Be Vulnerable & Make A Powerful Decision With T’keya Marquez and Shadé Adu

Be Vulnerable & Make A Powerful Decision. 

This was the resounding theme that arose from my roundtable conversation with T’keya Marquez and Shadé Adu. 

Oftentimes, when we think of ‘branding’ we associate it with the colors, and fonts, and aesthetics consistencies of a company. 

In reality, ‘branding’ is more complex. 

It is what people say about you when you’re not around. 

It is a movement. 

It is a feeling.

And to move people emotionally, you have to make the decision to stand for something. 

My guests this week - T’keya Marquez & Shadé Adu - both share their unique insights and perspective on all things branding, copywriting, and connecting with your people. 

T’keya Marquez has made a career out of human connection + storytelling. She is driven by creating heart-centered copy for passionate mental health and holistic wellness professionals. As a copywriter, her goal is to uncover what makes you and your brand unique. 

Shadé Adu is a digital brand strategist, international speaker and best selling author. Driven by the desire to support women entrepreneurs and facilitate the creation of generational wealth, Shadé is truly committed to offering a comprehensive range of services which is oriented towards achieving the 3 I’s; Income, Influence, and Impact. 

Shadé and T’keya both shared their inspiring and powerful origin stories and entrepreneurial journey. 

I took so many notes as I was listening to this week’s episode. 

You will walk away with tangible steps you can take towards honing in on your messaging, strengthening your brand, and standing for what truly matters to you. 

Most importantly, you will walk away with a resolution to make that important decision to step into the next chapter you are being called to begin.

5 Questions to Ask Yourself Before the New Year

How often do you intentionally reflect upon your day?

Life has a way of rushing by without allowing us time to reflect.  

And yet, it is in that reflection that we are able to gain perspective: to notice patterns, behaviors, and feelings that shape our lives. 

That very perspective is what allows us to become self-aware and intentional in how we live our lives. 

The start of a New Year provides a great collective opportunity to ask ourselves big questions. 

So this week’s episode provides 5 reflection questions you can ask yourself to close this year and start the New Year from a place of empowerment. 

When we stop and pause, we often discover new treasures:

Experiences, people, things, moments that we are grateful for – and, at the same time, ways we can embrace our badass selves a little more boldly and deeply. 

As you go through this week’s episode, I’d love to hear about your discoveries.  

If you’re feeling generous, please share with me some of your notes or the answers you find. 

Do yourself this favor. 

Gift yourself this time. 

Let’s do it. 

Hit play.

Defining Success

Have you been following along on our “Manifesting Your Adventure” series? Most of you know that 2020 is my “Year of Adventure” and in honor of my upcoming adventure, I’d like to give you some tools to allow you to have this year be your most wonderful year yet. I invite you to cast aside any preconceptions you might have about what an adventure is or has to look like.

I’ve brought together 3 amazing people from different industries and took them through a 7-day workshop with experiential hands-on activities and exercises and from those hours I put together an online course to share with you called “Manifesting Your Adventure.”

Welcome to Naming Your Adventure! This is our third installment of our “Manifesting Your Adventure” workshop and if you haven’t tuned into our first 2 episodes in the series, you want to go back and listen to days 1 and 2 (March 9 and 16).

On day 3, we talk about your definition of success. We want to make sure we are not heading towards a goal that sounds good in theory but once you get there doesn’t bring you any joy.

How has your definition consciously or subconsciously been influencing your decisions? For many of us, success has been defined for us by our parents, our society, and our culture. Without realizing it, we have been consciously or subconsciously striving to achieve a bar of success we may not even believe in anymore.

This week’s experiential episode will engage you in creating a holistic perspective of success. After listening to this workshop, you will be empowered to attain a realistic, accurate and updated vision of how you want to measure the life you’re living.

Make sure to go back to the last 2 episodes before you go through this one. If you’d like to go through the rest of the 7-day program, I’m giving you the gift of 30 days free of T.H.E. Celebration Academy membership. As a member, you receive access to all of our class and are able to participate in the monthly live workshop that is exclusively for members.

Defining Success

What is your definition of success?  How has your definition consciously or subconsciously been influencing your decisions?  For many of us, success has been defined for us by our parents, our society, and our culture.  Without realizing it, we have been consciously or subconsciously striving to achieve a bar of success we may not even believe in anymore.

Let’s end 2018 intentionally by determining for ourselves, fully aware, what success means. While achievement is heavily stressed in our culture, often reflecting upon what creates fulfillment and true happiness is left behind.

This week’s experiential episode will engage you in creating a holistic perspective of success.

After listening to this workshop, you will be empowered to attain a realistic, accurate and updated vision of how you want to measure the life you’re living.
