A - All Clear

A – All Clear

This year, let’s focus on gaining clarity in our individual spaces of personal evolution. This evolution can come through education, work, life experiences and your willingness to “level-up”. You must choose to take the journey. Let’s get started and become all we are called to be.

As you begin this year of clarity (#2020clarityyear), keep in mind that how you find success, joy, and prosperity, is up to you. Clarity is more than a word of thought. Clarity has meaning, depth, truth, and wisdom in it for those who diligently seek it.

Take to pen and paper, and let’s think about at least one thing that we will achieve this year. Create a memory that you can hold onto this entire year. You can do this by feeling how you will when you achieve the goal that you are aiming for. Know that it is coming if you are going to work for it.

Be truthful and understand what could physically or mentally block you from “winning”. Put on your strength, because you will have much to overcome. Take courage and be ready to welcome growth and personal evolution. 

 Connect the dots to see things clearly.

All Clear? Ready to evolve? Good deal. 🙂

Fear and struggle reside in the past. Visions, prosperity, and clarity begin now.

Life Evolution(s) Not New Year's Resolutions

Life Evolution(s) Not New Year’s Resolutions

Posted on by KayLa's Positivity Corner by KayLa N. Allen, MPH

As seasons change, so should you.



Personal Evolution Matters
This moment is important as was every moment that came before it. Now is your moment to prepare to reach your next level. Think about the most important goals for you, and be “selfish” about it. It won’t be easy, nor will any of the steps that you take, but you can be sure that building a solid foundation for permanent/life altering evolution will positively impact your life and all around you.

Let’s Change Our Plans
Resolutions set for a new year tend to fade in a short time. It’s time that we shift from that to setting and maintaining a plan for life evolution(s).  

In part, the plans we set in stone become the foundation
 of all that we hope for.



Why Plan?
Plan wisely, make reasonable action steps, and consider why your mission/reaching your goals are important. That which is good and can gift others in the process will flourish even when it comes up against others or negativity. Create and embed your next journey/source of life evolution with compassion, curiosity, eagerness, truth, and the willingness to “fight” for what you want and deserve.

Bible Check-In:
Colossians 3:23-24
Proverbs 14:23



My greatest life evolution(s) have been difficult, but worth it; expect the same and greater for yourself. 2020 will be full of prosperity, and it will be the #2020clarityyear for me. What will your life evolution(s) bring to you?

Be blessed and be at peace.

Z - Zero to Infinity

Z – Zero to Infinity

Posted on by KayLa's Positivity Corner by KayLa N. Allen, MPH
©KayLaN.Allen

All things must start somewhere.

No matter the turmoil of your past, you can start from your own “ground zero”.

Overcoming any situation is only one of the tough parts of evolving. You must also be able to handle any thoughts, consequences, and circumstances that may arise in connection to the past.

All good houses must start with a foundation, so we can treat the next phase of life as the foundation building phase.

In this phase, you must grow and fight the good fight.

No one can jump from phase zero to infinity without a lot of effort in between. Even those who may seem to skip phases must go through times of learning and growth.

To climb a mountain you don’t start at the bottom, blink your eyes, and arrive at the top, right? So, in your life don’t expect things to happen that way either.

Be healthy in your growth. Allow yourself to experience what comes with it.
Treat yourself kindly. This means you have to do what it takes to eliminate doubt, prevent self-destruction, and pace yourself throughout your journey.

Understand and respect that you are nothing like you used to be. People of the past don’t need to “know” the new you. Don’t allow anyone to “make you” become/act like you used to. Don’t go back in time to connect to people or comfortable circumstances; it will only hurt you.

We all have the chance to go from zero to infinity.

Is the journey worth it? What if you put in the work and become successful?
On the other hand, what if you looked back 10 years from now and you weren’t making the progress that you could have been? How would that make you feel?

Dream big, but also take the steps to match up with what you are wanting to experience in the physical realm.

My zero may have been brokenness, trauma, and pain, but my infinity will be true joy, success, and constant evolution.

Habbakuk 2:3
“For the revelation awaits for an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it lingers, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay.”  Your greatness is coming, even though you may not be able to see it yet. Keep working, evolving, and know that you are not alone in your journey. In His timing, things will happen. Be patient.

Psalms 138:8
“The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands.” Isn’t it beautiful to know that God is forever and His love is forever? If you know that He is on your team, you must also know that he will guide you, provide, support, love, and encourage you all the way through if you invite Him in and truly allow Him to do so.

Y-You're Not Always Your Problem

Y-You’re Not Always Your Problem

Posted on by KayLa's Positivity Corner by KayLa N. Allen, MPH
©KayLaN.Allen

We can count on all of our fingers and toes the concerns that we face on any given day.

We sometimes even find that our problems are bigger than us. This isn’t to say that sometimes you aren’t what is blocking your path, though.

Think about how many obstacles get in the way daily. Are they are always easy to solve? Surely not.

Are you always the reason for your problems? No. 

In the grand scheme of things, although we may not be the main source of our problems, we do play a role in them.

You see, doubt, fears, disappointment, anger, frustration, and everything in between get housed internally even if they originate from an outside source.

Take your time to learn that and don’t brush it off; that lesson will change your mood, day, and life.

It may take several adjustments within yourself, but don’t let your problems outweigh your potential.

What if the very thing that we perceive to be a problem is actually a fear that has been overgrown by weeds that we’ve allowed to grow?

You have to work to understand what situations mean. It does not always make sense to go with your gut; sometimes meditating, talking about it, or praying for clarity is a better solution. Sometimes your heart/gut can lead you in the wrong direction, so you need to understand your contribution of the unselfish truth of the matter.

You’re not always your problem, sometimes it’s other’s negativity, fears, doubts, lack of understanding, or some type of internal brokenness. If we don’t understand this, we can easily get hurt by something that should not have had a negative impact, to begin with.

John 16:33
“I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world, you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”  You may sometimes think that you have all of the answers, but you may also be holding the weight of many concerns. Take courage and know that you are not living this life to be in sorrow or disappointment. Our heavenly father bore it all and he will give us perfect peace when we need it most if we seek him first, have faith, and do His will.

Proverbs 12:10
“Anxiety in a man’s heart weighs him down, but a good word makes him glad.” Anxiety is real and can be difficult to manage, but we can do something about it. Learning, love, having healthy conversations, and spiritual guidance can shift things in ways you couldn’t imagine. 

There are things that are greater/bigger than us that could be holding us back from greatness. Let nothing or no one stop you from reaching your destiny.


***Health Spotlight*** 
Yersiniosis
Symptoms: fever and abdominal pain are common; rash and joint pain are possible as well.
Prevalence: thousands are infected every year and children are more infected by adults; the infection is common in the winter
Treatment: antibiotics can be used if necessary.

X - "Ex-" For a Reason

X – “Ex-” For a Reason

Posted on by KayLa's Positivity Corner by KayLa N. Allen, MPH
©KayLaN.Allen

Change requires effort, determination, vision, and honesty.

Change comes at a cost. We never really know how much it will be, but we can rest assured that if something caused us pain or made us feel small or unimportant, the release of it and the value of that release will outweigh whatever the cost is.

Change is necessary. So many people want the successes and like the pictures of luxury living, but don’t understand the required effort or are unwilling to sacrifice and put in the time to make it all happen.

If we take some elements of our lives in the present moment and send it into the past, shouldn’t it stay there?

If you have an “ex-hole” (you can figure out what that means), they need to stay in the past.

When a job no longer serves us, we should make it a mission to not allow it to have any part of our future.

Everything is not meant to follow you into your future.

If this concept is difficult to understand at any point, we need to take a step back and understand the “why”?

To get to a better point in life, we must take in the lessons that we learn from our past and recognize than an “ex” anything is an ex for reason.

Whatever your deep reason for putting things behind you, remember that it is invaluable and you are worth so much better.

Don’t allow past pain, “history”, love, memories, title, or circumstances to hold you back from greatness!

The universe can’t grant us what we want, envision, or having been diligently pushing for if there is something pulling you back or weighing you down.

Don’t take for granted what you have overcome and don’t limit yourself to what you past provided you with.

If something no longer serves you, let it go.

Write a letter to your past, burn it, and let it leave your mind; you deserve that freedom and peace.

Philippians 3:13-14
“Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead. I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.” You have to be willing to let go of the past if you wish to even be able to give a true fight for a better future.

Isaiah 43:18
“Forget the former things: do not dwell on the past.” Completely forgetting the past may be impossible in some circumstances, but you can learn to not allow past concerns to have a place in the present. We have the power to take the reigns and overcome any difficulties that come our way.

No need for theatrics or drama…just move forward and achieve!

***Health Spotlight*** Xerostomia (NIH Ref.)

 Xerostomia (Dry Mouth)

Symptoms (common): sticky/dry mouth, dry throat, or infection in the mouth.
Treatment: medication plus drinking water, chewing sugarless gum, avoiding tobacco and alcohol, good oral care and regular dental check-ups.

W - Wonder

W – Wonder

Posted on by KayLa's Positivity Corner by KayLa N. Allen, MPH
©KayLaN.Allen
Wonder = Surprise + Admiration
Every day we experience this is so many ways. How can we hold onto those tiny moments and find new love in spaces in time?
When we can learn how to hold strong to wonder, we can find new joy and happiness in life.
Moments of wonder that we all experience:
Hearing a baby coo
Witnessing a rainbow
Learning something new
Observing a flower come into full bloom
Seeing a lightning strike in the darkest of nights
Hearing a song and it ignites a fire internally
There are so many moments of wonder that can happen at any moment, even when we’re feeling down or our hearts are breaking.
Just like we can take the time to complete an assignment at school or work, couldn’t we document moments of wonder?
Treat your wonder as an investment in your future. When we save money it is for something greater, so couldn’t life’s wonders be saved in the form of memories, gifts, or blessings for the greater good?
When was the last time that you look into the eyes of a child when they experienced wonder? How did it make you feel?
You can house joy and wonder in your soul and experience it time and time again if you tap into it.
I encourage you to seek wonder every day and enjoy the gift that it is for you.


Wonder is like you closing your eyes, imagining the most beautiful or amazing thing, then opening your eyes and seeing it right in front of you.

Psalms 103:11-12
“For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is His mercy toward them that fear Him. As the east is from the west, so far hath He removed our transgressions from.”  
Do you know how full of wonder God is? When was the last time you REALLY thought about Him? God is a God of wonder and miracles. Isn’t that something powerful enough to hold firm to every day? What if we set a reminder on our phones every day about that? (It’s not a bad idea, I am going to do this myself and you should too!)


Psalms 19:1
“The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” 
There is a sense of wonder in the beauty of God’s creations…all of which constantly surround us. If you ever lose sight or cannot find the truth in His wonders, simply look to the sky.

V - Visions Inside of You

V – Visions Inside of You

Posted on by KayLa's Positivity Corner by KayLa N. Allen, MPH
©KayLaN.Allen

Dreamers dream, creators create, and visionaries light up with joy when seeing their visions inside of their minds.

Do you dream big?  I do!

Do you get happy seeing your visions that blossom with a simple seed of thoughts? I do!
A vision is a flower blossoming from one seed of thought.

Your intellect and your passion will drive your creative car if you are willing to hand over the keys.

You are allowed to dream!
You are allowed to envision yourself as absolutely anything that is amazing to you!

If I listened to laughs, doubts, fears, and other people’s opinions, I would not be in the space that I am in now. (Think about this because it can be the same for you).

When your visions and dreams are big, it is easy for other people to come in and say words that can alter your thinking and your plans. That is your decision and your loss if you choose to do that, but the truth is you don’t have to.

Some of the most difficult and yet vital parts of reaching any level of success or happiness are owning your vision, labeling goals, and creating action steps to make it happen. Take the first step and keep your momentum going; the climb is so valuable!

You must go beyond your thoughts and dreams to lead a successful, purpose-driven life.

If your vision stays in your mind, you not only deprive yourself, you also deprive the intended audience/client of receiving what your greatness has to offer.

Let’s go to the bible:

Acts 18:9
“One night the Lord spoke to Paul in a vision: “Do not be afraid; keep on speaking, do not be silent.”” What if Paul didn’t listen, and he missed the calling for him to speak God’s word? What if you don’t listen? What will happen? What won’t happen? Take heed and let nothing stop your visions from becoming a reality. God is pouring light into you, what are you going to do with it?

1 Corinthians 2:9
“But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him.”. Your vision is great, but God’s is even greater. If you take the steps to maximize your potential, guess what God is going to do for you?! He is going to take it in levels that you never thought were conceivable.


Your hands and your mind hold the key to your future. Get out there and work; no moment of your effort will be in vain. Your vision may be inside of you now, but I firmly believe that you that it will be blossoming from your mind in a way that will bless the world one person at a time.


Verruga Puruana (Cat Scratch Fever)

Be blessed and be at peace.

Remember Life’s Flowers

Today I recovered the memory of the roses.
I still remember the scent, the aura, and the love that they embodied.
Today I recall the beauty of the bloom.
I see the blossoming flowers embracing each day and capturing my heart.
Today I value the story of the image and the flowers.
I recognize what they used to be and cherish the story and lessons of my journey.

Some things you can’t forget. 

I value and remember my life’s flowers.
