Minding my own Mind

In this episode I speak with Relationship Enthusiast Shani L. Farmer about the importance of being intentional when dating. We go through how to gain clarity and use that to go after what you are looking for. I loved this conversation with Shani and will definitely be having her back on the podcast again in the future!

Shani L. is a Relationship Enthusiast dedicated to helping women align their relationship goals with their values and long-term vision for their life. She is an advocate for building healthy relationships and uses kingdom principals to educate women on navigating love in a culturally diverse society. Her affection towards healthy relationships is no fad. Her love for deep dialogue, femininity and chivalrous men began early in her youth, but not without the many lessons that often comes with it; a broken heart, infidelity, and lack of godly love and respect are just a few behaviors she endured throughout her journey. After accepting her own vigorous maturation process, Shani L. became a woman on a mission; her ultimate desire was to redefine love for self and to understand what it truly means to date with purpose.

Shani teaches women to forgive and be healed from your past, date with purpose and attract a quality partner, take practical steps toward activating their purpose , deepen their relationship with God and hold themselves accountable to being the best version of themselves.

In this episode where we dive deep into the power of setting standards in your life. Do you ever find yourself disappointed or frustrated by the behavior of those around you? Do you struggle to reconcile the gap between who you want someone to be and who they actually are?

In this episode, we explore the notion that people are not inconsistent, but rather consistently showing us who they are. The real inconsistency lies in our own expectations and the way we perceive others through that lens. By setting clear and intentional standards for ourselves and others, we can create more fulfilling relationships and lives.

Join us as we delve into the importance of understanding and communicating our own standards, recognizing and respecting the standards of others, and ultimately finding peace in accepting people for who they are, rather than who we want them to be. This is a must-listen for anyone looking to improve their relationships and live a more intentional life.

This episode was inspired by my episode, 19- Meeting People Where They're at.

Ignorance is no longer bliss. 

In this episode I address what can be otherwise referred to as the possible extinction of mankind. The planet will stick around, but will we? We have been warned for years but the point of no return is quickly approaching and now is our time do decide whether we will do something about it or not. It sounds urgent because it is. I admit to my previous apathy, how I have decided to wake up and why you should too. I don't have all the answers, or even very many. So, I ask you to care and go find some of your own.

Code RED. Its an emergency.
