    I just turned 29 and went on a solo trip to San Francisco for my birthday…1st solo trip ever and it was honestly so empowering as a newly single woman. I felt so free and confident. I took myself out to a nice dinner and just something about feeling confident in being alone and not feeling lonely was the best feeling ever. I watched your previous solo date video prior to my trip and it inspired me even more. Thank you for putting out this content and being such a light…your energy, your aura and your confidence is so beautiful sis. Keep it up! God bless💕✨

      That is awesome!!! I flew to Chicago in October for my birthday by myself and enjoyed it. I got dressed up and went to a super nice restaurant and had the time of my life by myself. I believe in the moments of being satisfied with doing solo things and if another person plays into the equation, it's a compliment to what I have going on but not needed.

    When I was in my early 20’s, I was in a dating drought for 2 years. During that time I learned to love my own company. I took myself to dinner, to the movies, concerts and plays. I loved it. I’m now in my 50’s, married with children. I STILL love my own company. I occasionally take myself to lunch and movies. I’ve even gone to a few concerts WITH myself.
    I see my life as a pie. I will share some of it with my family and friends, but I will ALWAYS keep a piece for ME.
    May you continue to pursue your ideal self. Blessings!

    This shows me that we all grow in different areas and shouldn’t judge . You mentioned that you struggle with eating healthy and waking up at 5 am . For me I struggle with social anxiety however I’m that girl that eats healthy , wakes up at 5 am to workout and get things done sooner but I struggle with self confidence etc . This is why I want friendships as well , I feel like having women friends can help you reflect during our self growing journey 🌻.

      I don't know if you have studied some information ℹ️ n certain anxiety disorders.
      Changing our food & drinks & diet affects anxiety issues. Especially having sugar in our diets & white flour foods & high fructose & other forms of sugars or high sodium foods all really affect out function & calm.
      Leaky Gut is an issue that affects us also. Taking Gabba - cleaning out our stomach & systems & eating super foods, root foods, no gluten , no soy no diary I see as best for our food & drink choices that lower certain anxiety - disorders. Having confidence as a woman 👠🤗 is a big good smart training & discussion in RC Blake's Channel. Tony Gaskins has life coaches & good teaching also. Best wishes to you ,& your next life's blessed journey , God Had for you walking in faith & crushing fear to victory 🙏😅👍💕!!!!

      Hi Dang,
      You're right on having friends to help in self-reflection and growth. I'm an introvert and purposed years back to have outgoing female friends. So 50% of my friends are extroverts with different personalities..and I enjoy learning and adapting new habits or behaviors in place of my weaknesses. And they too, learn and grow in areas where I'm really strong.

    It is ABSOLUTELY empowering to be a single woman whom loves/respects/treats HERSELF well even though there’s not another person (needing a man or relationship 🙄) involved ‼️
    You’re NOT less of an attractive or valuable person because you’re not in a relationship 🙄
    Go off Maya‼️👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Salute 🥂

      I was in tears as well. Maya truly touched my heart with this video. I have started already, but I want to continue to be diligent in catering to the new me. I also want to love on myself. Example: I took myself to a cooking class this week. The experience was ahhhhmazing....I realized, I will start taking myself out on dates more consistently. My next goal will be to glam up for my next date :)

    I take myself out often and you’re right it’s the most empowering feeling ever! Especially when I take myself to places the guys I used to date would say was too expensive or just to fancy for them. I’ve met so many wonderful people while out on my own. Now that I’ve been treating myself better I feel the energy coming from me is magnetic to those with like energy or better energy.

      You can do it 💝 Loving on you & injecting some feel good into your life experience is good for you & the whole family. Everyone needs to know that mom is important to mom. Mom prioritizes her physical, mental, and emotional needs. Mom does not tolerate any of us knowingly or unwittingly sabotaging her ability to enjoy her life. Mom knows that she is the only one who will take her last breath, so she’ saves a lil of herself for herself.
      You can do it. I was there.

    So, I truly needed this video. Many women have the same dreams at heart to build a home, be a wife, and have children. And many of us fall short, and think we failed ourselves and/or our children myself included. I truly appreciate your vulnerability and honesty in sharing your heart. I have children, I'm not married, and I peeking at 40yrs of age. I do feel bad but I'm learning to acknowledge my accomplishments and set small more attainable goals. So it's really nice to see and be able to relate to another Queen that is willing to admit the things you shared. Thanks so much MAYA truly, stay blessed.

    I’m loving the confidence that you exude and the content was great. I especially love the part when you talk about your daughter because I was a young single parent. I have taken myself out on solo dates before and you’re right it’s very empowering. Solo dates made me feel as if I could conquer many obstacles some I did others are in the works. Be blessed 😇 and enjoy the holidays.

    Girl I just love and adore you!! I’m married and have been for about 11 years now and I take myself out on solo lunches. I love the time I get to spend with myself and just reset!! I think it’s amazing that you are giving women this extra confidence. It’s refreshing!! I love to see women revel in being a woman… taken or not!! Because at the end of the day we still have to love ourselves!!

    Continue motivating us sis!! I’ve been happily married for 12 years and I still feel inspired by your videos. There’s some things I enjoy doing , but my husband doesn’t. Instead of completely eliminating them from my life, I’ve been considering solo dating sometimes.
    Your videos have truly inspired me to take the leap. Yes… get dolled up ( since having babies I don’t do that often, except for when I’m going to church) and enjoy myself by myself. ❤

Sometimes you might feel self conscious but if you’re minding your business and enjoying yourself that should be enough! . You’re really inspiring. Wish you and your family Happy Holidays and lots of love and health for the coming year. 🎄😘😃

    Gurl... I love the message in this video! As a grown, grown woman. Yes, I'm not old, but older lol. I love seeing younger women treat themselves, and waiting for someone to treat them. I was definitely something I did a lot when I was single, and also something I taught my little sister to do as well. When you treat yourself a certain way, that is the standard you set for others. Love it mama☺️💐💐💐

I had my first solo date on Christmas Eve at Applebees lol… it was impromptu, then I realized wait I’m on a date by myself and I’m alive, I’m by myself and I’m at peace, I’m by myself and I’m content. I remember watching your videos a few days prior and it really gave me motivation. I feel like intention and purpose is so important and plan going on many more solo dates in the New Year! Thank you for being an inspiration, setting the tone and making it ok to date and love yourself 💕

    Maya, this was an amazing powerful video and it was much appreciated. Love your outfit and your hair and makeup are always on point. I made the decision months ago as 2021 was almost coming to an end. I love myself so much, and a little change is so wanted and needed. And I think and feel that making changes are exciting, and so fulfilling in so many ways. I love the lipstick that you were wearing. You are a woman that inspires so many women, and we appreciate you. Happy Holidays to you and your daughter!🎄🎄🎄🎄🌟🌟🌟🌟🎁🎁🎁❤️❤️❤️

I came for the makeup tips and your style cause I struggle in those areas. This deep dive was refreshing. I have traveled solo and casually dined out solo, but I’ll definitely have to try the solo date night. Loved learning about your daughter. I have a beautiful daughters as well. Similar journey in motherhood and dating the wrong guy.
