Chapter 1: What mindset does Crystal share in this episode?
Calling all my sweeties to the forefront. I'm your host, Chris Renee Hazlett, and this is the Keep It Positive Sweetie Show. Hello and welcome to this episode of the Keep It Positive Sweeties Show, a safe space to heal, laugh, grow, and love.

I even broke the fourth wall and included some of my crew. So let's have a good time. I hope you guys enjoy this one.
all right guys so i'm gonna do something different on this episode i'm gonna be answering a few questions that will also bring you into my mindset and how i think about things the first one is delulu or manifestation hmm the power of dreaming big i can definitely tend to be a little delulu i remember like growing up and my mom would always say oh my goodness you are literally
the biggest risk taker of the family. And I think it got me to where I am today because I see no bounds to how far I can go. Some of the craziest things I did growing up, I remember when I was in Washington, D.C., working on Capitol Hill, I drove from D.C. to New York to audition for Diddy's assistant. Yeah, it was crazy.
Because I wanted to be a singer, I wanted to be an entertainer, and I was like, okay, what's the best way to go about this? I've always, even from back then, I've always been a firm believer of putting yourself around what you want to do so that you can learn from all aspects of that space. And that was one of the craziest things I did. I clearly didn't get it. And then...
I remember another time when I was working on Capitol Hill in D.C. that this is when then Senator Obama was running for his first term in presidency and his one of his I don't know if he's a legislative correspondent or But he worked in Senator Obama's office at the time.
And he was like, hey, Crystal, he was like, Senator Obama is running for president and we have some paid positions to come work on the campaign. Would you want to come do it? And I'm like, heck, yeah. And he was like, all right. So I call my parents. I'm like, hey, guys, I'm going to quit my job and I'm going to go work on the Obama campaign. And my parents are like, you are crazy.
And I was like, no, I really think he's going to win. My parents were like, I don't know, you know, because we had never seen it. You know, and this is no slight to them. Like nobody ever thought that we would have a black president. You know, we were hopeful that we would have one.
But at that moment, they really weren't sure that it was smart for me to quit my job to go work on a campaign for someone who I could possibly not have a job after that moment. Needless to say. I was right. They were wrong. No, but he won. And after that, they were like, you know what? We're not going to tell you what you can and cannot do. Just go for it.

Chapter 2: How does Crystal define delulu versus manifestation?
I'm very hard. I'm harder than hard right now.
harder than hard soft like me I want that soft yes but do you feel like that's something that we as women have to really kind of take control of even if we don't have a man that can make our lives easier because I think a lot of times we like think that somebody else has to come in and do that is that something that we can like implement into our own lives or do you think it's just easier when you have somebody to kind of land on well I think
I'm a little different from you because when you are a single parent, you're forced to be a little harder. Doing things yourself and stuff like that versus being single. Being single, you could kind of do more of the soft life. But as a parent and an entrepreneur and a working mom and the go, got to do everything, it's kind of hard.
Yeah, I can see that. It's kind of hard. I didn't think about it from that perspective. Yeah, because I don't have any kids, so I don't really have anything else.
Yeah, so your soft life, you're going to get your facials.
Yeah, get a little side.
You're going to go to Pilates. You're like, girl, what Pilates? Why are you going to Pilates? I'm dropping kids off at school.
Right, yeah.
But there is a balance that you can do when you have a lot of things going on. I fit in my Pilates. I fit in going to work out. I fit in my facials. But then... an hour later, I'm back to the hard life again.

Chapter 3: What experiences shaped Crystal's belief in dreaming big?
She said, yeah. My friends are calling me like, girl, let's go do brunch. Girl, I don't feel like it. Let that bed call.
Let me get my boots on. I'm on the way.
Put something together.
Yes.
I love Pikachu.
It is. Yeah. Yeah. And I mean, I think that to like finding the balance of like prioritizing your time with everybody, you know, so that you don't neglect people. But also since you're not neglecting yourself because there's weeks where I like, oh, my goodness, I have literally like said yes to everybody every day of the week. And by Saturday, it's like, I'm so tired.
I just wish I had said no to one of these things.
You get emotionally drained.
Yes. Oh, yeah. My battery. ain't never full. So by the time, like my drainage is like fast. It's like, you know how your computer, when it gets like older or your phone, you can't hold a charge. I'm there. Like that thing, it ain't holding a charge. I get out, I go out and I'm like, y'all ready to go? Chris, we just got here. I'm ready.
