You never know what you don't know until you need to know it. Now, I know and will never forget. 🤏🏾

[Dr. K @DrKaylaHarris]

STILL thanking God for protecting me from ALMOST making one of the biggest mistakes of my life! 🙌🏾

Grateful for everything I have going on right now...couldn't have seen today, back then!

In 2026, normalize not watching or listening to content creators or commentators that you disdain, don't understand, or don't want to understand for your own commentary and content creation.

In 2026, heal and move forward. 💪🏾

[Dr. K @DrKaylaHarris]

Thankful for all of my clients in this season!!!

NOTE: 2026 is going to CONTINUE to be amazing!

Let's put in this work! 💪🏾

I know someone with a similar (though not exact) thought process and personality, albeit more covert, to S. Combs.

They'd never admit to this. But...from a psychological perspective, there's an inexplicable resemblance.

Lying does actually have consequences.

When one lies, it does actually result in consequences.

Lying doesn't necessitate grace.

Imperfection doesn't mitigate the requirement to not lie.

Being a liar who lies...even by omission...still equates to being untrustworthy. 💯

Lessons from Mary Kay Ash, the greatest saleswoman in history:

1. Golden Rule Leadership: The Golden Rule is one of the world’s oldest and best-known philosophies, yet it’s frequently overlooked in business circles. Mary Kay proved this rule is still powerful in today’s complicated world.

2. You Build with People: Leaders are dependent upon the performance of their people, and so is a company’s success. Good people are a company’s most important asset. People are more important than the plan.

3. The Invisible Sign: Everyone has an invisible sign hanging from their neck saying, “MAKE ME FEEL IMPORTANT!” Never forget this message when working with people.

4. Praise People to Success: Each of us craves recognition. Let people know you appreciate their performance, and they’ll respond by doing even better. Recognition is the most powerful of all motivating techniques.

5. The Art of Listening: Good leaders are good listeners. God gave us two ears and only one mouth, so we should listen twice as much as we speak. When you listen, the benefit is twofold: you receive necessary information, and you make the other person feel important.

6. Sandwich Every Bit of Criticism Between Two Heavy Layers of Praise: Sometimes it’s necessary to let somebody know you’re unhappy with their performance. But direct your criticism at the act, not the person. Criticize effectively in a positive way so you don’t destroy morale. (Shane's note, I actually don't agree with this. I've never met a high performer that needs this or wants it.)

7. Be a Follow-Through Person: Be the kind of person who can always be counted on to do what you say you’ll do. Only a small percentage of people possess follow-through ability, and they’re held in high esteem by all. It’s particularly important for your team to know you possess this rare quality and to think of you as totally reliable.

8. Enthusiasm Moves Mountains: Nothing great is ever achieved without enthusiasm. Leaders are enthusiastic, and enthusiasm is contagious. Interestingly, the word enthusiasm has a Greek origin, meaning “God within.”

9. The Speed of the Leader Is the Speed of the Gang: You must set the pace for your people. Real leaders aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty. They set examples by demonstrating good work habits, displaying positive attitudes, and possessing team spirit. True leaders establish success patterns that make everyone think of success.

10. People Will Support That Which They Help to Create: Invite people to participate in new projects that are still in the “thinking” stage. By confiding in associates and seeking their opinions, you generate support at the initial stage of each new venture. People often resist change when they don’t participate in the decision-making process. Some of the best leaders “plant the seed” that permits others to propose the idea and take credit for it.

11. An Open-Door Philosophy: At Mary Kay corporate headquarters, there are no titles on executives’ doors, and there’s ready access to all management levels. Everyone within the company, from mailroom clerk to chairman of the board, is a human being and is treated accordingly.

12. Help Other People Get What They Want—and You’ll Get What You Want: As the parable of the talents tells us, we’re meant to use and increase whatever God has given us. And when we do, we shall be given more.

13. Stick to Your Principles: Everything is subject to change except one’s principles. Never, absolutely never, compromise your principles.

14. A Matter of Pride: Everyone within an organization should have a sense of pride in their work. They should also feel proud to be associated with the company. It’s a manager’s job to instill this feeling and promote this attitude among their people.

15. You Can’t Rest on Your Laurels: Nothing wilts faster than a laurel rested upon. Every person should have a lifetime self-improvement program. In today’s fast-paced world, you can’t stand still. You either go forward or backward.

16. Be a Risk-Taker: You must encourage people to take risks. Let them know that “nobody wins ’em all.” If you come down on them too hard for losing, they’ll stop sticking their necks out.

17. Work and Enjoy It: It’s okay to have fun while you work. Good managers encourage a sense of humor. In fact, the more enjoyment people derive from their work, the better they will produce.

18. Nothing Happens Until Somebody Sells Something: Every organization has something to “sell,” and every person in the company must realize that nothing happens until somebody sells something. Accordingly, they should be fully supportive of the selling effort.

19. Never Hide Behind Policy or Pomposity: Never say, “That’s against company policy” unless you have a good explanation to back up the policy. It infuriates people. It’s as if you were saying, “We do it this way because it’s the way we’ve always done it.” By the same token, pomposity can also be a transparent cover-up for incompetence.

20. Be a Problem-Solver: The best leaders recognize when a real problem exists and know how to take action to solve it. You must develop the ability to know the difference between a real problem and an imaginary one.

21. Less Stress: Stress stifles productivity. Leaders strive to create a stress-free work environment for their employees through both physical and psychological approaches.

22. Develop People from Within: The best-run companies develop their own managers from within. They rarely seek outsiders. In fact, it’s a sign of weakness when a company goes outside too often for management personnel. The morale of the company is likely to suffer. People may begin to feel threatened and think, “No matter how well I perform, an outsider will probably get the position I want.”

23. Live by the Golden Rule On and Off the Job: Don’t be a hypocrite. Live every day of the week as if it were Sunday. There’s no place for two sets of moral codes. Conduct yourself in business with the same scruples you would want your children to observe in their lives.

I hate liars.

Omission of significant details = lying.

Withholding the truth = lying.

Attempting to avoid conflict by not disclosing = lying.

Lying = liar.

How much of your life have your lost being miserable or stuck in the past?!

During this holiday season, I hope that everyone would choose to heal (or to continue to heal) and grow forward.

Grace and peace. 🙏🏾

A final thought: whatever you are going to believe in....choose it and stand te. Toes down.

Now is not the time to be subpar, lukewarm, or neutral on your beliefs and values.

Stand firm or fall for anything. Either way, choose ye this day Who & What you will serve. 🫡

[Dr. K @DrKaylaHarris]

When you live authentically (and w/ Christ), there's NO OTHER comparable sign of FREEDOM. 🙌🏾

I'm beyond grateful for every trial AND every triumph. I'm even more grateful for not getting what I so foolishly deserve.

I'm just trying to figure it out...& do it all, righteously🙏🏾

[Dr. K @DrKaylaHarris]

“The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever leans on, trusts in, and puts his confidence in the Lord is safe and set on high.”
Proverbs 29:25 AMPC

I'm doing all I can to ensure the life I live publicly is aligned with and similar to the life I live privately. 🙏🏾

[Dr. K @DrKaylaHarris]

Every moment, I'm able to recognize what happened...acknowledge my part...and live to see and fight for another moment.

One bad decision or choice isn't life ending. Hek, a series of poor choices or decisions that don't result in death means I still have another opp to live. 🤷🏾‍♀️

[Dr. K @DrKaylaHarris]

I'm grateful to have all of those.

I sleep well and show up fully on a daily basis....knowing Who I serve and that Who I serve is Ultimately in full control.

Plus, I trust more in my ability to bounce back than the likelihood of getting it wrong. 🤷🏾‍♀️

[Dr. K @DrKaylaHarris]

You can demonstrate toxic empathy and/or toxic parasitism and/or something else.

Key game changers: (1) Surrendering your life to Christ (for real); (2) Humble introspection along with TAKING ACTION FOR REAL RESOLVE AND RECOMPENSE; (3) Community that tells you the WHOLE TRUTH🙏🏾

[Dr. K @DrKaylaHarris]

You may not meet full criteria; however, your attachment style, unhealed trauma, and spiritual foundation or lack thereof can seemingly mimic a specific personality disorder, personality trait(s), combination of mental health issues, etc.

[Dr. K @DrKaylaHarris]

Nature and nurture play nuanced roles in personality development.

[Dr. K @DrKaylaHarris]

You can have tendencies and character traits without meeting full criteria for a particular diagnosis....especially regarding personality disorders.
