People Our Age

I don't know about you, but being a sports mom or dad can be challenging! Back in the Fall of 2022, I signed my son up for football and it was practice galore plus games on Sunday during the same times as the NFL games. Where they do that at?? I heard Buffalo, NY has all of their games on Saturdays and Sundays for the Bills. Anyways, I digress. After my son was done playing football, I signed my daughter up for basketball and her season was for three months!! I have a full-time job, a full-time side business, grad school, and other things on my plate, but my kids are important and I want them to have experience playing sports. Especially since they came to me about it.  In this episode, I talk about my experience with being a sports dad and serving as a glorified taxi service for my kids to get to and from practice. I also share three tips I found to be important for keeping my sanity the next time around when football and basketball start up again. If you have any tips, I'd love to hear them!  -Kareem

In this episode, I provide information about the Gallup CliftonStrengths assessment that I use with my students and clients. I first came across the assessment in my doctoral program last year and I have not looked back since. From there, I became certified as a coach and I am loving the fact that I get to work with people to help them develop their strengths. It is my goal to help 100 people this year develop their strengths using the assessment as a guide. For more information about the CliftonStrengths assessment, you can visit https://store.gallup.com/p/en-us/10108/top-5-cliftonstrengths For more information about connecting with me as your new coach, you can visit me at www.blueprintecs.net

How can we sustain ourselves by loving our spouses, raising a family, and getting ahead in our careers?? Sometimes I just want to go back to being a kid again because, for me, that time in my life was easy. I didn't have any bills or responsibilities and it was great! In this episode, I am getting all of my thoughts out about life(ing) because it can be hard to be an adult. Am I right or am I right??

How many of us have a story to tell?? I am 100% sure everyone who is reading this message is nodding their heads yes. I had the opportunity to pay it forward by telling parts of my story and pouring into the young black and brown men still in high school and trying to find their way. They are tasked with navigating a world that has repeatedly shown them that their lives are dispensable, which is not valid. It is our duty to hold these young brothers up and to let them in on the wisdom that has carried us through the good times and the hard times. Let's continue to fight for our young black and brown males. Enjoy the episode.

What's going on good people??? I'm sure most of us are feeling the pressures of life and just need a break!!! In one of my classes, we talked about McClusky's theory of Power/Load Margin. If you are a human being, you know all about carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders!!! I created this episode to open up the conversation about carrying too much on our plate which makes us tired, sick, and ultimately useless because we are depleted. I'd love to hear your comments about this and ways that you've been able to increase your power and lighten your load of daily tasks and responsibilities.

I had a phenomenal discussion with Isaiah Brock a newly graduated high school student going on to attend North Carolina A&T University in the Fall. Isaiah talks about his upbringing living in two different worlds, learning valuable lessons from his surroundings and having a plan for the future. Isaiah mentions that he hasn’t seen a lot of black students (not people) chasing success and this was a major reason for him choosing an HBCU. There are so many more nuggets that he shared that I don’t want to give away so I’d love to hear your comments on this episode.

Fellas! When the was the last time you and your bro had a real heart-to-heart conversation about life? I'm talking about you had to get what was bothering you off your chest and you had to go to someone whom you know you could trust? I've had this experience on many occasions and they have helped to save my sanity. Real Talk. Ladies, you are included in this conversation as well because we need your support in this! I know we do not always like to express our feelings, but we're working on it. Just give us some time. The purpose of this episode is to touch on the importance of brother-to-brother relationships particularly with conversation. In a recent conversation with one of my big bros, I thought about the following ingredients that helped the conversation to build: 1. Transparency 2. Vulnerability 3. Humility. At the forefront of these three ingredients is trust and it must be kept at all times for the relationship to remain fruitful. How can two walk together unless they agree? Remember men, iron does sharpen iron and we do need each other to run the race of life. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/peopleourageshow/support
