Episode Summary: In this episode, we dive into the concept of "having it all" and challenge the societal expectations that often dictate what success and fulfillment should look like—especially for Black women. I share my journey of redefining what it means to truly "have it all," exploring how our desires, beliefs, and personal definitions shape our paths to joy and pleasure.  Whether you're a high-achieving, Type-A perfectionist or someone just beginning to question what fulfillment means for you, this episode will help you start rethinking and reclaiming your own narrative.  Stay tuned until the end for a special sneak peek of *Owning Pleasure as a Black Woman XXX*!  Key Takeaways:1. Question the “Can’t Have It All” Myth: Natasha challenges listeners to ask why they’ve accepted limits placed by others and to take back control of defining their desires.  2. Shift the Focus to You: "Having it all" isn’t about material success for everyone. Natasha shares how her priorities shifted from external markers of success to internal peace, balance, and connection.  3. Uncover What You Truly Want: Through practices like journaling, meditation, and dance, Natasha found clarity on her desires and shares how you can, too.  4. It’s Okay for Desires to Evolve: Your vision of “having it all” can—and should—change as you grow. Stay curious and flexible as you uncover new aspirations.  5. Life Isn’t Either-Or: Why settle for just one flavor of ice cream when you can try them all? Natasha encourages embracing abundance in all its forms.  Listen Now:Ready to redefine your version of “having it all”? Start by journaling about what makes you feel alive, peaceful, and fulfilled.

Episode Summary:In today’s episode, I dive into what it means to create space in your life for new experiences, pleasure, and peace. Have you ever felt so overloaded with responsibilities, tasks, and lingering emotions that you can't fully receive what you want and need? Just like a computer that needs space to function, our minds and lives require room for us to welcome joy and ease. I share my own recent experience with a “full” computer as a metaphor for our internal and emotional lives, exploring how we can make space for what truly serves us.Key Takeaways:1. Understand Why You’re Full: Acknowledge the mental, emotional, and physical "files" you've accumulated and ask if they still serve you.2. Identify Signs of Overload: Notice when you’re feeling overwhelmed or when productivity feels forced rather than fulfilling.3. Clear Out What You Don’t Need: Whether it’s obligations, emotions, or objects, start removing what's no longer aligned with who you are.4. Embrace New Space with Courage: Step into your next chapter with courage and trust that, despite the discomfort, you’re creating room for something better.---Listen Now:Notice that you’re always feeling “full” and too exhausted for the things that make you feel good inside?
