• 418 | Absorbing Love: How Our Fathers Shaped Our Emotional Blueprint

  Have you ever stopped to think about how you learned love — not through words, but through what you absorbed from the men who raised you? In today’s episode, Tyra explores how our early experiences with father figures — whether tender or tough — shaped our emotional language. Together, we unpack what it means to redefine love on your own terms and give yourself permission to want softness, consistency, and presence.This week’s Affirmation is: “I deserve softness — in how I speak to myself, how I love, and how I’m loved in return.”3 Biggest TakeawaysLove is often absorbed, not taught — and that impacts how we show up emotionally.You’re allowed to crave love that feels emotionally safe, expressive, and affirming.Redefining love for yourself isn’t betrayal — it’s healing.Join The Refill Room: Our Exclusive Subscriber Only Hub https://app.redcircle.com/shows/84f884fe-819e-43b6-b877-ad8ad08f986e/exclusive-content Visit my Food Blog: www.TyrasTable.com ResourcesAlexis’ ‘Feeling My Shelf’ Newsletter: https://www.feelingmyshelfnewsletter.com/ 50 side quests to do this year - https://we.tl/t-gmLxjREKx4  Listen to the For Life’s Rainy Day Playlist Wanna give therapy a try?

• 416 | Before You Fall in Love Again… Ask Yourself These 5 Questions | Am I ready to be a Partner? Your Love Life Deserves a Firm Foundation and it begins with YOU.

  In today’s episode, Tyra is pulling back the curtain on five life-check questions that you should ask yourself before jumping (back) into the dating world. From your relationship with money to your routines and future goals, this is the episode that’ll help you pause and really evaluate whether you’re ready for love—or just longing for a distraction. It’s real, it’s reflective, and a reminder that you're already worthy, with or without a partner.This week’s Affirmation is “ I choose love from overflow, not emptiness.”3 Biggest Takeaways:Dating from a place of self-abandonment leads to confusion, codependency, and settling for less than you deserve.Building a strong relationship with yourself — your money, body, routines, and goals — lays the foundation for real love.You don’t find yourself in a relationship. You bring yourself into it — whole, clear, and grounded.Try The Calm App https://rebrand.ly/21n4tre Try Class Pass (Get 20 Free Credits) https://classpass.com/refer/ENCD196T4 ResourcesAlexis’ ‘Feeling My Shelf’ Newsletter: https://www.feelingmyshelfnewsletter.com/ 50 side quests to do this year - https://we.tl/t-gmLxjREKx4  Listen to the For Life’s Rainy Day Playlist Wanna give therapy a try?

  In today’s Pep Talk Wednesday, Tyra opens up about what it means to finally step out of survival mode and into a season of softness.
