Welcome To Your 30's!

And I do this with inspirational insights and conversations with celebrities and everyday people like you and me, because if you want to be better and you want to do better, then you're going to have to be able to see better. So join me on this journey of living our best lives and understanding and realizing how you are your greatest ass At every morning I wake up, I said, good morning, Lucille, and I opened the blind. Lucille is my plant. I believe she's like a Hawaiian dracana or dress en d

r A E c A E n A something like that. Anyway, that's my Lucille. Now, Lucilla and I have to definitely had an interesting relationship just because we had to get to know each other, or perhaps I had to get to know her. It got real for a second. Um, I had to take her to the I c U had to take over to my friend. UM go to the plant doctor Aaron. I appreciate you, thank you for taking care of her, and had to revive her. And what I realized is that I kept just giving her water.

She needed more than water. She needed food. She needed that nutrin. And so once I got it back, you know, the plant doctor a K. Aaron, he gave me some of this formula and he said, you know what, just mixed this in a gallon of distilled water, not to not spring distilled, switching around and water once a week,

and right now we're all right. Well. The reason why I brought up blue sail is because I noticed today when I opened the blinds that her I don't know if I should call it, that the leaves of the bushels, the where the leaves are coming from, they were leaning over towards one way, and I said, God, dog, sil you want the gangster lane. And after I took a closer look, I realized that although she was right next to the window, she was even leaning more to the

right towards the light. The blinds I have opened, but I always have them on the slant so people aren't seeing directly into my home. But the key that stuck with me is that Lucille was reaching towards the light and would have us been. Over a year and a half since I had Lucille. I think this is one of the most profound things I've received from her, something that I've already known, but just something that had to

be underlying highlighted and put an exclamation point after. How important it is to lean towards the light and how we all do it so that we can grow? And what is the light? The lightest, the truth, the lightest peace, the lightest joy, the lightest kindness, the lightest But for it is that makes you feel good? Man, You're leaning towards the light and constantly reached for That's the vitamin D right with me, and get excited about you all feel like Marvin J right now, what's going on? What

the hell is going one doing? What you're talking about? Well, I'm glad you asked. I'm having this situation going on with my face. You heard me talk about it, right, I was talking about before I was like Damn. I'm at the point where I'm like, Jeremiah, we might need to switch the side of the camera because I got this whole action going on now. First I said, well, I thought maybe I was eating too much peanut butters.

I been on this kick real quick with this peanut butter in mind you if you ever want to give me some peanut butter, give me the crunchy one. And I've been creeping in with some honey, you know, just a quick snack. It's fulfilling it at the moment. And so I was like, maybe I've been eating too much of the oil is doing the breakout. But then you know, further examination of face, mainly the breakout is happening on the lower part of my face. Well, if you're familiar,

you know that's where the hormones are. And I'm saying, damn, I feel like I'm experiencing some type of adult acne. Alright, cool. So you know, I'm just sitting out anything, and I don't like, well, you know, I'm in authorities or whatever.

And you know, they say ship started changing when you're getting your thirties, but you know, I feel like people will being dramatic, but I'm really starting to think like it's something going on, and I've kind of I've narrowed it down because I was really engaging, like when my cyclists come out on and maybe tween my but hell, we gotta figure this out, uh when the breakout is coming. Now I realized that this go around, it's not that intense,

but it definitely is some hormonal ship going on. Now. I do think that it did or can or possibly uh did spirit here when I went to the dermatologist and she had given me some topical treatment. I was taking this oral medication. I should not have taken a damn oral medication because I really do feel like that could have changed. Um so hormortal stuff going on because my flace is going off. And I said this before, it's a big thing. Is one thing about it. I

problem myself on my skin. I washed my face, I use my stranger, I use my rose water, I use my moisturizer, and I use my some block. Do you understand, like the key to my heart if you ever wanted to get me something is to give me a skin care product. Hell, I'm looking for a skincare us mine, sir. Anyway, we're gonna get this together because we're coming back. So because I'm like, well, damned one, we are entering that age and w we're getting older, I said, dear mind,

I heard him up on a voice though. I said, I need you to pull me some information about ship that goes down and your thirties because I just feel like the things we need to talk about, things we need to know because I don't know. I just I just feel like maybe if we were abreast, we wouldn't be caught off guard because maybe I'm not looking like what the hell is going on? Versus I'm like, all right, Dawn, expecting the thirties were about to get a break out.

So I had Jeremiah check out some stuff about what's happening, and um, I at first I was like, oh do I want to say, like, well, I'm over thirty five crew, And I'm like, in this damn age, you can't even lie about your damage because you ain't got no damn business. Why all you gotta do is find somebody in the high school with the high school with the school we're posted U pictures. Oh hey, John, well, so there it is. Anyway, now that we're clear with that, we've gotten that out

the way. Um, it's so interesting when you are following your peers on social media, Yeah, because I think sometimes you forget what you look like. And I'm just noticing how um, you know it's the thirties, you know, that's when the gray hair started creeping through. Yeah, and it's not just on your hand, but it's in your your your your your, your personal reasons. What what the hell is going? Oh? I can't handle it all solids looking at this video and one of my friends, I'm starting

to notice she had a little wrinkle coming through. And you know, people be telling me that's way older. Me like, Dawn, you're not that old. I know I'm not that old yet. But right now, it's the curvature. If I'm lying on flying my feet still on the ground, but it's the curvature because this is right now where the peak where like ship starts happening, like just little stuff. So I said, hell, let's dive in it so that we can talk about a little bit more stuff, all right. So they say

eleven things that can happen after you turn thirty. Well one this is according to life hack dit org, hangover has become a real thing. You would rather stay in than go out at night. You start to gain weight and get sell you like more easily. I'm working on losing weight, but that sell you like boy. Anyway, I mentioned that you get wrinkles, gray hair starts to come in. Um, you'll start planning ahead of time instead of going with the flow. Right, a little bit of both. I'd like

to go with the flow too. Your social media will be full of baby photos, not so much of me. I don't have children yet, but I do notice. No, yes, my social media is full of baby photos. All my friends are posting up their kids. Um, your friend's circle is small and intimate. That's true. I talked about how I went through a prony process because you're realized it's not cute to have a whole bunch of group that's funny and fake. Because you get you just got less

time for bullshit. And I think what happens is is that you just start living a little longer, you start experiencing It's like, let's not even waste time. Okay, let's not even waste the time. Um. Also, you travel better because you could afford to do and to have more things. Hell yeah, because in the thirties, that's when we're starting to get the directorials VP executive vice president's positions. Hollyday, if you hear me, who do you who? And they

said of loving sex get better? Yeah, in fact, where is this setter? I was just looking, Oh, according to eight Surprising ways that your body changes in your thirties, one of the things they say is the sex drive of women ages twenty seven and forty five gets higher. Yes, probably because all the hormones are switching around, and it's so interesting. So the guys be up there when they're real young, and then the women be up there earlier. Just how how can we mix to get this together?

You know? And I won't say I have a different understanding, And I said appreciation of sex I think. And what I mean by that I always said when I was younger, I really I don't want to say upstain, but yeah, in a sense because I have modern my friends, and he would always be talking about how he's pimping all these girls, and I'm like, You're not about to pimp me.

That's not what this is gonna be. So I was very apprehensive of not really engaging and just having sex maybe like experimenting or you know, casually like other people are doing. Not because I wanted to, but I don't feel like I gave myself room in space to do that. And now that I'm older, you know, sometimes you just need what you need, you know, and there's no shade. You be responsible with your body, but you gotta do

what you gotta do. When you do what you do, okay. Uh. Furthermore, it says your metabolism slows down and you start to gain weight. I mentioned that. What is that like for you? Are you gaining way or losing weight? Or I don't like to say lose because I feel like when you say lose, you're looking to find it. I trying to find about damn way back? You gainy weight? What is

it looking like? Shout out to the real skinny skinny skinny girls, skinny skinny people, y'all got a good because like when you gain weight now that you're older, like you're sitting just right, like it's like perfectly you know whatever that means? Um? What else? This says your period changes due to possible decline in estrogen and progester on hair levels. Your period can be lighter or heavier more

than usual. That is true, experiencing that. Um it says, also, you may be harder for to have children to do changes in your home. Monks like ole, we all know that. You know, if you're interested in having children, after you get to the age of thirty five, you will start to figure out what you need to do. And I feel like we need to have more conversations like that. A good friend of mine, Dr. Renee Matthews, she was telling me in other communities and specifically, I think she

was talking about one of her Jewish friends. She said, like, I don't know what age party, but they start putting funds together. I guess if somebody wants to preserve their eggs or freeze their eggs like in the African American alsho. I don't think that we're talking about that enough about what we do about wanting to have children. Why, because you know, we come from a point we got to take care of the household. We're trying to be hustle as we're trying to make it. It's all about climbing

the ladder. Then guess what after we lived there and we want to, you know, view the window of having children, Well, now it's gotten narrow more narrow or Damn they're closed, and we weren't thinking about ways that we could keep that door possibility open, especially now when there's so many career oriented women. So check it out if you're over the age of thirty five. It's not like it's too late, of course not, but it is start to look at

what do you need to do? You need to decide whether or not you are going to freeze your eggs or what. Because I think after forty starts getting real slam. According to uh Swollster dot indeed tv dot com, shout out to Jeremiah, he got this, um he says that or not he? He said that? I'm not he Uh. The website says health will become a whole lot more important to you, probably because I asked, is our gaining weight?

And tell you like it's coming. You're just more particular about what you're putting your body, you know what I'm saying. Moving on from that, they say that family will take on a whole new meeting. Hell yeah, because you start to realize that sometimes friends are a family that you can't choose. You start to see things a little different, and especially if your career oriented and say, if you've moved out from another state and you're the black sheep.

You get an idea of what other family looks like. What else does it? Say? Mm hmm, And you will demand more respecting your relationships. Hell yeah, because you start to have a value what you are, what you who you are, and what you expect. You realize you start to have things are non negotiable. I think you know.

My woman used to say, don just live a little longer, and that couldn't be further from the truth because in this hole living a little longer, you realize that people ain't gotta heaven or hell to put you in, so your your opinions don't really matter. They ain't paying your bill, the damn show, ain't feeding you. Hell they day ain't tucking you in at night, So why give a damn

with somebody else thinks. So in that with that man said you just gotta have a more, you just start having a more, you know, love for yourself, and in that love for yourself, they also say you'll become more protective of your time. Hell yeah, they say that time is our rost valuable coin because once it's spent, you can't get it back. Hey, this is your girl, Shirley Strawberry. How are you doing. Hi, everybody, This is Jasmineberg coming to you from the Vitamin Deep with Don da podcast.

Keep Shining Down, Keep Shining. I think of love languages, and I wasn't thinking until the other day. I was like, Yo, when stuff is quality time and when you're asking for somebody's time, like, I'm choosing out every person I can talk to any world, any place in the world I could be. I'd rather choose it with you, realizing that I'm getting closer and closer to my death. I know it sounds morbid, but you have to really hold it precious your time because how are you spending it? Are

you living your life on purpose and for purpose? Don't tell me? Ask yourself. That also says that you start to decide how important integrity is to you. M hmmm. I tell Jeremiah almost every damn day, how you do anything, it's how you do everything. You gotta have integrity and how you move? What do you value? What do you stand for? Because hell, if you don't stand for anything, you'll fall for everything. Ship the wind, a ball, a blow against you, and your fall down. Also, they say

you've been aren't interested in politics? Hell? Yeah, I don't think I really cared too much about politics when I was younger and I was the student that that I wish. I keep thinking about this dang on program and I cannot remember the name of it. Um, so that means I gotta figure it out. But anyway, it was a high school program I went to, and uh, we had we built our own government system, and you know, they chose me to be the damn Supreme Court judge and

I knew nothing about nothing. But like I was saying, I tell Jeremiah all the time, like, Yo, I wanna, you know, get involved with some politics in l A. And specifically I want to see what Karen Bass is a campus doing. You know, she's gonna be like one of the first black mayorsa l A. I want to be about that, you know if I got you know, my gifts. So anyway, you're listening and you got ties to Karen Bass out here in l A. Tell her that doing day is trying to get down with the

get down. Okay. Um? Also, what else is this saying? Oh, I really like this one. It says your relationship with spirituality and I'm gonna say hashtag or slash religion might change. Yeah, you start to grow and to think for yourself and you start to uh figure out what works for you. I think that's one of the beautiful things that comes with getting older or seasoned, I shall say, is that you figure it out your group and you're realizing what

works for you. You're allowing yourself to digest because I think when you're younger, you're just being told or what's what. But then you start getting tuned into what things feel like and what finds peace and what's gonna keep you moving and keep you going. And I think it also has to deal with what we talk about how you start cutting out toxicity in your life, and that could just be people who aren't serving you if it's not serving the values that you uphold yourself to, or you're like, yo,

I don't like any values I've been standing. You just have a sense of self. You know what I was thinking. I was like, yo, I probably felt the shift change when I was twenty seven. When I was twenty seven, I I always tell people, I think that's when the brain shift, because I think that's when I start to realize, like, I don't give a damn now, I'm not at the thirty six, I don't give a damn. I am right now. But when I was twenty seven, damn, I was like, oh, I don't think I care so much. Now I can

really give two ships. And that's for real, which is a dangerous and a beautiful situation all at once. Also it says, oh, I like this one. It says, you will have to make a conscious effort not to judge the younger generation. Yeah, because remember, like I said, it's like you're at the cusp of being older. So you recognized the older people, but then you're still in tune with what the younger people doing. It's like, Okay, I see you. I may not necessarily agree, but I definitely

can see you. And and then seeing them, you start to realize how you see yourself. And they said, also, you will appreciate being by yourself more. Can I get a witness who appreciates that? Damn? Meantime, I think I always had, probably because I'm such an extra verse So I give so much to people that when I'm at own sometimes I can go a whole day without talking and it's beautiful. I just had my mama with Dawn, and I'm just like, yes, yes, give it to me give it to me now now now? Um? Also what

else do I want to stay on here? That I did, like how are you sleeping? Along with the whole idea that I was talking about. Ifure with my face breaking out, the hormo changes can affect your mood, sleep, fertility, and your anxiety. Are you getting stressed out? What are you doing for that? Like for myself, you know, I work out a lot. The yoga is really helping me to

get this under control. And then also I would like to also say that because we are like cutting off all these toxic relationships and you just don't have um time to deal with other people because all of your responsibilities, well, that can also lead to depression and stress some more so, that's further more the reason why we have to eat right and getting to sleep and doing a meditation and drinking our water and therapy because a lot of us

are not healing our inner child. Speaking of which, one of my friends is telling me that they're checking out. They're doing some trauma therapy. Have you heard about that? I need to check it out because I'm realizing, like I mean, I feel like we all got trauma going on. But I'm like, yo, I really I might have some abandonment trauma stuff, not exactly specifically what, I don't know

from what, but definitely something to explore. Mm hmm. But yeah, that's just some of the stuff that I came across that changes when you in your thirties, and I'm just like, Lord, have mercying It's yeah, it's something that I tell Jeremiah every time. So I come into the studio and Jeremiah coming me outside, and then we come up into the to the garage parking area, we get on the floor, and every damn time I get out the damn car, I gotta said, oh, my body, and then I said,

I gotta shake it out. The ship is real now because of the traffic, it takes me about way like thirty forty minutes to get here to the studio. Should my body be stiffing up in forty minutes? What the hell is going on here? See? That's why I was provoked to pull this stuff out. And then we got this whole situation happened in the face. Thank God my locks are blind, because I don't know what I'm going to do. The moment I realized or find out that there is gray here going on my head. I don't

know if I can handle it. I don't know what's gonna happen. I don't want to know what's gonna happen. Lord, please do your covering on me. Okay, I'm changing the topic anyway. Um, so yeah, here are some things that's happened on A thirty. Look listen, don't say I didn't give you a heads up about it. Okay? Oh God, now Housekeeping. You want to be on the show.
