Here are some tips: 1. Help them believe in themselves. This creates self-reliance. Reassure them of their greatness. 2. Find time to work on a project together. Trust me; your children will never forget it. To this day, my children still remember their weekly book reports during the summer that had nothing to do with school. 3. Ask your child what they are passionate about. Trust me; it will change a million and one times over the years. They will remember your time investment. 4. Share your story. Every child needs to know their parent's story and their journey. You can leave out all of the gory stuff and sexual encounters, but they need to know that you are human and that you hurt. 5. Don’t hide all of the life challenges with them. Share with them that gas is $5 a gallon and how many gallons you get and how far you can go on a gallon of gas. This will help them understand when they want those trips to the mall. 6. Finally, put some money in your child’s pocket. Get them a green dot card and help them earn money. Walking around broke is not what’s up. We are asking you to join our newsletter at bluepathwaysmentorshipservices.com. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/andrea-blue/support

Welcome! Welcome! Welcome! To another episode of Motivational Monday - Keeping It Real with Dr. Blue Hello good-looking and amazing people out there. Hello to the ugly people too. This is a beautiful day. Why? Because you are alive. We have one more day to get it right. There is nothing that you can’t do when you put your heart and mind into it! According to the Resource Center on Domestic Violence: Child Protection and Custody website, An alarming number of children are maltreated or exposed to domestic violence in the United States each year. Approximately four million referrals for alleged maltreatment are made to child protective agencies each year. Researchers have estimated that between 3.3 million and 10 million children are exposed to adult domestic violence each year. One researcher has estimated conservatively that at least 10 to 20 percent of children are exposed to intimate partner violence annually, with as many as one-third exposed at some point during childhood or adolescence. Here are some tips women to help prevent child abuse in your own home: Life if tough enough and we do not need to hurt our children. Remember domestic violence against children is everybody’s problem. Do something today to end it.

Welcome! Welcome! Welcome! To another episode of Motivational Monday - Keeping It Real with Dr. Blue I am Dr. Andrea Blue, the Founder and CEO of B & J Enterprises, LLC; which is our headquarters. Blue Pathways Educational Mentorship Services and Paramount Recruitment Agency is housed here. This podcast is for you if you are struggling, feeling alone, unsure of your choices and second guessing yourself all the while working hard to reach your next level in life. Give yourself some grace. We offer services as a transformational mindset mentor and coach for corporations, business owners, and individuals that need training and development and personal/professional development. We offer support by helping corporations, business owners, and individuals find and use their passion and purpose with a plan of action. · Having a plan for the future is vital to your personal growth. · It is important to express your pain and find a balance to help you move towards the next steps. · Focus on today because yesterday is gone. It may still hurt, but you can focus on the present. · You can’t drive a car with your head looking back. You must drive looking ahead of you. · Please get the support that you need. The first step is to ask for help. · You can walk around hurting and we expect others to see our pain, but people are unable to see it. · Ask for what you need. ·  If you are sad, cold, hungry, need a friend, tell someone. · Be mindful of those intruding thoughts that tell you that you are not good enough. · You are more than enough. · Look for the good in others and not the bad so that you find a reason to isolate. · It is your responsibility and mine to give back to those that are going through or have through the same story. For example, · Forgive yourself and others. Not for them, but for your own growth. Where there is no forgiveness, there is no growth. Let go of it. I am not saying you should forget, but you must let go so that you can grow. · Tell your story. I lived in an abusive marriage for 14 years, but with much prayer and trust in my own abilities, I was able to move forward and grade from college with 2 masters and doctoral degrees. I use everything that I have to help transform the lives of others so that they never have to go through what I went through. It is such a desolate place to be in even when you are in a room full of people.

Today’s Topic – Mindset – Ask For What You Need As You Return To Work Let’s start with the reason that it is time to go back to work. Returning to the work setting has nothing to do with the employer. According to a study conducted by McKinsey & Company, employees are asking for well communicated information about the COVID, feeling anxious about the future of the organization, burnt out and feeling underrepresented, needing a more flexible schedule after the COVID is over, and needed to work from home at least 3 days a week. Visit this link for more about the study: https://www.mckinsey.com/business-functions/organization/our-insights/what-employees-are-saying-about-the-future-of-remote-work. Employees, here are a few tips to return to work: · Ask for a flexible schedule; possibly working 3 days from home. · Get up and get dressed everyday. Do not lounge around in your night clothes. You are still at work or seeking employment. · Let your employer know that they can trust you. Do what you say you will do when you say you will do it. Stick to deadlines. · Find a place in the home that allows for you to complete your work away from the tv and distractions. · Practice social distancing… · Take some time to breathe and focus on your mental health. Seek a counselor if you need one. Tell the truth about about your story when you meet with them. · Make a personal choice to go back full time for you and your family. Remember to do something that you love to do and it will never feel like work. · Practice a positive mindset to make it easier to be aware of your strengths. · Spend time feeding the mind great thoughts about yourself with positive affirmations. · Reflect on where you want to be. · Write them down in your journal every day. · Appreciate and be grateful for all of your blessings. · Express your gratefulness to those that support you. · Say it out of your mouth. People need to hear it. We can’t read your minds. You are not alone. Call to action · If you are a business owner and you need help, hire one of our skilled, vetted, trained, and qualified remote assistants to help grow your business. · Look for our webinar that will come soon on how to hire a remote assistant with Paramount Recruitment Agency. · Are you ready to share your story?
