Showing Up As Yourself with Tabitha Brown
Vložit

- Have you ever come to a tipping point where you’re who everyone else wants you to be, yet you’re not who you want to be? Have you people-pleased your way up the infamous ladder to nowhere only to realize you’re living a double life that you don’t love? Do you feel like a phony, stuck in your own personality-masking facade, unsure of who you really are anymore?
It’s exhausting!
Tabitha Brown’s story started that way, too. We know her as the friendly and encouraging voice on social media who serves up recipes, laughs, and life lessons, and reminds us to mind our business in the best way. But her journey to get where she is today started 20 years ago. And she didn’t always show up as the Tab we know and love. In this episode, Tabitha Brown shares her story and we chat about showing up for yourself, living in freedom and knowing your assignment!

Crystal is "so good" at asking insightful questions! That's an excellent interviewer!
Thanks for watching!
Listening for a second time… What Tabitha said about “…not even death [can stop what God has planned],” I needed to hear that. Powerful and freeing.
Chrystal is such a kind soul & I love Tabitha. I enjoyed this interview. Acknowledge God in all your ways, and he will direct your path. ❤
Amen 💜💜💜
Awesome I love the interview both great women thank you so much
A duo we didn’t know we needed 🙌🏽 ❤️
Right!!!!!
Oh MY GOODNESS!!! THIS is the PERFECT combination!!!! Tab and Chrystal. I recently ended a book study of Tabitha's book Feeding the Soul. I'm reading it again on my own. There was SO MUCH VALUE I've received. I'm learning to be Chapri!! Thank you, Tabitha Brown. It is a process. I AM GROWING in my Freedom.
Thank you Tab for living in your purpose
Yes, that’s exactly how I am with my daughter who is now 36 with a PhD in psychology. I never told her no she can’t. I just told her go ahead let’s see .
11:31p.m. This was an amazing interview. Chrystal I love your entire family. I almost have an entire library of your fathers DVDs. I’m grateful for the time you took in interviewing Tabitha. One Queen interviewing another. She is spreading the love and yes this world need so much of it. I appreciate the fact that she says that she will not conform. I appreciate the fact that she doesn’t allow the haters to distract her from her calling and I appreciate the fact that she takes her marriage serious. May God continue to bless you both exceedingly abundantly above anything that you can ask or think.
Wow! I feel tears coming on!! 4 min in and what Tab jus said “Lord I want to be who you created me to be”, whew that hit me hard!! That is my earnest prayer!! I know this dialogue is abt to be 🔥. Thank u Crystal for having her!! I’m certain this dialogue will be that of a tremendous blessing to me!!! God’s grace and peace to u all!!🫶🏾💜
I lose myself and me too that woke me!
Thank you ladies.....this was a pleasure. "No" is my new best friend.
SELF-CARE includes feeding/caring for your body, spirit, & soul.
(Reading) the Bible, watching inspirational videos/sermons, & walking is a part of my self-care.
Love that Tab, “Don’r take my kindness for weakness” and I’m no weak woman”.
This felt like a conversation with my sisters❤ lovely👍🏾
Be willing to say no sometimes, especially when you are starting to feel and sense you need to take a rest to rejuvenate away from things that require a lot from you and out if you. It's nothing wrong with pulling back, allowing God to pour back into you or you taking time to catch up with you to be better for the those around you.
Your yes and no is your currency. Use them well. You cannot say yes to every endeavor and you cannot say no to every endeavor expecting to get ahead in life. Balance.
Mrs. Chrystallllllll, such great questions Ma’am!!! And I loved how Mrs. Tabitha addressed that she can be unapologetic NOW because she has paid her dues!!! Wow!! A gem!!! Folks today have sooooo many demands without having gone through anything. Just wow!!
If you're still here you still have work to do.... this morning "if I'm not dead then you're not done". I hear you God. ❤ my testimony
Omgoodness… excellent! Thanks so much for the advice about matching obedience, & with authenticity. Means so much… it just does, especially now. Be Yourself. Be Selfish. Be Clear. Say No… and put God first, In everything. It’s the secret formula.
I already know this is going to be amazing 👏🏾. Getting my ☕ and notepad ready!
I know you and me both❤❤😁
I loved the richness of this conversation with Tabitha Brown and you!!! I enjoy her honesty and how she loves God, family and then others. She filled her cup and then walks in obedience to what God shows her. Such a light in this world!!:)
You guys just blessed me today. Chrystal, you’re such a lovely role model. And Tab you are so loving towards us. Thank you ladies
This was so good! Crystal, you are such a good interviewer!! You ask really insightful questions… I love that with each question you took the opportunity to esteem Tab. I just love your style!
I love me some Tab too😘
“If we are obedient, it just works out so well”. Amen sis!
Tab!!! I went to Target today and got some of your products!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 I love them!! ❤️
I did too! All of the products are wonderful ❤
Me too!!
Imm
"The power of No" and "No is a complete sentence". Amen to that lol
This conversation was a blessing.
BAY-BAY, let me tell you how amazed an excited I am to see Auntie Tab come into HER season... this season and ALLLLL the seasons!!!! 'Cause it's HAPPENING for her RIGHT NOW, and I LOVE to see it!!!!!!!!!
Tabitha Brown is so incredibly beautiful. That spirit causes her physical features to be even more fabulous
Two of my favorite ladies together. I am beside myself!
This was beautiful! Yes thank you Chrystal and Tab for living your purpose out loud. You both are encouraging me to keep going even though I am exhausted. I know I’m due time this will last and all my hard work will pay off. We need more walking examples like this to be guiding light. I appreciate you both.
This was beautiful and authentic! I have great respect for both of you. Ms. Chrystal your interview skills are impeccable. Kudos to you!!! Peace and blessings to you and Ms. Tab.
Thanks for the encouragement!
Chrystal, I love your interviewing style. Your guests are the main focus and not you. You listen actively and respectfully, and you don't interrupt. God bless 🙏
“That ain’t my business”! The realest statement. Great perspective.
Wowwww! “I don’t feel well when I go too long without doing it!” Jesus Tab, you are speaking to my soul!
What a wonderful interview!! I love both of you women of God! Thank you for sharing your lives with us. May God’s Blessings continually be upon you & your families! 🥰🥰🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Can I click like a million times! This resonated with me on sooo many levels! From losing my mom, the values she instilled in me that I am still learning from, deliberately cultivating relationships whether for love, friendship, and showing up for yourself and in spaces the way God intended. It’s ok to be selfless, selfish, and say No in order to show up as your best self! Whew lots to meditate on. May God continue to bless you both ❤
Tabitha Brown is amazing! Outstanding interview! 👏👏 Thank you Chrystal!
Thanks for the encouragement!
@@ChrystalHurst, You're welcome!
Hearing from God comes through having a personal relationship with him. We must put God first in EVERYTHING that we do and be obedient to his word.
Chrystal Evans,
You are a great interviewer. I enjoyed the content....
Thank you!
This has been my favorite Tabitha Brown interview so far; amazing and potent interviewing skills!
Thank you both for your obedience unto God! May the Lord continue ordering your steps, blessing, keeping, guiding you and your families. Tabatha, amen to non-conformity! I wholeheartedly agree; "To Thine Own Self Be True." Your authenticity speaks volumes to us. I am so amazed and inspired. With Godly Sisterly Love, Rena Maldonado
Goodness.. Took me nearly 10 minutes to realize this is who my granddaughter asks to watch.
Great conversation! I love the segment where Tabitha shares about self care. That is so important. I am older than you ladies and I think I am finally able to be a little selfish. I taught for over 20 years. My daughter graduated from high school. Then, about a year later I became my grandson 's guardian. Even though I am a stroke survivor, I am writing, creating content on WordPress and CZcams. I have decided to do the things I enjoy doing. Thanks for sharing this conversation with us!
Great interview! There is an entire generation of children, teenagers and young adults being taught / choked, that wearing braids , Afros and natural hair is not good, and they won’t get get jobs and be free. This is part of the news in the Caribbean. In order for these young people to get jobs and move up in “ colonial society “, they need to act “right/ white”.
We need messages like this loud and clear and other Black/ Brown / Asian and others discriminated against, support each other.
Also, white is a color. Italians, British, Irish and other Europeans are the root of racism.
It’s not a white man or a white Karen who are racist. It’s an Italian and Portuguese cop or a Jewish, Irish Karen.
Also, when we travel to these countries as tourists and spend our money we support their behavior . When we purchase their products we are in agreement.
The change is only up to us.
So many of us have been fortunate to have great mothers🎉❤
Thank you Chrystal for sharing this with the world. Thank you Tab for being the sunshine we need to see.
Gdm. Yes & amen to that. 👍🏾😀
This was so well spoken and needed to be heard. We as people or humans need to be ourselves instead of trying to be someone else's version in life. I think every young teen around the world need to hear this msg/ interview this definitely something to ponder on. People usually people please and don't even know who they are even when we are trying to find out in our youth. Crystal and Tabitha thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences as a person and a Christian.
I’ve seen many interviewers interview Tabitha Brown and this one is my favorite. I would love to be interviewed by Crystal. Well done!!
Love both ladies Chrystal is a talented interviewer ❤
Thanks for watching!
That was so incredibly amazing, inspiring, and consuming all at the same time. I have just started a CZcams channel along similar lines and was watching one of my first videos to see where I could improve, and your video came up next. As daft as it may seem, I felt like the two of you were talking directly to me. Like God was talking through you. The entire interview I kept being absolutely flabbergasted. Thank you so much. I have no doubt that this is the path I need to be on, but after watching your inspiring interview I feel like God has sent confirmation. 🙏 ❤
This interview was giving all that it was purposed to do and more. Kudos to you Ms Chrystal for an awesome job in directing and asking all the right things. I love Tabitha Brown. She is the epitome of everything God is and more. A true star shining bright. My soul was blessed. Thank you both. May God continue to bless you both.
Thanks for your encouragement!
I loved this interview. Also, regarding "being selfish", even Jesus took time for himself. He arose up early, got in a boat and row away from the crowds/disciples to pray.
Very true ;)
Just so Joyous watching u Ladies Speak with the Purpose of Discovery. As I have Always said, in order to Walk Differently in this Life, u r going to need to Change ur Stride. It is good and God is so Pleased when he Creates another Masterpiece. Both of u Ladies r just that. Thank u so much for sharing, I appreciate All the Joy!
Beautiful interview!! I love both of these ladies and may God continue to bless both of their ministries ❤🙏🏾
It’s so funny that Tab was on Chrystal’s list of people to have on her show. I have a podcast called “Sweet Mother” where I interview women about the lives and legacies of their late mothers. BOTH of these women are on my wish list of people to interview for my show because they talk so frequently and so openly about the impact their mothers made on their lives and the big hole left by their passing. In fact, when my mother passed from cancer in 2021, I listened to so much of what Crystal and her siblings shared on CZcams about the passing of their own mother from cancer two years prior. Sharing their experiences helped me immensely in my own time of grief and loss.
I love this! Speaking things into existence and God will say yes! Can’t wait to hear their interview. I just found your podcast and now you gained a new listener. Blessings to you!
@@tanettacaleb7767 awww, thank you so much! That's so encouraging.🥰🙏
TAB THANK YOU FOR BEING OBEDIENT TO THE MOST MOST HIGH YAH AND NOT ONLY SHOWING UP AND BEING YOUR AUTHENTIC SELF BUT FOR SHARING YOUR YAH GIVEN SELF WITH ME...WITH US...@ 64 YOU.VALIDATED WHAT YAH HAS BEEN TELLING ME ALL OF MY LIFE TO STOP FEARING AND ALLOW HIM TO ALSO GLORLY HIMSELF THROGH ME STOP HIDING MY LIGHT AND SHINE.........
The warmth between you too is like a soft honey to me.
Chrystal's profound questions were just excatly what I needed to hear!
Thanks for watching!
Peace and Blessings! Chrystal is my first time seeing your channel, oh my you're gifted by God! Such an amazing interview, thought provoking questions and equally amazing responses by Tabitha Brown! Your interview style allowed us to see Tab in additional beautiful ways. Thank you for walking in your purpose, may God continue to bless you abundantly!

Awesome awesome Interview!!! There is something about a Powerful, Uplifting interview with 2 Strong, Beautiful African American Queens.
Thank you to both Chrystal and Tabitha!! You positively touch, encourage, and change more lives than you will ever know!! God's Blessings over both of you and your families!!🙏🏽❤🙌🏽💯🥰🙌🏽🙏🏽
This video kept showing up in my feed. I’m so glad I finally took the time to watch. Thank you ladies, this was right on time. ❤
Yes! I met her in NC on October 1, 2022 and it’s a day I’ll ALWAYS remember and hold those memories dear to my heart. She is a beautiful soul indeed. Meeting her in person was EVERYTHING!💛
I was so excited to see this episode!!! Crystal your words are so edifying and honest! I appreciate your transparency and have followed your family’s ministry for years. LOVE THE KINGDOM book series.
Tabitha- I LOVE HER AND my heart swells with joy for her SUCCESS👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I agree wholeheartedly with her statement about having gone through tough times. When you have survived some really tough stuff, you develop a righteousness indignation that some stuff- you just “ain’t gon go through again”. PERIOD!
We are looking at Gods grace manifested in a Women Mrs. Tabitha Brown peace and blessings yall.
Thank you Crystal and Tab!! Tab thank you for showing us how not to be afraid to be ourselves!! One day I hope to be free to be me!🙏🏽👏🏽💃🏽
So grateful to both of you. This interview fed my soul. God bless!
Thank you, Chrystal and Tabitha for this amazing conversation. There were so many instances where something was confirmed or where I was reminded, especially about God’s love and His approach in leading us to and through His will. May God continue to bless you both. 🙏🏽💕
Wow!!!! Chrystal, You did the thing!!! What a awesome. Insightful, transparent, uplifting interview!!! Tab, I love you and your infectious, love filled being!!! Thank the both of you for sharing these pearls of wisdom!!!
I really agree with people being afraid to bring their faith with them in certain spaces. I think it’s a conditioning from the experience like Tab mentioned in school, work, etc… the limitations as she says, conditions us molds us to be whatever makes others comfortable instead of being true to ourselves and allowing others to do the same.
Excellent ❤️ TAB Reveal!!.
.Loved this Introsoective....
Such Positive Encouragement ☺️ to Live Our Complete Assignment....without Fear..💝.
Phenomenal interview! I strongly feel Tabitha is a gift from God and a spiritual messenger for those in need 🙌🏾🙏🏾
Time for your self allows you to clear your mind, have a clearer vision of things that are going on around you.and when you show up you have a level of peace and rest in your soul so you I believe can handle whatever it brings.
Thank you Chrystal and Tabitha for all your continued encouragement and your positive spiritual love that you spread! God bless you both 😊
Great interview I love your line of questions and I love the answers she provided us.
Wow “show up for you first “🙏🏾 Speak Tab
Greensboro here 🙋🏾♀️ hey auntie Tab❤️
Jack fruit was one of the first foods I saw Tabitha show that I had never seen before, love it
I clicked on this video to watch Tabitha. And like I expected, she was great! However what I didn't expect, was to find such a good interviewer! Crystal, your questions were on point. Your composer was so calm, welcoming and at the same time real. Even though I came for Tabitha, I'm happy I left with Crystal too lol. You have a new subscriber here :) Keep up the good work!
Hey! I’ve seen so many of Tabitha’s interviews…but Mrs Chrystal, your questions were so intuitive….you were pulling out so many nuggets from her and I feel full! Wonderful interview, wonderful Spirit…Love you both! Keep on keeping on! ❤🙏🏽 Blessings
Thank you for watching!
I just love these 2 women of God. I could listen to them all day.
Love love LOVE THIS ! You both are two of my favorites and I hope and pray to meet both of you one day. Thank you for the continuous encouragement and motivation to go forward and be the best version of ourselves. ❤❤❤
This was so helpful and I realized I’m not being selfish. It’s something that’s needed so I can give the best version of me
This is right on time for me. I’m in the season of raising 3 teenagers 2 of them are girls this was really encouraging for me. I love what Tab said trust that you raised them right. I really enjoyed this interview it really blessed me. Thank you Chrystal for having Tab.
I thank you beautiful ladies, I felt like I was on E yesterday I felt empty and like I didn't have a purpose, but I told myself regardless off my thought that I was still here! So, I Thank you ladies for my conformation of choosing to still be here and I do have a purpose because I said God didn't bring me this far to not complete my Joney and to continue to trust him.
Chrystal you guided our siStar Tab to every answer my soul was thirsting for. This part right here though! 3:31 Just glad I hadn’t applied my mascara yet! Thank you for surrendering to each step of the journey that made sharing this conversation a reality! ✨
Dang u listen and hear what they say your soul can b uplift. Enjoy both of these powerful sisters
I SAW TAB AND SHOUTED! You had her on your wish list! God is good!! So glad this finally happened!
Thanks for this show and sharing important insights. I can relate. I was tired of code switching and trying to fit in boxes I wasn't designed for. Thank God for the encouragement to be my authentic self. Chats like this are so inspiring. 🧡🙏🏼
I love the real in this conversation! I'm just now at 64 showing up ME! And it feels good!!! It's never too late!
This interview blessed me so much! Chrystal, thank you asking such powerful questions. Tabitha, thank you for your yes, and for being all of you!
THAT WAS GREAT INTERVIEW. SHE NEED TO TEACH PEOPLE . AND WE ALL LOVE MRS TAB .
I love this. I got y'all on and playing while I work out and I totally feel like I'm in the circle with y'all...but I had to pause my workout to say: as a black nurse at a prestigious hospital another nurse told me that wearing a matching hoodie to my uniform was 'unprofessional'. (This was during the Trayvon Martin time.) However, it was totally ok for others to wear neon pink and electric green thongs that come out or show through their uniforms while working. Me being totally modest got slammed for having a respectful appearance in the workplace. I rolled my eyes and took a mental note. Now, years later my company sells monogrammed sweatshirts with hoods. I kept showing up as me anyway. I guess it wasn't so unprofessional after all.
Her book is amazing & it truly touched my soul!!
I can't wait to get my copy 💜💜💜
These are some of the best interview questions I’ve ever heard asked. Wonderful job, you gained a new subscriber with this one. ❤
Welcome!
I been waiting for this moment. Thank you for sharing
Timely encouraging interview Thank you ladies🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Loved this!!
Thank you both!
