Let's hear it. So, we're gonna break down some of the points in his speech. WAS IT WRONG FOR JAY-Z TO USE THIS TIME TO CRITICIZE THE GRAMMYs WHILE ACCEPTING A GRAMMY? DOES HE GET CREDIT FOR ADVOCATING FOR BEYONCE (ESPECIALLY IN FRONT OF BLUE IVY)? DOES BEYONCE MAKE GOOD ALBUMS OR GOOD SINGLES? BECAUSE RICH, OUT-OF-TOUCH WHITE PEOPLE ARE ON THE BOARD VOTING SHOULD BLACK FOLKS BOYCOTT THE GRAMMYS? (8:26) - VOTING AND VENTINGIT'S THE AMANDA SEALES SHOW, I'M AMANDA SEALES… IT'S TIME FOR – VOTING AND VENTING! THIS IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY (AND MINE) TO VENT ABOUT ANYTHING RELATED TO VOTING– CONTEMPLATING WHO SHOULD GET YOUR VOTE? VEXED ABOUT CERTAIN LAWS BEING VOTED ON IN YOUR CITY? WE WANNA HEAR ABOUT IT! IT'S TIME TO VENT. LET'S GO TO THE PHONE LINES. 1 855 AMANDA 8. · WHAT DO YOU WANT TO VENT ABOUT TODAY? CALLER #1 (11:35) - 60 SEC HEADLINES STORY 1Toni Braxton and Cedric The Entertainer will soon be hitting The Strip together, as the pair are set to co-headline a new residency in Las Vegas. It will run this April thru July. STORY 2: U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin made his first public appearance since he was hospitalized over complications of a procedure to treat prostate cancer. He apologized for his lack of disclosure, and is now urging Americans particularly Black men to take care of their healthSTORY 3: Michael “Killer Mike” Render was released on his own recognizance on Sunday night after being arrested following his win of three Grammy Awards during the pre-televised portion of the event. STORY 4: The African American Film Critics Association, has announced a groundbreaking partnership with Delta Air Lines to curate a unique collection of films celebrating Black History Month. (14:51) - HAPPY BIRTHDAY!TINASHE THE LATE BOB MARLEY THE LATE NATALIE COLE THE LATE RONALD REAGANCOMING UP THIS HOUR IN BLACKURATE NEWS: THE UNITED STATES HAS UPDATED THE TRAVEL ADVISORY FOR JAMAICA DUE TO WHAT THEY SAY IS AN UPTICK IN UNSAFE CONDITIONS. IN CELEBRATION OF BLACK HISTORY MONTH WE'VE ALSO GOT A MOMENT IN BLACK HOOD HISTORY. PLUS, THE BIG UP/LET DOWN… WHICH TODAY INVOLVES A CRITIC, A TIP AND AN APOLOGY. (17:27) - BLACKURATE NEWSIT'S THE AMANDA SEALES SHOW! I'M AMANDA SEALES… AND NOW IT'S TIME FOR SOME BLACKURATE NEWS. STORY 1: The U.S. State Department issued a Level 3 travel advisory for Jamaica, urging Americans to exercise “increased caution” due to an increase in violent crimes. According to the text, incidents such as home invasions, armed robberies, sexual assaults, and homicide are common in the country and sexual assaults are frequent, including at all-inclusive resorts. News Nation travel editor Peter Greenberg said “The good news is, in most cases, these crimes are not crimes committed or targeted at travelers or tourists. They're gang versus gang crimes, much like we've seen in Mexico over the last 15 years. And the same applies to Jamaica.” Gotta be careful with ANY messaging coming from the U.S. What should be the travel advisories for people coming to America ? Be careful existing while Black.. Or gay… or non-Christian. DC and the Bay Don't leave anything on your seats in Atlanta. Actually, if you can take the seat out of your car, do it. American tourism has really ravaged our caribbean countries Jamaica's can't even use the beach. Hawaiians don't want us there Just ‘cause we're in the diaspora doesn't mean you won't get jacked. Travel SMART. (21:48) - A MOMENT IN BLACK HOOD HISTORYIt is Black History Month, but in this segment, we're taking a different approach than repeating the same BHM talking points. This is your “MOMENTS IN BLACK HOOD HISTORY,” a tribute to little known historical facts that originated in the HOOD. Kool Aid was invented by a white man in 1927, but it was the Black community that transformed Kool Aid FLAVORS into COLORS. It was a summer day in the South. The Black mother standing inside the kitchen with a squeaky screen door, said to her Black child, “Go make me some Kool aid, to which the child replied, what kind?” Black mother said– RED Koolaid, and the rest is history. The child instantly knew his mother's desires. The words “cherry or strawberry” Kool Aid haven't been uttered since. Thanks to Black people for the popularization of Kool Aid flavors! (23:49) - BIG UP, LET DOWNIT'S THE AMANDA SEALES SHOW! I'M AMANDA SEALES… AND NOW IT'S TIME FOR!... THE BIG UP, LET DOWN. BIG UP -to food reviewer Keith Lee for defying the “black people don't tip” stereotype. · Keith visited the Sweetly Seasoned food truck in Dallas. He told the owner to charge his card for $4,000. He decided to bless the owner, her son, and two individuals doing hair outside the truck He expressed that $1K should go to a barber, another $1K to a woman doing braids, and the rest to Kim Viverette (owner) and her son to help their business. BIG UP TO KEITH for leading by example and tipping, ‘cause some of us HATE TIPPING and will find any reason not to. Will order up the whole menu, Hennessey Mimosas, seafood towers, but get “cheap” when it's time to tip. Update: the owner has apologized as she did not honor Lee's request and instead kept the entire $4K LET DOWN - JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE FOR IMMATURELY AND EMBARRASSINGLY LIVING UP TO HIS OWN SONG TITLE “SELFISH” Justin Timberlake told a New York City audience he'd “like to take this opportunity to apologize — to absolutely f---ing nobody,” just days after Britney Spears said she was sorry about comments in her book It was a profane non-apology to an Irving Plaza crowd right before he sang the 2013 hit "Holy Grail," a Jay-Z track he is featured on. THIS WAS A SELFISH, SELF-CENTERED MOVE, BECAUSE YOU AIN'T JAY-Z, JUSTIN! I CAN THINK OF A FEW PEOPLE YOU NEED TO APOLOGIZE TO!

AND THE SQUAD IS HERE FOR HOW BLACK DO YOU FEEL? (32:59) - POP CULTUREThis clip on the internet caught my attention and dissension. Listen to what NBA player, MICHAEL PORTER JR. had to say about light-skinned brothers TO some darker-skinned brothers on the PIVOT podcast. Yep. Here's what Van Lathan had to say in response. AND HERE'S WHAT I HAVE TO SAY. ACTUALLY, I HAVE A THEORY ABOUT THIS. Amanda: Yup I been talking bout this. All these shows and commercials it's always a biracial couple. Yt men who perpetuate yt supremacy have never truly cared about their women other than for power purposes so it would come as no surprise that they would consciously present images of yt women with black men as a method of dismantling the black family, black identity, and obtaining opps to further their yt supremacist agenda.

What is your opinion or belief about crying? What has been your life experience with crying? As a child, were you told to stop being a "crybaby?" Or, if you wanted to cry, your parent would give you something to cry about? If you reflect on your relationship to crying for a moment, you may see that the patterns and behaviors about crying likely haven't changed much as an adult. That is unless you've done considerable emotional personal development work. Just like we have to build our self-confidence muscle, our emotional intelligence, like a muscle, needs attention, too. Do you know people who have used crying as a manipulation tactic to get what they want? Have you known people who have used crying to bypass what is emotionally going on - using it not to have to talk about what they're feeling? Maybe you've done one or both of these things yourself. Most of us have, at some point in our lives, particularly as children, when there was something we wanted. Depending on the behavior emulated for you as a child, perhaps these behaviors were learned and are tactics you rely on today.This episode aims to get you thinking about crying and your relationship to it. As well as to consider how the ways others respond to the grief and loss in their lives may differ from you - and allowing that to be okay and not judging the other person for it. And for funsies, if you haven't seen the 1990 movie Crybaby with Johnny Depp and Ricki Lake, it's a fun role to see Johnny Depp play.

What You'll Hear In This Episode:Lisa shares how she learned to open up and truly get emotionally naked.When we open up and share something, we wait to see how it's responded to and how it's received. How working with Lisa and Benjamin can help you share your emotions in a vulnerable way that doesn't make the man want to back out the door and run away. Being emotionally naked can be light and playful, but it doesn't have to mean you are fake or acting like everything is fine and dandy when it isn't. The phrase "share your head before you share your bed" is essential because if you share your bed first, it's hard to go back and build that foundation of friendship. Emoting isn't bad, but it's the dumping on another person and using them as an emotional dumping ground where the problem comes in. It's so important to see a doctor and get the help you can for hormone issues that make you feel extra stressed, anxious, and irritable. What is the Magic Minute?

In This Episode, We Get Tactical About: - Meditations 9.5 - Being Virtuous vs. Virtue Signaling - Virtue is Hard, Virtue Signaling is Easy - There is Injustice in What You Do and in What You Don't Do - Stop Talking About it and Be About it Resources + Links: Connect with Kristofor on Instagram | @team_healey How can Kristofor help you become more indispensable? https://linktr.ee/krhealey Shoot us a message on Instagram with your biggest takeaway @team_healey Show Notes: On our Friday Debrief we recap the week, talk about the lessons learned and head into the weekend with a tactical advantage. In Meditations 9.5 Marcus Aurelius reminds us that “Injustice lies in what you aren't doing, not only in what you are doing.” What does this mean? Said another way, you can commit injustice by doing nothing. Virtue signaling is incredibly popular in our internet focussed society. You must emote on every current thing. You must be down for the struggle…nominally. As long as you don't have to, you know, actually struggle. Virtue signaling is a violation of the core Stoic practice of showing rather than telling. Virtue signaling is not virtue. Emoting does not make for a virtuous life. It is the same as doing nothing. If we begin with a commitment to virtue, an earnest commitment to doing the right thing, to serving the common good, to philosophical ideals, it requires us to act when we see injustice, not to talk about it. Virtue signaling is easy. Virtue is hard! Until Monday…Out of role!

You can go ahead and be perfect, toe the line, do what she wants and be with her until she finds someone more ambitious-- RENA Won't be hard. MATILDA Shush. Or you find a way to slack off and subtly let her know that you aren't going to turn into a silk purse any time soon, and let her dump you. RENA Talk to that guy from this morning. I'm sure he can give you some pointers. MATILDA The big question is, is she worth it? BUD You know... You said a mouthful right there. I think some deep pondering is in order. Thanx!

In this episode of the Get the F*ck Off Podcast, I talk about an experience I had recently where my attachment to being a “good person” actually caused me quite a bit of suffering.These experiences have been enlightening in the respect that they have helped me examine my relationship to myself, my ego, and my insistence to attach myself to being “good.”These have also coincided with my listening to Wayne Dyer's Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life: Living the Wisdom of the Tao on my morning runs.To see oneself as “good” is really walking a fine line, because that opens up the door to see others as “bad,” thus causing separation between yourself and mentioned others.Once there is a perceived separation, we often experience conflict.I also talked about attachment to outcome in this episode, and how we often act with the expectation that others will behave a certain way. When they don't, we allow ourselves to feel upset.That upset is created by us and can be yet another cause of our suffering. Last, I talk about how emoting, and EMOTIONS are part of the human experience, yet we are taught from young that any emotions that are seen as “negative” should be pushed away. I use an example of crying recently, and about three people trying to “make it better.” (What we tend to do when someone is showing upset.)Emoting is part of the human experience. It isn't bad or wrong. It's just part of it. Repressing emotions is often the early beginnings of things like “overeating” or “alcohol abuse,” because we are taught unfairly to repress any emotion that is unpleasant, rather than to experience it. Eventually, the leftover behaviors are all we actually see of those repressed emotions and unresolved issues.This is kind of advanced stuff- and it is a bit of an introduction to the deeper work that I do with my clients. If you think you're ready and want to work through some stuff, I'd love to have a conversation with you.You can email me andee@getthefuckoff.com and we'll set up a time to talk.
Musitations™: Exploring Music, Meditation, Creativity and Wisdom
In episode 10 I'm thrilled to have the talented musician and author McCall Erickson back on Musitations™! I first read a quote 5 years ago by McCall that touched me deeply, “Soul work is not a high road. It's a deep fall into an unforgiving darkness that won't let you go until you find the song that sings you home.” It was a beautiful distillation of what I have found to be true on my own journey. In Episode 6 you can hear more about her book The Second Half of the Mountain: A guide to Personal Alchemy After Awakening. Since our last episode we have stayed in touch and found a mutual focus, concern and interest in the following topics particularly around emotional sobriety and how it relates to healing from codependency, developing our creativity and supporting our well-being. Topics explored: What is emotional sobriety? Our personal journeys with healing codependency and learning to transmute feelings and emotions Feeling vs. Emoting and how they're both necessary Our work to live beyond the drama triangle Forming secure attachments outside of the drama triangle Attachments vs. connections Link to McCall's website: https://www.mccallerickson.com Link to the video version of this episode (coming soon)
In this episode, I share a soulversation Michael DeMaria and I had on his podcast Musitations. United in our longtime commitment to healing codependency in our own lives, we explore emotional sobriety and how it relates to the well-being and creativity of the soul.

Do thoughts cause emotions? Do emotions cause thoughts? Sometimes it's both, sometimes it's neither. In this episode we talk about these questions and outline how the answers lead us to a deeper and more clear understanding of whats going on inside of us. We need to learn the stories we are telling ourselves. We also need to learn what our emotions are telling us about our thoughts. Lastly, we need to understand how time and processing grief are related - to make sure that we understand how why time is important and how we can avoid wasting it during the healing process.

Percussionist Cameron Leach and I have a great show for you today! In addition to some great practice tips, Cameron elaborates on some very important topics, including how to clearly communicate to our audience through intentional and empathetic performing, why students must take ownership of their own learning experience, and why musicians need to be great friends to each other! I love Cameron's perspective on those topics, and I hope you enjoy our discussion! Cameron elaborates on: His journey to a solo career – starting in drumcor, doing a music education degree, and transitioning to performance after a chance encounter How he organizes his practice – having to handle so many instruments Why he likes to practice hungry What it is like to have to learn a wide variety of percussion instruments Ho he transfers the sound concepts from one instrument to the next Different practice modes in practice: Learning mode “Emoting” mode Why he thinks it's important to consider how you are sending your musical message and how it is received by your listeners Clear emotional communication How documenting his practice on video helped him release stress and was a creative outlet Why it's important to keep the sound of the hall in mind when we practice How recording ourselves helps us narrow our focus on specific elements in our practice His 3 key words – inquisitive, intentional, empathetic How students must take ownership of their learning experience (SCHOOLS CAN'T TECH YOU EVERYTHING!) during their degree and remain inquisitive AFTER they've graduated (Pssst! We're all lifelong learners!!!!)

An engaging and thoughtful soloist, Leach has concertized across the United States, Canada, and Europe. He frequently appears as a guest artist at some of the world's finest institutions, including the Royal Danish Academy of Music, Royal Northern College of Music, Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre, and Norwegian Academy of Music. Leach recently won both the Percussive Arts Society International Solo Artist Competition and Yamaha Young Performing Artist Competition, in addition to receiving the prestigious Performer's Certificate from the Eastman School of Music. Along with his active touring schedule, he regularly performs with the Columbus Symphony Orchestra, and serves on the faculty of Kent State University. Leach is endorsed by Black Swamp Percussion, Beetle Percussion, Sabian Cymbals, and Malletech. Highlights from the 2017-2018 season include the debut of his new electroacoustic solo show ELISION, a European Tour as Co-Principal of the World Percussion Group, the world premiere of Paul Lansky's Metal Light for the Percussive Arts Society, and a performance of Jennifer Higdon's Percussion Concerto with the Eastman Wind Ensemble. Additionally, he performed Peter Maxwell Davies' seminal Eight Songs for a Mad King with Ensemble id, a Rochester, NY-based chamber collective. His latest project, the Leach | Peters Percussion Duo, debuted on the Eastman Summer Concert Series in July 2018. Leach's 2018-2019 season is marked by a diverse array of solo appearances, guest artist engagements, and world premieres. Kicking off with a performance at the National Centre for the Performing Arts in Beijing, China, Leach then embarks on recital and clinic tours of California, Florida, and the Midwest, featuring newly commissioned solo works by David Skidmore and Matt Curlee. In March 2019, Leach will give the world premiere of Dave Maric's Percussion Concerto, commissioned for him by the Capital University Conservatory of Music. To close out the season, Leach will serve on faculty at the MalletLab Summer Intensive in West Palm Beach, FL, and will spend a week in residence as the featured artist for the Space City New Music Festival in Houston, TX. Devoted to the creation and performance of new music, Leach continues to commission diverse works for solo percussion, with a focus on the inclusion of electronics. During his time at the Eastman School of Music, the institution supported his vision through the Eastman/ArtistShare Partnership, allowing Leach to organize a commissioning consortium for Decay No. 2, a massive electroacoustic solo work by Matt Curlee. Other premieres include pieces by composers Michael Burritt, Paul Lansky, Jeff Tyzik, Alejandro Viñao, Annie Gosfield, Tim Feeney, Jon Lin Chua, and Frédéric Chiasson. Leach makes regular appearances at the Percussive Arts Society International Convention, having performed with the Eastman Percussion Ensemble and on the Competition Winner's Showcase Concert in 2017, on the Focus Day Series and as a member of the All-Star International Percussion Ensemble in 2015, and with the Rhythm X Indoor Percussion Ensemble in 2011. In addition to his work as a concert artist, Leach also has a strong background in marching percussion, having won world titles with the Blue Devils Drum & Bugle Corps and Rhythm X.

The word blockchain can create a whole range of emotions ranging from excitement to fear. In this podcast we had the pleasure to have Mark Simpson, Head of Consultancy at Armour Risk, take us through the Psychology of Blockchain. What is blockchain? Mark prefer to lift it to describe what Distributed Ledger Technology is (of which blockchain is a type of DLT) Simply - Digital and decentralised books of record A bit more complex - DLT is a database held and updated independently by each participant (or node) in a network – the distributed bit. Updates to the ledger are independently constructed and recorded by each node. The nodes then vote on these updates (different methods) to ensure that the majority agrees with the conclusion reached. This voting and agreement on one copy of the ledger is called consensus, and is conducted automatically by a consensus algorithm. Once consensus has been reached, the distributed ledger updates itself and the latest, agreed-upon version of the ledger is saved on each node separately. The immutable bit. The DLT attributes are Distributed Transparent & change evident Consensus driven Immutable record Tamper proof Cryptographically secure In three words - Digitally Lifting Trust Fear and DLT as a catalyst for change In many ways DLT is like other forms of technology in that it is a catalyst for change, but as it challenges from more than a tech point of view it brings other challenges. DLT challenges paradigms; values, identity and this can be tough. According to Mark our view of the world and decision making is in fact distributed and doesn’t just occur in our head. As a coach one of the methods Mark has trained in was multiple intelligences (or mbraining for short). Mbraining developed by Grant Soosalu & Marvin Oka used findings in Neuroscience that show we have three functioning brains in our head, heart and gut respectively. Using these findings as the basis for further behavioural modelling research, they unpacked some of the unconscious processes we use with our head, heart and gut. It is a body of knowledge that has really helped from a change perspective and is being used in a framework Mark has developed called Resilient Changing. Mark wrote an article on the topic of change a couple of years ago: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/meeting-challenges-change-part-1-mark-simpson/ In summary we have The head brain – highest expression - creativity Cognitive Perception- cognition, perception, pattern recognition, etc. Thinking – reasoning, abstraction, analysis, synthesis, meta-cognition etc. Making Meaning – semantic processing, language, narrative, metaphor, etc.s The heart brain – highest expression is compassion Emoting– emotional processing (e.g. anger, grief, hatred, joy, happiness etc.) Values – processing what’s important to you and your priorities (and its relationship to the emotional strength of your aspirations, dreams, desires, etc.) Relational affect – your felt connection with others (e.g. feelings of love, hate, indifference, compassion, uncaring, like, dislike, etc.) The gut brain – highest expression - Courage Core Identity – a deep and visceral sense of core self, and determining at the deepest levels what is ‘self’ versus ‘not-self’ Self-preservation – protection of self, safety, boundaries, hungers and aversions Mobilisation – motility, impulse for action, gutsy courage and the will to act Fear and blockchain What is fear - An unpleasant emotion caused by the real or perceived threat of danger, pain, or harm? What could this mean from a blockchain perspective? Head brain All this new terminology – I don’t understand it, or I don’t want to admit I don’t understand it – examples – DLT = Blockchain = Bitcoin = environmental damage, money laundering, There is a lot of evidence that many people in organisation do not understand blockchain an...

Artist Brittany Schall had a creative idea, she pushed through fears, and in the end, developed a portrait style all her own. Her drawings are life-like portraits of hair that omit a person's face, yet, allows their identity to surface. She urges artists to takes risks that can sometimes only be discovered from failure, and she gives important copyright information that she wished she'd had. http://5ed.8db.myftpupload.com/

We witnessed this past weekend what happens when the human spirit provokes us into passion and purpose. During the peaceful demonstration of healing and saying 'enough is enough' many are realizing (some for the first time) that this is what it means to have an inner life. *It was/is a spiritual moment!
