I am a Black Person with Light Skin. . I am an anomaly. . I would also say I am an enigma to many people as they have a challenging time pinpointing exactly what I am other than “not White”. . Well..because, you know… . in a society that is driven by racist dynamics… . “White” is the standard from which all other races are considered a divergence from. . This standardization is only one of the very insidiously oppressive dynamics of racism in today’s world. . Next Tuesday at 6pm CST I will be breaking down a few core concepts pretty deeply. . The simplified break down is as follows: . Racism. . Racist People - People who fortify the racist construct and perform in a consistent and overtly racist manner. . Racist Behavior - Behavior that fortifies racism. This can be from a Racist Programming. . The depth we will go will include a process that leads to a elevated allyship: 1. Awareness 2. Consideration 3. Invitation 4. Observation (Awareness Part 2) 5. Collaboration . If you haven’t registered yet, hit the bio and I’ll see you Tuesday. . -Tah #racism #antiracism #lifecoach #lifecoaching #mentor #thoughtleaders #entrepreneur #entrepreneurlife

When you are good at observing and detecting your own body signals you are far more effective at detecting where your team or client is and how to guide or connect with them. . If you desire top quality you must be able to transmit and receive information optimally. . All signals that come in through the body have to move through the filters and defense mechanisms of the body. . If your body’s filters are cloudy, dysfunctional or hypervigilant, the signals can be misinterpreted, overlooked or completely blocked out. . When your own signals are obstructed and you are presented with obstacles in your client, you are likely less likely to optimally navigate their subtle body cues. . It is in your best interest as a leader to talk the talk AND walk the walk now more than ever. . Stress is at the base of all human existence in states of both function and dysfunction. . How you interpret, participate in, hold on to, release, internalize, externalize, mobilize and aggrandize or marginalize stress, shifts how you are affected by it. . #lifecoach #dismantling #landmines #canyoucommunicate #nervoussystemregulation #entrepreneur #entreprenuermindset

As the author of our experiences, it is determined by the quality of the language you allow your body to express. . How you speak to it right now creates how it performs, how it loves and how it experiences pleasure. . You must first clear out the energetic and chemical noise to get a clear signal from our gut to your mind. . Mind body is often so disconnected that the gut is screaming to be heard. . What is your body trying to tell you? . #mindbody #befree #youarenotalone #countryliving #sanmarcos #texas #inspiration

There is a cycle of reactivity that occurs within the human organism to protect itself. . This is called a trauma cycle. . It begins with heightened awareness to detect a threat. . If a threat is perceived an actual activation of the fight or flight mechanisms kicks in. . The body will react in the way it instinctually believes is most likely for survival. . If fighting or flight (fleeing the scene) is perceived as futile, the body can go into what is called a freeze state where the organism prepares itself for death. . When freeze occurs there is a release of substances into the body that basically numbs it to prepare for death. . Many people are stuck in one of the fore mentioned and the longer you stay there their worse it is for your health. . It’s imperative you take time and space to down regulate your nervous system, not only for mental resilience but for your physical resilience as well. . Our clients that are finding the most success in their offerings do so because they prioritize their tools. . What’s your go to tool right now? . #trauma #entrepreneur #entrepreneurlife #befree #pivotonpurpose #businessowner

“The American system of catching child abuse relies on kids venturing outside their homes. Year after year, most referrals to child protective services come from professionals — police officers, lawyers, doctors, anyone who comes into contact with a child as part of their job. But no group reports more than educators, who were responsible for 21 percent of the 4.3 million referrals made in 2018, according to federal data.” . And now the calls have gone cold while the emergencies for severe injuries have increased. . Why? . An adult had to seek help Bc the injuries were so severe they were forced to go to a hospital. . The stress of unemployment and financial insecurity strains relationships between children and those who care for them. . The closures of schools means that teachers and adults out of the home are not seeing children and the injuries they are receiving. . It is at home home, with family, that most cases of physical and sexual abuse happen. . We are not saving lives by staying in... . We are trading them. . The idea that someone’s perspective makes them selfish is based off your own biases, no matter what way you slice it. . Be kind to each other. . We haven’t even seen the tip of the iceburg of what will follow in the wake of this crisis. . The impacts and ramifications are beyond the lives lost by the virus itself and will rattle our lives genetically and epigenetically for years and generations to come. . We love you. #crisis #bekind #befree #entrepreneur #worldchangers

Have you ever noticed emotions and behaviors are a huge inconvenience? . And how those inconvenient emotions drive inconvenient behaviors? . You might also be asking, “Inconvenient to who?” . Humans function to serve a myriad of systems and constructs like companies, religions and family structures that thrive off of humans who are governed by their rules and regulations. . These constructs are inconvenienced by abhorrent emotional outbursts and behaviors that interrupt their conveniences of control, productivity and function. . If these constructs are inconvenienced, they in turn make it really inconvenient for you that participate in and/or serve them. . Right now, more than ever people are ALL up their feelings. . What if you paused to be with them instead of being bothered by them? . #emotionstakingmeover #entrepreneur #inspiration #motivation #befree #entrepreneurlife

You have an internal guidance system that is more effective and efficient than any other language on the planet. . It ties into every part of your individual being. . You are born as children with intuitive and instinctive qualities that that you can be aware of or completely oblivious to. . Your emotions are embedded into your body. . Emotions ARE your internal guidance system. . They guide your behavior through complex systems of energetic, electrical and chemical impulses. . They connect your body to your mind and your mind to the imagination of existence itself. . Your emotions help keep you on track with your determined purposes and passions. . Becoming aware of what your emotions are signaling is the key to freedom. . #quarantine #quaranTAN #isoLAKE #laketravis #atx #connection #friendship #quaranTEAM #befree #inspiration #motivation

There is so much controversy right now. . Life long friends severing ties Bc they don’t agree on how the other is handling it. . Shame will kill more people than this virus will. . Shame will cause more to hide, not obey. . A solid leader can identify the shame device and how they may be using it on their teams and the people they love. . An expansive innovator will ask questions and consider where their emotional reactions are coming from so that they can make the most effective decisions. . I choose to open my arms to opposition, I will receive your words, i will receive your hugs, I receive YOU. . I love ALL of you. . #befree #inspiration #motivation

Shame drives people to hide, lie and be inauthentic. . It drives suicide, addiction, poor self-care and many other dysfunctional behavior patterns. . Shame is a virus of another kind behind just about every health crash, relationship crash and business crash we have managed in our clients. . Shame is a destructive device, even if it is effective in facilitating the outcome you want...it will also cause harm. . Choose to elevate your communication with your team. . If you are using shame language in how you communicate it will hurt them and stop your business in its tracks. . #entrepreneur #entrepreneurlife #ceomindset #covidcrisis #pivotyourbusiness #businessowner #smallbusiness

Imagined is often confused with “not real”. . Imagined constructs are VERY real. . Countries are imagined. . Boarders are imagined. . Corporations are imagined. . They are still very real. . Are you aware of the constructs you are participating in consciously AND subconsciously and how they are showing up in your business? . The innovators that get it will 10x their business and do it with elevated relationships and optimal health. . #entrepreneur #healthiswealth #mindbody #covidcrisis #businessowner #womeninbusiness #ceomindset

Shame is a device utilized by humanity that has outlived its usefulness. . I don’t see it as a “good” or “bad” thing. . I see it as a device that serves a purpose of powerful control over human feelings, emotions and behavior. . A control that is set into place and then runs on autopilot. . Once shame is installed in a human organism it gets into the wiring and reproduces itself. . Similar to the way a virus works. . Shame has a purpose that I believe is not viable for the continuance of humanity into new forms of evolution and the rate it is being used is toxic. . We are here to elevate the way you communicate to your teams and the relationships that matter to you. . Until you are attune to how YOU use it against others you will never have space for the truth of their authentic expressions. . #befree #entrepreneur #inspiration #motivation #ceolife #ceomindset #onlinemarketing

It is extremely difficult to be productive in states of distress, especially with all if the shifts and changes you are making in business. . Distress leads to Dis-ease which leads to Dysfunction. . This shows up as a dysfunction in: . Body structure and function. Social interaction. Mental activity. Habits. Self-Care. Nutrition. . Compounded untoward stress can overburden the nervous system, turn off the immune system and overwhelm the entire body. . Sustained overwhelm will wear out your body’s resources to the point where it’s structure will become threatened, its recovery becomes slowed down, minimally functional or not functional at all. . This inability to recover leads to further dysfunction. . Dysfunction leads to an eventual Physical Degradation or breakdown of your body. . What are you doing relax? To take a load off and connect to what is important to you? . Waiting any longer will cost you. . #stress #destress #distress #befree #getoutintothesun #entreprenuer #entrepreneurmindset
