Can I live? Must I be silent to avoid being harmed or not seen as angry when I exercise my rights as a US Citizen or a person with an opinion? Freedom of speak only seems to be relevant when you're in agreement with the majority or when it's not received as a threat to someone's authority. You're either too black, too entitled, too much woman, too much of a free thinker...I will NOT be silenced.
I found a new therapist and seems like it's just one time. Tune in while I share my first experience with my new black female therapist. Also my thoughts on the recent murder of George Floyd, another black man in America.

Depression is a real thing. When you're done working yourself crazy just to stay “busy” at night the things you run away from are still very much present wether you choose to be or not. Lots of transitions happening in my bubble, it's a lot to take in. Great things, healing, over coming, etc. There will be both good and bad days, I expect to be a better version of myself each time.
Until someone is gravely hurt or dead in a ditch somewhere is when people deem assault to be probable, but that's not the case. Several women have been silent due to the mental impact of toxic conditions they have either seen or has personally experienced that don't meet the “standard” to most in society. Well, this episode I'm sharing an experience I recently went through and also experiences from my past. I was assaulted by a man that had a romantic interest in me and felt he wasn't getting the attention “he felt he deserved”. —I'm not the one!

It's easy to go along with the crowd and look at a person going the opposite direction and assume their headed the wrong way.

In wake of the sudden social awakening happening with #SurvivingRKelly I'm excited to have my good friend and soul sister Ayesha on today! Before I knew that documentary was begin released I asked her to be apart of this episode. Sexual abuse is something that was happening in the 90's... I know be not only was I a victim but I also had friends at the time who were 12 & 13 dating leaving school to meet there adult “boyfriend”. I'm sure it wasn't just young girls in the African American community, I'm sure all across different races. Sexual Assault is real and it's not a trending topic to some folks.

Today we have the one & only Shanna L Woods for an episode of “I've earned my strips!”. Shanna is a professional dancer-singer currently based out of South Florida. She's faced several difference scenarios with how the black female body has been sexualized and how it's been taught by the media and society. Even I have experienced it throughout my childhood up until my adult life. I've even gotten some backlash on the choice of the cover art for this podcast. So.. let's talk about this. TO BE CLEAR, this conversation is not to explain but to educate people how these points are the reality for more than half of the African American women living in america.

This episode is about my discovery of self-love. Interesting enough I realized that it has been a long journey that started when I decided I wasn't worth anything and should just end my life; it was difficult seeing the light when being surrounded with such darkness. God found me at young age, in that moment, I was sure I meant something to at least one person and that was enough for me. That is when I first connected with art; I wrote short stories, music, & poetry to escape. I created my own little world but didn't realize I still lived in that place even in my adult years. Intro is Lauryn Hill giving some wise words to college students in 2000. The first song is Lauryn Hill hit song “Doo Wop (That Thing)”. Second song by H.E.R. “Lost Soul”.
