2 Sense

Episode 268 How We Assume S***Sensers! How many times have we thought we had the story straight when it comes to an assumption only to learn that we were not even close to the truth of the matter? How hard is it to ask directly to the person we make the assumption about, what we really want to know from them? Why is it so difficult to even be that direct for some of us? I believe we live in a spiritual existence where we feel people's energy everywhere we go. When negative personalities tend to come around us we often feel a pull that's draining as fuck until they leave the area we're in. How do you manage the energy that you allow in your presence? How do you feel when people leave from you? Are you drained or do you feel energize after the encounter? Mary J Blige once said “all I really want is to be happy in a dope song, but in reality life isn't that simple to me when it comes to happiness. I believe some of us have been looking at this concept of happiness in a seemingly impossible fashion. I want to dive into my perspective on what it means to be happy.May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this.

Episode 267 How We Learn From OthersSensers! I believe there's so many people that we meet in life as well as so many cultures and customs we come across.  I also believe the various cutlures provide many ways for us to learn from the differences in which we come from in families and other forms of social groups.  Ask yourself, what's something that you've learned from other cultures outside of your own?“If you can change one thing, then you change everything”, I believe most of us have heard this when it comes to things we would change about our past. However, looking back at how our lives went, what is something that you would have actually changed?  There's much ground to go over in our minds when it comes to that, but what would you do?Expressing yourself in a perfect world seems so simple to accomplish, but in reality we all have dealt with the fears that our own worlds have put on us causing us to not say what we actually feel for fear of rejection or possibly that we might just get what we ask for emotionally.  Telling how you feel to someone who feels they don't deserve love causing them to retort to old habits of chasing what does not love them.  Confusing and frustrating one can be from experiencing such, but that's humans in short. Let's talk about vulnerability.May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this. If you dig the episode, click, like, and share on your page.

Episode 266 How A Man Gets InspiredSensers! Love is in the air…especially this week for obvious reasons. I ask myself, do I see love the same way I did when I was growing up compared to various stages in life including present day? What makes it change? How does it affect you through those changes?Black History Month is here! Grateful to be black, but even more to be inspired by a few people throughout life. Be my parents, my pastor, or even the entertainers I looked up to while I was trying to figure out life. Many names, many people that fit the bill for this topic. Allow me to share those who inspired me.We all have things we like to do daily to keep us going strong in our path. I have a plan of attack to use for making myself better each day, at least mentally. Something that gets me going, even on the worst days. Let's talk about it!

Sensers!On that first date, what was it that the person did to make you not want to see them again? What ticks you off when it comes to people on a date? Too talkative? Too quiet? Red Lipstick?

Episode 265 How 2 Get a Man SprungSensers! I believe there is a time and moment in a man's life where something just stands out to him and a feeling aligns up so well that it causes him to feel that he's so caught up, enamored, dare we sprung with the energy that person of interest radiates towards him. He becomes drawn to this human being so much that even thinking is a challenge in a sense that the person they feel for becomes a healthy distraction on how they see life. What does it take to become that light in a person's eyes? From my conception to present day, there's been many things said on what it is to date a woman (girl in adolescence years) that would deem to be successful with them. Most of it has been proven to not be successful and misguided information which led to break-ups and misfortune with women. However, there's one that stands out to me more than the others that I'd love to share with my fellow man (ladies can listen in on it as well). So what's all this really about? By this, we're talking about life. There's millionaires with enough money to not be concerned about their health, their house or even their family yet somehow many with that privilege are still finding themselves unfulfilled, unhappy and even suicidal. If that's the case, then what does life really mean for you? What's the point of you getting up everyday? what's your Why? Why do we love this thing called life before we ascend to the next phase?

Episode 264 How A Man Appreciates Sensers! Sometimes our view of love can come with a bit of pain. Strangely enough looking back, it actually good to feel, maybe not at the time because I didn't get what I wanted but certainly came with a rush from the experience. There's a few different “pains” I can think of when I look at what I been through. So on social media, there's so much being said regarding the manosphere, masculinity, the manoswamp and terms related to such. I believe there's a lot of things said that's nonsensical and made to be get views by stirring up someone who is easily offended by opposing views. All in all, it's something that makes for an interesting discussion. Appreciation goes a long way with communication in my opinion. People have various ways to show such appreciation. Some more verbal than others and some more physical than others. Overall, being able to show gratitude for other's kindness can go a long way in life but definitely in business.

Episode 263 How 2 B Bad at Something Sensers! A lot of times we can be very surface with our conversations with peers, but what about when we want to dig a little deeper…What does one talk about when they want to go beneath the surface? What do you find to be meaningful in conversation?So we all have something that we can use some practice or time and effort in doing to become more efficient at it; What's your poison? What's something you're horrible at doing, but you still want to try it out each time? I believe unconditional love starts with you, the person before you can offer it to anyone else. However, some of us have a tendency to overly critical on ourselves that cause us to be down at times. Some parts of us that we haven't quite figured out how to accept. What's yours?

Episode 262 How Mistakes Teach LessonsSensers! 2026 is in full swing and we're still cranking out the conversations to spark debate in our minds. So we all make mistakes, but some of us learn from them and then others we take the same test until we pass it. What mistake did you learn the most from? Do you ever get pissed off at something? What method do you use to bring yourself back to a calm state? I've tried a few different techniques but one has stood the test of time for me in the last few years. Let's talk about it….We meet people all the time in our daily lives. We pick up on a few things as we meet these individuals, but what's the first thing that you see when you come across a person? One thing I can share is that energy won't ever lie to you. May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this.

Episode 261How The Past Shapes UsSensers! First show of the new year so let's get right into it; grateful to make it to 40 in one piece and life has taught me so much through trial and error. Some things I wanted to happen and some things I tried to avoid happening. One thing for sure is that life will life. The universe has a way of showing you that God has the wheel for life. All we can do is accept it as it comes in combination with our goals and decisions we make. However, I wanted to touch on a few things I realized along the way. Fight is essential for survival in this world, but knowing when to fight is the key. Some fight to prove themselves to others, some to fight to fight, some fight for the money, some fight for their own minds. What fight is worth it to you? What's the good fight in your mind? “Break up…to make up that's all we do.” Plenty of relationships I've encountered in life, all came to teach me something about life and most importantly myself. We all made our share of mistakes and we made some memories along the way. Through it all, grateful for the lessons not losses. May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this.

Episode 260How We Reflect on 2025?Sensers! I intended to put this out before the New Year rang in but fuck it, Happy New Year for those who value it, otherwise welcome back Sensers!So those who follow the content, we love to discuss ways of being manly/masculine etc. but there's another side to this; I want to touch on the things that we as man are still trying to figure out successfully or things some of us just don't know in general yet how to do. No shame in it, just a map of construction for us to tackle on being the best versions of ourselves.2025, here and gone, but I took some time to discuss how the year went for me. I trust that you each of reading this had your fair share of challenges throughout the year, I'm grateful that we can still tell the story here in 2026.

Episode 259How We Feel Disrespected Sensers! Have you ever just felt in your mind whether it was justified or not that you were unworthy? So when those thoughts arise, how do you go about handling them as they occur? Do we go to vices? Do we sit with those thoughts? Do we project onto those around us? What gets the happy feeling going inside you? When life gets challenging as we know it to be a constant battle, what do you do to generate the happy chemicals inside your mind to shift your mood in an upward spiral? Is it a song? Is it a touch? Is it a thought? Is it an accomplishment? Fellas, have you ever been in a toxic situation with a woman and found yourself tolerating behavior you wouldn't want to see your son or father face? How did you handle that level of disrespect? How much of the disrespect did you enable for it to prolong as long as it did in your life? What do you do when you feel that you've been disrespected by a woman? May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this.

Episode 258How 2 B IndifferentSensers! Safe to say a lot of shit bothers us to the point we have to defend or feel the need to say something on a particular matter if it interferes with what we believe about the subject. Some of us also tend to let pettiness eat at our minds and we want to do something about it in our own way; be it retaliation or vengeance towards our deemed enemies. What would happen if we remained indifferent on things sent to get a reaction out of us? Rarely do you hear a man complain about not getting enough gifts for Christmas from families and those we love. How important are gifts to a man on the holidays? I tend to believe that the gift is being able to give gifts for those that we value. I want to talk about gifts and how me as a man deals with the holiday season when it comes to gifts.Christmas time is here and what does that feel like to you today? I can tell you growing up Christmas was an event, all the activities and actions leading up to December 25th. Constant pestering parents for the latest toy on market I saw on a commercial, trying to keep up with my classmates in fashion, or listening to my parents' favorite Christmas albums in the car. I'd like to take you back to that Christmas feeling we once shared as kids with this topic. May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this.

Episode 257How We Re-Parent OurselvesSensers! So there's cliche statement that some women of today love to utter…”once I meet a man who is masculine then I'll show my feminine/softer side of my personality” or some shit like that. Granted we as a society hear this but what is the actual possibility of this coming true to life? Believe it or not, I believe that it can happen. Let's talk about it!So if you were ever born on this earth in America, there's a strong chance that you had some form of trauma, however, after a certain point…blaming your parents/family for it becomes outdated and then accountability for rehabilitation comes into play. So what are you going to do to aide in your own healing? Yes you are not responsible for what happened to you, but we can agree that we are responsible for how we interpret the pain, our thoughts on the action, and how we're going to over come this.“Love conquers all…” One would love to believe this statement from fairy tales and Disney stories but I believe it's not that simple. Those of us who have been around you humans for sometime learn that it takes more than love to make a relationship, be with a mate, family, or friend to last the test of time.

Episode 256 How a Man RepelsSensers! Surprises…and by surpirise simply meaning shit that comes up in our lives that we didn't necessarily anticipate becoming an adult. I think its dope if some of us were able to achieve the goals we set for ourselves prior to becoming an adult….BUT for some of us, we had to respond to the Draw Four Card we were dealt when life Life'd the shit out of us. Many failures towards success and a story to tell in the process.What does life mean to you? Something we ask ourselves in our head probably when inebriated but a legitimate question to ponder on as we go through each day. What gives life meaning for me? Does it have to have a meaning at all? I firmly believe in my life's meaning with the way things have transpired over the course of it to present day.I am obviously not a woman to truly say what's deemed attractive and or unattractive but I have my strong convictions on the trials and errors I've committed in my dating experiences that I believe some ladies would agree. Fellas, know the difference between a woman who loves versus a woman who's attracted to you, it doesn't equal out at all times. Let's talk about what I mean by this bold statement.May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this.

Episode 255 How a Man Finds HomeSensers! Do you remember being a kid and they asked us “so what do you want to be when you grow up?”? We all had our dreams, maybe even focused goals even from that young age, but were those job goals more of a fantasy such as entertainment or more following in footsteps of someone you looked up to like a parent or someone close to you?Throughout our lives we've obtained a plethora of skills to aid us through the day to day challenges we encounter. Of those skills, which would you say is the most useful skill that you have? What's something that really helped you in common engagements with your peers throughout life? “Home is where the heart is…” so the cliche statement says. I believe home can be many things to a person. There are places that feel like home and there are people who feel like home. I've been grateful enough to have both at different stages throughout my life.

Episode 254 How We Find JoySensers! I a firm believer that we have at least one song that we can identify with the emotion behind the record. The artist and songwriter knew exactly what to say to get to your current situation through Melody and lyrics. Many songs have identified with what I was going through at that particular time and held a close connection to me each time I would hear them. I share a few of those records in this topic. What things take you back to that childhood joyous feeling we once had? I was a major music head and loved a dope music video to go along with it to give my imagination some confirmation of the song I was playing often in my room. I also loved to get lost in the world of wrestling (“wrasslin” let my Pop tell it). Whether it was Hogan, Sting, Yokozuna, Ric Flair…the list goes on, but come Saturday and Sunday in the 90s, we were glued to the set to see WCW Saturday night main event and all American wrestling on USA. These are some of the joys of childhood that I would like to share with you. So…what do you think about a woman who sets the date with the person of interest? Is it customary to do so for you? Do you prefer the woman to make the plans? Does that constitute as her leading to you? All in all, it's perspective to me, but I believe it makes a great talking point for the Sensers!

Episode 253How Men Balance FrameSensers! Love stories…stories of passion…heartbreak and going after the girl like in the movies. I certainly had my own experiences with that ideology at one point in my life. Happily ever after and all that would come with it. Interesting how life goes as it wants versus what your expectations had lined up for yourself. All in all…it was all part of the process to present day. What a story to tell. I've have two on this subject of chasing love.The challenges of working on your masculine daily do not come easy all the time. It's something that takes focus and attention to catching yourself revert back to old ways that once served you and choosing a more mature response to certain behaviors sent to knock you off your square. I'd like to share a few of the challenges associated with balancing between honing you frame and responding to negativity. We all wear masks of some sort and it doesn't make you inauthentic for doing so in my perspective but it does mean that we reserve a side of us which may be a bit more comfortable with certain personalities versus sharing with the world our gifts. There was a time when I really did fake a lot of shit for survival with people but to recognize that allowed me to focus on not carrying myself as that toxic people pleaser but now learning to utilize the many hats/roles that one has when engaging with my peers. But are we afraid to be who we are with those we socialize with on a daily basis? Let's talk about it…May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this.

Episode 252How We See PurposeSensers! I look at life with each day we get to wake up as an opportunity to learn from all else that has occurred leading up to the present moment. Some lessons take longer than others it seems. Then there are moments that truly surprise you about your own abilities. The mind is a constant enigma. The age old question…”what makes you feel like a man?” For some of us, it's not the obvious or as simple as stereotypes make it out to be. What makes you feel like a man fellas? My answer was more complex than the stereotypical shit that's said about a man feeling like a man. Check it out! Everyone has a purpose….or do we?

Sensers!"Dress for the job you want..." "Dress for success...", common phrases when it comes to fashion. Who knew that fashion could dictate how people treat you with respect in this life? Throughout life, my fashion went through many phases and of those phases, I've noticed that when I put effort into the attire and it matching the venue for the particular event, I was treated differently, with more value than when I just threw some shit together. It's interesting to see the difference up close and personal, I want to talk about what I've learned.

Episode 251How Men Read MindsSensers! So I been working since I was 16 years old starting at McDonald's on western branch blvd and throughout my career leading to my current profession, there's been a common issue that tends to plague a work environment from my perspective…communication. The assumptions, the delivery, the lack of communicating vital information to get the objective completed. I'd like to touch on some experiences with communication.We have a tendency to believe that those who “really love us” can read our minds (toxic thinking). Assumptions fuck us more often than not when it comes to communication, we can run away a scenario in our mind of how something was suppose to be then when it doesn't we find ourselves upset at the people who had no idea what our needs were. However for this topic, I'm speaking on the women who do such behavior.So…chemistry or compatibility? Which is more important? One can go back and forth on the subject, I believe both have their place. Obtaining both chemistry and compatibility can be a challenge for some of us.

Episode 250How a Man Bears His MasksSensers! Let's be honest with ourselves, we all have worn or currently wear masks depending on the environment we're in. I know for sure that I wore masks in the past for fear of acceptance/rejection thus a people pleasing mask. However, there's many more masks that can be considered. Let's talk about it.Growing up in Suffolk, Hampton roads area in general, I learned that there were many people who I admired in music and sports that came from our area. A lot of them were very inspiring to the school days version of me. The Neptunes, Clipse, Tim & Missy, Allen Iverson and a few others. They had their influence on me as well as those of us who were in school around that time. The jerseys, the lyrics, the fashion…you name it we wanted to emulate our favorite stars. If you're like me, healthy confrontation is a learned skill and as of recent at that. I don't believe I ever handled much conflict in a healthy manner, either ran from it or leaned into it too strong with aggression. Finding the balance has been a challenge throughout life. I want to talk about how I learned to deal with confrontation on this topic. May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this.

Episode 249How Men Influence BoysSensers! Growing up, some of us had someone or something to look up to. If you were fortunate, some of them just so happened to be in your family. I was blessed to have a few that I looked up to in my family. Outside of my own parents and their influences on me in many ways, I wanted to highlight two of those people and their impact on my life coming up as well as an adult. I believe it's easier to take the test once you've seen the answers and if I was more confident lookin back at teenage years there's many things that would be changed in my life growing up. Of course, if you change one thing you change everything, but let's just entertain the topic any way. So a fire breaks out and the only thing you can save is one item…what would it be? For me, it would be something near and dear to my life the last 5 years. Check out what I chose as my item to save, more content on the way! May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this.

Episode 248How A Man Airs Himself OutSensers! We were kids once and we all had our childhood aspirations and dreams at one point in time. Do you still have the same dreams from then? I had to sit with myself and ask…what are my childhood desires and do I still desire them? Pop star? NBA? Men and our egos…yes we have them and rightfully so for many damn reasons but the question begs as to why? Why are you prideful? Some of these answers may be deeper than we realize. I won't speak for all men but I have some perspectives to share that may help you understand as to why we do. So the birthday was much appreciated this year, many blessings with the tribe that showed up. Lots of laughs, male bonding, food, sports, and living in the present moment with those you value. I send a big shout out to everyone who came through for the 40th, your contribution will forever be cherished. I want to talk about this experience.

Episode 247How 2 Suppress DopamineSensers! In the age of social media, I believe we keep our phones and other technological devices close by and the screen exposure can be quite excessive to the point where we get overstimulated by too much dopamine. Other forms of stimulation can be just as effective in causing the brain to be overworked such as adding so much on the plate trying to do it all at once. Let's talk about how we can manage that a bit. For those of us who live alone, there are so many perks to having such peace…but what about the other side of the game? Just as there are pros to living by yourself, there's certainly some cons to doing so. What could they be? No one to bing a series with? No one to taste the soup (where's the spoon, ah ha!)? Or what about just mere presence of another soul? Check out what I speak on in this topic .If you watch the news and social media enough, it'll consume you into thinking that we are just a hateful collection of people. I beg to differ, yes there are people who really are filled with rage and love to watch the world burn…but I also believe that there are those who are tired of fighting that shit and just want to be at peace with themselves let alone life as we know it. So how does one overcome the current state of hateful rhetoric that's being pumped into our minds through social media programming and other forms of propaganda where divide and conquer is beneficial to a ghost we are not able to see? Let's discuss. May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this. If you dig the episode, click, like, and share on your page. Help build the tribe of healing

Episode 246How 2 Learn From The Years Sensers! So turning 40 is a landmark moment if you value that, but as a topic I wanted to shed light on some of the things I've learned throughout that time and perhaps it benefits you. I find that the years seem to have gone by pretty fast for me getting to this point. I'm grateful for everyone's role past and present who's been along for some of the moments. Being a content creator, sometimes your perspective may trigger someone, it may be misinterpreted, or try to hack the narrative that you share. What I find to be important and mindful is that you're responsible for what you say now how someone interpreted it. It has nothing to do with you especially when you're focus on the path of healing. Many will project their own thoughts and feelings onto you, but stand firm in your mindset to share your perspective. I want to share how I manage those moments when being misunderstood by another human.If you were born human, more than likely you've experienced some form of trauma in life. It may not have been referred to as trauma at the time, but as we get more educated on the concept of mental health and trauma's effects on the brain I believe we can recognize it, embrace the emotions which come about from it and work towards learning to heal from it the best that we can. I look back at what I perceive that I went through and looking at it in a positive light just as much as the negative emotion as to how it made me more aware of my surroundings. May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this.

Episode 245How 2 C The BSSensers! Who grew up in a family that taught healthy boundaries? Smart money says not many of us but we could have used those to ensure we didn't hang around those who took advantage of us or just plain didn't value us. Now the question begs, what makes someone want to be around people who don't value them versus staying to self in peace? Let's talk about a few perspectives concerning the topic. When we first meet someone who we vibe with, we often meet their representative and everything seems like it's “perfect”, but what happens when the honeymoon phase is over? Then again, does it have to? How does one keep the honeymoon phase? Is it all just a fantasy in the mind? We all have wanted some form of success at some point in our lives. How would you recognize a person destined for success? What does success look like to you?  I believe success is all about the perspective of the person seeking it. Let's talk about it a bit. May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this. If you dig the episode, click, like, and share on your page.

How A Man Ignores SignsSensers! Fellas, how many times did you overlook some traits in a woman that would got you caught up in something detrimental to your life in the long run? How many times have we asked ourselves, how could I have missed the signs that could have saved me time and trauma to just focus on my purpose? It happens to us all and nothing to be ashamed of. Live and learn from the decisions we made when we didn't know any better. I want to touch on a few signs that I would learn from my own personal experiences with the women of my journey. I believe we all have our quirks about us when we get home from the hustle. I enjoy getting to the couch to just reflect on the day and what it taught me. Almost like a ritual to just sit down and take in the moment. A little bit of music and meditation goes a long way for me. As you get older and get into the work force, you find yourself working so much to provide for yourself as well as your family you can forget to just…be. Sometimes it seems as if time slips away from you and before you know it, you don't get to spend much time with the ones you love. Time is something that keeps going no matter what we're working on in life. You don't know the last time you'll see someone or hear their voice. Sometimes you just wish you had more time for them. May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this.

Sensers!I trust that all of us have had some people in our lives who left a profound impact on us as we were going through adolescence. Some of those people were teachers and I had the privilege of having some scholars who were able to help shape me into the man that I would become after graduation. Some tools and tips that still stay with me as I try to figure out this life shit with the rest of you humans.

Sensers,This quickies segment centers around the term happiness and what it looks like it in the long-term scheme of things. I believe happiness means differently depending on the person and their idea of what it looks like. Throughout my life, happiness has meant many things, but I I took a stab at what long term happiness would look like for me.For delicious bakery from Sassy Crumbs Sweets follow below at this link:Facebook:   / sassy-crumbs-100095186473492  Instagram:   / sassycrumbssweets  Follow Ask Rome SeriesFacebook: Facebook.com/askromeyoutubeseriesTikTok: @askromeyoutubeseriesInstagram: @askromeyoutubeseries Twitter: @askromeyoutube#askromeyoutubeseries #youtube #tiktok #MentalHealth #jacksonville #podcast #florida #trending #viral #followme #masculinity #betamales #blackexcellence #romeymak #2sense #miami #duval #suffolkva #spirituality #femininity #redflags #baldmenaresexy #beardgang #love #relationships #sex #menwholead #women #family #healing #trends #brotherhood #masculinity#thefouragreements #florida #virginia #southflorida #christmas #2025 #manhood #depression #visionboards #mantalk #health #sigmamales #living #existing. #success #beliefs #brain #parenting #assumptions #complaints #depression #testimony #innerchild #selfcare #communication #satisfaction #msindependent #television #beliefs #givingup #compliments

Episode 243How 2 Redirect LifeSensers! One of the most common topics that comes up in the manosphere…what traits about a woman makes her a compliment to a man of purpose? This one can be talked about for days on end, but I wanted to share my own thoughts on what makes a woman a compliment to the life I'm working towards on a day to day basis. Granted it's not everything listed in this show, but I believe it would do both men and women a perspective to take into consideration as we all figure out how to master the balance between each other. Looking back at the past and the mistakes as well as accomplishments earned, would you want your kid(s) to follow that same path as you? I'd say some I would want them to follow and other parts I wish they would learn sooner than I did for their own mental health's sake. Learn from others' mistakes such as us as parents and do your best to make your own mark on this earth while you're still here. “Im done with this shit!” How many times have we felt or actually went through with quitting something we were involved in because it became overwhelming to us? I been battling this throughout the journey of life and I believe that talking it out makes it easier to digest in the mind. Some days you just want to say fuck everything and run away. I believe it's all part of the journey of overcoming your own mind. May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this.

Episode 242How 2 QuestionSensers! We've all gone through s*** and pondered how did I make it over that hurdle? It felt like the end was coming for us, but somehow you made it through and still here to tell the story. Amazing what you can overcome when it's the only option available for us. Strength is there if you allow the Universe to have its way inside you. I believe adversity doesn't stand a chance by what God can do.To be or not to be…that is the question. Actually there's many questions we can ask ourselves on a daily basis. Things we don't think about often until we make take a moment to pause and reflect on our lives. What questions would you consider us to ask one another?“How come I showed up for them but they hardly show up for me?” I know a few of us have felt this before. How does it shape your mind when you feel the love to put forth doesn't seem to be remotely the same in return. Maybe it's about how we're looking at the situation itself. Did we do what we did for a return (conditional) or did we do it out of unconditional love? Something for all of us to think about.

Episode 241How We Embrace Differences?Sensers! How do you embrace different beliefs within your tribe? What if your best friend just converted to Islam and you're a Christian? How do you handle when you learn your parent supports a presidential candidate who you don't agree with? Do these things get you to not want to interact with them anymore? I believe it's illogical to thinkThat with so many people on this earth for all of us to have the same beliefs, but when we are faced with those beliefs within our friend group and family, how does one make the relationship work? “She got her own thing…that's why I love her.” - Neyo. The independent woman, nothing more sexy to me than a woman who is not codependent and knows how to take care of herself. The other side of that is when some independent women get involved with men, they can neglect to turn off some of that masculine energy to allow a worthy man to utilize his part of using his masculine energy in creating the attractive balance between them in their dynamic. If you're like me, I spent a great deal of my childhood in front of the television watching various programs. Many sitcoms with different messages projected onto the audience with of course a comedy take. I used to look forward to getting out of school to go home and play video games until dinner time and watch TGIF with my family. A few of those shows had some impactful scenes that would make you reflect at yourself. I want to talk about a few of those moments on this final topic.

Episode 240How Women Question Men?Sensers! It's never good enough! I'm not good enough! A few things the ego will sometimes convince us when engaging with other humans on this planet. However, I have a question from family back home in Virginia on the topic of why are men never satisfied? Broad but a loaded question that I can make an attempt to answer to give another perspective of understanding. “I can't live without you!” “I'm lost without you by my side.” “You are without a doubt the best thing that's ever happened to me.” This all sounds magical but fantasy has a tendency to create illusions in the minds of those who love to hear sweet nothings even if it's not how the person truly feels. Some of us are just in love with love itself. Why would someone say I'm the best for them then leave to be with someone else? Peep my stance on this topic.“Why yall men don't know how to communicate? If I had a jersey on I bet you know what to say to me .” I believe communication is very essential in maintaining a healthy relationship regardless if it's intimate, platonic, work etc.  I don't necessarily believe that men struggle to communicate, I believe they struggle to communicate…with you. Now, that's not to take personal but to take notes as to why that is. Some of us are willing to talk regardless of the audience, while others must feel safe enough to do so.

Episode 239How We Embrace Our PastSensers! Relationships come and go, but what about your actions and contributions are you not so proud of looking back? I've had some time since the last one I entered years ago and I find growth in looking at your part in the destruction of those relationships. Love conquers all right? I also have a bridge in Jacksonville to sell you. I just believe there's more to it than the dream we were sold growing up through the Matrix. I believe in love just not how it was presented to me. There's more to being a man when it comes to being respected in a place where love is given.  I believe in the notion that we ignore red flags when we have a crush on someone. We all have ignored some draining shit when dealing with a person we were attracted to. Attraction can be interesting at times. I've grown to learn from some of the mistakes that led me to toxic personalities and finding peace in my life. It's on-going but staying the course as I gMay God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this. If you dig the episode, click, like, and share on your page.

Episode 238How 2 See Through The Bulls***Sensers! I believe we all face a constant with our inner child on a daily basis whether we take notice to it or not. Who's in charge today? Wounded inner child (the past) or present day you? I learned that my past tend to keep me there in the present, essentially my trauma. I projected my pain and insecurities on my surroundings attempting to seek love in unloving ways. Peep my on-going saga with my inner child on this topic.How do you ever know if someone truly loves you? I don't believe its 100% proof, but what I mean by that is the only you really can control is the love you give others. It's a blessing if we're able to receive love from those we value in our lives, but how would you ever know they truly do? Truth be told, why does it matter to some of us? I believe life teaches us that unconditional love is the key regardless, but tell that to our ego (the conditioner).Have you ever thought to yourself if I just love them harder maybe they'll start to appreciate me? I believe we all believe that myth at some point in time, but how does one know when to get up from the table when respect is no longer served? I'm a firm believer in practicing unconditional love but certainly not unconditional tolerance. So when do you stop caring?

Episode 237How We Create Our Own SufferingSensers! I believe assumptions can create a life of their own if we feed into the imagery we create when we make assumptions. Our fears can generate some of the biggest assumptions if we are not careful with how we manage our thoughts. Peep the assumptions I used to often make on this topic. The beauty of the journey of your life is coming out alive on the other side to tell the story. I believe we all have a story to expound on and in this topic I share some of the mental Olympics I felt I had to battle to improve as a man. A few curve balls and setbacks, but that makes us human. We each all have that comeback energy within us after facing adversity, this is the tale of my own. How often do we hear others complain about life? What is the biggest complaint we hear around our peers about life in this country? Why does one feel the need to complain? I believe we are all very fortunate to be somewhere we can even do so without fatal consequences. However, I wanted to share my thoughts on what I believe is the biggest complaint in our country.

Episode 236How We Fear Missing S***Sensers! Have you ever felt like if you didn't do something that you would be missing out on a moment? A feeling? An opportunity? I believe FOMO affects some of us in various ways. Whether it be to fit in, not be left behind, or just to say we did something. How does FOMO affect you? “Back in my day?”, “You young whippersnappers…”, “That ain't real music…”, so much shit is said by old(er) folks but what old person shit do you that you can be honest with yourself that you do? I'm old enough to realize that being with the in crowd is no longer a value of mine. What's your “I'm too old for this” moment? So, you're going on a date right? What are some things you keep in your mind when you're taking her out? What are some things you're silently observing from her? When do you call it a wrap on linking with her?

Episode 235How We Attach 2 EgoSensers! Ever get caught up in routine in life? Be it getting ready in the morning for work or how you answer the phone. How does autopilot affect your life? I'm in constant autopilot when it comes to being productive.“My god is better than your god.” “I worship the real God.” I believe that God wanted this to happen.” So many things we say as humans and cause unnecessary conflict due to our ego as well as regulating a nervous system. Why do you believe we get so attached to who and what we believe in? In life, much happens and our relationships with our family can become estranged. When it does go south, how do we go about mending that relationship? Who's responsible for making contact? Is it the parent or is the child?

Episode 234How A Man Grounds Himself Sensers! If you're like me, as a kid I was afraid of random things. I found fear in anything that wasn't pleasant. Loud sounds were really big for me as a kid, especially in horror movies or movies like Jurassic Park. What were you afraid of? I believe some of us are constantly on the go and our minds are moving rapidly, when does one take time to reset their mind? What do you do to find peace in the chaos around us? I took time to look back at the week I completed and came up with a few things I learned throughout those days. A few lessons I taught myself just off observation and reflection within.

Episode 233How We Distort LifeSensers! Happy Father's Day to every dad who made an impact on a human mind in this life whether it was your kid or not. I want to state that I believe we have this tendency discredit people based on our narrowed minded ideology.  We can dismiss others because they're not as old as we are and in some cases as young as we are.  I believe both sides have value to information based on focus and not so much age itself with relativity.“I can't live without you” “you complete me” “I won't breathe without you”…a few toxic statements I believe were programmed into our minds and we took it literally vs figuratively.  I also believe this way of thinking has fucked up how we see relationships as a whole thus creating a jaded sense of entitlement whether it be the women or the men.  Our parents told us so many things that we didn't necessarily care to hear initially, then life happens and all that shit clicks.  I'm very grateful for the lessons taught by my parents and adults alike who saw shit down the road and just wanted to keep me on my toes in life.  Sometimes it won't make sense until you're in it, then looking back everything happened the way it was intended by God and His Universe. May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this.

Talk it out? Walk away? All of the above? Let's dive into it.

What would you consider to be your flaws?I'm talking to the men on this one…fellas have you ever notice without focus that you enjoy doing certain things that traditionally a woman might be into?
