FEBRUARY
"SELF-AWARNESS"
Achieving your goals is hard enough. Don't let a lack of Self-Awareness slow down your progress. When you are unwilling to see yourself as you are - shortcomings and all - you set yourself up to fall victim to those exact shortcomings. Develop your ability to be real with yourself and get TF out of your own way, Cutie!
*Our four areas of focus this month will be in these areas of development:
-
Week 1 - Self-Care 101
-
Week 2 - Finances 101
-
Week 3 - Emotional IQ
-
Week 4 - Accountability 101
Self-Care 101
How much downtime do you need to ensure you're refreshed and ready to go when it's time to GO? Do you need 2 pedicures a month or 3? How many hours in your schedule do you need to dedicate to yourself? Finding the answers to these questions is a great way to practice "self-awareness."
Finances 101
Spending money is fun...but it's SO MUCH MORE fun when you spend wisely. Being aware of your spending/saving habits as well as the ideas that you've learned over the years about money will help you provide an ENTIRELY new level of financial security & freedom for yourself.
Emotional Intelligence 101
You don't need to "control" your emotions in order to feel like you are being aware of them. Most times, it's just about "feeling" them and learning from them. It takes courage to feel your feelings because not all of them actually "feel" good. This month, try your best to simply acknowledge what you are feeling. That is a good place to start.
Accountability 101
When you become aware of your own bullshit AND make meaningful change as a result, you are practicing accountability. Make this a normal thing and watch how your life changes for the better.

WHAT IS AN EMOTIONAL GANGSTA?
Emotional Intelligence is Gangsta. That’s what we believe here at Cutie Booty Media. It requires Radical Realness, Bold Rawness, and Courageous Rareness. Why? -Being Real is Gangsta. -Being Raw is Gangsta. -Being Rare is Gangsta. Emotionally Intelligent Women are 'Emotional Gangstas' in our eyes because Emotional regulation isn’t easy. It’s challenging and even more so if you grew up in an unstable environment as a child. This emotion shit can get really real, really quick. You’ve got to stay ready so that you don’t have to get ready. How do you respond to a new Male Boss who is mansplaining rules you’ve been aware of for the last decade? How do you respond to catty comments from your friends co-worker? How do you respond to your Fiance’s daughter challenging you in disrespectful tone in FRONT of your fiance? These situations are TOUGH. It takes an Emotional Gangsta to SUCCESSFULLY navigate the tough and unpredictable terrain of Emotions. This is why we consider them Gangsta. THAT's gangsta to us. This emotion shit can get real tough REAL quick. Any Woman that can navigate herself through emotional triggers, traumas, sexism, racism, and ageism is a Gangsta in our eyes.

REAL
Step ONE:
Emotional analysis
Our emotions give each of us information about ourselves. When you take time to sit with YOUR emotions, you get to learn NEW information about YOURSELF. Information you may not have been 'aware' of before. When you can be 'real' about how you're feeling, you are being 'emotionally intelligent and that intelligence can be used to your benefit. Find out what that benefit is in the next step.
REALNESS TRAINING.
When we talk about 'Realness' we're talking about 'Self-Awareness. In the Merriam-Webster dictionary 'Real' is an adjective and defined as "Behaving or presented in a way that feels true, honest, or familiar and without pretention and without affectation." Pay close attention to the 'without pretention and without affectation.' Do you know what 'Affectation' means? If you don't that's PERFECT! This is the part that matters so much! 'Affectation' is a noun and is defined as "Behavior, speech, or writing that ARTIFICIAL and designed to IMPRESS." The difference is clear but if it isn't we will double down by saying this: we want to help Women first discover how Dope they are THEN begin using what they find to craft their lives. We use real inspiration from real Women to craft our real products due simply to the definitions of these two words.
RAWNESS.
When we talk about 'Rawness' we are talking about 'Emotional Intelligence.' In the Oxford Languages Online Dictionary 'raw' has several definitions but the ones that stand out to us about this adjective are the following two: 1.) (of an emotion or quality) strong and undisguised. 2.) (of a person) new to an activity or job and therefore lacking experience or skill. Again, this word has many definitions but for the purpose of The Cuties we want to focus on the 'strong and undisguised' and 'lacking experience and skill,' parts. A lot of the content we talk about is new for a lot of Women. Women are taught to prioritize everyone else emotionally even to the detriment of our own health. Look, we understand that part of feminism is understanding that is a Woman desires to dedicate her life to her family and prioritize everyone over herself, if that is what she TRULY WANTS we support that wholeheartedly here at Cutie Booty Media, INC! We want Women too choose! That's that 'raw' part! We accept you in your raw, 'undiguised' self! No matter how 'strong' you 'feel' about something we want to support that ESPECIALLY if it's not infringing on the choices of other Cuties! THOSE CHOICES ARE THE BEST CHOICES, CUTIE! The 'rawness' of you...the part of you that you may NOT be familiar with because you got caught up choosing other people when the 'strong' and 'undisguised' you TRULY wanted to develop yourself? That part? That's what 'Raw' is all about. We want Women to get 'raw' and 'undisguised' with themselves about what they want out of their lives so that we're not living someone else's life. When Women pursue their own path and not the path others have laid out before her that is where the 'lacking skills and experience' part comes in. You're courageously chartering unknown territories withint and without yourself. We don't know about you but that's Raw as F*ck!
RARENESS.
When we talk about 'Rareness' we are talking about 'Social Awareness.' In the Oxford Languages Online Dictionary 'rare' has several definitions for this adjective as well and we like them all! 1.) (of an event, situation, or condition) not occuring very often. 2.) (of a thing) not found in large numbers and consequently of intetest or value. 3.) unusually good or remarkable! Yep! We LOVE all those definitions because they pinpoint WHY we put a focus on Rareness in the first place! We KNOW that you are rare but we want YOU TO KNOW that YOU are rare! This is why rareness is so important. Sometimes we fail to see it.
