Speaking Frankly

This week's episode dives into the latest celebrity scandal and salacious gossip that Jada Pickett Smith shares in her new memoir titled Worthy. I get Shady J on the line to discuss celebrity culture, the not so glamorous life of people pretending on social media, dating scandals, and how there seems to be an epidemic of people feeling unworthy these days. I think people are getting lost on-line and need to get back to Source. We talk about how to stay afloat in a world so focused on fame, fortune, and foolishness. We all are ENOUGH without any of the extras!

Submissive is a harsh word! In this episode Shady J and I break down and decode what submissive truly means. This buzz word has gotten out of hand! You don't have to be turned into a robot and change your true nature as a strong woman to be reduced and labeled "submissive" in order to honor and respect your man. We believe that what most men want in their partners is not only love, but most importantly honor and R.E.S.P.E.C.T.!  Take it from some O.G.'s who have over 50 years of combined experience in marriage.
