dear dope chick,
welcome + welcome back!
you already know where i’m going with this. i’m already smiling because i know what I’m about to say + i think you may, too —
are you ready to take action today?
what you’ll need:
for those who are new here, who haven’t been here in quite a while, or have been rockin’ with me since day one —
dear dope chick™ is an action based podcast so that means that every single episode you are challenged to take one small step that aligns with living life on your own terms.
that means you’re taking one step today — small, big, doesn’t matter the size, really — that aligns with the lifestyle that you most desire.
you don’t have to do diddly squat.
as i always say, you have a choice.
you don’t have to do diddly squat (yes, i say that) meaning you don’t have to do anything.
you can decide to do nothing today.
now in the long run, when you’re looking at yourself wondering why life isn’t moving in accordance to the direction you want it to move, you have to take accountability for the decisions you’re making now.
well, technically you don’t have to do anything, but what does it serve you to not take accountability for your actions leading up to this moment?
take accountability for the actions that you are taking for the actions that you are not taking.
understand that it’s your responsibility — response + ability — that determines what it is that you’ll get done in life.
when you say you don’t have time, that is an excuse.
when you say you don’t have the resources, that is an excuse.
when you say you don’t have the skills or the knowledge, well maybe right now you don’t have it all, sure, but that is also an excuse.
because you don’t need to have everything lined up how you think it should look in order to start.
you have everything that you need right now to get started.
we’re gonna talk about this in this episode. we’re really gonna dig deep so stay tuned, but hear me on this:
your choice is your choice + no one over here is forcing you to make a choice.
all i can say is that i highly encourage you to get started today.
all it takes is one step today.
it doesn’t have to be anything that’s overwhelming.
we’re not looking for you to be drained, we’re looking for you to get going + when you can see it from a different perspective, instead of something draining you reframe it into “i get the opportunity today…“.
i get the opportunity today to take a leap.
i get the opportunity today to seize the moment.
i get the opportunity today to utilize one of the many possibilities that’s presented to me.
i get to do that!
once you shift your mindset from “i have to” to “i get to” , it’s a gamechanger!
so, do you wanna change the game or do you want to continue to stay in the rat race?
you don’t have to continue doing what you’ve been doing.
you owe it to yourself to steer your life in the direction that you’ve always wanted to go + you can do that for yourself today.
let’s get to work!
so, grab a notebook or journal that is dedicated to this podcast so that you can participate in the activities and exercises discussed; to see how much you have grown over the course of your life.
have you heard our previous episodes?
not yet ready do the activities presented in this episode?

you can listen to them here.
to do this week:
stay headstrong
today’s action is to stay persistent.
when i say stay persistent, yes physically keep doing all the things that align with your desired lifestyle because you are acting that out, but more importantly stay persistent in your belief that what you most desire is happening for you right now!
when you are headstrong in the belief that “whatever I’ve asked for is happening for me right now“, your body is automatically gonna follow suit.
because you’ve already put in your mind that:
“it’s worked out for me + i’m not going to worry about it. i going to continue to do what i need to do to ensure that i am living the life that i most desire”
+ when you are living the life that you most desire, then all of these things that you are petitioning for are coming to you anyway because you are aligned with what you’re doing.
when you fuck around + find out
believe that once you put it out there, life is shifting + working + moving to make your requests, your proclamations, available to you.
you said it?
believe that it’s happening for you!
even when you forget about the requests you’ve made, know that there’s still some shifting happening on your behalf.
yes, even the shit that you don’t want to happen for you is happening for you —
you put it out there, right?
when you put it out there + you may be facing a case of “fuck around + find out“. 😶
that’s why it’s important to use your tongue wisely, to use your thoughts wisely, + to use your actions wisely.
when you say it, you start putting shit into motion.
there is power in your tongue, so much power.
we must show care in the words that we speak.
over the course of the week
over the course of the week, watch what thoughts you entertain, watch what comes from your lips, watch how you speak to others.
in other words:
be intentional about what you say.
that takes accountability + that is responsibility in motion.
it’s up to you to have a level of care for what comes out of your mouth.
so speak life.
speak on things that interest you, that inspire you to live in your highest realm.
dwell on the divine.
keep your heart light + your focus heavy on what speaks to your soul.
additionally, keep reciting those affirmations!
for 21 days straight we are reciting previously written affirmations.
continue reciting your affirmations this week.

my final thoughts:
it doesn’t matter how bleak that shit looks,
it doesn’t matter how long you’ve been trying,
it doesn’t matter how impossible it may seem —
there is a way.
toss out the timelines.
most of the time we’re looking for the way we believe it should be in this exact moment.
while the universe is conspiring for our good at all times, it’s not delivering demands at the snap of a finger.
ain’t no genies around here.
begin trusting the timing of your life.
trust that your petitions are heard + are acted upon accordingly.
your only job is to speak it, believe it, + act like it’s a done deal for you.
you don’t have to worry, you don’t have to wonder, + you don’t have to figure out how it’s gonna happen.
remember that there is always a way.
+ that way is already designed + waiting for you to believe in its existence so that it can appear right when you need it most.
there is nothing fancy that you have to do.
make your petitions, proclamations, + affirmations clear.
say what you mean to say.
in this instance, silence is better than saying any + everything.
you don’t have to be heard just to be heard.
have some purpose behind what it is that you want to say.
have some purpose behind everything that you do.
what you rushing for?
society has programmed us to rush our communication efforts:
- calls around the clock
- texting on demand
- emails that petition immediate response
- to rush our ideas + to hurry up + put it out there before someone else does
it’s not about that.
those are silly, man-made timelines that are really obsolete.
they only mean something to the people who are participating in them; the use them + think they mean something.
the reality is: there is no timeline for The Divine.
when God says it is, it is.
+ the God in you saying, “this is what it is“. so boom. done deal.
believe in God’s timing. believe in the timing of your life.
believe that things are created + have been created for you accordingly.
it’s done.
you have been given the ability to speak life.
you have been giving the ability to make a conscious effort, to put intention behind your words + actions.
use it for your good.
say, “it is” + believe it.
you have the power to change your life + it starts in being persistent in your beliefs, being persistent in knowing that everything is already worked out for you.
you can switch up your way of life at any given moment that’s why it’s important to stay persistent in your thoughts + to think on things that are in alignment with the lifestyle that you most desire.
fuck all the rest.
don’t worry about what other people got going on — the gossip, the breaking headlines — worry about what you’ve got going on.
stay persistent.
