MOTM #486: Cultivating Communities of Care (Part II)

Thursday, June 22nd, 2023

This episode is the second part of a 2-part episode with my girl, my twin Laura Jean. If you haven’t listened to Part 1 yet, get on that! I’m always mentioning Laura Jean on this podcast because she’s had such a profound impact on the way I think, and after you hear these two episodes I know you’ll feel the same way.

I see a lot online about “putting yourself first” and “self-care” but so much of it is all talk, no action. Laura Jean is laying out what it actually means to put yourself first, and not just the surface level stuff, but really getting to know yourself and cultivate communities where we are cared for (and where we care for others!). Our businesses should exist to meet our needs, and not just the financial aspect, but our need to be held as well.

Welcome to Maestro on the Mic, a podcast that helps online business owners find their passion, generate more profit, and build a life that they love. I'm your host, Dr. Shanté Cofield, aka The Movement Maestro, and I’m stoked to have you here. I hope this podcast inspires you to make moves and do the thing. Action is the answer.

In This Episode You'll Hear:

  • Prioritizing yourself
  • To be held, and to hold space in return
  • Getting to know yourself
  • Caring for, instead of taking care of
  • Creation and cultivation
  • A business to meet our needs
  • Marketing is manipulation—but it doesn’t have to be
