Welcome to the Capacity Conversations Podcast. This is what I like to call a “sister-friend” community, which is the safe space to talk openly and honestly about the challenges we face while managing the competing priorities between our personal and professional lives. Many of us are either in corporate, an entrepreneur of a combination of the two, on top of being moms, wives, caregivers, big sister’s or just the go-to person in our circles of friends and families. Having all that responsibility can leave you overwhelmed and depleted if you don’t take inventory of where you’re at on a regular basis. Based on five pillars, we talk about how to create flow in each area, without ever having to sacrifice yourself, your family, and what matters most to you. The five pillars are: 1. Heart Flow - Relationships, Values & Boundaries 2. Work Flow - Growth, Fulfillment & Balance 3. Health Flow - Mental, Emotional & Physical 4. Cash Flow - Mindset, Habits & Legacy 5. Faith Flow - Foundation & Functioning

When is the last time to you gave yourself permission to pause? Like REALLY pause from it all… unapologetically? At this time of year, especially, we run ourselves raggedy trying to show others how much we love them, we give more than we have, and at the end of the year many of us are at the end of our ropes. Literally and figuratively!
In today’s episode, I give you all the tea on giving myself permission to pause (and it was hard for me y’all), and more importantly I share a ton of information on how and why you should give your permission to pause too!
Specifically, I talk about that thoughts that come up when you consider pausing, some of the signs we see when it’s time to pause and then give you the rundown on the benefits of pausing:
3 Thoughts that Keep you from Pausing
- If I don’t do it, it won’t get done
- I don’t have time to pause
- What will other people think
4 Signs You Need to Pause

- Your energy is on E
- You’re restless (sleep, thinking, decision making)

Having all that responsibility can leave you overwhelmed and depleted if you don’t take inventory of where you’re at on a regular basis.
After spending over 18 years in Corporate America, I, like many other women of color, came to the painful realization that it’s not set up to support us. However, we have the power to change that by having transparent conversations.
This has fueled my work as both an HR leader and Capacity Coach, as I’ve made it my mission to help as many women and business as possible to understand how our professional lives are impacted by what’s going on in our personal lives.
In today’s episode, I talk openly and honestly about my experience as an HR leader and being a Black Woman. I share tips on
- How black women can navigate corporate
- Why business need diversity, equity + inclusion
- What each of us can do to change this harsh reality

Do you work your muscles on a regular basis? In order for them to function properly and support us like they’re supposed to, we gotta work ‘em out! But for some reason, we don’t always take that same approach when it comes to our faith… which is also a muscle!
In today’s episode, I talk with Faith Mentor, Daphne Butts, who after receiving a life altering health diagnosis at the age of 27, has used her faith to LITERALLY heal herself, and WITHOUT the doctor recommended medication. Yes, you heard me right!
Now, she uses the strength in her faith muscle to help other women of faith through her coaching company, Healing through Intentional Victory, by looking to God to work in three key areas:
Mindset - shifting it to support you
Mouthpiece - what you speak over yourself
Management - managing what you intake
Daphne gives us all kinda nuggets to help us get our #faithflow together. Listen to this week’s episode to learn how to:
- Build our faith muscle
- Begin practicing obedience
- To start talking to God

Having all that responsibility can leave you overwhelmed and depleted if you don’t take inventory of where you’re at on a regular basis.
Now that we are officially in the last quarter of the year, I want you to take some time and think about all that you've already accomplished. Instead of focusing on what you DIDN’T get done on your list of goals, let’s shift to what you DID do!
Because we are in the age of instant success + instant gratification, it’s soooooo easy to minimize the small things you’ve done that have gotten you where you are today. That’s why I believe it’s essential, not just important, to celebrate the small stuff.
In today’s episode, I share with you:
- 5 Reasons why you need to celebrate your wins
- 5 Tips you can use to celebrate those wins
- 5 Small wins I’m celebrating going in to 2022
After you’ve listened, I invite you to connect with me on social media. I love to hear how this is helping you, so make sure you tag me on Facebook or Instagram with your favorite takeaway from the episode, as well as what win you’re celebrating this week.

I know it may sound weird at first to say or think to yourself – I am a business… but you really are. And you are BIG BUSINESS, as one of my coaches and mentors Brittany Burrell says. Whether you are working on your personal or professional relationships, climbing the corporate ladder, or pitching your business for partnerships, you have to understand your value.
In today’s episode, I talk with the CEO of Opulent Outcomes Coaching and Consulting, LLC, Cassandra Alexis. She shares her 20+ years of experience working as a global marketer for companies such as Disney and Exon Mobile and why each and everyone one of us needs to live and run our lives like the businesses we are. She gives tips on how to start:
- Unlocking and understanding your unique value
- Believing in and marketing your value
- Being intentional about your vision and goals

Having all that responsibility can leave you overwhelmed and depleted if you don’t take inventory of where you’re at on a regular basis.
I realized during my break from the podcast that I only did a handful of episodes around faith. So what better way to jump into the new season than with an episode that will leave you feeling like a sermon on a Tuesday?
In today’s episode, I talk with the two-time author and highly sought after coach, Tiffany Huff-Struthers. As a Wife, Mother and woman of faith, she is called to minister and mentor women and passionate about helping women reinvent themselves following their worst setbacks, find their voices and build businesses with their stories.
Tiffany gives us some nuggets of wisdom around what she calls the To-Don’t List, and helps us manage our never-ending list of to-do’s by exploring three simple but powerful questions/suggestions we all need to consider:
- What can you delegate?
- What can you automate?
- What can you eliminate?
Listen to this episode to learn more ways that you can manage your capacity in every area of your life!

Who’s in your SQUAD? Who do you spend the most time with? Did you know that whoever they are, they impact your life in a major way? About 95% of your ability to fail or succeed is impacted by your friends and family, to be exact.
In honor of it being National Best Friend’s day today, June 8th, I’m doing another check-in, but this time it’s for those in your circle of influence. After I realized that I needed to do some pruning in my circle, I knew I needed to share this with the world, because IT’S. NOT. EASY. And it takes an unwavering commitment to becoming who you know you want and need to become. Check out this weeks episode as I tell you:
Why your circle of influence is so important
- They have the biggest impact on our behavior
- They influence our attitudes, believes and thoughts
- They impact our results
4 Types of Sister-Friends You Need
- Prayer Warrior
- Sophisti-Rachet
- Motivator/Edge Snatcher
- Trailblazing Mentor
How to Find your SQUAD
- Look outside the box (not just with friends and fam)
- Put yourself in groups that align with your goals, passion and purpose
- Pray for them, and keep praying for them to be sent to you
