502 | God Won't Allow Me to Settle For Less

from Affirmations for Black Girls · host Tyra The Creative

Have you ever tried to make something work so badly… only for it to fall apart anyway?In this episode, Tyra talks about the uncomfortable but necessary truth: sometimes the reason it didn’t work out is because God wouldn’t let you settle.Whether it’s relationships that almost made it, opportunities that looked good on paper, friendships that slowly faded, or spaces that felt “good enough” but not aligned — this conversation is about divine disruption. The closed doors. The redirection. The feeling of “why is this so hard?” When you’re just trying to make something stick.This week’s Affirmation is: “God, raise my standards to match Your promises.”Tyra unpacks:The difference between contentment and settlingTrusting redirection, even when it bruises your egoLetting go of “almost” in order to receive alignmentIf you’ve been frustrated because nothing mediocre seems to last in your life… maybe that’s the point.This episode is your reminder that not everything that leaves is a loss. Sometimes it’s protection. Sometimes it’s preparation. And sometimes… it’s proof that you’re called to more.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/m4AD2YaYbGhd8gEv6ResourcesShop 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=2222s Wanna give therapy a try?
