't know how to read. Her husband of 16 years is mentally disabled and he's also in the program. By the looks of this woman, you would never ever know that she couldn't read. She's a jazzy miss thang and pretty alert if you ask me, she's not "slow" by a long shot. Anyhow as I attempted to tutor this young lady, I realized her illiteracy was far more deeper than not comprehending or understanding something. You see, she's been living with these limitations that everyone has put on her. She stressed to me that her mother has been calling her slow and people has been ridiculing her every since she was a little girl. The part that cut me so deeply is.....SHE STILL BELIEVES THESE THINGS TO BE TRUE!!!! She's been living with these same excuses all of her life. I.E "My mama said I'll never get it", "I was learning it when i was little and after my tutor died, I stopped learning", "My aunt still calls me slow", "I couldn't make it to the program because of the weather".
Your mind is only gonna believe what you feed it, rather right or wrong good or bad; it doesn't know the difference. After listening to all of her excuses I realized that this is a waste of my time and I have no clue where to start with this woman because I can't just touch the surface, the basics.Its far greater than her illiteracy. It's her belief. And as cliche as this thing sounds, it truly is about what you believe to be true about yourself. She has to stop believing these lies.
All her life she has been living by what the next person thinks. She put both of her children in a home because "they" said it was best. She still looks for her mother's approval and until this very day her mother tells her that "she cannot do it, she's slow"
If anyone is reading this message please hear me out. STOP LOOKING FOR OTHER PEOPLE VALIDATIONS AND FOLLOW YOUR HEART!!!! STOP WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO TELL YOU TO MAKE THAT MOVE AND PICK UP THE PIECES TO YOUR LIFE AND DO YOU!!!
Can you imagine being 62 years old and living with the same excuses that you did when you were 32?
At the end of the day all of these people telling this lady what she cannot do, who's the one that can't read? She's responsible regardless. Oh and her husband is mentally challenged but sharp as a whistle. He knows exactly what's going on in the world. I have such great respect for him because everything truly is a state of mind and he's very stable and alert. So when you see someone who's mentally challenged, don't be so quick to judge, they're smarter than you think.
