  • Love your energy!

  • OMG...this message was so talking directly to me. I have been slipping in and out of the things I know i want as an individual. Im a mother and wife, but im also a woman first. Thanks for the reailty check...Keep up the good works and advice...God is really using you! God Bless!!

  • So true!!! I have been a mother since the age of 17, married for 13 years (we've been together for about 21 years total) I'm only 35 years old!!! I have SERIOUSLY LOST MYSELF!!!!!!!, I am currently working on getting back to me! Thank you for this video!!!!! Peace and love:-)

  • Ooommmmg AAAAAAMEN!!! Seriously well said!! Love this! Going in my favorites! :)

  • that's what I keep saying around me I'm not married yet, but I see my parents ... and I do believe they'd be happier if they had hobbies by themselve instead of constantly stay at home and do...nothing which bring to boredom and arguments. have a social life, meet friends, spend time doing something we like to do can only make us appreciate life more. we all need space.

  • Real Talk...

    you are a very good person BG.

  • KEEP INSPIRING BRONZEGODDESS! KNOW THAT SO MANY ARE BEING BLESSED BY YOU!!!

  • Gullllllllllll In my Bama voice! Love it! will be sharing this video!

  • BronzeGoddess you have done it again. Loved your message.

  • I loved this video BG. You're such an inspiration to so many people. Bless

  • Wow thats deep..I really appreciate this video. I am a wife and have been doing some things on my own time that I enjoy and it seems like he get's jealous and wants to go out and do things on his time. The way he does it is so unhealthy its like a tic for tac thing. You are very blessed to have a husband that gets that you need "me" time.....=)

  • I got cut off but I was saying I love you videos and strawberry letters. I wish I could be in Atl for ur meet and greet. Ur a great inspiration;)

  • Ok let me stop crying and say thank you. I'm still tying to find myself after a bad break up that made me mommy and daddy. It's hard for me to be me when I'm trying to be a positive role model for my 14yr old daughter, and a playmate and disciplinarian to my 9yr old son. It's very hard for me to find any spare time for me, to be me:(

    But everything you said hit a cord in my heart and made the flood gates open. I do love watching ur videos and have a love for make up and all things girly;), I ev

  • wow... im speechless and thanking God for this video... i am going through this right now.. I'm no longer with the love of my life.. the man I know God placed in my life, the man I thought I'd marry and am a lil unsure about it sometimes now.. but since we broke up ive been a mess.. I got so used to spending time with him and doing everything with him that I forgot what makes me happy. I am now trying to get it all in perspective, thnx for the confirmation, this vid is a blessing to me. =)

  • Thank you for doing this video because in the last 3 or 4 years, I have been sacrificing myself for others. I have been taking care of my family, friend, and my ex-boyfriend. I had dreams of doing and living this great life in another state, but I came home and I have been taking care of people. I have gotten lost in myself and I don't know what steps I need to take because when I try to do something, things happen. I am trying to put the pieces back together in my life. Thank you!

  • thanks soo much for this video because thats te exact circumstance I'm in right now. I just came out of a relationship and im now having to rediscover myself so thanks for the confirmation. 

  • its amazing that i watched this video now cuz I was just thinking not too long ago about who I am. I am a wife and mother of four and outside of that it feels like I have no identity. I do love to paint and its something that I've been wanting to do but it feels like there is no time cuz I'm so busy. It's so bad that when I'm alone I have no idea what to do with myself...lol That's what got me to thinking, who am I? Well I guess I better be on a quest to find the answer to that question. Thanks

  • u look so different in this video almost didn't recognize u!!!!!!!!!

  • Preach...

  • Wow, you were tearing up! I think it's so

    amazing and wonderful that the thought of how sweet your husband is brought you to tears. You are truly an inspiration! It would be a blessing to be in a relationship where the man isn't keeping you back, but is helping you move forward.

  • Marsha Ambrosius has the song lose myself on her album it's beautiful....i didn't know Lauryn Hill originally made this song!

  • I just love your spirit! Thank God for the SIsta's who can keep it real. I love the way you get your point across and use your experiences as examples. You are truly an inspiration and believe me your husband knows how blessed he is! Never apologize for being sensitive to your feelings! A lot of young women can learn from your insight. May God continue to bless and keep you and your family and please keep posting. Your post are a breath of sunshine! Blessings BTW Loc tutorial for this style!

  • GOD BLESS YOU!!! I am an Army wife and mother and my God, I feel like I enlisted in the military. I am on their schedule, often I wonder...what about me? This was so empowering!!! Thank you =)

  • Thanks I really needed that encouragement !!!!!!!! 

  • Amen. I learned late in life but this is very, very true.

Soooooo true that many of us women get lost in our relationships and that consumes us.Thank you for making this video! It was just a confirmation of what many of us as women feel.

  • You need new batteries in your alarms. The beeping will stop after that.

  • lovely

  • thanks so much bg!!! i missed my bible study last week but my friend told me that pastor said that we actually have an obligation to use/display the gifts and passions/hobbies that god has instilled in us and that it is wrong not to do things that make us happy (in that regard)

  • Great video!

  • Very inspiring... I love your videos. I don't understand why you got 2 dislikes for this video since it's so inspiring, but I guess there will always be haters no matter what. God Bless you and your family. I can't with til the Meet & Greet. I hope I am able to go.

  • I LOVE the message of this video. I've been with my boyfriend for a few years now and I find myself constantly reminding myself to maintain the LIFE I had prior to our relationship. BG, you are truly the older sister (in my head) that I never had.

  • I really don't know why anyone would not like this video. Bronze Goddess, you are so encouraging and inspirational. Stay the course, LUV YA!

  • well said

  • Great message. I'm married with kids and i've found myself struggling with this concept for years. How could anyone 'dislike' this video???? Thanks for the encouragement!!

  • Beautiful message as usual BG! Much respect.  Stay blessed and fly~

  • I'm going through a bad divorce right now after 11 years of marriage and you always come with the right message the day I truly need it and it gives me strength. Thankyou

  • LOVE the message in this vid!!!!

  • Your videos are always right on time. Silvia Brown ain't got nothing on you girl. This is a realization that I've come to over the past couple weeks and have been moving forward in pursuing my passions. Sounds easy but its a slight struggle shifting to being self centered which isn't a bad thing because it's all about centering yourself in life. Thank you once again for the inspiration and for being so open with sharing your life lessons with others. Much Peace and Many Blessings.

  • great vid bronze...it is so easy to lose yourself...we are women...we are nurturing and tend to take care of others and not take or even think about ourselves.

  • I needed to hear this. Great vid....

  • Yes!!! I'm beginning to get a life b/c I lost myself in a long term relationship. Now I'm nurturing my needs & desires more. I love it :-D and now I'm being told that I'm being selfish and thinking about myself too much! What! From now on I'm doing me all the way.

  • This message was right on time....Thanks;)

  • That tugged on my heart and brought tears to my eyes. I am a single women I have done alot for people in my life over the years, before I would do for myself, for the longest time all I wanted to be was a wife and a mother, years and years have gone by and that is still in my heart, over the years I have learned myself more and more. You are so right and thank you for sharing that

  • You are a very beautiful person...inside and out. Keep it up girl :)

  • Amen..!!! I believe that if you want to sustain a relationship you have to (1) bring something to the table (2) and produce an continuous ROI. Why would someone invest in you if you don't have business value?

  • love the eyeshadow with the shirt, and the hair is soo cute

  • BOMB.COM!! Fist Pump for a great and much needed video.. You rock BG :)

  • girl... you are truly thebomb.com I have been trying to get this message through to my boyfriend of 3 yrs who puts everything and everybody wants and needs before his own which I do love that about him but it can be a bit annoying at time because i can see how it affects him and his happiness and sense of identity. I have to do for him what your husband does for you buy him something or take him somewhere I wishyou could come to Dallas and preach it to him lol I will show him this love you girl

  • Wonderfully, true video. I am pleased to be a wife, full time mom, home educator, plus. I love, adore and care for my husband and ons with passion. Yet I care for me without guilt. I get monthly full body massages, go to the movies ( solo and with friends), take up special interest classes, keep my studies up to keep my license active. I didn't get a masters degree to just let it and my skills lag. Ladies/men embrace your lives, live them to the fullest. Live a life of no regrets.

  • AWESOME video......advice well taken! I really really needed this! :o)

  • You don't know how much I really needed to hear this today...my hubby tells me all the time to get out the house and do more for myself...thank you for posting this <3

  • The love you and your husband share almost brings you to tears when you speak of it..that is beautiful and makes me want to continue to believe there is someone out there for me and that love is a tender beautiful thing and not just a sad and hurtful hardship. THANKYOU!

  • So true! It'll make you feel better too.

  • Incredible advice, BG. Thank you :)

  • I am a military wife and it's hard to get a circle of friends at the new bases. I always have to change jobs and right now I don't have one so I am lost!

  • so true, sister. my husband tells me the same thing. Stay blessed. I hope one day we can meet. :)

  • I loved this...

  • Okay BG!!!  I am gonna need you to call me or email me so we can chat one on one. I have been married for 14 yrs and we both were in the military. I got out in 99 and have only worked for 2 yrs since because I have been raising my kids and constantly moving (he's still in -25+ yrs). I have been telling myself "get a life, I am more than just a spouse, mother, I can do so much more!!!!" I just need to take that 1st step. I could talk 4ever but Thank you, Thank you ,Thank you :-)

  • @Exist2Excel this is my issue. I got out years ago, went to school a couple of times, worked a little and have raised my kids. We've pcs'd from here to there. He's deployed now until next year. Our son has autism and is about to start high school, all while hubby is away.

  • WELL SAID, SISTA!

  • I love your videos..You are so right and exact....I am so happy that I found your channel...

  • WELL SAID, SISTA!

  • It's so funny how in sitting here crying about how I let my life get the way it is and you make this video BG you are always ways on time with these videos you truly have a gift and I thank you for sharing it with us God bless you and your family

  • You are so right Goddess, What turns a man on about an independent woman is that she is independent of him. When a man is with an indenpendent woman, he feels as thought he has an equal partner. When she gives up her everyday activities. he slowly begins to view her as less interesting. Instead of thinking that he`s scored a wonderful prize, he now begins to view her as extra weight........ I fully agree GET A LIFE ladies :-) Smooches******

  • You have no idea how anointed you are. I can feel your dad in you.

  • thank u.. u made me cry

  • YES LAWD!!!! My goodness you hit the nail on the head. There are all types of things to get into nowadays... live a full life

  • This is a wonderful message. I, too, had to learn that lesson. I have been married almost 12 years, and I have one son. Initially, it was all about my husband and son, then I started feeling like I was losing myself. I started meeting new friends, and I started a new hobby creating music. My life feels more fulfilling.

  • Thank you BG, I really needed that message.

  • me and my boyfriend had this conversation not to long ago and i didn't take it well because to me it came off offensive the way he worded it but to hear you break it down makes so much sense and the reason i think i took what he said wrong was because i didn't realize that his life had started to become mines and that i honestly had lost myself and didn't know how to get me back...... but newho i love the videos and please keep them coming. :-)

  • ditto to kestend's comment - makeup & hair are fab - you go BG

  • awwww i can see u r sooooo in love when u almost cry saying "u think about how sweet your husband is"

  • Did you just get teary eyed' thinkin about your hubby....hatin i want one..lol

  • I posted this video in my facebook page. Great video you always have such great information.

  • I love marsha ambrosious version. That is my theme song every morning when i get up. I love that song.I love the concept of this video.
