| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Black Girl Burnout podcast, Kelly here. And today I'm going to talk all about how to |
| 0:16.1 | own yourself. This is a conversation that I've been having with many people in my life and it's |
| 0:22.3 | been on my heart to talk about. We started the week by talking about it's goodness or get |
| 0:27.2 | out. And really, I want this week to feel like an empowering check-in as we're a little bit |
| 0:34.1 | halfway through the year about really the goals of this podcast, |
| 0:39.0 | what I want the goal to be of your life, which is to opt at a struggle. And one of the ways to |
| 0:44.4 | get there is by fully owning yourself. Like I said, this was a conversation I had with someone |
| 0:51.5 | just recently. And I've been having it again and again with |
| 0:55.4 | many other people. And when I talk about what I'm most proud of when it comes to myself, |
| 1:01.9 | is that I fully own who I am. I know I was recently talking to my mother about this, and we |
| 1:08.6 | were talking about many different things, but I was saying how I'm really proud of the fact that it has been hard fought to get here, |
| 1:18.3 | but that I know myself well enough to know the good points, the bad points, and because I own |
| 1:25.1 | myself, no one can dump on me, no one can project on me, no one can |
| 1:32.3 | leave me with their emotional litter in my little yard that I've curated for myself, |
| 1:38.6 | more on that conversation this Friday. But because I show up owning who I am, my life has radically changed for the better. |
| 1:50.6 | And I will continue to say that's probably the thing I'm most proud of. |
| 1:55.0 | Because once I foundationally unlocked full empowerment and ownership of who I am, everything else is becoming easier and will |
| 2:06.2 | become easier from here on out. And so today I want to talk about how you can own yourself, |
| 2:14.3 | really fully stand in the power of who you are and take accountability. But beyond that, |
| 2:22.1 | have that be your biggest strength that you are someone who knows who you are. And because of that, |
| 2:28.0 | you can no longer be gaslit. You can no longer be made to feel guilty. You no longer have |
| 2:32.9 | shame. You can only have pride and acknowledgement |
