Let’s Talk!

VelJane’s Topics

Finding Your Purpose, Your Self Esteem, and Holding on to your God Given Treasures

Why are you here? Do you have any dreams or goals? Can you name two of your gifts or talents? What is your impression of yourself? Do you have self-respect? If you can’t answer these questions, or if you can answer them but the response is negative, then it is obvious that you are unsure of your purpose and have lost your self-esteem and your treasures. This session aims to assist in identifying one’s gifts, talents, and purpose and to regain self-esteem that one is born with.

Let’s Talk About The Break -Up, Sex, and the Emotional Side of Sex

Often there is conversation centered around having sex, protecting yourself from sexually transmitted diseases, how to please your partner during sex, what to expect, etc. However, it is rare that we cover the topic of how sex affects us emotionally and how to recover from a breakup after we have given ourselves physically to our partners. After a breakup, we wonder, why am I feeling some sort of way? What’s happening to me? I’m not myself and feeling out of control. This workshop created for men and women gives a possible explanation on why it is hard to move forward after a break-up and being sexually intimate with our partners and gives a close look at another option…Abstinence.

Are you in the WRONG ROOM? Are you running in the SLOW HEAT?

When you’re in a social or business gathering are you the best thing in the room? Can you do your job or assignments with your eyes closed? Is your routine pretty much the same? Does your job require in-depth thinking and strategic planning less than 70% of the time? Does everyone want to talk to you or just be in your presence? Do others constantly tell you how great you are? If you have answered yes to at least two of those questions then, you’re in the WRONG ROOM and running in the SLOW HEAT. In order for us to continue to grow and develop, we must strive to be in the presence of others who are more advanced than we are. This session is to assist with identifying if we are in the right room of life. In addition, although some may be in the wrong room, there is also a group that isn’t in a room at all. Instead they are in the hallways watching the rooms of life. Therefore, this session will also assist with moving individuals out of the hallways and placed into the right room for individual growth.

How to Make the Best Out of a Bad Situation

Life will sometimes throw curve balls, or deal bad hands, but what matters most is how you decide to swing at the curve ball or play the bad hand. Rhonda shares her life story of being educated in a predominately white private catholic school during her elementary and middle school years, being educated in a diverse High School, and being educated in a predominately black college (HBCU). In addition, she shares details of growing up in a single parent household at the age of twelve. During this journey she hovers in the valley of despair, which later led to self-discovery that fostered into strength, belief, faith, courageousness, independence, and success. This session is to identify ways to make the best out of a bad situation.

Is Your Window Open?

Do you often wonder the following: how did this happen to me? How did I get myself into this situation? The explanation of your thoughts is simple. We all have strengths and weaknesses. However, we must not allow our strengths and weaknesses to become distractions. A distraction can and will become toxic. If toxins have leaked into your life than clearly, “Your Window Was Open.” We must identify with our strengths and weaknesses and develop strategies to keep us away from the land mines. This session is to assist with not only identifying weaknesses, but also how to prevent them from leaking toxins into your life by keeping Your Window SHUT!

Chaos and Confusion, Hate and Discontent. (CCHD)

Do you have CCHD Syndrome? Do you have a lack of organization or order? Are you in constant turmoil and disarray? Is there a lack of clearness or disorientation? Do you feel an intense dislike for a number of things that keep you up at night? Or do you have a restless desire or craving for something that you do not have? If you answered yes to two or more of these questions, then you are experiencing CCHD. This session aims to identify and control destructive chaos and confusion in ones life and/or identify strategies to completely dismantle negative behavior.

Team Building

Rhonda brings expertise derived from 25 years of military and civilian experience gained through accomplishing diverse organizational objectives. She has repeatedly been successful at streamlining processes, team building, and creating and executing complex programs and projects to meet organizational goals. After serving in the military for 20 years, Rhonda gives detailed information on why team building is important to the overall goals and objectives of a company or organization and how to build an UNSTOPPABLE Team.

The Power of Kindness and Being Different!

Affectionate, considerate, friendly, gracious, loving, humanitarian acts are all words or expressions that lead to the word kind. Is it possible that putting these words and expressions into action could seep beneath our consciousness thereby creating power in every aspect of our lives? Have you ever received an opportunity simply because of the way you or your family kindly treated someone in the past? Could being kind give one the courage to be different? Could being kind lead to your personal happiness and those around you? This workshop is to explore the power of being kind and how acts of kindness can become contagious to the world around you thereby creating positive change.

External Contacts

External Contacts are contacts outside of your immediate family unit and can expand to your extended family, your church, your neighborhood, all the way to educational institutions. This workshop identifies external contacts, takes a look at the value of having external contacts, and the role they play in the community. This session also dissects the impact of those who grow up without a functional family unit and how they can greatly benefit from having access to external contacts.
