Shoutout to Nic for giving me a bit of inspiration on this one. We do alot of talking, signaling and texting in our lifetimes but how much do we use any of those to thank ourselves. Appreciation goes a long way and Self Appreciation may go even further. I remember learning about interpersonal and intrapersonal skills as a student but we for whatever reason use those skills to benefit others more than ourselves. We have to take time to love ourselves and I mean really love on ourselves not just s...

Back at it again with the white vans. One of the most difficult things to deal with for me and quite a few people is figuring out how to make it to the next day. I don't mean like surviving the day to make it to the next because of all the external things in this world. I mean you as an individual dealing with all of the internal things that make you just want to never leave the bed again or just frankly stop living. I'm talking about how you deciding again to get up every morning and get out of...

I said what I needed to say in the episode so these shows notes aint even gone do the conversation justice. One thing that has been important to me ever since I could remember was education. Now i'm no genius but one thing I do know from personal experience is that our education is fucked up, archaic, underfunded and needs reform now for the future leaders of tomorrow. I originally intended this to be one episode but the more I researched the more shit I needed to research and speak on at anothe...

Been a minute since I did an entire episode on music but today is that day. Wale's new album came out what like 2 fridays ago and I didn't really have any expectations which is a really low expectation if you might imagine. I finally checked it out this past weekend and I've had that joint damn near on repeat since. If you checked out the Damn. Episode I appreciate you but this ain't that so there's your disclaimer. Oh yea and I talk some other music shit too. Go ahead and get the album queued u...

As you can see by the title this is a question but it's more of a statement even though it has a question mark. Regardless "Are You Bias?" is the question or biased if you want to be technical. My wife and I had a lengthy and at times uncomfortable argusation this Sunday which is what triggered me to even record this one. Bias is damn near in our D.N.A whether voluntarily or involuntarily it's there its like the elephant in the room that we rarely discuss in front of company or even ourselves. C...

This is nothing new to say but there are a lot of Nonconfrontational people in the world. Yea this includes the thumb thugs but I'm not even really addressing them on this one. I'm direct and I'm aggressive too if I need to be. Today we talk about Avoidance, The Elephant in the Room, Temperature Checks, Timing and I give an update on my tweets about repairing relationships. I'm encouraging everyone to deal with your shit even if it's uncomfortable just consider it Self Care. I started off a litt...

This won't be long but just imagine you are a father of a 5yo black girl during the trump administration. Tell me what fears you have, what sadness you share, what anger you feel and what hope you have in humanity. Well that's me at 32 years old trying to figure out how to navigate raising a child in this world but also allowing her to be a child. It's really just me sharing some thoughts after last weekends mass shootings and something i've thought about ever since election night 2016. I honest...

Whether you've been here since day one or you just started listening yesterday we are about to take a trip down memory lane. Of course as I usually do there are a few things i forgot to say but maybe ill tell those stories another day. I've been thinking about this for awhile and i got the feeling that it was time to put the podcast into perspective. I officially launched the first episode either late June or early July of 2017 after months of debating if i could even do this. Now here we are a ...

On this episode we revisit Ava Duvernay's When They See Us on Netflix. I wanted to give folks time to digest the film and let all the "Ra Ra" die down a bit. We walk through the film from beginning to end which covers the men presently known as the Exonerated Five formerly known as the Central Park Five. As difficult as it was for me to get through the series the first time it's equally as important that we continue to have this dialogue. In addition let me welcome YouTuber and Designer Chris We...

I had to do some show notes for this one. Hopefully we touched on a bunch of issues but of course there were some things that were left unsaid. Nevertheless i'd like to welcome fellow Dallas native and host of Diary of A Afrolatina podcast Shae to the podcast better know as @TGKNOWSCURLS. We had a great conversation on self confidence, ugly phases and even had a few sidebars. Yall know i can't just stay on topic.

This episode is all about the business of having a family its a full time job. Once you are responsible for more people than just yourself you don't have the luxury of continuing to live the single life. Those who know know but this is often a conversation that is more implied than actually said. How do you operate or how should you operate when you have a family?

This is the question that I asked myself this week. I honestly thought it was funny just because of the fact that I look at family way different than say my wife. I mean I love them but I don't know if that F always stands for family. This will be another personal episode that I hope you can take something away from and apply in your own life.

You know i have like a list of things that i'd like to speak about and i organize them pretty well. I think about guest, research and all that jazz but i have to be in that passionate space to record so that the words just flow. I'm always better at freestyling. Anyway i said all that to say that this episode came to me the other day and i had to speak on it immediately.
