How to Respond to Destructive Criticism

March 3, 2023
Responding to Destructive Criticism

We know for a fact that we will come across difficult people. Difficult people come with a lot of toxicity and make life miserable for all of us. This unfortunately means you’ll come across people who offer destructive criticism. To be clear, not all criticism is bad criticism. Sometimes we’re offered healthy/constructive criticism by people who consider the entire picture, and this can be helpful. I suppose that’s why people refer to it as constructive criticism.  But that’s[...]

How to Deal with Jealousy (Part 2)

February 19, 2023

For part one of this series of blog posts, please go here Onward to Part 2, excited yet? :) * Call Yourself Out When You Get Jealous One of the most important things to do when you feel jealous is to admit it to yourself. Jealousy comes from a complex mix of emotions and feelings, getting through them can be difficult because it’s about owning up to feelings of not being enough (which isn’t true, but more on that later) It’s only after we catch ourselves being jealous that[...]

6 Rules To Help Elevate Your Life

February 3, 2023
How to elevate your life

1. Choose Your Friends Wisely The life any woman lives is heavily impacted by the people she chooses to have around her. This means, to reach your potential and shine like the diamond you are, you keep friends who love and support you (the same way you do for them). You elevate each other and you don’t bring each other down.  Can you imagine how frustrating it would be to have friends that are hot and cold with you? You would go insane wondering if they’re on your side or not.[...]

5 Ways To Build Self-Confidence

January 27, 2023
how to build self confidence

Self-confidence is incredibly important, and it’s something that’s in short supply these days. Self-confidence is something we should aspire towards because it improves many (if not all) aspects of our lives. Think about it, would you prefer a partner who talks to you nervously, constantly backpedals on decisions and is always doubting themselves? No. Because that would be unattractive. We need partners who are sure of themselves, people who, even when they’re not certain are willing t[...]

5 Affirmations To Remember for 2023

December 30, 2022

“The only person better than ME is the ME I’m yet to be” Yes, Goddess. Don’t ever let anyone tell you they’re better than you. There’s no such thing. We’re all good at different things, we’re all unique and we all bring different qualities to the table. Anyone who believes they’re better than anyone/everyone is simply living in an illusion. The only person you should compete with is yourself, because no one will ever be better at being you, than you. “It doesn’t m[...]

5 Ways To Know You’re Dealing With a Classy Lady

December 9, 2022
Classy woman

1) They Value And Respect Others The thing about a classy lady is that she understands the value of others; this comes from having done work on herself. Classy ladies put their best foot forward when interacting with other people. Not because those other people “deserve” it, but because it comes naturally.  Understanding the value of a “thank you” when a job is well done is something that comes from a classy lady.  Calling the manager and harassing employees at[...]

5 Habits That Can Stop You From Becoming A Better Boss

November 20, 2022
How to Become A Better Boss

It’s not easy being a boss. Actually, it can be easy depending on your level of experience -- but being a good boss; well, that’s something else. Earning the respect of your team/employees is often confused with being a one-way deal. They (the team) have to listen to the boss, no matter what. Factually, this simply isn’t true. No boss wants a team of people-pleasers, and no boss wants a team that isn’t willing to follow simple instructions. It’s a tough balance to strike, but it ca[...]

The Power Of Self-Compassion

November 11, 2022
Self-Compassion

Sometimes people think being hard on themselves is the answer. That the more we push ourselves, the easier it becomes to achieve our goals. If you’ve been following my blog for a while now you’ll know this isn’t entirely true. There’s research to show how not being self-compassionate makes it harder for us to pick ourselves up after a failure. We become overwhelmed by emotions and we learn less from our experiences. Instead of criticizing ourselves and pushing on without pause, we sh[...]

How To Become Your Most Authentic Self

November 4, 2022
how to become self aware

To be self-aware is the biggest gift we can give to others and ourselves. To be self-aware is incredibly difficult and it requires us to explore ourselves deeply -- getting to the core. To be self-aware, we need to know ourselves on the inside and out. On the inside, it means accepting our triggers, flaws and everything we’re good at. On the outside it means looking at how we relate to those around us; are we mean, kind, patient, or condescending? Getting these answers requires work. Th[...]

5 Ways To Improve Your Creative Thinking

September 30, 2022
Quotes From Powerful Ladies

When people talk about creative thinking, they sometimes assume it starts and ends with art. This is obviously not true. Creative thinking is our ability to think outside the box and come up with innovative solutions and ideas. It’s that X factor that allows even the most tough situations to be viewed as a challenge and not another obstacle in the way.  I don’t think I can overstate the usefulness of creative thinking in this day and age. I like to believe the more we work on our[...]
