When it comes to taking risks with things we are thinking about doing “You can grow into those positions & meet those expectations & we are only limiting ourselves when we don’t take those risks and chances and have the courage to JUST TRY.” – Natasha Rothwell (HBO’s Insecure) Being young this quote is assuring my self doubts & sabotage so I can be as great that I know I can be if I analyze/rationalize less. Assuring that by trying, everything will fall in place how it’s supposed to. Assuring that whatever decision I make what will happen will go based off that decision I make & being confident and proud of that decision. Read more>>

“The reason most people fail is because they give up what they want most for what they want now.” This quote speaks volumes to the world we live in today. A lot of us give up on our goals and dreams for quick gratification. If we give up what we want most, for what we want now, we’ll eventually lookup and realize we’re on a hamster wheel and never fell fulfilled.

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. ” -Proverbs 3:5-6 NLT I was introduced to this scripture in 2020, At the time I was trying to control and juggle everything that was going on in my life and it started to drive me crazy. My Counselor introduced me this scripture, as an assignment, to help me to relinquish control of things that was out of my limit. When my Counselor brought Proverbs 3:5-6 to my attention, he said “I want you to memorize this scripture and say it to yourself everyday for the next thirty days and watch how God moves in your life.” Read more>>

My favorite quote is one that I kinda just started telling myself. It’s “Whatever happens is going to happen when it’s supposed to & how it’s supposed to”. To me that means don’t worry. Let it flow. Control what you can control adapt to what you can’t. I like it because it lets me be free & move how I feel & not based on social pressure. Read more>>
Atiya Spencer | Life Coach
My favorite affirmation is ” I will not be a cup holder. I will not continue to allow people to pour out of my cup for there to be nothing left for me”. I often work with people who have experienced someone relying on them for everything but couldn’t reciprocate the energy leaving them left with nothing while they build that person back whole. This affirmation means that you will not be the “go-to” person for every crisis in other people’s lives. Read more>>
