Join me as my co-cost Lanora, Eric and I discuss the intimacy of communication. We discuss how important communication is in relationships. It's important to openly express how you feel, your needs, your wants and your deal breakers. This eliminates misunderstanding which results in resentment, confusion, anger or hurt. We discuss why it's so hard for some people to communicate openly and just be honest. We discovered one episode was not enough because we barely touched the surface of this topic. Stay tuned for part 2 next week were we get deeper into the subject. This episode was recorded live on Facebook.

On this episode Cali and I discuss church hurt. I start off by telling a piece of my story and how I was 18, pregnant and shunned by the church. I felt so ashamed and did not return to church for several years. Cali's story is OMG.... you just have to tune in. She was a former member of the Jehovah's Witness Organization. She talks about how she was excommunicated from the religion on more than one occasion, how her own family disowned her when she decided Jehovah Witness was not for her anymore and her journey of where she is now.

Is society glamorizing drinking alcohol too much? Or, are we just bored out of our minds? Either way, in this episode I wanted to ramble about my thoughts around this topic. I was watching an episode of Red Table Talk and it really made me think about my drinking habits and the damage it does to our body. I hope you enjoy it!

Are you burnt out? On this episode I will review signs of burn out and talk about some ways to fix it. What is Burnout? Burnout is a state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion caused by excessive and prolonged stress. It occurs when you feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, and unable to meet constant demands. As the stress continues, you begin to lose the interest and motivation that led you to take on a certain role in the first place. Burnout reduces productivity and saps your energy, leaving you feeling increasingly helpless, hopeless, cynical, and resentful. Eventually, you may feel like you have nothing more to give. The negative effects of burnout spill over into every area of life—including your home, work, and social life. Burnout can also cause long-term changes to your body that make you vulnerable to illnesses like colds and flu. Because of its many consequences, it's important to deal with burnout right away. https://www.helpguide.org/articles/stress/burnout-prevention-and-recovery.htm

Join my guest Layna, Kamara, Murff, King and I as we talk about cheating. This episode is special because my guests are complete strangers to me. I was added to a group called TRIBE on Facebook. They always have insightful conversations but I just so happen to be looking for a new topic and I saw Murff post a statement on a topic me and a few of my girls were just talking about so I had to throw out the invitation for him to come on the show as a guest to discuss. He agreed and then I said - you know what, let's get a panel going and here we are! Here is the post he posted: “You treat a MAN good he ain't going to see no other WOMAN but You!” Cheating generally means that you are not fully satisfied with your current partner or you feel that something is missing in the relationship. It's often said that men cheat just for more sex or more exciting sex and women cheat to fill an emotional void. So we pose the question - if you are completely in love and happy in your relationship (mentally, physically, financially and spiritually) - why would you still cheat? This is raw footage from the Facebook Live streaming so now much editing was done.. Excuse me in advance. I hope you enjoy!

Today we are going to be visiting with Devell Hawkins. He is a Florida native. I met Davell on Clubhouse and his story was so compelling that I had to reach out to him to see if he would bless us with his story. He was sentenced to 22 years in prison, he struggled with dyslexia and obtained his GED while in prison and the most amazing part about that is that he wrote 3 books after he obtained his GED. He is now a #1 best selling author on Amazon, working on a 4th book and always spreading inspiration to others. Be sure to check out his latest book on Amazon - I Come Before You Crystell Publications : https://crystellpublications.com/crystal/

Listen in as we visit with my guest Levi who has agreed to share his story about the time he served in prison. Levi served 7 years of a 10 year sentence. I met Levi through skating, like most of my guest, and when I asked for people to volunteer to tell their story he was more than willing so I appreciate that. The purpose of this is not to glorify the time he spent in prison but to spotlight how he's overcome spending time. Hope You Enjoy!

Listen in as we visit with my guest Redd who has agreed to share her story about the time she served in jail. I personally had no idea she served time in jail and this was my first time hearing her story. I met Redd through skating and so far what I know about her has been progressive. I was able to learn even more about her this year when I started an accountability group in Jan. We started with getting to know each other, vision boards then we met weekly to check in to see how we all did on our goals. During these weekly meetings I really got to see a side of Redd I never knew. The purpose of this is not to glorify the time spent but to spotlight how she's overcome spending time and jail.
