This week on Intentionally B U, we’re breaking the silence and tackling a topic that many women are silently struggling with: menopause.

From sudden hot flashes, mood swings, and unexplained weight gain to deep emotional lows—these symptoms are real, and they’re affecting women everywhere, often without warning or diagnosis.

In this episode, I share my personal journey with menopause—how I discovered what was really going on in my body, how my symptoms were misdiagnosed or overlooked, and why it’s time for us as women to speak up, get educated, and stop suffering in silence.

💡 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• The common symptoms of menopause—and how they can easily be mistaken for something else

• Why women often go undiagnosed or misdiagnosed for years

• My personal story of discovering I was in full-blown menopause

• The emotional, mental, and physical impact of menopause

• The importance of hormone therapy, supplements, and self-advocacy

• Why open conversation and community are crucial for healing

• Encouragement for women who feel alone, confused, or overwhelmed

📖 Encouragement for the Journey:

"You are not broken. You are evolving. And even through the heat, the hormones, and the changes—you are still YOU."

You don’t have to live in the dark about your body. You deserve answers, support, and healing—and we’re doing this together, one honest conversation at a time.

Today, we’re diving into a word that’s been making waves lately—DeLulu. You may have heard it, but what does it really mean? And how does it connect to manifesting your dreams?

After watching a talk show where guests shared how embracing the DeLulu mindset helped them achieve their goals, I started wondering, could this just be faith in action?

💡 In this episode, we explore:
✅ What DeLulu means and how it’s being used to manifest dreams
✅ The connection between DeLulu and faith, and how both require belief in the unseen
✅ Real-life stories of individuals who used this mindset to land their dream job, meet their ideal partner, and build their savings
✅ How unwavering belief—whether in faith or the DeLulu mindset—can push you past doubts, setbacks, and critics

📖 Hebrews 11:1 reminds us that “faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” So is DeLulu just another way of saying we believe in something before it happens?

No matter where you stand—whether you’re walking by faith or embracing DeLulu—one thing is clear: believing in yourself and your vision is a powerful force for change.

✨ Your Takeaway:

• Keep believing in your dreams, even when no one else does
• Push past the critics, the setbacks, and the doubts
• Stay intentional in your journey—because your belief is what will carry you through

I’m rooting for you! Keep dreaming big, stay encouraged, and as always, be intentional.

In this episode, we explore the ups and downs of life’s journey, comparing them to the thrill and unpredictability of a roller coaster. Today, I share my personal experiences with recent challenges, including health struggles and financial pressures, and how they felt like a never-ending ride filled with swoops, loops, and unexpected drops.

I reflect on the importance of preparation—both physically and spiritually—and how being intentional about her health, finances, and relationships helped me navigate the twists and turns. I emphasize the value of surrounding yourself with a supportive community and relying on the strength of others when you can’t do it alone. From securing your "life’s valuables" to leaning into self-care, I urge you to prioritize yourself, take action to maintain your well-being, and remember that self-care is not selfish.

Key Takeaways:

• Life’s challenges can feel like a roller coaster, but preparation helps you navigate the ride.
• Surround yourself with supportive people who uplift and pray for you when you need it most.
• Be intentional about self-care—regular checkups, healthy habits, and staying on top of your health are vital.
• Don’t be afraid to ask for help, whether it's from loved ones or through financial and health resources.
