Do you find yourself being taken advantage of over and over again? Do you feel like you’re constantly settling and never getting what you truly want? 

Friend, it may be because your boundaries suck when it comes to your relationships! 

Relationships and other aspects of life would be so different if we learned to create boundaries. 

We wouldn’t settle for potential. We wouldn’t put up with the way others speak to us. We wouldn't accept less than what we deserve. 

Yet, so many of us suffer in our relationships because we don’t know how to set boundaries! 

Here’s a breakdown of what Eddie and I discussed… 

• Setting boundaries to protect your family's health (05:13)
• The one boundary that we exercise in our marriage (19:25)
• It is your responsibility to teach people how to treat you (25:00)
• There's a consequence to everything in life (30:45)
• People will show you who they are; you have to listen (32:29)
• How to effectively...

Shit happens and unfortunately it’s stuff we have no control over. 

Listen, nobody wakes up inviting problems into their lives with open arms. But the reality of life is that we’re not always in control of ALL of the things that happen to us on a daily basis. 

In this episode we’re talking about life’s ups and downs and how to stay focused on the things you can control versus manifesting the things you can’t. 

Here’s a breakdown of what Eddie and I discussed… 

• Why you need to have a certain level of preparedness for what can happen (21:39)
• How to prepare mentally and emotionally for problems (22:54)
• Life is about ebbs and flows, ups and downs (23:44)
• How to create a new state of mind after going through a problem (28:02)
• Practicing to be calm when faced with a problem (36:36)
• How to learn from every single problem (38:20)
• You are not always in control (41:10)
• where your focus goes, your energy flows (45:10)

...

Your mindset is EVERYTHING. 

So much of the way we live life and the approach we have in life comes down to our mindset and our attitude! 

So friend, if you have a shitty attitude, you’re going to attract more negativity into your life. And I don’t want that for you. So this week, Eddie and I are sharing how you can take back control of your mindset and how the right attitude can shape your life. 

Here’s a breakdown to what Eddie and I discussed…

We know 2020 has been tough. We’ve had our fair share of uphill battles and slaps in the face, but we...

If 2020 was nothing like you imagined then sis you’re not alone! 

With 30 days left in the year that will NEVER end, we decided we wanted to share what 2020 has taught us so far. 

Here’s a breakdown of what Eddie and I discussed…

• No matter what, humans need connection (28:56)
• We see the world very differently (32:48)

This year has by far been one of the most challenging, in more ways than one. Like everyone of you, Eddie and I had BIG, BIG plans for 2020 and they were immediately shut down once COVID hit. 

With all the adversity, we’ve gained so many lessons that we think could help you too. In fact, more often than not, we receive the biggest blessings in disguise through the challenges we face. You may...

When was the last time you had courage?

I was recently asked this question and to be honest it was so hard for me to think of something because in my opinion I’m courageous everyday! It’s just who I am as an individual. The shit I’ve gone through has forced me to PUSH through life on a daily basis so when I’m faced with adversity I do see it as being courageous. 

I’m not aware of it and I think most of the time, neither are you. We don’t think about courage in the moment because really we’re just taking action for something that we have to do. But courage comes in so many different ways. 

During this week’s PUSH, Eddie and I shared what it means to be courageous and how this newly discovered courage can lead to more confidence. 

Here’s a breakdown of what Eddie and I discussed…

• How often do your exercise courage in your life (13:38)
• How to talk yourself into more courage (17:29)
• Gaining courage by focusing...

“We sabotage the great things in our lives because deep down we don’t feel worthy of having great things”- Taressa Riazzi

We’re all victims of self sabotage, whether you believe it or not. In fact, at most times, our greatest self sabotage is when we are closest to reaching new opportunities and blessings. 

It holds us back from pushing us towards our goals and trying to level up in life. We become our own worst enemies by creating fake scenarios and adopting toxic behaviors that halt our progress. 

Here’s a breakdown of what Eddie and I discussed… 

• Are you your own worst enemy? (11:19)

• Negative thought pattern and negative beliefs are holding you back (27:20)
• How fear of success sabotages our progress...

Do you ever wish we were given a handbook on HOW to live life??? I definitely do! 

Unfortunately, life isn’t supposed to be that easy. In fact, life is more like playing a game and it’s our job to figure out what “game” we’re trying to play in whatever season we’re in. 

Here’s a breakdown of what Eddie and I discussed… 

• You gotta use it or lose it (09:10)

When you get old it’s like the only thing people ask you is if you have any regrets. You start to think about everything you’ve accomplished and the experiences...

It’s ELECTION DAY! And we decided enough is enough...

Why is it that as people we’re so filtered all the damn time! 

We’re so worried that we’re gonna piss someone off because of our own opinions. We avoid certain topics because it’s gotten to a point where relationships fall apart, family members don’t speak, and division becomes more and more of a “normalcy”. 

So today Eddie and I decided, to F* the haters and just say the sh*t you aren’t supposed to say!

WHAT THE HELL is this episode about?

I know it sounds sexual but trust me it’s 100% NOT! 

If you’ve been following me and social media then you know that we recently started doing MAJOR  renovations on our house that we’ve saved and prayed for 15 years! What a blessing right!

You can read more about my post HERE!

Through this home renovation, I was inspired for the title of this week’s episode and it made me realize that sometimes in order to grow you have to strip down everything you know to the foundation and be FULLY EXPOSED.

Friend, let me tell you… 

I have decision fatigue!!! 

And it is so real!! I talk ALL about why in the most recent episodes of the Podcast! 

Through all these decisions I’ve had to make, I’ve learned a few things! 1)Each decision produces an outcome or consequence that requires us to make the best of it and 2) The decisions are neither good nor bad; it's what you do with them that makes the difference.

Here’s a breakdown of what Eddie and I discussed… 

• Decision fatigue is a real thing (03:25)
• Every decision you make has some type of consequence (07:04)
