S4:E10 | Unlocking Your Limitless Mind – part II

What if you already have everything you need to grow... but haven't fully recognized it yet?

This week on Proactive Is the Way, we continue our summer series, Unlocking Your Limitless Mind, inspired by Jim Kwik's Limitless.

Together, we'll explore the power of recognizing your unique strengths and the importance of turning knowledge into action.

Because growth isn't about becoming someone else. It's about developing the gifts you already possess and having the courage to use them.

Join the conversation as we continue challenging old limitations and expanding what's possible.

S4:E7 The Illusions of Life, Death, and New Beginnings

What if illness isn’t the end…but an invitation to evolve?

In this episode of Proactive Is the Way, we explore a powerful shift in perspective inspired by Dying to Be Me by Anita Moorjani.

✨ Illness is not a death sentence

✨ Fear is not your truth

✨ Embrace Love

This conversation invites you to release fear, embrace love, and remember who you truly are, a spiritual being having a human experience.

If you’ve been seeking healing, clarity, or a deeper understanding of life this episode is for you.

S4:E6 Beyond Survival: Choosing Abundance Over the Illusion of Scarcity

Hello, my friends!

Tiffany and I continue the conversation on choosing abundance over the illusion of scarcity, and this one goes deeper.

This episode challenged us to rethink:

💫 Scarcity isn’t just external, it can be internal💫 The difference between a thought and thinking

💫 Goals driven by inspiration… or desperation

Because sometimes the pressure we feel isn’t coming from the world…it’s coming from the belief that we’re not enough.

S4:E5 Beyond Survival: Choosing Abundance Over the Illusion of Scarcity

What if the biggest thing holding you back… isn’t your circumstances, but the thoughts you believe about them?

In this episode of Proactive Is the Way, we begin a new conversation about the scarcity mindset, why we develop it and how it quietly keeps us stuck in survival mode.

This month’s featured book, Don’t Believe Everything You Think by Joseph Nguyen, challenges us to question the patterns that limit our peace, fulfillment, and joy.

What if there is enough… and you are enough?

✨ It’s time to move beyond survival

✨ Shift your thinking

✨ And step into expansion

S4:E2 Lean In: How to Turn Obstacles Into Momentum

This month we’ve been unpacking The Obstacle Is the Way by Ryan Holiday, and in this episode, we wrap it all up by exploring the 3 disciplines that turn resistance into results:

💫 Perception: how you choose to see it 💫 Action: how you choose to move 💫 Will: how you choose to endure and rise

In this conversation, we reflect on the book’s biggest takeaways, the stories that stayed with us, and how you can use challenges as fuel instead of friction.

Because this is your permission to evolve:

✨ To reframe the challenge ✨ To move differently ✨ To become stronger through what you face

💫 Permission to Evolve: Breaking False Narratives to Step Into Real Freedom 💫

Last season, I chose to go inward.

I worked on my mindset.

I aligned my self-care with real life, not perfection.

I laid foundations for wealth, wellness, and purpose.

I did the work I had been avoiding.

And now… it’s time to bring you with me.

Season 4 of Proactive Is the Way is for anyone who knows they’re meant for more, but feels held back by old stories.

✨ Growth is calling. Will you answer?

Sunday, September 28, 2025

Money isn’t just math, it’s mindset.

In this week’s episode of The Glow-Up Guide to Money Management: A Money Mindset Reset, Tiffany and I get real about the psychology of money.

We dive into 3 powerful chapters from The Psychology of Money: 💰 No One Is Crazy 💰 Tails, You Win 💰 Save Money

From our mom’s biblical-yet-excessive spending to our dad’s “work hard, make that money” hustle mentality, we share how those lessons shaped us differently. I lean minimalist (raising 3 kids on a budget with little room to invest) while Tiffany embraces her spendthrift side with an investor’s edge.

It’s a candid, funny, and eye-opening conversation about how family influences, faith, and experience shape the way we handle money today.

In this episode, we’re diving deep into spiritual alignment and how connecting with divine wisdom can bring clarity, resilience, and purpose to our lives.

A couple of weeks ago, I shared my personal journey while I don’t follow a specific religion, my connection with GOD is personal and ever-present. Through the challenges and triumphs, I’ve found strength by embracing spiritual principles like those found in Deepak Chopra’s, The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success.

We’ll explore thought-provoking questions like:

✨ How do you define your spiritual or religious identity?

✨ Has your faith or spiritual practice added value to your life?

✨ Is a spiritual practice necessary for success and fulfillment?

✨ What law from The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success resonates with you the most?

Join me as we unpack these questions and share insights on how aligning with divine wisdom can transform your life.

Proactive is the Way

💫Ascension: The Glow Up!💫

This season is personal….really personal. For the first time, I’m doing this for me, and only me. I know that sounds selfish, but hear me out: if I’m ever going to be of true service to others, I need to pour into myself first. This season is my journey to refill my cup, stay committed to growth, and create win-win situations for everyone I encounter.

What to Expect This Season:

This isn’t just another podcast—it’s my audio memoir. A place where I’ll reflect, learn, and work through key areas of my life. This season is about fast-tracking my goals, leveling up in every area of life, and laying the foundation for years to come.

And as always, I invite YOU to come along on this journey. While this season will be very self focused, I am open to creating space for all of us to grow, evolve, and shine. Growth is more powerful when it’s shared.  If you’re ready to step into your next chapter, let’s do this together.

✨ Listen to the trailer to learn more!

Mindset Matters: Breaking Down Barriers and Succeeding in 2025

Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally 💔

Some lessons come with a cost. Today, I'm diving deep into a law that shook me to my core. Moving through every phase of resistance into acceptance, I found myself grappling with Robert Greene’s words on the need to destroy an enemy completely to avoid future retaliation, but led me into a new understanding of winning at all costs and why unresolved conflicts resurface again and again.

This isn’t just a story of survival; it's a reflection on our world, on history, and on the patterns of hatred we keep repeating. If you’ve ever felt the weight of history, of hatred left unchecked, tune in – this one is about facing hard truths for a stronger future.

Join me as I explore the challenging wisdom behind Law 15 and its powerful lessons.

Power! Can 🫵 play the game?

The Auxiliary: Power! Can 🫵 play the game?

Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally 💔

Some lessons come with a cost. Today, I'm diving deep into a law that shook me to my core. Moving through every phase of resistance into acceptance, I found myself grappling with Robert Greene’s words on the need to destroy an enemy completely to avoid future retaliation, but led me into a new understanding of winning at all costs and why unresolved conflicts resurface again and again.

This isn’t just a story of survival; it's a reflection on our world, on history, and on the patterns of hatred we keep repeating. If you’ve ever felt the weight of history, of hatred left unchecked, tune in – this one is about facing hard truths for a stronger future.

Join me as I explore the challenging wisdom behind Law 15 and its powerful lessons.

📚 Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Khanemanhttps://www.kinkyknotscafe.com/kkcafeapprovedbooks

Welcome to the fascinating world of Kinky Knot's Cafe, Proactive is the Way, where we fortify your mind, body, and spirit with effective tools and resources. We are on an ever-evolving journey of self-growth and realization, seeking to build the life we always dreamed of in our radiant determination for a better future.

On this episode, we are revisiting a topic from Season 1, Episode 2 of the Designing Your Life series. We look back at our odyssey plans and marvel at the tremendous advancements made in our personal and professional life. As we hail our achievements, we realize our plans need to be even bigger! You'll hear about two phenomenal plans that culminated in consequential results, teaching us to stop playing small in this grand world.

Yet, why revert to designing life again, you might wonder? Our episode elaborates on the role of a designer in sharpening your life's blueprints and harnessing opportunities for growth. After successfully fulfilling two out of three Odyssey plans, we find ourselves ready to execute and share the third strategy.

This journey involves discovering the concept of prototyping in a designer's universe, a creative process that brings our biases, assumptions, and empathetic understandings to the forefront. An integral part of having the courage to be vulnerable, prototyping allows us to envision our future while living it, extending an exciting venture to understand a new career path and foster a supportive community.

We are continuing our discussions on how to be more radically open minded which is one of the principles highlighted in Ray Dalio’s book, Principles. In our efforts to get ahead of the barriers that prevent us from being open minded 2 weeks ago in S2:E7 we reviewed the barriers and honed in on the source or cause of those barriers, fear and the inability to be vulnerable.

Today, we are going to take this theoretical knowledge and look at some real world examples by learning about Gregory Styan and how changing his accent to rub elbows with a Russian Billionaire and the strict family values within Julie Coraccio’s life impacted their ability to build better relationships and live life fully and unashamed.

"I wish I had known."

Those words echo in my mind as I reflect on the journey that brought me here. For years, I was “The Bubbly Black Girl”, blissfully unaware of the harsh realities of the world around me. But life has a way of waking you up. Mine came through heartbreak, faith, and a painful realization in 2016 that left me questioning everything and everyone.

In this episode, I’m sharing my personal journey with Law 38: Think as You Like, but Behave Like Others.

Robert Greene warns us that standing out too boldly, too soon, can provoke resentment from those around us. It’s a hard truth I had to learn the long way. From a quiet message on a stranger's "POWER" T-shirt to the deeper revelations I had about society, survival, and strategy, this episode is one of my most personal yet.

If you’ve ever felt the urge to stand out, speak up, or go against the grain, this conversation is for you.

Listen now and learn the quiet art of survival and strategy.

Don’t miss this one. It’s raw, real, and revealing.

Mastering the Art of Timing – How I Secured My Dream Internship

"Never seem to be in a hurry."

Robert Greene's, Law 35: Master the Art of Timing, teaches patience, precision, and the power of acting at the right moment. As I read this chapter, it reminded me of a pivotal moment in my life when I leveraged this very principle to secure my first-ever coveted internship at Bloomingdale’s in NYC.

It wasn’t an easy road. Rejection, doubt, and an unsuccessful interview almost ended my chances, but one bold, perfectly timed move changed everything.

In this episode, I share the story of how a moment of courage and timing opened the door to an opportunity that reshaped my future.

Tune in to hear how mastering timing can transform your own path to success.

Listen now and unlock the power of patience and bold action!

Law 25: Recreate Yourself, but Keep It Real!

Today, I'm diving into Law 25: Recreate Yourself. A law that, while built on a powerful idea, left me questioning its authenticity.

Greene urges us to break free from societal roles, creating an identity that commands attention and keeps others captivated. He takes us back to the grand theatrics of Julius Caesar, a figure who mastered the art of image-building in 65 B.C., to illustrate how reinvention can amplify one’s power.

But is there a line between authenticity and performance?

Join me as I dissect the benefits and potential pitfalls of shaping our public image in today’s world. Let’s uncover how to own who we are, without losing what makes us real.

This is it folks. Our final month of the 2022 - 2023 season, Designing Your Life. We are wrapping up this season with a series on building a guiding team.

Designing your life is a team effort. You don’t have to do it alone. Some of us have a gift of building an effective network and as such have a multitude of resources at our fingertips. Then there are others who fall on the opposite end of the spectrum whereby they lack the knowledge or skills to build a supportive team or maybe find the whole process possesses no value, and is superficial and exhausting.

Why do we tend to value more people who are gifted or, as Angela clarifies, possesses an innate talent and can find success with ease versus people who have to work extremely hard and possess a level of grit, a combination of perseverance and passion? Why do we struggle to value those who find success through trial and error, or who lacked the support and had to pull themselves up by their bootstraps to find success?

Join me as I discuss this shortsighted value system and learn more about why talent alone is not enough to find success and what we all truly need.

The Six Thinking Hats

So often we begin an endeavor without much thought. When it comes time to make a decision we may find that we have not looked at the entire picture and assessed the situation comprehensively to come to a solid conclusion that would seek the most optimal outcome. How can we ensure that we do not miss a step in our thought process? In steps, the Six Thinking Hats.

Join Tiffany and I as we do a quick recap about the Six Thinking Hats. In addition, Tiffany will share how chaos ensued in her doctoral program with plagiarized papers, sub par team contributions, and how she believes the usage of this concept would have been effective on team projects within her program. Oh and how a $50,000 investment in finding someone equally yoked found its way into our conversations! Listen now! You don’t want to miss this! 🤣

This month we will review the Six Thinking Hats by Edward De Bono.

Edward is long recognized as the foremost international authority on conceptual thinking and on the teaching of thinking as a skill. We will learn how De Bono unscrambles the thinking process with his "six thinking hats”.

Edward highlights that our success in business and in life depends on how we think. However, thinking effectively can be complex as the main difficulty of thinking is confusion. We try to do too much at once. Emotions, information, logic, hope, and creativity all crowd in on us and we find ourselves overextended and overwhelmed.

The six thinking hats is a concept that allows a thinker to do one thing at a time by allowing the brain to maximize its sensitivity in different directions at different times.

It is parallel thinking that permits each person involved an opportunity to look at a situation from the same point of view.

Let’s review the Learning Checklist:

Intelligence vs Emotional Intelligence

Emotional Intelligence (EQ)

Emotional Intelligence (EQ)  Survey

When you think about what is required to make you successful what are some of the key things folks need to find success?

Most people would say education, experience, knowledge, and possessing a high IQ.

Well,  Patrick Lencioni author of The Five Dysfunctions of a Team; president of the Table Group said that not education, not experience, not knowledge or intellectual horsepower. None of these serve as an adequate predictor as to why one person succeeds and another doesn’t. There is something else going on that we tend to ignore and that is emotional intelligence.

Our topic this month will be all about letting our life speak. What should we consider to effectively listen to our voice of vocation?

A couple of weeks ago Tiffany and I shared how we tend to listen for the voice of our vocation and where we went wrong on our journey in creating a life fully designed by us. During our discussions one of the issues that we found occurred as a result of ineffectively listening for the voice of our vocation, we fell into the trap of taking on an identity that was not of our own.

Today, I will interview the author so to speak. We will dive into his book and let his words Grace us with his presence as we discuss Let Your Life Speak, Listening for the Voice of Vocation by Parker J. Palmer.

To prepare for our discussions we recommend that you purchase and READ or listen to:

Our topic this month will be all about letting our life speak. What should we consider to effectively listen to our voice of vocation?

In the second episode of Designing Your life we highlighted a couple of exercises on how to identify flow and a mind mapping exercise to narrow down activities that we tend to gravitate towards. Then we used this information to devise our 5 year odyssey plan.

This month we are going to hone in on getting better at these exercises by diving deeper. We want to make sure that in order to do these exercises effectively, we fully understand how to let our life speak and listen for the voice of our vocation. To help us, in a couple of weeks, we will reflect on a book by our author for this month, Parker Palmer, Let Your Life Speak,  listening for the voice of vocation.

Today, Tiffany and I will share our thoughts on the ways we listen to the voice of our vocation.

To prepare for our discussions we recommend that you purchase and READ or LISTEN to:

Let Your Life Speak, Listening for the Voice of Vocation by Parker Palmer

A few weeks ago we kicked off That Good Life. Tiffany and I discussed how we cultivate purpose and define meaning within life. It was interesting that while looking back on our life we both shared that having children or rather the efforts that we put into raising children turned out to be the most memorable and rewarding experience within our life. We also discussed that no matter how challenging life becomes it is in our best interest and that of the world’s to continue the course because what we have found is that we all serve as a key to unlock the secrets of the universe and it is by enduring our plight in life that we will be able to serve the greater good and put us on a path of continuous development and exponential growth.

Our topic this month, That Good Life. While discussing the Good Life we will be focusing on the Hungarian - American’s psychologist’s book Flow by MIHALY CSIKSZENTMIHALY (muhhay lee chik sent mee hai ee)

Last week we had a fire and was displaced. While we managed to land on our feet like a cat with a bazillion lives I couldn’t help but to reflect on that moment and how we truly have a good life. You see we are a family who tends to walk in faith and understands that when trials come our way tribulations are soon to follow. But it doesn’t last forever. We merely extended our hand and welcomed the guidance of the Universe to do what it does best, with the understanding of our intentions and heart’s greatest desire, lead us on that path to that Good Life.

We are continuing our conversations on Principles by reviewing You Owe You by Eric Thomas. During our last episode we laid down our laws of the land, our principles. We identified our top 5 non negotiables that we abide by in our efforts to manage our lives.

In this episode we will cover the top five principles that we found valuable in Eric’s book and how his principles set him up for success! 

Join us in a couple of weeks as we launch our next series,  Flow. This idea kept popping up in the books we read and of course garnered my curiosity. I pondered, What does it mean to be in a Flow state? How do we position ourselves to be more productive and excel in this state.

“Without the ability to understand ourselves, we inevitably become lost.”

During our last episode Conspiracy theories and paranormal encounters were at the top of our discussions as Tiff and I shared how the vices we thought we created in good defense, to protect ourselves, actually almost ruined our lives. When Tiffany realized that she was damaging relationships with people who thought highly of her and I realized that I kept giving my power away because of other people’s fears, when we both gained a sense of awareness it was only then we were able to  intervene and take corrective action.

But, how did we do that? How did we become so aware to correct the bad habits we were creating? Unbeknownst to us we were leveraging techniques that Brianna Wiest discussed within her book, The Mountain is you. Today we are going to share with you how you can use some of the techniques she shared to help you get ahead of your destructive behaviors and sabotage them before you sabotage yourself.

“To confront patterns of self-sabotage, we need to change the way we think. We have to become aware of our false beliefs and shift into a mindset that actually gets us to where we want to go.”

During our last couple of episodes we focused on habits, the good and the bad, and  steps we could take to create more good habits and eliminate the bad ones. As we were learning about these habits we continually kept reverting back to the bad ones. It was at this point a thought came to mind that made me want to better understand the why behind our bad habits. Why do we create them? And how do we get ahead to ensure that we don’t permit them to surface, sabotaging our own efforts?

During this series we will learn about our behaviors and why do we develop behaviors that hinder our growth and the growth of others. In the book, The Mountain is You, Brianna Wiest will help us to better understand the WHY behind our actions so that we can get ahead of ourselves and prevent us from developing self sabotaging behaviors.

“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” ~ Carl Jung

Addictions, fixations, tendencies, weaknesses, enslavement, customs, no matter what you call it, the good and the bad, we all got’em.

Do you know what your habits are? Most of us don’t really identify the behaviors we have as a habit. Typically these behaviors that we develop start off small, shaping and molding itself in obscurity, until one day we find that it has grown into something that is either quite unmanageable and burdensome or it could be one that you have developed which provides you an infinite amount of success.

We will discuss the power of the mind and its impact on creating good habits and deconstructing the bad ones as we review Atomic Habits by James Clear. To prepare for our discussions get a head start on the readings by purchasing the book here:

Join us in 2 weeks as we dive deeper into our topic by reviewing our featured book Atomic Habits by James Clear.

“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” ~ Carl Jung

“Men are born soft and supple; dead, they are stiff and hard. Plants are born tender and pliant; dead, they are brittle and dry. Thus whoever is stiff and inflexible is a disciple of death. Whoever is soft and yielding is a disciple of life. The hard and stiff will be broken. The soft and supple will prevail.” ~ LAO TZU

Last week we aired out our dirty laundry and shared a piece of our lives with you. We discussed ways in which we managed to tackle self improvement and where we faltered along the way. As with most people we navigated blindly and while we have both found success we wish we had a guide like James Clear to lead us there more effectively. Lucky for you our goal is to help you to take a more proactive approach in managing your life. We hope that you will find value in our discussions today and take with you some golden nuggets to help you along the way to creating and finding success within your life.

This is it folks. Our final month of the 2022 - 2023 season, Designing Your Life. We are wrapping up this season with a series on building a guiding team.

Designing your life is a team effort. You don’t have to do it alone. Some of us have a gift of building an effective network and as such have a multitude of resources at our fingertips. Then there are others who fall on the opposite end of the spectrum whereby they lack the knowledge or skills to build a supportive team or maybe find the whole process possesses no value, and is superficial and exhausting.

For those who fall on the opposite end of the spectrum, this series is for you!

To prepare for our discussions we recommend that you purchase and READ or listen to:

Technical Difficulties! Thank You for Patience!

This month we will be all in our feelings and those of others as we discuss Emotional Intelligence.

Let’s review the Learning Checklist:

Intelligence vs Emotional Intelligence

Emotional Intelligence (EQ)

Emotional Intelligence (EQ)  Survey

When you think about what is required to make you successful what are some of the key things folks need to find success?

Most people would say education, experience, knowledge, and possessing a high IQ.

Well,  Patrick Lencioni author of The Five Dysfunctions of a Team; president of the Table Group said that not education, not experience, not knowledge or intellectual horsepower. None of these serve as an adequate predictor as to why one person succeeds and another doesn’t. There is something else going on that we tend to ignore and that is emotional intelligence.

To prepare for our discussions we recommend that you purchase and READ or listen to:

Emotional Intelligence 2.0

Our topic this month will be all about letting our life speak. What should we consider to effectively listen to our voice of vocation?

A couple of weeks ago Tiffany and I shared how we tend to listen for the voice of our vocation and where we went wrong on our journey in creating a life fully designed by us. During our discussions one of the issues that we found occurred as a result of ineffectively listening for the voice of our vocation, we fell into the trap of taking on an identity that was not of our own.

Today, I will interview the author so to speak. We will dive into his book and let his words Grace us with his presence as we discuss Let Your Life Speak, Listening for the Voice of Vocation by Parker J. Palmer.

To prepare for our discussions we recommend that you purchase and READ or listen to:

Let Your Life Speak, Listening for the Voice of Vocation

You can purchase this book on KK Cafe’s APPROVED at  https://www.kinkyknotscafe.com/kkcafeapproved

Join us in 2 weeks as we prepare for our next series on Emotional Intelligence.

Make sure to pick up a copy of our featured book Emotional Intelligence 2.0, by Travis Bradberry. This is going to be enlightening beyond measure. Even the Dali Lama shared how this book does a phenomenal job of succinctly explaining how we can deal with emotions creatively and employ our intelligence in a beneficial way.

We are continuing our conversations on Principles by reviewing You Owe You by Eric Thomas. During our last episode we laid down our laws of the land, our principles. We identified our top 5 non negotiables that we abide by in our efforts to manage our lives.

In this episode we will cover the top five principles that we found valuable in Eric’s book and how his principles set him up for success!

Join us in a couple of weeks as we launch our next series,  Flow. This idea kept popping up in the books we read and of course garnered my curiosity. I pondered, What does it mean to be in a Flow state? How do we position ourselves to be more productive and excel in this state.

To prepare for our discussions we recommend that you purchase and READ or listen to:

Flow by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
