  and allow the host to come on. Hey, hey, hey, everyone,
• 5:55
  First and foremost, let me apologize for my tardiness. Today has today
• 6:00
  like never before. But you have chat jumped into a chat with me here
• 6:09
  on delay but not denied the podcast where you may be delayed, but you're
• 6:14
  never denied. So tonight I'm not gonna be before you very long. I
• 6:19
  don't have a guest and I haven't mastered having a conversation with just me,
• 6:27
  so tonight I just want to talk about setting up how your future is going
• 6:35
  to be and what you speak over yourself. My granddaughter has confirmations that she
• 6:46
  says every morning, every morning, and I just want to read them to
• 6:55
  you just because she knows them. And so she says, Hi, I'm
• 7:04
  Kaylani, I am kind, I'm loved, I try my best, I
• 7:10
  can do hard things. I believe in myself. And so I asked her,
• 7:15
  did that make you feel good? And she says yes, And I
• 7:17
  ask why? She says, because I'm Kaylani. And I can do anything,
• 7:23
  and I've made some well, my son's girlfriend made some affirmations for me,
• 7:32
  just to help me along the way with where I'm trying to be within
• 7:40
  myself and the people around me. So I am Latanya, I'm loved by
• 7:46
  many, I am at peace with my past, and I am in control
• 7:51
  of my future. I am a magnet for success and prosperity. I thrive
• 7:58
  independently. I take radical responsibility for making my dreams come true. I'm valued,
• 8:05
  I'm confident in my abilities. I am a source of inspiration to many
• 8:11
  people. So I asked you all, what do you do to get yourself
• 8:18
  going? How do you keep yourself moving in the right direction? You know
• 8:24
  life is hard and it's it's not always easy to to remain positive. So
• 8:33
  you know I'm taking comments or what have you? Miss Let's good night,
• 8:41
  miss Powder, so as you know you probably can tell I am winging it,
• 8:48
  but just wanted to encourage somebody somewhere to show up for yourself. Even
• 8:56
  if you show up late, show up for yourself. You are your own
• 9:03
  representation and nobody can tell it like you. So you know, whatever you
• 9:11
  have to do to put one foot in front of the other do that.
• 9:16
  Do that if it's not hurting anybody, if it's not causing you harm within
• 9:24
  yourself, do that, like your mental help, your mental state of mind
• 9:33
  needs that, So you know, I I would just like to say that,
• 9:43
  Well, they can't see my comments. I'm sorry. Okay, let
• 9:52
  me see if I'm doing this right. I don't know if anybody can see
• 10:01
  my comments. But black Diamond, I see, I see you. You
• 10:05
  use a vision board. Okay, what does your vision board? And tell
• 10:11
  if you don't mind sharing that, like, you know what what was what
• 10:16
  was it that brought you to making that vision board for yourself? And where
• 10:22
  do you see it taking you? And so you know that's that's always been
• 10:30
  a thing for me. Like you have to show up for yourself. Mental
• 10:35
  health is real, It really is real. So many people crack under pressure
• 10:41
  because they don't have anybody to talk to. They feel judged, they feel
• 10:50
  like nobody believes them. And if you find yourself in a situation where you
• 10:56
  feel like you know none of that is where you want to be, then
• 11:03
  sometimes it's good to seek out people you don't know because I mean, they
• 11:07
  can they can really help you. Yes, ma'am Broke don't look good on
• 11:13
  me, and it don't look good on me either, So I get it.
• 11:16
  I understand it. And it's just things like that. You have to
• 11:22
  speak things over yourself, like I hate seeing people say I'm out with my
• 11:28
  little broke best friend. Why you speak in brokeness over that baby. Don't
• 11:33
  don't do that, speak wealth health over that child. I'm out with my
• 11:41
  little rich best friend. Even if you're the one putting the bill, you
• 11:46
  know what I'm saying. So you know, just be careful. There's so
• 11:48
  much power in the tongue, and it can be used for some of the
• 11:54
  worst things. And it's up to you to decide what you're using that power
• 12:01
  for. You can use it for good, you can use it for bad.
• 12:05
  It's not you know, and your best interest to use it for bad,
• 12:09
  however, and free will, so you know absolutely Proverbs eighteen and twenty
• 12:18
  one. Absolutely, And so you know, you just you just have to
• 12:24
  find you, even if that means getting with yourself, the nakedness of you,
• 12:35
  and just getting to know who you are, peeling off the layers of
• 12:41
  trauma, drama, and all of those things that have held you in the
• 12:46
  place that you are, that have held you in like your own mental prison.
• 12:52
  You have to do the work, like you have to see your worth
• 12:56
  and decide that hey, I can't live like this, I can't do this.
• 13:03
  I deserve better, I'm worth more, and go from there like you
• 13:09
  know you have, you have your whole life, and for some of us,
• 13:15
  we have more time behind us than we have in front of us.
• 13:18
  So you know you have to make every moment count and right. What works
• 13:24
  for you doesn't always work for everyone. Absolutely, because no two people are
• 13:31
  walking this journey the same way. If they say they are their line,
• 13:35
  and because it's not that simple. We all have our own trials and tribulations
• 13:41
  that we have to endure. I always say God never said that they wouldn't
• 13:50
  rain. He just promised that we wouldn't get with And I believe that,
• 13:54
  like with my whole heart, no matter how deep depression has taking me down
• 14:01
  the rabbit hole, I'm still here to fight like I'm fighting for me.
• 14:07
  I'm not waiting on anybody else to fight for me. It's me against me
• 14:13
  at this point, and you know it's it's all in what you want to
• 14:20
  see for yourself. You know where you want to see yourself in the next
• 14:24
  five ten minutes. You gotta find your niche. You know, a lot
• 14:30
  of people don't know what their purpose is, and you know, for a
• 14:33
  while, I didn't know what mine was. You know, I had my
• 14:37
  son at sixteen. I quit school because I was being bullied, and you
• 14:43
  know, so like you have to, you have to stick up for yourself.
• 14:50
  You have to trust in whoever you believe that they guide you. They
• 14:58
  god your steps, they order your step, and they keep you in a
• 15:01
  frame of mind that when you feel yourself going off the deep end, you're
• 15:09
  able to bring yourself back because you're needed. You know, you may not
• 15:15
  believe that, you may feel like you don't mean anything to anybody, but
• 15:22
  somebody is out there rooting for you, and you have to fight for them.
• 15:28
  You have to fight for yourself for them so they see what it looks
• 15:33
  like. Is it always pretty? No, it's not. It's not.
• 15:39
  Know that you're never alone. If anybody from this podcast can do anything for
• 15:48
  you, if you need somebody to talk to, it's a bunch of ladies.
• 15:54

• 15:58

• 16:26
  able to stand here right now with nothing prepared and just allowing God to use
• 16:33
  me in the way that he see fit. So, you know, no

• 18:26
  learn about depression disorders. They cause symptoms that affect how you feel, how
• 18:33
  you think, and how you handle daily life. Depression should be treated by
• 18:37
  health professionals. Don't try to handle it alone or treat it with alcohol or
• 18:45
  illegal drugs. Treatments include psychotherapy or talk therapy, medication, and sometimes brain
• 18:52
  stimulation therapy. These treatments may also be used in combination with one another.
• 18:57
  If you think you might have depression, talk to a trusted friend, family
• 19:02
  member, or healthcare provider. The earlier treatment begins, the more effective it
• 19:07
  is. Learn more about depression through the nim H website and take sixty seconds
• 19:12
  to share this mental health minute to help someone else a person. All things
• 19:26
