Stop Jumping Ship Before You Reach The Destination; the Creative Entrepreneurial climb is long and hard, but it's worth it | Black Girl Creative Pep Talk, Trust God, Trust the Timing of Your Life Mar 29, 2021

Show notes

Dear Black Girl Creative,

I have been so discouraged by life not happening on my terms.

I've felt like a failure and like it's too late for me.

We all have goals dreams and desires as Creative Black Women.

It can be super frustrating when it seems like it's taking a long time to get to our destinations.

When it seems like our lives are taking detours we didn't plan for, we question if we should keep persevering or not.

Let's stay on the ship.

Love and Joy,

Alecia

Do You Fear What People Will Say About You? Listen to TIHS! Dealing with Naysayers. How to process, understand and deal with harsh criticism as a creative | Black Girl Creative Podcast Mar 22, 2021

Show notes

Dear Black Girl Creative,

Many question how to process, understand and deal with criticism as a creative:

Stay in the ring.

The fear of criticism or not being good enough stops a lot of Black Creatives from starting a project, persevering and sharing their art.

You have to know the difference between constructive criticism and harsh criticism.

Everyone's a critic, but that doesn't mean you should stop creating. It means that you should stay in the ring and keep creating.

Love and Joy,

Alecia
