You Are Loved

"Stay strong and remember that you are loved."


Or be weak and know that you are loved.

Cry and know that you are loved. 

Be wrong and know that you are loved.

And if you have a good friend that speaks the truth to you, straight, no chaser, you really are loved. 

The big question is: Do you see the love around you? 

Have you ever taken the time to think back and realize that you were never alone? 

Those people were placed in your life to love you.


The Love is There...

We are wired to love.

It is our greatest asset as humans.

Embrace it!

It doesn't make you weak to want love.

Wherever love finds you, accept it. 

Open yourself to it.

I am not talking about romantic love!

But...Okay. 

This can apply.

But this goes so much deeper than that.

The love you feel for yourself will be the love you attract.

From everyone. 


"Love yourself as much as you want to be loved"

We focus so much on who doesn't love us, that we miss all who do.

We also forget to love and appreciate all that we are. 

Remember this: when we love ourselves, we attract love.

When we love ourselves we are able to embrace love. 

You have to remind yourself of this.

There is a quote that I love because it is the truth: "Love yourself first because that's who you'll be spending the rest of your life with."

Take this to heart. 

Practice self-love. 

See and feel the love around you.

Wishing you love and peace...but mostly, Peace.

Are You Dumb?

"Racism, because it favors color over talent, is bad for business."  Steven Pinker Some years ago one of my more wealthy clients said to me that racism in business is not sustainable. That after a while, and it might take a while, like a piece of fruit, the rot from the inside starts to show. We see it all around us. Huge corporations that have been around for some time now, are being derailed, failing, lawsuits abound. Why? Because they forgot the first rule of business: Y our personal feelings are your feelings. But if someone is making money for you or can make money for you...Hire them and keep them. This is why I ask the question: Are you dumb? We live in an age where nothing is secret. Everyone is on Social Media spewing their hatred(s), outrage, naked pictures, etc. on various sites. As a money making business owner, why would you think it was copacetic to hinder someone in your business from progressing, make lewd/racial comments or be violent against someone be...

I'm Not Lying! You Can Lose The Weight

Image
  "Don't make it harder than it is." Me. For the longest time, I have listened to people talk about weight loss as if it can not be done without full-on drama. The Fitness Industry, being the biggest propagator of this fallacy. Now, you might be asking yourself, "Why is Dawn, The Trainer, writing this? Isn't she part of the Fitness Industry?"  Yes. Yes, I am.  I was also really big at one time. It's a both sides of the fence type of thing.  And believe me, this blog isn't going to stop the Fitness Industry from enjoying the $25.6 billion it made in 2021(projected to jump 26% to earn $114.3 billion in revenue by 2028). Nor do I want people to stop getting fit.  I want you to get fit in a healthy, using common sense type of way. Where Tape Worms aren't placed in your intestines(yeah! that's made a resurgence). Or you aren't eating real food but depending solely on protein shakes and exercise to lose weight. Where you aren't ...

Being Black, A Woman & Why & How I Have Peace

Image
We must learn how to live in the space of inner peace in our everyday lives. This takes consistent, conscious effort because I know so many black women are hurting and sad, and we don't easily express our heartache or show our wounds.  Susan L. Taylor I have peace. I told a total stranger on Twitter that I was going to write about how to have inner - peace. Because getting it isn't easy. It takes work! It takes dedication and a willingness to walk away from anything and anyone that will not take your peace seriously. The question is always "How do I gain and keep my peace?" But the real question is: What are you willing to do to get peace? Seriously! Who and what are you willing to give up to have peace? I can only speak as a Black Woman. It's who I am. And what I know is that as  African-Americans we have been inundated with trauma. Day after day, story after story, through film, books, etc. trauma is disseminated and consumed. Trauma, in regards t...
