Summary

In today's episode of the Affirmations for Black Girls Podcast, join host Tyra The Creative as we embark on a journey of self-discovery and reflection. With March's theme of "A Soul Refresh," we're diving into emotional and mental spring cleaning by exploring our childhoods and embracing discomfort as a pathway to learning. Through thought-provoking questions, we'll gain a better understanding of our perspective and inner workings.

This week’s Affirmation is “I am an open book, ready to explore the pages of my soul with an open heart and open mind.”

Questions:

How were you praised as a child?
What am I putting off that feels important? Why am I avoiding it?
When was the last time I truly enjoyed my own company? What was I doing?
What’s something that was said to me in my childhood that I carry to this day? What would I say to my younger self now?
What’s become more important to me recently than ever before?
What have I always accepted as true that turned out to be false?

Key Takeaways:

Childhood Praise: Reflecting on how we were praised as children can provide insights into our self-worth and perspectives on success.

Embracing Discomfort: By leaning into discomfort and exploring uncomfortable topics, such as our childhood experiences, we can foster personal growth and self-awareness.

Self-Reflection as a Daily Practice: Self-reflection should be an ongoing journey, allowing us to understand our motivations, navigate life's challenges, and cultivate clarity and purpose.

0:00.0	Happy March family. In the spirit of decluttering for spring, this month our theme is a soul refresh
0:07.8	and we're diving deep into emotional and mental spring cleaning, releasing what no longer serves us and making space for positive growth
0:16.4	and new experiences. And to kick off the month, I wanted to start at the beginning.
0:24.3	Our Childhoods. Uf, for a lot of us, this is very uncomfortable, but as you know, here in this space,
0:31.4	we welcome discomfort and lean into learning how to navigate it.
0:35.6	Powerful.
0:38.6	Few things are as powerful. What is going on beautiful people? You are listening to the
0:56.3	affirmations for Black Girls Podcast where we focus on personal growth and
1:00.8	cultivating a healthy relationship with ourselves.
1:04.4	I am your host, Tyra the Creative, actress, content creator, and mental health enthusiast.
1:10.5	Y'all, we are already in the third month of 2024.
1:15.0	Y'all, time flies. They say it flies when you're having fun, but baby, it just feels like it's flying.
1:21.0	Now, we haven't done this in a while but today's episode is going to be
1:27.4	centered around a few thought-provoking questions to help you learn more about your perspective in life and get closer to your
1:34.9	inner child. When I started getting to know myself reflection exercises like we're
1:40.7	about to do today were super hard for me. I couldn't grasp the idea of
1:45.7	compiling data or taking inventory of things that I had experienced or soaked up
1:50.9	through life and then making sense of it all. In other words, my default
1:56.1	state of mind was, well I don't know why I'm like this I just am. And what I
2:01.2	realized is that mindset hurt no one but me because I saw that I was truly living in a state of constant confusion and I was grasping at anything to help me feel grounded or have a sense of clarity.
2:17.0	Now, before we get started with our questions, let's jump into our affirmation of the week.
2:24.0	This week's affirmation is,
