Welcome to Be less Petty TV, I'm Kellye Howard and this is my channel/vlog. I am a very open, vulnerable, and honest person. My goal is to bring awareness, positive energy, and creativity to various topics such as: parenting, living with a chronic illness, and overcoming extreme loss. Life can seem too big to digest, but in my view, life is just clusters of petty issues appearing bigger than they are. Perception is key on Be less Petty TV and as I learn and try new things or reconsider old things, I am hoping there's some take-aways for YOU too. Enjoy! 😊 So today I am sharing my list of 39 intentions for the next 365 days, which started this past Sept 29th, on my 39th birthday. I don't know about y'all but I don't think I've ever really lived from a place of intention. I've kind fo always just one with the flow and keep moving because I assumed this is how you get ahead. My new found theory is that "getting ahead" means creating the life you want to live, from our core desires, and if we don't know what those desires are...then we have to discover them. 39 list of INTENTIONS/GOALS for the next 365 DAYS: 9/29/21: 1.DRINK MORE WATER (One full bottle minimum) 2.Chant vigorously w/ intent - 30min minimum (2x Daily). 3.Learn Gongyo 4.Exercise 4x per week (Yoga/Bike/Strength) Measure end goal 50 Push-Ups 5.Learn about about Elephants or owls 6.Learn the guitar basics 7.Learn the name/mystical energies of my crystals. 8.Learn the name of the plants in our home. 9.Learn the basics of playing chess. 10.Learn to make DELICIOUS anti-inflammatory cookies. 11.Listen to understand.

What is up my less Petty Pals. In this video I share with you how to create healthy boundaries and get the respect you deserve around those boundaries. Spoiler alert. You may never get that respect but this is okay. Setting boundaries only require that YOU continue to respect those boundaries. It is uber important that we prioritize ourselves in our lives, and this is the only way others will do the same. Unhealthy relationships consist of others constantly putting THEIR expectations onto us, and this can break us down and make us lose our way. Our life becomes more about what THEY want versus what WE want. This video I share 5 GREAT tips on how to maintain healthy boundaries in your life. I'd love to hear if you have some others in the comments below. Be well and stay safe, and ALWAYS Be less Petty! xox Kellye _________________________________________________________________________ Welcome to Be less Petty TV, I'm Kellye Howard and this is my channel.

What is up my less Petty pals; In this video as part 2 of my skydiving experience. I share with you a very valuable lesson I discovered WHILE looking for something else. I jumped out of that plane wanting a revelation and though that's not what I found at the time...I did uncover something even more valuable. Check out my skydiving video here: https://youtu.be/KWNtRalU3mE And please comment with any of your own experiences around fear and doubt. I'd love to hear. I don't think any fears are unique. We all have them. They may be different but not unique per se. Hope you'll enjoy this video, what I learned and maybe you'll learn something too. 🤷🏾‍♀️🤞🏾 Thanks for watching. Stay Safe. Stay Healthy.

Hey less Petty Pals As we gear up for the holiday season, there's no doubt we may be faced with adverse mindsets around family members. There are so many things we can do to keep these tensions at bay, and it all starts with SELF. In this video I am sharing the importance of SELF-CARE, and why having a self-care routine will help you deal with those petty ass family members that just don't get why you want more out of your life. Maybe they themselves are stuck in old petty ways of thinking and they really want out and can't understand how you're able to do it. No matter the reason, we must be the change we want to see in the world. And this starts by not feeding into the petty frenzies and aligning ourselves with what we truly desire to feel and be at all times. So worry not my friend, you may have petty family members but you, yourself don't need to be petty too. The entire month of November I will be sharing tips on dealing with petty family and uneasy conversations. We will discuss boundaries, learning to say nothing and why saying nothing is actually very powerful. If you have any specific concerns you'd like to address with family please email me at: family(@)belesspetty(dot)com. I will try and include any request in coming videos. PRIORITIZE YOUR SELF-CARE, love up on yourself and know that you are not alone in this journey. And remember to always Be less Petty! xox Kellye IG: @kellyehoward/ @belesspetty #selfcare #belesspetty #selfworth #selflove #familyvalues #familydrama (http://www.youtube.com/user/CHUKImusic) (Beat made by Chuki Beats) __________________________________________________________________________ Welcome to Be less Petty TV, I'm Kellye Howard and this is my channel.

Being cheated on isn't a coincidence.. Likes oops that happen. Okay maybe the first time but when we continue to be cheated on in multiple relationships. This says a LOT about how we see ourselves. Our patterns of emotions and experiences are clear signs of what our inner most thoughts are about ourselves. If we are being mistreated it's because at some point in our lives we started to identify with the emotions that come along with mistreatment. We got comfortable with them, and then convinced ourselves it's what we deserve. This is the further thing from the truth. We are all worthy of deep love and healthy relationships; but first WE MUST know this for ourselves. I love you. Be well. And always Be less Petty. xoxo Kellye. DIG DEEP. FIND PEACE. It's there.
