Episode 10: Dr. Lara Fielding: Clinical Psychologist Apr 08, 2020

"Mama said there'd be days like this, there'd be days like this my mama said"- The Shirelles said it all except my mama did not tell me I would be faced with experiencing a quarantine nor a pandemic. If there was nothing else to make us adults faster, the current state of our world surely has.

I can bet my COVID-19 stimulus check that no one enjoys the feeling of not being in control. Although you may not currently have the freedom and control of when you can leave your house, there is something that you still have an ability to control, and that is your mind.

Today's guest Dr. Lara Fielding, a clinical psychologist that specializes in Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, is dropping tips to help us get centered and understand the power of mindfulness. Join us as she lets us step into her soles, engage in a moment of meditation, and helps us tap into and find out what it really means to be an emotional grown-up.

We explore her book, Mastering Adulthood, which I discovered on my many Barnes & Noble takeovers and also talk about finding our purpose, "North Star" as she calls it.

I believe that this episode is needed during a time such as this! Let's dig deep into what it really means to be an adult and cope with the emotional effects of life so we can grow up together.

Be sure to follow her on IG: @mindful_mastery

Book: Mastering Adulthood found on Amazon, Audible, Barnes & Noble

Listen in as I handle the first line of business. If you are a Solemate and have been rocking with me from the very beginning, hit play!

Episode 08: Confidence Is Key with Dolvett Quince Nov 14, 2019

" Confidence: is a feeling of self-assurance arising from one's appreciation of one's own abilities or qualities."

Who would you become if you had the confidence to risk what you deem as comfortable, like your 9 to 5 or 6 figure salary, to live the life you've always dreamed of? What if I told you confidence was the key to unlock your greatest potential? Everything you think, say and do affect your confidence. So if you are constantly telling yourself that you don't have the ability to reach that dream or goal, then you will surely affect your confidence and decrease your ability to succeed. I believe that the first stage in developing confidence is monitoring your self-talk.

In today's episode, we have the privilege to step into the soles of my friend Dolvett Quince. If you don't recognize the name, head on over to social media and search @dolvett, you are sure to recognize that smile that brings light to the rooms he is in. Or, you may simply recognize him from his 7 seasons as a trainer on NBC's TV show, "The Biggest Loser." Dolvett is a New York Times Bestselling Author, Celebrity Fitness Trainer, and Personal Development Expert with 20+ years of experience empowering people to turn potential into strength.

Dolvett was the perfect guest to discuss confidence and it as the key to unlocking the doors to some of the most hidden strengths within that once unlocked will bring success to various areas of your life. Dolvett's story is one that is sure to inspire you! As much confidence, joy, and success that Dolvett has now, it was not always his story. From foster care to the biggest loser his journey is one that we can all relate in some way especially knowing that when life happens to us we can either decide to give up or tap into that internal resource called confidence that will give us a determination to keep going no matter what it takes. This is a man that has gone through the fire and come out an even more rare and precious stone.

Listen in as Dolvett shares his greatest insecurity. Be sure to note that even with all his confidence he is constantly evolving enhancing his passion & grit, all while overcoming his insecurity. Find out if Dolvett wears socks with his dress shoes or has he received the fashion memo? Overall, he is dropping serious nuggets and you're not going to want to miss this.

Episode 07: Passion & Grit Nov 08, 2019

In Today's episode, Jasmine Matsoyan (@jasminematsoyan) and I are discussing Passion & Grit. Jasmine is a paralegal at Hallmark, business owner of @elitebakerycafe in Sacramento, and content manager. Based on my experience and research, I believe it is the true key to success in any area of your life and you can't have one without the other. Cue the Love & Marriage theme song with Al Bundy.

If we can be real with ourselves, we all have been on the search for the "secret" to success. Reading books to watching documentaries/movies like The Secret but yet we still feel as if the key to unlock the code has still not been found.

For the next 54 minutes let's lock in on this idea of passion & grit. Are you passionate or gritty? Are you both? Is this a character trait your born with or can you develop it? As a reference, we do discuss the work of Angela Lee Duckworth who I hope to get on the podcast!

"Over time, grit is what separates fruitful lives from aimlessness" - John Ortberg

What is grit?
Shaniece's ah-ha moment

After thousands of miles traveled each year, I think it's safe to say I am pretty much an expert in this department and I have this travel thing in the bag. Growing up my dad would call me a "bag lady" because I was always on the move somewhere, welp I think it's safe to say it had a purpose.

Make sure you listen in as I drop a few nuggets on how I often bypass the line at TSA even when I arrive 30-45 minutes before my flight.

Episode 05: How To Say "No" Oct 10, 2019

Do you feel bad when you say "No"? Many of us do especially when it comes down to saying no to the very person that writes your check. In today's episode, we are doing things a little bit different. I have decided to incorporate a segment called Q&A. I am sure you have heard of this before, pretty much you submit your questions and ya girl gets you an answer.

Today I am answering questions from one of our listeners. She has a problem with saying no but is also seeking answers on how to balance new responsibilities. Find out the most important thing I have done to date to not only help me say no and not feel bad about it. It's important to realize that saying no is also healthy and when it comes from a good place, nothing can come against your reasoning of why you said no.

Episode 04: Hope Is The Key..It's The MAJOR. Key Oct 02, 2019

Can you really have it all? Often times we ask what is the key to success? Not realizing that the key is oftentimes found within us as opposed to outside of us. We look for someone to make our dream happen or we try and copy the exact formula that worked for someone else. In the words of DJ Khalid, "Major Key Alert" everything we need to be rockstars is in us!

Today we are stepping into the soles of Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter, actor, voice coach MAJOR. Mr. "Why I Love You" and the HOPE Dealer himself. We discuss what life was like being classmates with Beyoncè, just kidding, but he did attend the same school as her, so that speaks for itself. However, we do talk about the key to success and your dream career and life. Believe it or not, it's actually found in you opposed to outside of you! There are so many MAJOR. keys and tools that you can start using right now, to take your life and career to the next level. MAJOR. discusses how to write the scene of your life, your story, and the required ingredients to your legacy.

Trust me, I know I say this about most of the episodes but this one you're going to want to listen to probably twice. Just listen so you can get a good laugh regarding a moment in school where his wit got him in trouble and of course for The Sole Truth Nothing But The Truth Round where he talks about his relationship to Queen Latifah.

Episode 03: I Am More Than My Title with Misty Anderson Sep 25, 2019

"What's in a name? that which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet" - William Shakespeare

If I may so myself, Shakespeare was on to something when he wrote this in Romeo & Juliet. Juliet pretty much is complaining that his name is meaningless. If the rose had any other name it would still be the same, a rose.

So, I want to table a question...What's In A Title? Whether you have a title or not, it's not that which defines you. I believe that there are so many other ingredients that define who we are as individuals. Unfortunately, we are in the day and age where social media, as well as pockets of America, place emphasis on your title and the number of followers one has. It determines how much you will be paid and sometimes how you are respected in different circles and environments.

In an effort, to cause a movement that will break the negative stigma and pressure off of being defined by a title, today's episode is geared towards just that.

We step Into The Soles Of...Misty Anderson who doubles as the force support behind Erica Cambpell (Mary Mary) and operations manager to a music label, My Block Inc. She truly is more than her title. We are discussing how to show up no matter what level you are in the organization, how you can define your role and not let it define you, and so many other inspirational nuggets that will help you get to write your own story, define who you are, and how you choose to show up in the world.

Be sure to listen all the way through for the segment, The Sole Truth & Nothing But The Truth, and find out her nickname. Here is a hint, it's a character from Nickelodeon. Find out the must-have books for your career that you must order ASAP.

Episode 02: Manifesting A 7 Figure Business with Lauren Messiah Sep 18, 2019

Can you really manifest a 7 figure business or a house in the middle of Los Angeles, CA as an entrepreneur, I mean let's not talk about the kind of Monayyy that requires? Or manifest an opportunity to meet Steve Harvey?

In this episode, I sit down with LA's most in-demand personal stylist & 7 figure online business owner Lauren Messiah. Lauren has helped women literally all around the globe from London to Kuwait level-up their lives through the art and tool of style. She goes beyond just dressing women but ends up helping them grow confidence in so many other areas of their lives.

Listen in as we discuss the importance of setting goals, how to tackle them, creating a vision board, how to redefine failure, and how to invest in yourself even when or if you're interning or living off an unemployment check. The truth is your goals and dreams can really manifest and become a reality.

Check out the segment "The Sole Truth Nothing But The Truth" as Lauren shares the top hitter on her playlist that she calls her money-making song.

What's one goal that is so big that you know will take prayer and maybe the Lord himself making his debut on earth earlier than we all expected?

If you never thought about it or thought that maybe it is impossible for it to even manifest because you have the mindset "things like that don't happen for people like me," I want you to first pull out a sheet of paper and write 50 times, I will not think that things like that don't happen for people like me, I am kidding but that's the old school punishment way. But really, throw that thought out the damn window and write down a goal and or a dream that's bigger than you really want to see come to past. I once thought that way and sometimes it creeps back in but I've learned how to fight it by reciting positive affirmations and truths of the bible to myself.

Take 5 minutes and do this exercise before you hit play on this episode!

Episode 01: The True Cost Of Purpose with Sarah Jakes Roberts Sep 14, 2019

Entrepreneur or 9 to 5'er, working in your purpose comes with a cost.

How much? Well, I thought you'd never ask.

The topic of discussion these days revolves around one word that has become the million-dollar word, PURPOSE. Everyone is on a quest to seek their purpose.

What happens when you discover your purpose and land a job to begin to fulfill that purpose? What should you charge or ask for in terms of a salary? What valuation do you place on your talent, time, and yourself? Are you willing to walk away if the finances aren't where you want them to be?

In this episode, I sit down with Speaker & Author Sarah Jakes Roberts. The Oprah to my Gayle. She has made an impact on millions of women all around the world with her movement known as Woman Evolve. She has truly become a modern businesswoman, with her online clothing store, podcast, and so many other ventures. Listen in on how she shares what goes into negotiating her rate as a speaker as well as rates when she is looking to hire contractors and employees.

This conversation is real and candid. Listen in on she shares her journey and find out during 'The Sole Truth Nothing But The Truth' about her run-in with a mouse as well as a few other golden nuggets and fun facts about Mrs. Sarah Jakes Roberts.
