B.A.D. Queens of the Roundtable

Imposter syndrome is about mindset; where is your mind right now that you have falling victim to this? A changed mindset is vital especially for a child of God, of faith. For years, you have been watching other people in your industry and you have desired to be just like them making their lives an idol for your own life. The bible tells us not to covet what others have, yet, you've done it. YOU ARE NOT AN IMPOSTER. Let's pull it together.

If you're chasing bags to get the money you're missing the point of entrepreneurship. Having a product to sell is different than selling a product of need. You must solve a problem not just sell a product. Let's talk about it.

You're probably asking why this event planner and vendor series was necessary as a business and lifestyle counselor. Because, no matter what field you're in, you must create your own platforms for people to see who you are and how you work. The importance is knowing you're finding the solution for the poeple you're serving. Let's talk about it.

This segment ties into my event where I haveSWAG vendors. Being a vendor who participates without having to show up is just as key as being in person. I share some pointers to make sure you, as a vendor, are ready to represent your business as wewell as showing up for the host. Let's talk about it!

This second episode of the Being an Event Planner: How to Be a Vendor series taps into inventory. You have to look at what you need to bring to an event, how much, and why. This is an extension of the first in this series where you need to know you're at the right events for your business. LEt's talk about it!

This first episode on being an event planner and vendor starts with being a vendor. The importance of this as an entrepreneur is vital because you have to know who you are and where you are in planning events that cater to your business. Tap in and share your thoughts!

Day 5 of reading the Epistle according to James, we are talking about patience. This is another chapter you're probably wondering how verses 1- 19 talk about patience. In verses 7 and 8, the word tells us to be patient for Jesus' second coming. Then the other verses tell us what to do to ENHANCE that PATIENCE while waiting; how to treat and care for others. The first half of the chapter, I believe, helps those of us who are 24/7 entrepreneurs. James tells us that when we wrong others, live and strive for earthly pleasures, and condemn others, we will be judged and chastised by the LORD. As BAD-preneurs, we must decide what we want at the end of our time here on earth and HOW we will live and love to obtain it.

Day 4 of reading the Epistle according to James, where we are talking about humility. I want to add understanding. The entire chapter gives you a cause-and-effect of walking according to the flesh: when you should die to the flesh daily and walk in humility. Let's talk about it.

Day 3 of reading the Epistle according to James, and we're looking at wisdom. At first thought, you would think we need to talk about taming the tongue. In my life, that's what we've always talked about in church when referencing chapter 3 of James: holding your tongue. Yet, as I reread the chapter, I completely understand why wisdom is the key word here. Let's talk about it.

Day 2 of reading the Epistle according to James, and we're talking about integrity. This entire chapter is a "whoa, Nelly" moment. When the Bible tells us to study to show thyself approved, this is the reason: understanding the entire word of God for your life. When you read chapter two, you start with an analogy about a rich man and a poor man coming into your place/church. You sit the beautiful rich man in front and the poor, homely man in back. Let's talk about it!

This week, I'm reading through the Epistle according to James and applying it. Each day will be one chapter. Today the word that was focused on was perseverance. I understand the work I need to put in, but I also understand patience in trying times. What does today look like for you? How have you persevered in these times for the assignment God has you on?

This episode talks about being the librarian of your own books, as well as taking note of your "fruit" from the revenue books of your business. If you were told by God to write the book(s), you're missing your spiritual elevation by not doing so. The knowledge and experiences you need to share with others are in your books! The podcast did not finish the way I intended; it was Holy Ghost-led, and I am fully satisfied with that.

I'm so excited to use what I know to do to create what I want to have, but it came at a cost. No, you won't hear about that here; you will hear about the support, how I got here to this exciting day, and how things are going moving forward. God is in this, and I'm grateful!

This episode can be summed up by the title, yet I need you to understand why some things are worth repeating. God's call on your life is deeper than Sunday service. Grasp that knowledge here!

In this episode, I'll be giving you five points on how to filter out the voices; determining which voice is the voice of God and the one of the enemy. Take the time to apply these points to your business, ministry, and life.

God will show us people by what we say, what we buy for them, and what we do. You could be trying so hard to do things for people because you genuinely love them and want what's best for them. God's message today is about knowing who YOU are by WHO HE IS!

We face challenges every day. Yet, there are some challenges we feel as though we must walk through the fire. Let me share this with you: WALK!

Coming back stronger than ever after a rough 2025. Not using my voice to help build others in their spaces was foreign to me. Videos are great, but sometimes you need a voice without the fluff! Welcome to the comeback!

Today, I'm touching on getting over self-doubt and setting boundaries for your life and business. How I give you these points is going to be harsh and a tough pill to swallow, but it is very vital for your next steps in life. Setting boundaries is essential to self-care, yet it doesn't work if you don't accept who you are. AND, accepting who you are doesn't mean always having to EXPLAIN IT.

You've been asked many times who is your target market, but when you look at where you are on social media, and who is intrigued by you at networking events, ask yourself who, exactly, are you targeting? Listen in today to find out how you are and why! Visit www.baduniversity.com for the journals mentioned here!

Sometimes you must face the facts about the people, places and things in your life, that have come to TEACH YOU. They may be painful facts, but nonetheless, learn from them.

This segment discusses people disliking my smoking cigars. Realize that I am Apostle Dana and B.A.D. Queen Dana. I'm asking God what is the problem with this besides the norm. They don't want to see me blessed while smoking. God continues to bless me, they don't know why and don't like it.

Today, I talk about facing personal issues of life in order to grow in your business. Take a moment, while I share a personal humbling issue, causing me to open my eyes and lean on God more. Understand when you allow God to lead, you will KNOW not to lean on your own understanding!

Your faith starts with the size of a mustard seed, BUT IT SHOULD GROW. Quality vs quantity. It's not about how much something costs, but value they give you in what is being shared Grab yours now! .

You must prepare for the worst to know how to go through the best. I give you five points on why and how to do this. One thing I would like for you to remember is that the Bible says tomorrow is not promised. Therefore, live today like it is but plan as if you are blessed with another day. This is how you prepare for the worst to get through, go to, and continuously see the best. This week's strategy sessions are on the 8th and 10th. You can signe up here

This segment has been a long time coming with many challenges (technical, spiritual, etc) My interview with Pastor Ronald Cromuel is ABOVE AND BEYOND amazing! From the conversations to the impartations, I'm grateful to God for it all. Ronald "The Preacherman" Cromuel started in ministry when he was 17 years old and has been smoking Cigars now for about 11 years. Father God in the name of Jesus I thank you for this time of impartation and camaraderie—for the release of understanding and your word! Thank you, Lord, for using Pastor Ronald in this segment and sharing with me what I should keep doing for your people. Please continue to bless and encourage him as he goes forth in the things you have for him and his life, ministry, and family in Jesus' name Amen.

In this short message, I want to talk cigar groups and what you look for. My desire for my group, I'm building, is far more than smoking cigars.

We all started in business to become self-sustaining and call the shots in our lives. Some of us found ourselves in a rut. Why? We were passionate about our businesses and entrepreneurial journeys, but then it got to be building businesses to pay bills. We lost our passion. What is our passionate purpose and why are we running from it?

Let's talk about who you are as an entrepreneur. Let's discuss, briefly, how you show up for you!
