441 | Homecoming: Slowing Down to Reconnect with Roots, Family, and Self | Pep Talk Wednesdays

from Affirmations for Black Girls · host Tyra The Creative

In this week’s Pep Talk Wednesday, Tyra gets honest about what it meant to go back home for the first time in a long time — not for a quick visit, but for an extended stay that her spirit didn’t even know it was craving.This episode explores the quiet magic of slowing down, stepping away from the noise, and letting your roots remind you who you are. From porch conversations and grocery store rides with her momma to the familiar sound of cicadas and family showing up unannounced (like always!), Tyra reflects on how going home helped her breathe again, reconnect with her identity, and remember the grounded version of herself she hadn’t visited in a while.Pep Talk Challenge: Do one thing this week that reconnects you with your roots.Community Connection LinksSign up for the Community Newsletter!: www.tyrathecreative.com/podcastJoin the AFBG Book Club: https://tyrathecreative.myflodesk.com/xkz6bzvn29 Shop the AFBG Merch!: http://tyrathecreative.com/merchLetters From Listeners Form: https://forms.gle/yqwdsBuRBjXQm9Xw7Subscriber Survey: https://forms.gle/m4AD2YaYbGhd8gEv6ResourcesThe Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life by Mark MansonShop Tyra’s Favorites: https://www.amazon.com/shop/tyrathecreativeHere’s a free trial of ClassPass (with 20 bonus credits!): https://shop.tyrathecreative.com/classpass Listen to Lofi Beats for Deep Focus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfBhamgkCww&t=2222sWanna give therapy a try?
