So I've been paying a lot closer attention to my body lately. Not in a super dramatic way, but just listening a little more closely. And recently I did a blood panel and I got my results back. Y' all. One of the recommendations that well, first a lot of stuff was very, very good. We're in the green. But there was one recommendation that came up for me and it was iron supplementation, along with a few other nutrients and was a reminder that sometimes what feels like stress or exhaustion actually deserves a little bit of a closer look. Because low iron doesn't always announce itself loudly, it can show up as fatigue that doesn't improve with rest, brain fog, headaches and even brittle nails. Things that are easy to normalize and move past. And for a lot of people, traditional iron supplements aren't the answer because they can be hard to absorb in the body or come with side effects like nausea or constipation. And who got time for that? And that's why I want to share Sitter off from Pharma Neutra. It's a premium iron supplement made with patented Sucrosomio technology, which basically means it's designed to help your body absorb iron three to four times better than standard iron supplements while also being gentle on your stomach. And it's backed by over 20 years of research and more than 150 clinical studies and trusted by over 2 million people worldwide. It's a simple once a day capsule that fits easily into your routine. No complicated timing and no metallic taste. So if you've been feeling a little off or a little tired and haven't quite figured out why, this could honestly be worth learning a little bit more about. So head to pharma neutra-us.com and use code affirmations for 10 off your first order of Citol. That's P H A R M a N U T R a-us.com with promo code Affirmations Sometimes we talk about healing like it's supposed to be quick or easy, but real mental health care takes intention. And honestly, y', all, in 2026, I'm doing all the things that I need to do to healthy, supported and well, even when that means getting help that goes beyond what I'm used to. If you've ever been stuck on a long wait list for a psychiatrist or felt like therapy alone wasn't answering all of your questions, I want to share something with you that could really support you. Talk iatry is a 100% online psychiatry practice that provides comprehensive evaluations, diagnosis and ongoing medication management for things like anxiety, depression, adhd, and more. And that distinction is important. This is psychiatry, not a therapy alone. App therapy is one kind of support, but tochiatry connects you with a licensed psychiatrist, a medical provider who can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication when it's appropriate. Psychiatry has over 600 clinicians and they're in network with major insurers, so you can use your existing insurance instead of paying monthly subscriptions or out of network fees. You'll work with an experienced psychiatrist who takes the time to understand what's going on and builds a treatment plan that actually fits your life. Life Getting started only takes a few minutes. You complete a short online assessment, get matched with clinicians who fit your needs and can schedule your first visit in days, not months. And more than 300,000 patients have already found care through Talkiatry. If this is something that you've been considering for yourself, head to to and complete the short assessment to get matched with an in network psychiatrist in just a few minutes. That's talkiatry.com affirmations to get matched in.

Minutes We've all heard of red flags and even beige flags, but what about green flags? In my early 20s, I was caught up in a cycle of focusing on the negatives, constantly on the lookout for red flags because I was afraid to get hurt and I thought they truly lead me to Mr. Right. But I recently found out that it's the subtle green flags that bring joy, understanding and growth in partnership. What is going on beautiful people?

Let me tell you about the moment that my life truly changed forever. It was the moment that I started taking my sleep health seriously. I realized that my energy and my focus and even my mood were completely off and I hadn't even thought about how much my mattress could be a part of that. And I'll be even more honest with y', all. It wasn't a conscious shift at first. Avocado Green Mattress reached out to me and offered to send me a mattress. So I said of course. But little did I know how much of a game changer it would actually be. Almost immediately, I started to wake up feeling restored, calm and ready for the day, and my mornings actually feel more productive instead of dragging along. Waking up on a mattress that truly supports your body is like giving yourself the daily reset that you always needed. Avocado mattresses are made with certified organic, non toxic materials, so you're sleeping without worrying about harmful chemicals. And their thoughtfully chosen natural materials support deep restorative sleep, which helps your body recover, reset, and start each day fresh. Better sleep really does change the quality of your entire day. I personally feel lighter. I feel calmer and more focused than I ever did before. So, long story short, I wake up with a smile on my face each and every day because of this plush mattress that I have now. If you've been thinking about upgrading your sleep, now's the perfect time because Avocado even offers sleep trials of up to 100 days to make sure that the mattress is actually a good fit for you.

My recommendation of the day for y' all is to get an Amazon prime membership. I know this episode had like a little kind of ad like thing. Like I said, it's not sponsored by Amazon.

I've also created a in the show notes below, you can click on my Amazon storefront and I've saved some of my favorite deals. Now, depending on when you listen into this episode, if it's before July 11th and 12th or if it's on those days, they have different deals that just pop up for the day. So definitely click the link down below and go to the Amazon website and see what daily deals they have. You can save. Like literally. You guys, there's so many deals, like it's actually insane right now. Amazon Echoes are up to 65 off. And I absolutely love my. I have an Amazon Echo show. I have two of the echo dots. I absolutely love them. They literally are my personal assistants. They are so great. And they're 60 up to 65 off right now. There's also deals on TVs, furniture, kitchen appliances, like I said earlier, back to school supplies, like school about to start, trim about to go back to college. All the things get the stuff now while it's on sale. So my personal goal with the Amazon Prime Day is to finish decorating my home. I mentioned this last week, but I just resigned my lease in my apartment. So I signed for two more years and I'm going to be here for two years. So it's time to make this house a home.

Episode: Focusing on Green Flags in Your Romantic Relationship: What are Green Flags? Why Are They Important, If Not MORE IMPORTANT Than Red Flags? Elevating Relationship Positivity and Nurturing Lasting Love. | REWIND
Host: Tyra The Creative
Date: February 2, 2026
In this episode, Tyra The Creative dives into the concept of "green flags" in romantic relationships, highlighting why focusing on positive, healthy relationship indicators can be just as—if not more—important than watching out for red flags. Sharing reflections from her own dating journey, Tyra discusses how green flags nurture relationship growth, joy, and lasting love. This episode, previously exclusive to subscribers, is now available to the full audience and includes a complimentary worksheet to help listeners actively reflect on relationship green flags.
"In my early 20s, I was caught up in a cycle of focusing on the negatives, constantly on the lookout for red flags because I was afraid to get hurt... But I recently found out that it's the subtle green flags that bring joy, understanding, and growth in partnership."
— Tyra (03:33–04:18)
"I trust that I will make good choices in romantic relationships."
— Tyra (05:46)
"Truly envision yourself making these good choices in romantic relationships."
— Tyra (06:45)
Tyra’s message encourages a paradigm shift: focus less on what could go wrong (red flags) and more on what’s already going right (green flags) in relationships. With the affirmation and worksheet, she provides grounding tools for listeners to become more intentional, self-trusting, and celebratory of healthy love.
Note: Non-content segments (advertisements, Amazon Prime recommendations, podcast sign-off) are omitted for clarity and relevance to the core topic.
