GEMS DROPPED
“ When we feel connected with the truth of who we are and how we actually feel, and then we get to know what we actually think and what our imaginations can bring us to, we get to dream forward.” - Monique R. Shields
“Corporate spaces are not designed for anybody to be their full authentic selves. You have to decide what pieces of you are safe here, what pieces of you are advantageous to share here. You have to kind of design yourself a certain way. It's just what it is.” - Monique R. Shields
“Instead of shaming ourselves for decisions we have made or are about to make, remember a lot of these decisions are rooted in survival. And you need to do what you need to do in that moment or in this moment to put your survival first. Right.

“If you're still feeling on the fence about things, I think it's good to listen to that survival instinct in you, that gut check and remember that just because something's high ticket doesn't mean it's going to be valuable. You must vet the business and make sure it's what's really going to help you to move the needle in your business. Emphasis on your.”- Nicaila Matthews Okome
“A lot of us actually need to start to dismantle some of the identities we've taken on unknowingly.” - Nicaila Matthews Okome
“We’re walking around with a lot of invisible I ams and I'm nots and it's about doing the work to make those things a lot more visible to you so that you can see the one's holding you back or the one's keeping you stuck.” -Monique R. Shields
“Whatever it is that you're facing down next, whatever challenge it is that you're trying to take on or figure out, you don't need more. You're not deficient in anything. There's no deficit within you. You don't need to take on anything new. Tack on anything new. Build yourself up more. Usually you need to release, so focus on what you need to let go and let that be your energy. Let yourself be released.” -Monique R. Shields
