ADDRESS YOUR DEEPEST FEARS

Welcome to the Black Girl Motivates Podcast. Formerly known as the Black Girl Meditates Podcast! In this episode, host, Rickisa Owens reads aloud "Our Deepest Fear" by Marianne Williamson. and addresses her own "deepest" fear. What is yours?

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear in that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our Light, not our Darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the World. There is nothing enlightening about shrinking so that other people won’t feel unsure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone. As we let our own Light shine, we consciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

Charge Up! | Ep. 4


In this episode of The Black Girl Meditates podcast, host Rickisa Owens, aka Kisa, dives deep into the power of gratitude and the concept of energy. The episode, aptly titled "Charged Up," is a profound exploration of how harnessing the energy within us can lead to greater peace and joy in our lives.

Kisa opens the episode by guiding us through a 60-second gratitude exercise, encouraging listeners to contemplate and record the things they're thankful for. This practice sets the tone for the episode, highlighting the importance of recognizing and harnessing positive energy.

Through meditation, prayer, and other positive practices, Kisa shares how she recharges and stays in touch with her inner energy.
