Hey hey hey and welcome to the season three finale of the B.E.I.N.G. Podcast! It's hard to believe reached the end of another incredible journey together. First and foremost, thank you so much for being with me this season. Your support means the world! As you may know, I'm taking a short break to focus on some exciting upgrades for the show. This means even more amazing content and experiences for you in the future. But before we sign off, I wanted to take a moment to revisit some of the incredible things we discussed throughout Season 3. Recap of Season 3 Highlights: The Power of Mindset: We delved deep into the importance of our mindset and how it shapes our experiences. We learned to challenge negative thinking patterns and cultivate a more positive outlook. Intentional Consumption: We explored the concept of being intentional with what we consume, both in terms of media and information we take in, and how it affects our thoughts and emotions. The Art of Grace: We talked about giving and receiving grace, for ourselves and others. Remember, we're all human, and compassion is key! Dream Chasing: This season was all about chasing our dreams, no matter how big or small. We learned the importance of setting goals and taking action to make them a reality. Letting Go: We also discussed the importance of letting go in order to receive more. Sometimes, to make space for new things, we have to release the old. Feeling Your Feels: We explored the importance of allowing ourselves to feel our emotions, even the difficult ones. Bottling things up never serves us well. The Power of "No": We learned to say "no" more often and explored the freedom and empowerment that comes with setting boundaries. Self-Care is Essential: We made self-care a priority, discussing the importance of finding what works best for you to nourish your mind, body, and soul. Being where are feet are and living in the Present: Finally, we emphasized the importance of being present in the moment. Being fully aware of where we are and what we're doing allows us to appreciate life's little joys. This season has been such a gift. I hope these discussions have empowered you to live a more fulfilling and authentic life. I'll be back soon with a brand new season filled with fresh inspiration and insightful conversations. In the meantime, stay tuned for some exciting updates about the show! ~Jada 💜

Hey hey hey and welcome back! In today's world, it's easy to feel like we're constantly bombarded. Between the never-ending news cycle, the pressure to stay connected, and the sheer volume of information at our fingertips, it can be hard to find a moment of peace, let alone truly focus on what's right in front of us. But what if I told you that the key to unlocking a calmer, more fulfilling life lies not in eliminating distractions, but in cultivating presence? In this episode I dive into how crucial it is to be intentionally present even in the midst of the chaos. This doesn't mean ignoring your responsibilities or shutting out the world entirely. It's about consciously choosing to be where you are, both physically and mentally. By being present, we can: * Appreciate the little things. Life is full of beauty, and it's easy to miss it when we're constantly rushing from one thing to the next. * Deepen our connections. When we're present with the people we care about, we are able to make memories we can carry forever. * Boost our productivity. When we're focused on the task at hand, we can get more done in less time, and with less stress. Alllll busy women can use this! Remember, being present is a practice. It takes time and effort, but the rewards are truly worth it. ~Jada 💜

When we are little girls, we are fearless. We dream big, laugh loud, and believe in the limitless possibilities that life holds. We're willing to chase after every aspiration with unwavering determination. But as we grow older, something changes. We become more cautious, our confidence wanes, and our dreams often take a backseat to the practicalities of life. So, what causes this shift? Societal expectations, past failures, and self-doubt can creep in, overshadowing our once-bold spirits. Responsibilities multiply, and the weight of adulthood often presses down on our dreams. Yet, even amidst these challenges, we evolve into resilient, loving beings known as momma bears. We pour every ounce of our strength and love into our children, striving to give them the world—even when we feel like we're not living up to our best. In a recent personal experience with my oldest daughter, I was reminded of the importance of showing up, no matter when we feel we fall short. It's a story I want to share with every momma bear out there. We often set impossibly high standards for ourselves, forgetting that our love, presence, and effort are what truly matter. To all the momma bears who feel like they’re falling short—remember, you are enough. Your dreams may have taken a detour, but your journey is far from over. By showing up for your children and for yourself, you teach them resilience, love, and the power of perseverance. We must keep going, not just for our children but for ourselves. They deserve to see us thrive, and we deserve to live up to our fullest potential. Let's give ourselves the grace to stumble, to rise, and to continue moving forward. After all, the world needs the fearless spirit of little girls and the unwavering strength of momma bears. Stay encouraged, and remember: showing up is half the battle. We’re in this together, and together, we can achieve so much more than we ever thought possible. ~Jada 💜

Saying "Yes" can indeed be exciting and transformative, both in interactions with others and in our relationship with ourselves. Embracing a positive and open attitude by saying "Yes" can lead to new opportunities, personal growth, and enriched experiences. Here are a few reasons why saying "Yes" can be so powerful: Saying Yes to Others Building Relationships Connection: Saying yes to social invitations, collaborative projects, and helping others can strengthen bonds and create lasting relationships. As busy women, and momma bears, we need this! New Opportunities Exploration: Accepting new opportunities, even those that seem outside your comfort zone, can lead to unexpected and enriching experiences. Saying Yes to Yourself Personal Growth Self-Discovery: Saying yes to your own desires and aspirations helps you discover who you truly are and what you are capable of achieving. Confidence: It boosts your self-confidence as you take on challenges and succeed in new endeavors. Well-being Fulfillment: Prioritizing your own needs and dreams leads to a more fulfilled and satisfying life. Balance: It helps create a healthy balance between giving to others and taking care of yourself. Creativity and Passion Innovation: Embracing your creative impulses can lead to innovative ideas and projects. Joy: Pursuing your passions and interests brings joy and a sense of purpose to your life. Practical Ways to Embrace Yes Be Open-Minded Approach new opportunities with an open mind, even if they seem daunting at first. Trust Yourself Have faith in your abilities to handle new challenges and experiences. Set Intentions Be intentional about what you say yes to, ensuring it aligns with your values and goals. Balance with Boundaries While saying yes can be empowering, it’s also important to maintain healthy boundaries to avoid burnout.

In this episode I give a special shout out to all of the women who are “mothering” our beautiful children; as well as recognize those who may be motherless. I fit into both of those categories and had to realize the importance of honoring myself to include my thoughts, feelings, and yes my grief. Here are a few ways we can look into honoring ourselves: 1. Self-Care: Physical and Mental Health: Taking care of our bodies through regular exercise, a balanced diet, and adequate rest along with engaging in activities that reduce stress, such as mindfulness, meditation, or hobbies, supports mental well-being. 2. Self-Respect and Boundaries: Saying “No!” Learning to say no when necessary protects our time and energy. This ensures that we don’t overextend ourselves, which can lead to physical and emotional exhaustion. 3. Personal Growth: Self-Reflection- Regular self-reflection allows us to understand our values, goals, and emotions. It enables us to make decisions aligned with our true selves. 4. Emotional Health: Self-Compassion- Treating ourselves with kindness and understanding, especially during times of failure or difficulty, is crucial for emotional health. It helps us bounce back from setbacks and fosters a positive self-image. 5. Supporting Others: Leading by Example - By honoring ourselves, we model healthy behaviors for others. This can inspire them to take better care of themselves. Our ability to be empathetic, patient, and effective is heightened when our own needs are met. So make sure to honor yourself daily, not waiting on certain times or dates, but as YOU need. ~Jada 💜
