Sober

“Once you realize your efforts to keep others hydrated means you will never sip first, you will learn to stay focused on quenching your own thirst.” Angela Shannon Ponder

Disclaimer: This blog post is not in reference to any alcohol dependency, smoking addiction, or substance abuse. This post is about a recovering mindset as it relates to an addiction to people pleasing. Knowledge without action is NOT powerful, but it has potential. Action taken to advance and apply that knowledge is called execution and within THAT lies power. Now let’s go! 

Greetings Readers!

Happy New Year! I trust each of you ushered in 2024 in a safe and joyful way, and to kick off the start of the new year, I think it is the perfect time to discuss sobering up. So, what exactly do I mean by that? Well, being sober means that you are free from intoxicating influences; to make or become more serious, sensible, and solemn. Heavy emphasis on sensible. Intoxicating influences huh? For most people, that would include the usual suspects: drugs, alcohol, tobacco, sugar or other illicit or addictive substances. Those things that can gain control of you by making you feel stimulated, excited or even euphoric. However, I want to address a more unlikely addiction. One that I have dealt with personally for decades. One that still has many others in a chokehold, unknowingly, and that addiction is “people pleasing”. A moment of transparency for me is acknowledging that I too was once a people pleaser, as of very recent, actually. I had done it for so long that I didn’t realize I had become addicted to it. I have always been that person that everyone could depend on; always very accommodating. It made me feel good, so I made sure I continued to be that person that would always come through. I wanted to always be a blessing. I intentionally used my gifts and my abilities to help enhance the lives of others, but what I found was that the sentiment was rarely reciprocated. In hindsight, I now know that reciprocation is a necessity and is a more than reasonable expectation. Reciprocity is essentially “The Golden Rule” activated and it is intended for mutual benefit. It is a concept that we learned when we first started school, but somewhere along life’s journey, the selfish and self-absorbed conveniently forgot to abide by it. Somehow, they feel a few of the rules no longer apply to them. 

A moment of truth, I was bullied throughout middle school, junior high (I guess I’m telling my age here) and part of high school by the same group of people. I understand now that those girls were miserable, broken and evil on the inside, but I grew to think that it was something that I did wrong to cause them to treat me in such a despicable way. So, I developed a coping mechanism that caused me to go out of my way to prove to others that I was a good person. I overextended myself and made sure I was available, even when I was exhausted and spent. I feared rejection and anyone who sensed it took full advantage of my kind-hearted ways, but I was oblivious. I started making excuses for how badly people treated me. Looking at their circumstances and giving them more compassion than they deserved. Giving people all access to me, while they offered limited access to themselves. In the beginning, I would shower people with my time, my talent and my treasure, because I wanted to make them feel special. However, because I had given them all access to my time and my person, they immediately came to expect this from me. When you don’t know the history of a person… who they are, where they’ve been, what they’ve done, what they’ve been through or who they have been connected to, you don’t have clear sight of the damage that has taken place before you entered the equation. Not everyone has good intentions for you, and many come with an agenda and plans to use you, if they determine you will provide them with what they need to achieve their goals. So, while I was always happy to help, they were always happy to receive more. I had officially become a people pleaser. 

There is a popular phrase that has been around for years that is often used when it comes to dealing with people that states, “Hurt people, hurt people.” Well, I like to say, “Broken people, break people.” Many will never tell their story, because they see it as a weakness and are afraid that others will use it against them, but trust everyone has one. It is impossible to take the fragments of someone else’s broken life that you did not destroy and put them back together for them. That burden is not your responsibility, it is theirs, and it is a compromise you shouldn’t be willing to make. Your wellbeing should be your priority, and as a part of the process, so should well set boundaries. Although they can’t put the pieces of their shattered life back together and expect it to look like it did before, they can still retrieve the scraps and create something new and beautiful, but again, it’s up to them. Don’t become the person they use to help them repair their life, because if you do, you run the risk of them leaving you just as damaged. I had to learn that “No.” is a complete sentence and a healthy response, and you should do the same. Once I decided I was done with compromising my own happiness for someone else’s when their only intent was to manipulate me, I began to move different… strategically if you will. Now to protect myself, I intentionally distance myself from people and situations that trouble me, cause me trauma on any level, or that do not serve my greater good. I am now in a peaceful place, and I love it here. 

Last thoughts:

• If someone is committed to misunderstanding you, let them. Don’t waste your time or your energy trying to explain yourself or trying to make others comfortable in a situation you did not create. Some people tend to stir up drama, discord and confusion simply because they are miserable. 

• Pay attention to attempts to manipulate you the FIRST time. Stop giving people the benefit of the doubt and the opportunity to continue to control you. You saw what they did and you heard exactly what they said. Don’t let it confuse you and have you out here questioning your own worth. Don’t let it go over your head.

• Life can be sobering. Be always in pursuit of a better YOU. When you focus on those things, you won’t have the capacity to give attention to what others have going on. 

• Don’t blur the lines when it comes to your relationships. Know where people stand in your life and what value they bring to it. If they don’t bring any value, why are you there and what purpose are they serving?

• Remember that reciprocity and respect are requirements in EVERY relationship, so if that is not your experience or your expectation, then it is possible that you too are a people pleaser. Here is help with that addiction.

Special thanks to the absolutely gorgeous Jasmine Murphy, affectionately known as “Jazzy” for bringing that HEAT to this concept! She always does an amazing job! Until next time… Sober Up!

Envy

“Envy isn’t always about beauty, power, or wealth… people can envy you because you love yourself.” ~Angela Shannon Ponder


Greetings Readers!


I have a question. How dare you?


How dare you be someone worth admiring? How dare you be intelligent? How dare you be gifted? How dare you have the ability to effectively communicate? How dare you have less than me, yet still make me feel as though I don’t have enough? How dare you have strengths that make me feel as though you have exposed my weaknesses? How dare you not acknowledge and celebrate me, despite my blatant refusal to celebrate you? How dare you not dumb yourself down in my presence so I can feel important? How dare you be so secure in the knowledge of who you are? How dare you? Now, let’s talk about Envy.


You know, I have never understood exactly how envy works. Like how someone could have more than you do financially and a higher status in society, yet still envy you. It took what feels like a lifetime of learning before I realized that it isn’t even about the money, the material possessions or status, but it’s about you. Your ability to radiate a light no one can dim. Your ability to create magic from a simple thought. Your ability to excel seemingly effortlessly. Your ability to intimidate the insecurities in others. Your ability to drive people to dislike you just for being you, or could it be that favor and anointing that they see all over you? Understand this… people who are consumed by their own desperate need for validation will be aggravated by your confidence. They will throw not so subtle shade, they will find reasons to nitpick, they will be passive aggressive, they will laugh at your expense, and they will go low whenever they “sense” you are getting the upper hand, because they feel it is their duty to humble you. How dare you not feel the need to be validated, when they see you as flawed and wonder why you don’t seem to view yourself the same? They watch you relentlessly, because they can’t help themselves, but are completely unaware that you see them.

Let’s be honest, envy is nothing more than intense feelings of disappointment redirected and aimed at someone else. That is called displaced dissatisfaction. It is projection. Envy comes in all forms, from success, to physical appearance, to popularity, to intellect and competence, to opportunities, to God-given gifts and the list is truly endless. It all starts with the mind games they play on themselves when they look at others as either competition or a come up. They start to watch and compare, and we all know that comparison is the thief of joy, right? They are so caught up and fixated on others, they refuse to deal with the fact that their misery is the direct result of not dealing with their unaddressed childhood trauma. It has nothing to do with anyone else. If someone else’s blessings and gifts make you feel some type of way, go seek some help.


Social media doesn’t make things any easier. In fact, it only intensifies those feelings of inadequacy and diminishing self-worth, especially if all they do is sit around watching the pages of people they actually admire, trying to find the imperfections in their lives and in their relationships. Looking for ways to critique and criticize and throw more shade than a cloudy day, because after all, it’s got to be fake anyway. No one is THAT happy. Searching for traces in a post that prove you feel the same way about them as they feel about you, because they desperately need to know that their bad behavior is justified. Feeling targeted by social media posts and memes, because they read them through the lens of a perpetual victim. Hanging out in someone’s stories but never liking a post on their page, as if they’re invisible? We all know that no one watches you harder than someone who cannot stand you, but still wants to know what you are up to. How about the ones who read your posts and never acknowledge them online but will bring them up the very next time they see or talk to you. People who refuse to show public support for you, do so because they secretly don’t like you or have been privately discussing you. Engage your spiritual discernment and don’t waste another drop of energy on people who do not add value to your life.

Do you ever wonder why some people act peculiar towards you, especially around others? Why they seem to avoid you, never speaking first or acknowledging that you are even present at all? When you know you have done nothing wrong, yet they treat you like you stole their inheritance, don’t doubt that what you are seeing is envy. You see envy has nothing to do with money, power, title, education, social status, or influence. Envy at its very core, is knowing you possess something they do not feel you are worthy of having, regardless of what it may be. It’s not what you do, it’s the fact that it’s YOU. Maybe people love on you publicly, maybe you can work a room gliding through with ease, maybe, just maybe you are a creative beast while they struggle to come up with the first idea. Sometimes people will look down on you to make you feel like they do. Envy will smolder below the surface for so long that folks will forget WHY they don’t like you, but they will never forget that it’s true. Bless their hearts.


Let’s wrap this… it’s always been said that “imitation is the sincerest form of flattery”, but I think it’s just a lack of ambition borrowing from another’s genius without permission. The envious don’t know any different, so all they know to do is attempt to duplicate the vision. It’s quite irritating but remember, they can always copy, but the paste will never equal. They could never create a sequel. It will never be as profound or moving trying to do what you are successfully doing. It will never be as authentic as the original, so when you find yourself surrounded by a sea of envy, accept that there is something special about your potential.

It was beautiful day to shoot this concept, right at the golden hour. We are grateful that the beautiful, Asia Moore was present to represent beauty, grace, and humility in the most amazing way. She is one of our FAVS and someone who has absolutely been on the receiving end of envious behavior, but still she thrives! We hope you enjoy this post entitled, “Envy” and all of the images from that concept. Thank you for your indulgence.

Elevation

 “Sometimes the only way to transform from ordinary to extraordinary is during periods of isolation. Even the caterpillar knows the way to experience elevation.” ~Angela Shannon Ponder

Greetings Readers!

Excuse me while I take a moment to Reflect.

When I look back over my life, I recognize that I have learned many critical lessons… some good and some not so much, especially over the last decade or so. I’ve learned a lot about myself, what I like and what I don’t like, what brings me peace and what disturbs my spirit. I’ve also learned a lot about people. How they can distract you and throw you off course and how they can drain your energy stores if you let them. Each new year brings me greater understanding of my purpose and reveals to me a clearer path to get there. However, just when I think I am making a little bit of progress, here come the distractions again. Now don’t get me wrong, I do realize they have purpose as well, but I had to learn to balance my life and put all things that did not add value in their proper places. To do that it required me to have an elevation kind of mindset.


My peace is Resolute.

Let me tell you a little bit about peace. Peace is comforting. It’s calming. When the world is full of noise and gloom, peace is like a soothing sound in a silent room. Peace is preserving and once you get a taste of it, you will refuse to allow anyone in your life that threatens to disturb it. Yet there is one important aspect about peace that we should understand… not everyone knows how to access it for themselves. There are those who will even try to engage with a catalyst thinking they can help them crack the code. Truth be told, there are some really unhappy people in this world who are struggling with the absence of discipline, a lack of ambition, low self-esteem, fear and the inability to improve their own quality of life through skill, intellect or creativity. These same people will, unbeknownst to you, make YOU the object of their misery, simply because they can see the joy you are experiencing in your life and they don't know how to tap into it. NEVER let them draw you into their circus or make you feel bad about being happy. You are neither the source or the solution for their issues, so leave them with the freedom and opportunity to figure things out on their own. Be at peace with placing distance between you. Be okay with walking away. Their internal battle is not your concern. One thing I know for certain… at this stage in MY life, I refuse to pacify anyone else’s paranoia or insecurities to provide them with a plethora of peace.

My energy is a Resource.

Elevation sometimes requires you to go into isolation. It is occasionally necessary for you to step away so you can heal from experiences that may have left you bruised, reflect on possibilities, and discover new and exciting opportunities. It calls for you to step aside so you can prioritize you: your peace, your purpose and your passions. You are deserving, especially when you assess just how many demands you have on your time. Personally speaking, I am intentionally impactful in all of my efforts, so if I am called to fall back, my energy is missed. However, instead of me redirecting my energy to my own hopes and dreams in that moment, I tend to give it away, sometimes to people who are not even worthy of it. So many people need you, they lean on you for advice and guidance, your creative mind, your structure, your resources… you know, your time, talent and treasure. Yet with all that you have going on, sometimes you neglect a major part of your life that needs your attention in order for you to advance to your next level. Do you want to know what that is? YOUR GOALS. You are distracted daily, and going into solitude every now and then will help you recalibrate and silence the noise that continues to grab your attention. The noise that is diverting you from doing what you need to do for yourself, to instead do what you feel you have to do for others. So how can you elevate if you rarely devote the time? Let’s go deeper.

Let your decision be Resounding.

Be intentional. Elevation requires separation. It’s not personal, it’s purposeful. In other words, make time for yourself. Today… give yourself grace for the unhealthy patterns and decisions that you have made in life that disturbed your peace or prevented your progress. Going forward, honor order in your life and remove yourself from the company of anyone who creates disruption. Make it a point to not retain toxic ties. For your own well-being, they must be severed as soon as they are identified. Get to a place where you no longer waste energy where reciprocation is not respected. Remember that empty vessels in need of a refill are in search of someone like you for a fill up… never pour from an empty cup. They are not entitled to your abundance, so if you are not consciously and selectively supplying from an overflow, tell them, “NO.” Be authentic and true, because authenticity produces confidence, empowerment and alignment. Unauthentic people do not understand that assignment. Stop feeling guilty for your ambitions. You don’t owe anyone else anything and guilt will only give way to opportunists who come with an agenda… and the gag is, their intentions will never benefit YOU. Finally, stop waiting around for a handclap of praise. Learn to succeed without being affirmed and validated, clap for yourself when you need to be celebrated, and take time away to prepare to be elevated. You owe it to yourself.

We are so grateful that the gorgeous Tomecka Patterson joined us for this concept! Tomecka has a uniquely powerful presence about her that is so emerging that she just seems to jump off the page, yet in a quiet and peaceful way if that makes sense. She is like that “soothing sound in a silent room” and we absolutely LOVE working with her! We hope these words and images from our concept entitled, “Elevation” resonates. Until next time, enjoy!

Conscious Soul

“Now keep in mind that I’m an artist, and I’m sensitive about my shit!” ~Erykah Badu


Greetings Readers!

Good vibes and peace to the soul tribe! It’s been a while. So I decided to take a different approach with this blog post, and make it a poetry piece that I wrote, to change up my style. For this concept, we got the chance to work with the GORGEOUS Tomecka once again... we hope you enjoy it!

You can feel it when you’re in the presence

of a woman with powerful energy.

She is undeniable.

She’s captivating, almost intimidating,

yet draws you in for more…

That’s what they call allure.

Her confidence can overwhelm you,

Like a rushing river can consume you right?

Her mindset, like food for thought,

satisfies the insatiable appetite.

She’s the kind of energy that can’t be diminished.

Magnetic, when she walks into a room,

she owns everything in it.

Intelligent, commanding, capable, aligned,

She’s not just beautiful on the outside,

that’s aesthetics,

But she’s got a beautiful mind.

She is compassionate with a deep understanding

of the human condition.

She advocates for those in need;

with intention, she makes it her mission.

A bold beauty wrapped in mahogany dipped skin,

She’s an enigma.

She is zen and she holds within,

Divine knowledge and wisdom.

She uses it to nurture and raise powerful children.

She is mother in the earth,

Her hand rocks the cradle of the universe.

She invests time and energy into her legacy,

and she does it with such vibrancy.

Her aura is contagious, absolutely outrageous.

You can’t absorb it all at once,

You have to take her vibe in stages.

She’s amazing and she’ll keep you in a daze;

If you breathe too deep, you’ll catch a contact from the haze.

There’s just something about her that intrigues you.

She stays on your mind when she leaves you,

and it grieves you.

Take your time and let it process my dear,

because this one here,

She’s from beyond the stratosphere!

She is drenched in self-love, self-expression,

and self-admiration.

She is pure elation and sweet manifestation.

Just like cosmos and constellations,

She’s deep like thoughtful conversation.

She is class and sophistication.

She is walking validation.

Just so unapologetic,

She’s got that flow, it’s so poetic.

She is truly energetic,

and it’s ALL GOOD, copacetic.

Brighter than the stars on the darkest night;

Ambitious and creative, she’s a prototype,

She has insight, so she could never lose in life.

Her experience is either a blessing or a lesson,

Crafted in the Creator’s image, she gives reverence,

Pure essence.

She is effortless and uncompromising,

Realizing that with or without she is whole,

a complete and conscious soul.

The Ugly Location Challenge

Greetings Readers!

Welcome to the 2nd Annual Photographers’ Collab Project! The Photographers' Collab is a network of local photographers and videographers who are looking to connect and collaborate with other creatives in the Middle Tennessee area. This year our project was "The Ugly Location Challenge". The idea of this concept was to find one of the most unattractive, grimiest of places to shoot and still achieve a glamorous, high fashion image. The weather was absolutely perfect and made for a great day of shooting from on top of the rooftop and inside the garage. 

Each creative was asked to submit their favorite images of the day for each model to be on display in this wrap up blog post. Please check out everyone's skills below and follow them on social media! What will be our project idea for 2022? Stay tuned...

Submerged

 “Submerged deep within my soul lies the journey of a thousand centuries.”  ~ Angela Shannon Ponder

Greetings Readers!

I've always been a lover of simple things... cumulus clouds, full moons, warm and windy days, a cool morning breeze, waterfalls, the sunrise and how it glistens so majestically on the calming waters, and an amazing sunset. I truly could go on and on, but these are just a few of the things that lead me to my most zenfully sweet experiences. Moments that create for me serene peace and restoration. Simple indulgences that allow me to just submerge my mind and soul into a divine overflow of vibrating, feel good energy. Life is beautiful, not perfect, but beautiful. Especially if you take into account that life is more than what happens to you, and more of how you respond to what happens. Life definitely has a way of throwing your whole vibe off balance and interrupting your rhythm and candence with the Universe. However, in the end, the most fulfilling part of any journey is overcoming adversity successfully, and enjoying the fruit that is produced from your valiant efforts. Let’s take a walk... shall we?

So if I were to take you on a deep dive into the depths of my thoughts and how I process information, and reveal to you my level of understanding, could you handle it? If I revealed to you that which gives me the drive to live with intent and intensity, could you manage? If I gave you a glimpse into the process I go through to define who I am… to determine the path I choose to take, and my ability to make a firm decision without doubting myself, and without the help of external influences, you may think I’m extreme. Maybe just a little, but I like to call that “balance”. Since about the age of 10, I’ve had wisdom beyond my years and could write from a perspective I should know nothing about. I am confident this is not my first time here. So in my wisdom I stand firm in my own identity, unwaveringly, and if I could offer any advice, I would suggest everyone decide today who they are for themselves. If not, then you leave space for a broken vessel to come in with their own idea of who they think you are or who they want you to be, and create confusion and disruption in your air space. Never allow someone who is clueless about their own identity to cause you to doubt your own. You should never give up that kind of control. Don’t lose your sense of peace for the opinion of someone who may be in pieces. 

You see, the thing about broken vessels is that they do not realize or acknowledge that they are broken. Instead of turning their focus inward to address the perils of their own sinking ship, they deflect their feelings of insecurity and emotional abandon onto others in an attempt to point out (in great detail) the holes in another one’s boat, while avoiding the sight and significance of their own shipwreck. Like castaways on a deserted island with nothing but time and opportunity on their hands, they deliberately choose to look outside of themselves for issues to repair in others, all while their boat is continually filling up with water and descending fast. The real repair is internal, but I digress... I believe that we all evolve not just in our physical bodies, but in how we think as well, or at least I hope so. Personal discovery and acceptance is important to our emotional development, in addition to expecting the same of others. As empathetic beings, we should always extend grace to others to be who and what they want to be, and we should heal that part of our ego that expects everything and everyone around them to remain the same always. Life doesn’t work like that.

“There is nothing in life quite as nice as that pure, authentic peace.”  ~ Angela Shannon Ponder

Now I've never been one to want to complicate life. I like to keep things slow and easy. I prefer to float as opposed to fighting against the current, and when the elements seem to be too much to bear, I rest in the peace and flow of the atmosphere. I don't need the hustle and noise of life nor do I need to be amongst the crowd. I am in love with my solitude. I try to engage with it often and within it I experience divine manifestation. I joke often that my mind never sleeps, even during rest... dreams and visions consume me. As a highly intuitive type, I am often submerged in deep thought. When I FINALLY do relax, I try to become in tune with mindful motion, and open myself up to all creative possibilities (you know, that co-creator vibe). Like water, I will continue to move where I choose to move and how I choose; immersing deep within and doing it without resistance, to allow positive change to continue to unfold naturally in my life. Remember that wisdom? Yeah, nothing can stand against it. 

This concept was deep for me and I needed to create it in and around one of my favs... a body of water (there is just something about water). Well, I knew I needed someone for this concept that would embrace it and not be afraid of it, so Shayla joined us again for another project and she did an AMAZING job! Please enjoy the images that follow from our "Submerged" concept!
