My Cup Runneth Over

My Cup Runneth Over

Life is unpredictable but despite that, you have to remain true to the reflection in the mirror. You have to do what you can live with and what is going to give you true happiness and freedom. Many folks can give advice but they can't truly give it if they haven't experienced it. I do these podcast for all the ones that battle with life adversities alone and are afraid of the judgement of others who live in the same glass house we live in. Mental Freedom can't happen until you free yourself.

Respect Thy Neighbor

Respect Thy Neighbor

This is a candid episode about a behavior that needs to be addressed for many reasons; I am not sorry for stating the facts or my experiences. Sometimes I have to cover some topics that may be uncomfortable for others to address but I find it mandatory if we want to see change for the upcoming generations.

Voting, Voices, & Vigilence

Voting, Voices, & Vigilence

Dinner chat with my family and the difference in my generation and my children's generation. Why it's important to have these open dialogues with our children. We don't always agree but what I am most proud of is our children is that they think on their own; they are well-read and beyond woke-they are willing do to the research themselves. It's one thing my husband and I did right, even if they don't share the exact mind set of ours; each generation should evolve. 

What conversations are you having at your dinner table, with your children. It's the most important time of the day for the family to reconnect and communicate on many topics no subject is off limits.

Perception

Perception

We have all been through a life of caring how we are perceived by others; God knows when I was younger that's what I cared about. It comes a time where the only perception that matters is the reflection you see in the mirror; your truth, no matter how ugly or how beautiful seeing you in the raw. We as humans try our best to show the world our best when really the best gift we can gift ourselves is good-standing in our mental and physical health. At the end of the day, that's how we all learn and grow is by our imperfections and owning our accountability. 

Tune in to this podcast and be open to exploring the raw side of you.

The Greatest Love of All

The Greatest Love of All

This title means more to me then I am willing to share at this moment. Once my book is released it will come around full circle. I haven't taped a podcast in so long I wanted to take this moment of chaos in 2020 to allow myself to uncover some things in myself and in my life that needed my full attention. 

In this episode, I will show you the importance of sitting with the raw you not the one you gloss up in front of others. This is the only way to exploring situations that concerns you that causes to feel depressed or maybe resentful. How many of us are really ready to be vulnerable? In order to truly be free, we have to go to some uncharted territory and during this pandemic, I chose to read and dig deep. 

Knowledge is power and it's so much information out there that you can gather on your own from researchers, statistics, therapists, doctors, and people who have shared in your similar journey. No matter what you are facing you can find answers, if truly want them... all you need to that do is the investigation and apply to your life a little a bit at a time.  

What are you willing to do today to work towards your freedom?  It's only a question you can answer.


Agape Love,

A

Break The Chains & Be the Change

Break The Chains & Be the Change

Gayle King and the backlash of her actions  & Snoop Dog response how "We are the worst" to our own. Does two wrongs make a right aren't we all mourning the death of all these lives that were taken so tragically. As a people as black people why do we find it so hard to stand as one and unite. The youth is watching how we handle adversity they are watching how we treat each other. The most disrespected human on this earth is BLACK WOMEN-Is this what our ancestors sacrificed their lives for. We should all be ashamed. It's time we as black people start having some authentic dialogs amongst ourselves.  "It's time to break the chains and be the change" talk is cheap lets lead with action after we start having this much needed sit downs. This is not about money but about our legacy it's 2020.

Live, Laugh, and spread as much love as you can because it can all change in a blink of an eye.
