Welcome to March, Lovelies!

March 1, 2018 by Trish Leave a Comment

hello-marchHello March!

Welcome to March, lovelies. We’ve got your March Blog Prep Kit filled with writing prompts, national holidays and a few other goodies in this blog post to help you get motivated for March.

As a blogger, you know how hard it can be to find the time to write and often, the topic to write about. We know content is incredibly important so each month we’re giving you a blog prep kit with blog post ideas, social media prompts (aka hashtag holidays), and some noteworthy dates to add to your planner. We’ll also toss in a few fun, wacky and wild holidays just to liven things up a bit, as well.

I hope March finds you well and right on track with all those New Year’s resolutions you made. Keep pushing forward. March has 5 weeks (and weekends! Woohoo!) so there’s plenty of time to be uber-productive. Keep a smile on your face and a song in your heart and if you need a little extra motivation. Check in with us on Monday’s for our Motivational Monday posts.

Is it feeling like Spring where you are? It’s feeling more Spring-like here along the coast. Today was quite breezy and the sun was shining. March has, no doubt, come in like a lion!

Movies We Recommend This March

God’s Not Dead 3

If you missed God’s Not Dead (2014) and God’s Not Dead 2 (2016) you’ll want to catch up on those before heading out to watch God’s Not Dead 3 – A Light in Darkness coming to theatres March 30th.

The film features a star-studded cast, including David A.R. White, John Corbett, Ted McGinley, Shane Harper, Jennifer Taylor, Benjamin Onyango, with special appearances by Dr. Cissy Houston and Tatum O’Neal.

A church destroyed. A congregation silenced. A relationship shattered. Yet even in life’s darkest valleys, a small flame can light the way toward healing and hope.

A deadly fire rips through St. James Church, devastating the congregation and Pastor Dave. Adjoining Hadleigh University uses the tragedy to kick the congregation off campus. The escalating controversy creates a dilemma for the small church—can Christians fight for their rights and be the light for Christ at the same time?

Facing a court case and his own struggle to see Christ’s light in heartbreak, Dave asks for help from Pearce, his estranged brother—a big-city lawyer and an atheist—to fight for the church’s right to exist. The family reunion opens old wounds, as the brothers wrestle with the questions that pulled them apart years ago: Is God really good all the time? Where is God when bad things happen? Can Christ really heal the brokenhearted?

A Wrinkle in Time

Another great film to add to your list this month is A Wrinkle in Time, scheduled to be released by Walt Disney Pictures March 9th. This movie is sure to be visually stunning. A Wrinkle in Time is a sci-fi fantasy adventure based on the 1962 novel of the same name by Madeleine L’Engle. This film packs a powerful cast of big names like Oprah Winfrey,  David Oyelowo, Reese Witherspoon, Mindy Kaling, Zach Galifianakis, and Chris Pine, along with some lesser known actors and actresses, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Michael Peña, Storm Reid. The movie follows a young girl who sets off on a quest, with the help of three astral travelers, to find her father, who went missing after discovering a new planet.

Two very different films, both dealing with light and darkness.

No one has escaped the challenges that 2020 has of No one has escaped the challenges that 2020 has offered⁣
⁣
The question is: Are you going to let 2020 define you? Or are you going to create your own narrative?⁣
⁣
✨{𝐅𝐑𝐄𝐄}✨ 𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐝 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞⁣
[3 Part Masterclass Series Oct. 22-24]⁣
⁣
I  know you. The over achiever.  The planner. The one who doesn't appreciate failure, changes, or surprises. You desire to have things under control -- and 2020 was NOT in our control.⁣
⁣
Because over the past 7 years of living life as a coach, I wanted to control everything. Yet - things happened that I couldn't control. And my mindset was tested daily.⁣
⁣
❗️Getting fired 3 times!⁣
❗️Almost getting evicted.⁣
❗️Having collections & IRS calling me daily.⁣
❗️Having to shut down my first business.⁣
⁣

We are now wrapping up the year of 2020:⁣
✏️Do you have a sense of certainty on your direction?⁣
✏️Do you feel solid in your confidence to make it though?⁣
✏️Do you feel like 2020 is happening TO you, or FOR you?⁣
✏️Do you experience anxiety, and want to move into joy and gratitude?⁣
⁣
If these questions resonate with you, you've come to the right place. In this 𝐅𝐑𝐄𝐄 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 & 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞, (starting on Oct. 22) I will teach you...how to have clarity, confidence, and certainty [plus much more!]⁣

✨HOW TO STAY MOTIVATED/ ON TRACK ✨ 1 plan ou ✨HOW TO STAY MOTIVATED/ ON TRACK ✨

1  plan out your workouts for the week — so you have a plan it helps keep you accountable. I look at my schedule for the week and figure out what classes I can take.

2  MEAL PREP — if you live a busy life, it is so important to think ahead and plan your meals out in advance so you aren’t tempted to eat out/unhealthy foods. 

3  DONT BE AFRAID TO TRY SOMETHING NEW — this is so important, if you find what you love it will be the best part of your day. 

I am by no means a fitness expert, these are just a few tips that have helped me along the way. 

Xo, cat. ⚡️

Crisp #Fall air and sunshine. Nothing better this Crisp #Fall air and sunshine. Nothing better this time of year. This iconic church stands in New Bern and has plenty of quiet spots on its beautiful grounds for reflection. It also has a playground for the kids. It’s currently decorated for Fall and Halloween with lots of spots for beautiful photos. 🍁

WE ARE BLACK WOMEN.....we build...we don’t tear down other BLACK WOMEN! We have felt the pain of being torn down and we have decided that we will be deliberate about building others! 
All too often, we find it easier to criticize each other instead of building each other up! With all of the negativity going around, let’s spread something positive! Upload one picture of yourself.....ONLY you. Then tag as many sisters to do the same. Let’s build ourselves up instead of tearing ourselves down 💕COPY and PASTE💕

Thanks for tagging me @themamamogul and @ashley.dominique ! #ncblogger #amplifymelanatedvoices

It’s not my job to educate you about racism, I’m tired and exhausted. I’m a young Black educated woman who is aware of my privilege which hasn’t stopped me from experiencing Racism, so are many of my Black educated young Black sisters and brothers. I’m not looking for a pity party but CHANGE. So I’m going to use my energy on sharing ways to uplift our community. When a Black woman speaks up don’t tell her she’s aggressive while my White pairs are addressed as confident. Posting a black square as solidarity is nice but Brands- Pay Black Creators and stop asking us to work for exposure or products when we use our resources, time, money and energy to create the same content. We shouldn’t have to work twice as hard to be heard, visible and taken care off. We deserve to be treated equally. I shouldn’t have to ask to see people who like me on your Instagram feed, travel campaigns or campaigns in general. We shouldn’t have to ask for this things, it’s the bare minimum. I’m appreciative of the brands who have done this all along. We can create change together🤎 #amplifymelatedvoices #supportBlackWomen #SupportblackCreators #Payblackcreators
