THE RISE OF ANGEL REESE

THE RISE OF ANGEL REESE

The NCAA women's championship and its winners have been the subject of recent controversy that has caught my attention. I was particularly upset by the harassment directed towards LSU's superstar Angel Reese, but I was also inspired by the way she refused to let it dim her light and instead shine boldly. As a result, she will be the focus of today's episode.

Whether you are aware of us or not, Afro Latinos exist.

Whether you are aware of us or not, Afro Latinos exist.

More than 6 centuries  ago the world raised in evil. The land shower in blood and the ocean fed on the lifeless bodies  of our ancestors to create for free what today we call our “working society.  With the cruelty of the white man our skin was scattered around the world, diluted so many times to the point that today we can barely recognize each other. 

But we’re still here, our brothers and sisters now are accustomed to regions and temperatures they never shouldn’t be in the first place. More than 600 years  ago evil arrived in terrorizing ships full of pain and suffer to Latino America to conquer what wasn’t theirs in the first place. History is brutal like the African  Sabana but is history and we must share the truth.
On todays episode Afro Latinos even you agree or not we exist.

How Far Are You Willing to go to Achieve Financial Freedom

How Far Are You Willing to go to Achieve Financial Freedom

In a world with high levels of stress, judgment and the pressure of social media, to achieve the “scrolling down” reality that in most cases is already altered by photoshop or the gleams of a life someone is trying to portray to you; the after-taste of this never-ending pressure at times forces you to acquire a competitive vein that will guide you to do whatever to achieve the better version of whatever life you aspire to achieve.

On that note, a simple question comes in to play. On today’s episode “How far will you go to achieve your financial freedom?”

How Freaky is Freaky

How Freaky is Freaky

There are boundaries in everyone’s lives. Sometimes our moral compass comes in between achieving all of our personal fantasies, whatever they might be. When it comes to people, the big question is “what is freaky?” and how “freaky is freaky?”

Ultimately, how are we as humans able to achieve these personal fantasies while maintaining our sanity?

Like the lyrics of Nelly’s song “It’s Getting Hot in Here”, we take the temperature up a few notches and discuss on today’s episode how freaky is freaky.

Introverts vs. Extroverts: Are we ready for each other?

Introverts vs. Extroverts: Are we ready for each other?

The first official, random sample by the Myers-Briggs organization showed introverts made up 50.7% and extroverts 49.3% of the United States general population. With such a close percentage breakdown of introverts and extroverts, will that allow me to correctly assume we are used to dealing with each other’s energy in a comfortable manner?

IOWA: I’m ready for you! Are you ready for me?!

IOWA: I’m ready for you! Are you ready for me?!

We often shelter ourselves under norms, awakenings and the so called “culture agenda” by repeating ourselves with mantras like “love is love”, “no judgment” and “we love everybody”. All of this while keeping ourselves within ratios of our own comfort zone without challenging ourselves to environments completely aside from whatever we are accustomed to. Moreover, we claim to understand mentalities or ways of lives we never dare to go near.

For the past 4 years, I have personally struggled with acceptance of any political ideology that was slightly inclined to anything I didn’t agreed with in larges scales. Examples of such include canceling any propaganda or political agenda that resembles any sort of those ideologies that I am inclusive of (persons, ideologies and places, etc.). However, in the last year I have found myself challenging those urges and exploring further reasoning with those who think different than me.

Since one of the biggest challenges I have in life revolves around differing political views, I took it upon myself to discuss the topic in one of the states that perceivably resembles minor  ideologies I believe in. This is all a part of a greater effort to further continue proving the honesty of my very personal journey, and to eliminate and challenge anything that is actively attacking my mental evolution and growth.

On today’s episode you will have the opportunity to hear from me, a very dark immigrant with broken English, a huge personality, a self-called Liberal, very Democrat, anti-Trump agenda and ideologies, reflecting on my experiences from a recent visit to one of the most remotes parts of the USA. If everything I have heard regarding these pockets of the country are true, I want to challenge them and find out more while staring them in the face.

IOWA: I’m ready for you! Are you ready for me?!
