Joy Wasted with KB Dickey

Let me tell you something real quick: I don’t just survive in hostile environments — I prosper. I don’t shrink, I don’t fold, and I don’t ask for permission to shine. I walk in rooms where the energy is off, and I still radiate light. Why? Because my seat at the table was carved out by divine design, and baby, this chair? It’s custom-built. Only I can sit in it.

1. Know Who You Are — Loudly

When the environment is negative, the first thing it tries to do is make you question your worth. Don’t let it. You have to walk in with your head high and your spirit louder. You’re not here to blend in — you’re here to shift the atmosphere. Your presence is power. Your voice is value. Your vision is valid.

2. Protect Your Peace Like It’s Gold

Hostile spaces will try to drain you. That’s why you need boundaries like Fort Knox. Not everyone deserves access to your energy. Learn to say “no” without guilt and “yes” to yourself more often. Your peace is your power source — guard it.

3. Let the Work Speak — Then Speak Louder

You don’t have to argue with folks who underestimate you. Let your excellence do the talking. Deliver results so undeniable that even your haters have to clap. And when it’s time to speak up, don’t whisper. Say it with your chest.

4. Build While They Watch

They might be watching to see you fail — let them. Because while they’re watching, you’re building. You’re growing. You’re winning. And when the feast is ready, you’re going to eat in front of every single one of them. Not out of spite — but out of proof. Proof that you were never meant to be average. I could NEVER be that, not this kingdom citizen of God.

5. Remember: You’re the Table

You don’t just have a seat at the table — you ARE the table. You bring the strategy, the flavor, the fire. You’re not waiting for validation. again that’s for parking. You’re not asking for a handout. You’re here to dominate, and you’re doing it with grace, grit, and a little glitter.

So keep showing up. Keep glowing up. Keep winning. Be Glowtastic! Because no matter how hostile the environment, you were built to thrive. And when it’s all said and done, you’ll be sitting pretty — feasting in front of your enemies, wearing a crown they swore you’d never earn.
