Is there anything you’ve been wanting to do that you keep putting off?

Maybe you’ve thought about doing it but the self doubt takes over and you put your dreams on the back burner once again?

Maybe you’ve been waiting for the “perfect” time to go for your dreams?

In today’s episode I want to share a pivotal moment with you that completely changed my life (and the life of millions of women around the world)

This week my youngest child is about to turn five and everything you see in my world right now, this business, the podcast, the movement that is The Queen of Confidence - all of that was born when my son Navah was born.

In a time where I was nursing a newborn and struggling to brush my teeth, I was building my Fempire…

This episode is here to tell you that YOU and me and every single woman in the world can do hard things 👏🏽and if you want something there is NOTHING standing in your way and I’m going to tell you why.

Throughout the ep, I dive into:

How this birth completely transformed me and my business
Going all in when I couldn’t even pay my electricity
The things I had to let go of to step into this new version of myself

… and so much more

Why Vulnerability Feels Hard Sep 12, 2022

Show notes

One of the toughest things in the world – especially for women who have had to learn to be strong – is being vulnerable.

When you’ve spent your life building up walls just to protect yourself, we fight with every nerve not to take those defenses down!

But being vulnerable can also be a gift. It’s real. It’s in the moment. It’s unapologetically you. It creates connection – not only within ourselves, but with those who love us and who want to love every inch of our bare souls.

So today I’m getting vulnerable about vulnerability. What holds us back from being fully open? What do we risk when we withhold our true selves? And what rewards are waiting for us when we do learn how to embrace our vulnerability?

“The Best and Worst Week of My Life” Sep 05, 2022

Show notes

THIS episode right here is the reason you shouldn’t compare yourself to others.

So much of what I do at The Queen of Confidence centers around sharing the stories of confidence, the epic wins and helping other women feel empowered to do the same.

Who doesn’t want to shout it from the rooftops when things are going right for us?!

But I also believe it’s important to talk about it when things aren’t going well.

So in this episode, I’m sharing a big win – being nominated for seven prestigious business awards – that happened while dealing with a tremendous low: my mother being hospitalized for a serious mental health episode.

Today I’m talking about why it’s never worthwhile to compare yourself to another person’s success, because that duality is present for everybody, regardless of the perfect snapshots that end up on social media.

I’m also sharing the tools and lessons I learned as someone who’s used to dealing with these crazy highs and crazy lows – in the hopes that they’ll inspire you no matter which place you're in: on top of the world, or struggling to pull yourself back up.

Single Ladies Series - Are You Better Off Alone? Aug 29, 2022

Show notes

When it comes to relationships, we all think we know what we want. Somebody kind, thoughtful, funny, good-looking, or (insert your adjective of choice here!).

But it’s rarely that simple. We spend a lot of time thinking about our ideal partner – but usually not enough time thinking about ourselves.

So when I talk to women who are struggling with dating, I always start in the same place: What about YOU?

What makes you feel loved? What do you want from a partner? Do you know what you need? Do you feel worthy of real, genuine love?

And if you don’t, how can you help yourself get there?

Today’s episode is all about cultivating the self-worth, self-love, and self-sufficiency we need as women to attract what we deserve – in relationships and in life.

What 5 Days Off the Grid Taught Me Aug 22, 2022

Show notes

Sometimes, in order to reconnect, we have to disconnect.

For someone like me, who loves being on and available and ready to go 24/7, I struggled with the idea of taking some time to recharge all the way up to getting on the plane. Five days at a spa?! Without my husband or kids?! (Or phone?!) It seemed crazy.

But it was necessary.

I read books. I journaled. I ate good food, slept well, and even tried equine therapy. I also let go – of thinking it’s all on me, my childhood pain, overworking.

And in the process, I learned something invaluable about not just myself, but about how I’m living my life, how I interact with my husband and kids, and how I’m setting myself up for my future:

Giving yourself your own attention is the best gift you can give yourself.

Today I’m talking about the restorative power of taking time for yourself – even (especially!) when it’s the last thing on your list. You deserve the same care you give to others – it’s time to start prioritizing YOU.

Playing Big in Your Biz with Jazze Jervis Aug 17, 2022

Show notes

Ladies, if you’ve ever been curious about being in aligmement when starting your own coaching business, today’s episode is for YOU!
Today I talk to Jazze Jervis, who mentors women to six and seven figure success through strategy, mindset, energetics.

The core of her work is mentoring the whole woman, with an emphasis on self exploration and connection back to our truth, our values, our desires, and what really drives us in life.

Jazze shares how she got her start as a mentor, how coaching has evolved over the course of her career (and how she’s evolved with it), the pitfalls of living in an on demand, instant gratification world, how to get a coaching business going, and why she’s redefined the word “failure.”
Jazze is a corporate lawyer turned 7-figure business coach and network marketing mentor, top podcast host, ironwoman athlete, ex-competitive basketballer and THE hype girl for female entrepreneurs leaving their stories at the door and claiming their badass dream life.

It’s her mission to support high-achieving female entrepreneurs on their mission to lead with impact, value and strategy while creating generational wealth for their families. She believes we are here to play BIG, take up SPACE and not be confined by the boxes society can put us in.

She's here to empower the hell out of more women so they can lead lives they not only desire but wholeheartedly deserve.

Buying My First Home Aug 08, 2022

Show notes

As a little girl growing up in a rough neighborhood, who was in and out of foster care, who depended on food stamps, I never expected that one day I’d be able to buy a house.

I was letting my past hold me back. “I’m too poor,” even though I wasn’t anymore. “I’m too Puerto Rican. I’m too whatever.” These beliefs were still keeping me down, years and years and years later.

But I wanted to give that little foster kid inside me a home of her own. I wanted my kids to grow up in their own home.

So I made myself realize something: I’m powerful as f*ck. I'm a creator. And if I don't like my results, I can change what I'm creating.

Today I’m sharing how that mindset helped me change my life and buy my first home – and how you can do it too. My sisters, whatever goal you have – to buy a home, to go on a three-month European vacation, to switch careers, to be happier – it is attainable. It starts with you.

How to Deal with HUGE Changes and Transitions Aug 01, 2022

Show notes

Ever heard the saying that change is the only constant in life?

It’s true. Our lives are never the same day to day. Some days those changes are amazing – new job! New partner! New house! New baby!

But other days, those same changes can feel scary: New responsibilities. New bills. New commitments. New vulnerabilities.

So what can we do to stay strong and centered in the face of change?

How can we remember, when we’re anxious to pursue our goals, that the growth waiting for us on the other side will make it all worthwhile?

Today I want to share how I’ve dealt with some major transitions in my life and my business, and share some ways to help you handle any change that comes your way.

🎉WE HAVE FUNDING!

The #1 Way to Change Your Life (IGTV) Jul 25, 2022

Show notes

The process of becoming is all about choices.

When women say, “Damn, Erika, how did you get that career/house/husband?!” Here's what I say, “I had to choose this for myself”.

And they were hard choices. I have had my share of trauma in my life. Abuse, loss, grief. It would have been so much easier to numb out every night on social media, or stay in a job I hated. To stay miserable in general.

Here's the truth, we all have trauma and we all have choices to make. So today I want to share with you how I decided to start being present in my choices, how those choices got me to where I am today, and how you can do the same.

P.S. Queen The Sistahood is open for enrolments!
