  • 59: I Can’t Change You, I Can Barely Change My Gym Schedule
    Dec 3 2025

    What if the most liberating thing you do this week is unlearn a habit that’s been running your life on autopilot? We dive into the messy, honest work of letting go: letting go of fixer energy, of forcing timelines, of giving weight to words that don’t line up with actions. I share how I’m learning to accept my place in people’s lives without taking it personally, and why meeting people where they’ve met themselves can save you from disappointment and emotional whiplash.

    From there, we get practical about boundaries that don’t require drama. We talk about walking away without matching rudeness, believing consistent behavior over pretty promises, and recognizing that inaction is still a choice that tells you everything. I open up about the hard pill of being the villain in someone else’s story, how therapy helps me spot projection and take accountability, and why “strong” isn’t about absorbing more—it’s about refusing to abandon yourself. If self-respect is a muscle, keeping small promises—to rest, to move, to stop chasing closure—builds it.

    We also unpack the lure of the endless “why.” Curiosity can become a trap that drags you back into chaos for answers that don’t change the facts. My intuition usually knows first, and when I honor it, I skip a lot of pain. If you’re ready to trust your gut, choose your peace, and invest in relationships where words and actions match, this conversation will feel like a deep breath.

    Subscribe, share with a friend who needs stronger boundaries, and leave a five-star review to help others find the show. Then tell me: what are you unlearning right now?

  • 58: My Nervous System Needs PTO
    Nov 26 2025

    What if softness wasn’t an escape, but a strategy for days that won’t slow down? Tajuana opens up about rebuilding calm inside a loud life—motherhood with two energetic boys, a body moving through hormonal phases, and a schedule that never quite empties. Instead of chasing an idealized version of ease, she walks through a practical soft-life toolkit: habit stacking that keeps essentials on autopilot, cycle-aware planning that honors shifting energy, and tiny joy rituals that reset the nervous system in minutes.

    We unpack how stress tricks us into dropping the routines that work, and how to make them frictionless again by anchoring new behaviors to ones you already do. Think: checking your cycle phase before email, journaling after skincare, and slipping in a short meditation without re-negotiating with yourself. Tajuana also shares what she’s learning about menstrual phases—why luteal days call for warmth, simpler tasks, and more rest—and how period tracking apps can guide food, movement, and focus choices without becoming rigid rules.

    This conversation gets specific about micro-moments that matter: a quiet lap through a bookstore, fresh flowers on the counter, a vegetable-heavy salad that sparks genuine delight, and the grounding power of breath and mantras when the room turns rowdy. The theme isn’t perfection; it’s pattern recognition and kindness—choosing inputs that soothe instead of spike. If you’ve felt “always on,” this is a gentle blueprint for building calm into the cracks of a busy day, protecting your energy with boundaries, and finding pockets of peace that actually fit your season.

    If this resonates, tap follow, share it with a friend who needs softer edges this week, and leave a quick review to help more listeners find the show.

  • 57: From Braids To Silk Press: A Black Woman’s Hair Journey
    Nov 19 2025

    Hair carries memory, culture, and the everyday work of showing up. I open up about life with thick, curly hair—from toddler photos where my curls were bigger than me to a present-day silk press that finally feels like balance. You’ll hear the real differences between a “perm” for straight hair versus Black hair, why heat is both a tool and a threat, and how I weigh the trade-offs that come with shine, swing, and scalp health. This is a practical guide and a personal story in one, built from years of braids, weaves, trims, and do-overs.

    We get into the fine print of protective styles: the hours they demand, the take-downs that test your patience, and the small techniques that keep them fresh—sealing ends, gentle wash routines, and scalp access. I share what changed when I moved away from chemicals, wrestled with shrinkage and dryness, and learned a silk press could give me ease without losing myself. Expect concrete details on tools and routines, from brush-dryer combos that won’t snap off in coils to heat protectants and wrapping at night with flexi rods or pin curls to hold shape.

    There’s mindset work here too. Two sisters, same parents, different textures—proof that comparison robs joy. I talk about releasing length envy, prioritizing healthy ends and low manipulation, and embracing grays when I want to and dye when I don’t. Biotin, prenatal vitamins, rosemary mint oil, and weekly wash habits show up as supporting players, not miracle cures. If you’ve ever juggled identity, practicality, and beauty through your hair, you’ll feel seen and leave with strategies to try next wash day.

    Enjoy the conversation? Follow the show, share this episode with a friend who gets the Black hair journey, and leave a quick review to help more listeners find us. Your stories and tips make this community stronger—what routine is working for you right now?
