Are annual checkups actually preventing illnesses? If so, why are most people still finding themselves sick after religiously keeping up with years of annual checkups? But no one talks about the number of false-positive diagnoses and lifelong prescription drug use that come from all of these so-called preventative care visits. Do we care about intentional actions that produce positive results, or are we more concerned about doing what we've been told is productive? The with the results?

I'm not interested in what you believe. Beliefs come and go. Tell me what you know. Do you KNOW who you are? Do you KNOW your power? Do you KNOW your mind is magic? Do you KNOW you can rise above everything in the physical realm? Well, do you?

What you gone do when you experience loss, when life keeps dealing what appears to be blow after blow, when one of the greats exit this physical experience and leaves you feeling hopeless and uninspired? If your health and wellness work doesn't prepare you to handle any and every situation that you could ever encounter on earth, you might wanna check that asap. If you didn't already know, Nipsey Hussle got a promotion. That's the end goal my friend. Rest in Peace? Nah, ball out brotha. Salute.

I'm encouraging you to stay focused. Now more than ever. One of the best ways to do that is by challenging your mind and body. If you knew that you could reset your health, clear your mind, and move closer to your goals just by disciplining yourself for 21 days, would you do it?

Bringing your greatest aspirations to life are contingent upon your ability to master your bounce back game. Despite the trials, the adversities, and the blows, can you keep coming back again and again and again?

Here we go again with the notion that real plant-based food from Mother Earth is causing people to get sick. How are people able to eat24/7 and appear to be just fine but those who eat fruits and vegetables are dying of nutritional deficiencies? Let's cut the bull and get to the bottom of this.

When you are in the inital stages of moving towards your health and life goals, I need you to remember two key words - Focus Forward. Do whatever you have to do in order to saturate yourself with the words, feelings, and frequency of that which you are desiring to become.

There's nothing wrong with desiring to help others or even "saving the world" but that's not your job and should not be your focus. Your first and only job is to save yourself, first. Assess yourself, heal yourself, strengthen yourself. This opens the door to a shift in consciousness and a shift in individual consciousness will by default affect mass consciousness. You are no good to anyone until you are first good to yourself.

“Desire is craving enough to sacrifice for.” – Myles Munroe The health you want is unachievable without first having the desire. After the desire, you must bring the body under subjection in order to instruct it to move, operate, and respond to your will and not outside stimuli. Know thyself, master thyself.

If intention and results matter, what exactly are we gaining from the so-called #BlackGirlMagic movement? The last I checked, magic makes a difference. It has the ability to transform people, places, and things. Not emotional feel-good or temporary excitement about being a part of something. Real transmutation. Where's the magic that makes black women better? Improves our health? Activates our power? Enables us to isolate ourselves from physical and mental degradation? Where is the real fn magic? ...I'll wait.

Here's a little secret: The life and health you desire are going to cost you something. If this year is to be any different than any other year, what are you willing to give up for it? Is your health or wellness worth the discomfort, frustration, and pain that you will have to temporarily endure while pursuing it?

Whether it comes to navigating the holidays, the winter, your health or the bs news headlines, the truth is always present it's just up to you to recognize it. The takeaway from this episode is that the Flu Season is just like most things you waste time obsessing and worrying about, nonexistent until your belief in it gave it power.

Your magic lies in your imagination and your ability to BEcome what it is that you desire. The plot twist is this: what you see and experience in the world depends not on what is there but the assumptions you make when you encounter it. Healing will always come back to you, every single time.

You can drown yourself in all the Awareness you want but until you DO something to prevent cancer, all the pink in the world ain't gon' save you. This is your friendly reminder that Breast Cancer Awareness Month is nothing but a billion dollar hustle that plays on your emotions while doing nothing to actually help you or those you love.

Everyone says they want it, the truth that is. But do you really? Are you really ready to shatter the world as you know it? I think you're lying. I think you want the benefits of creating a new world for yourself but not the consequences of letting go of your old one. Exiting the Matrix seems exciting until the truth ushers you into places your beliefs are unable to support.

Cancer is nothing to be feared. Why? Because when we understand what it really is and what actually causes it, we then come to understand what it takes to eliminate it or better yet never experience it in the first place. --- Episode Notes [00:48] Reflection on 100 episodes [11:12] What you must understand about cancer

If consciousness is your "state of awareness", what do you think happens to your health when your state of awareness of the world is that of lack and fear? You can not stay in energetic alignment with the Universe and experience all of her love and abundance when you're stuck replaying the memories of scarcity and lack. Remember every thought matters and all physical conditions manifest from the nonphysical.

While I do believe that how you think is more important than how you eat, from my experience, my mind has always been it's clearest and most focused during the times that I've eaten the best. It's not rocket science that what you put into your body matters and anyone who eats food (every-body) can attest to the fact that they feel certain ways after eating certain foods. Cleaning up your body has a majestic way of cleaning up your thoughts, and with clear and intentional thoughts you put yourself in the driver's seat of your behavior and ultimately your life.

Whether you're working to restore your health or simply in pursuit of a better life, the journey is undoubtedly not going to look exactly the way you may expect. Although we love to highlight the bountifulness of fruitful living, there are going to be times when despite planting seeds in what you believe is good soil, despite watering it consistently and making sure it has adequate sunlight, the harvest still doesn't come. What does one do when you put time, energy, and genuine effort into something you greatly desire, and you have nothing to "show" for it?

We've been lied to. We were taught that in order to love our people and community we must stay connected by way of our pain points. The more traumatic the better. Trauma is deeply embedded in our DNA and no matter how much you try to move beyond it, it's always the people who claim to love you who are there to remind you that you must not forget. I wonder what would happen if we decided to forget traumatic memories and create new visions of a powerful and fearless future.
