  • When you do the most but expect the least

    I just listened to this episode. And wow. I wasn’t fully aware of how incongruent this process of consistently trying to shrink or be “low maintenance” is with my actual contributions in the world. It’s not only not self loving it is actually illogical. Thank you for the gift of your minds— you and your client— and sharing this with all of us. I had to weep upon listening.

  • Grateful

    Hey now—I stay living my life, learning the things, evolving, activating the tools. And then, I listen to Monique’s podcast and find myself facing a deeper thing. I respond out loud like she’s in front of my face. I pause and laugh because “Who told this woman to show up at my house and tell me the truth before 9am EST?!” But everytime, I am better for it. I am grateful for you, Monique—keep going. At exactly your own pace. I hope y’all take a listen ❤️

  • A gift!

    I just listened to “What to do when your vision is changing” and got so much out of it. Monique’s wisdom is a breath of fresh air. As a black woman in leadership and highly ambitious, this episode and others speak to me deeply. Thank you Monique! Keep doing what you’re doing.

Q: Can you tell us a little bit about what's going on with that today?
Tamyra discusses her decisions to honor her family and create new traditions with her son in a context that differs from her own upbringing.

46 | Balancing Success and Personal Legacy with Former Blavity.org ED Tamyra Gordon
Q: How do you define legacy actually for yourself?
Tamyra articulates that legacy, for her, is about what she wants to be remembered for at her funeral — focusing on personal impact rather than just professional achievements. It's about whether the people left behind can express that she loved them, cared about her family, and made life better for those around her.
