Tuesday, May 6th, we had a blast kicking off the summer run of our Love What You Do networking mixer! Dj Fanci, Ahrif Sarumi and I want to extend a huge warm heartfelt thank you to everyone for coming out to support our vision of bringing together our city’s dreamers, doers, believers, etc. to the same place, at the same time. The clothes pin icebreaker was a hit, and it was great to see so many connections being made.
If you’re still drooling over those tasty delights we enjoyed, be sure to follow CHEF VICKY V @FOODEZonthego! And of course, we’d like to offer an extra special thanks to Grace Rodriguez and Dean’s Downtown for being such great hosts.
Last but not least, congratulations to Ahrif on leaving his job to pursue his dreams full time, and Val (Dj Fanci) on the super successful launch of her video show for 97.9 The Box. You’re living the dream! Love you guys!!
Be sure to: check out @whos_boudreaux, @InMuse& @ohmynamebigtob for updates on their upcoming projects, and post your photos from the event with the hashtag #LWYDHou.
We’ll see you in June! Take a look below for photos from the event!
I recently had the pleasure of sitting down with my good friend and marketer, Ahrif Sarumi, to discuss the concept of the Lizard Brain, and more importantly, how to quiet it! So many of us have goals and dreams that we can’t go a day without thinking about, but we’re just too scared to pursue them. That feeling is no mistake! There is a part of our brain called the amygdala, and it’s job is to provide us with our most primal instincts: fear, hunger and arousal. It drives us to fend off predators and protect ourselves from harm. In theory, it’s a blessing, but the key is learning how to push past it, so that we can take risks and achieve all that God has in store for us!
In our interview, I share my personal struggle with getting past my lizard brain, and why The Coffey Break Chat is such a big part of this process. Take a look below for Ahrif’s three tips on how to overcome being your biggest obstacle! Enjoy!
Is there a dream you’re struggling to achieve? Do you have a personal testimony of how you’ve overcome you personal lizard brain moments? We want to hear from you! Feel free to share in the comments below 🙂
