Seasoned with Salt

Episode 224 – “Friendships in Transition: Grow, Slow, or Go”
On this episode of Seasoned with Salt, we dive deep into the complex, often unspoken journey of friendships during seasons of change. Whether you're stepping into a new job, relationship, city, or calling—some friendships grow with you, others slow down, and some quietly go. Dominique unpacks how to discern the shifts, navigate the grief of transition, and embrace the gift of authentic, evolving connection.

Are you holding onto something that’s already moved on? Or are you missing the miracle of a friendship that’s still growing with you?

Tune in for a transparent conversation about loyalty, release, maturity, and the rhythm of real-life relationships.

On this episode of Seasoned with Salt, I sit down with Christian Eddings, the visionary behind Just Cultured—a reimagined barbershop experience rooted in inclusion, accessibility, and community.

Over a decade ago, Christian, a Black Non-Binary Queer creative, started cutting their own hair to escape the exclusionary norms of traditional barbershops. What started as a personal necessity turned into a movement—a space where people can feel safe, seen, and celebrated.

From Oakland to Sacramento, Just Cultured is more than a barbershop—it’s a cultural hub where haircuts meet healing, and style meets self-expression. We talk about the journey, the challenges, and the impact of creating a space that truly embraces all identities.

Tune in as we explore the power of faith-driven activism and what this means for the future of corporate responsibility.

3 Ways to Deal with a Narcissist and/or Manipulator During the Holidays

In this episode of Seasoned with Salt, we explore practical and faith-based strategies to navigate challenging interactions with narcissistic or manipulative personalities during the holiday season. We discuss the Grey Rock Technique—a proven way to disengage from drama—and offer three actionable tips: setting clear boundaries, staying emotionally neutral, and limiting exposure to maintain peace. Grounded in scriptures like Romans 12:18 and 2 Corinthians 4:8-9, this episode reminds listeners that while we’re called to be peacemakers, we are not victims. Tune in for wisdom, encouragement, and tools to protect your emotional and spiritual well-being during the holidays.

In this episode of Seasoned with Salt, we dive into the powerful truth of Romans 8:30 and how it applies to your life: “Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.”

Many people feel the pressure to seek validation from others—whether it’s approval, favoritism, or a sense of belonging. But relying on man’s qualification can lead to insecurity and disappointment. Instead, we’ll explore how God’s process of predestining, calling, justifying, and glorifying gives you an unshakable advantage.

This episode will empower you to stop seeking human validation and start walking in the confidence that comes from being qualified by God. You’re not just chosen for what’s now—you’re equipped and ready for what’s next.

God can hear what they say about you. He's not phased. Their opinion of you doesn't influence His DIVINE plan for your life. In this episode, we reflect on hearing God over the noise!

In this episode of "Seasoned with Salt," I share the deeply personal journey of discovering my father's identity through Ancestry.com. From learning about the platform from a friend who reconnected with a long-lost sibling, to the anticipation of sending off my DNA kit, I take you through each step of the process. I recount the emotional experience of analyzing the results, navigating a list of relatives, and uncovering the key figure of Luella, my great-grandmother. Join me as I reflect on what this discovery means for my identity, family connections, and the profound impact of understanding my roots.

In this episode of Seasoned with Salt, titled "Too Legit to Quit," we dive into the powerful story of Mephibosheth, a man who experienced life-altering setbacks from the moment of his birth. Dropped as a child and left physically disabled, Mephibosheth's journey seemed destined for obscurity and despair. However, God had a different plan for his life. Through this sermon, we explore how God's grace reaches us in our lowest places and transforms our stories, no matter how broken or forgotten we feel. Mephibosheth’s story reminds us that despite being dropped, overlooked, or written off, we are not disqualified from God's favor. Tune in as we discuss how God's intervention can elevate us from obscurity to prominence, and why, no matter the circumstances, we are "too legit to quit."

Let's finish the year strong!

A revelation God gave me through a dream that is applicable to the season of my life and maybe even yours.

In this special episode of the Seasoned With Salt Podcast titled "Road Work Ahead," I share a personal story about a pivotal lesson from Pastor Dr. Bennie L. Toliver. Early in my ministry, Pastor Toliver taught me the importance of seeing God in everyday occurrences. By using a simple road sign as a metaphor, he showed me how life's ordinary moments can reveal profound spiritual truths that inform our preaching and guide our journey of faith.

#200 Dear Married, divorced, separated, and single people... We need to talk.

Wanna hear my experience with getting closure after a bad season? Here it goes!

Here's a quote from Ellen Goodman.... "There’s a trick to the 'graceful exit.' It begins with the vision to recognize when a job, a life stage, or a relationship is over — and let it go. It means leaving what’s over without denying its validity or its past importance to our lives. It involves a sense of future, a belief that every exit line is an entry, that we are moving up, rather than out."

You can take a step back but course correct. I was slipping! God helped me to see what I couldn't.
