✨ Hello November!! Month 11 of 12...

Here's Your November Reminder: Sis, it’s okay to say no.

No to the invitations, expectations, and obligations that drain your peace, your time, or your money. This month, start saying yes to what fills you up — rest, purpose, alignment, and growth.

November is your permission slip to protect your energy, your boundaries, and your goals. Because every “no” to what drains you is a powerful “yes” to the life you’re building.

It’s time to rest, reset, and remember - you don’t have to do it all.💜

I’ve been struggling with content lately. I could not seem to get clear on my messaging. I prayed and asked God for clarity, I attended a conference, I networked and continued to work but something just felt off.

In the midst of everything going on, I heard God say to focus on what truly matters: family, experiences, health, relationships - and things began to shift.

As I reflect on this year, my heart is full of gratitude. For the highs and the lows. The good and the bad. Even when things haven’t worked out exactly how I wanted them to. I’m thankful.

I was blessed to spend the past few days in Mexico, living and enjoying the good life. And it has been magical.

God met me here. In my solitude and with my sisters. Through moments of dancing and moments of rest. This was just what I needed.

I haven’t “made it” I still have work to do. But the clarity I have been seeking has been here all along. I just needed to slow down to receive it.

So here’s a reminder for the woman who’s in the thick of it- remember that God sees you, and He loves you.

Philippians 4:6 – Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.

You are worthy of financial peace, success, and joy.

Let’s keep rising together—building wealth, focusing on things that matter most, and living a life we love. 💕

How will the government shutdown affect your finances?

There's a lot of information online about this, and it can be super confusing and overwhelming.

First, if you receive essential services (Medicaid, Snap, etc) those should continue with no interruption.

Also, If you are a government worker and you’ve been furlowed, or you’re experienng a layoff - I’m sorry. I hope the 3 tips below will help you to get started:

1. Go through your bank and credit card statements and comb through your expense. Reduce or cancel anything nonessential if possible.
2. Build a budget! Yes, you NEED a budget!!!! Your budget is permission to spend; use it to make sure your bills are paid and to manage your day-to-day financial decisions.
3. Make a plan. Take a few minutes each week to update and track your numbers. Decide if you will need to contact creditors, or what adjustments you’ll need to make.

Hopefully the shut down won’t last long, but it’s better to be prepared.
