As adults, seldom do we say the new generation has it better than we did growing up. We often compare the two based on music, clothing, hairstyles, and even the ways in which we communicate. Truth is, having social media in the 70s, 80s, and early 90s, would have been interesting to say the least. We were already out going but to have a tool that could reach all four corners of the globe would have changed many narratives. Yet and still, we seldomly give credit to the new generation and we’ve made it clear we’d definitely prefer our timeline. Support the Show.

Changing for our children as parents is the most important thing we can do. Being present and consciously aware of traumas, bad behavior and interactions with our children is dire because our children need us functioning at full capacity. Love is an action word. You can’t love someone and not invest time into them. As parents it is our duty to be fully committed to our children’s development as well as their well being. It’s never too late to be a parent to your child. Would you rather spend your time watering your seed or would you rather spend your time in clubs hanging out with so called friends indulging in self destructive behavior?Our children need guidance, love and attention to properly evolve into promising adults. Let’s not be selfish but be selfless. LOVE YOUR CHILD..Support the Show.

Our community is plagued with a series of detrimental behaviors and ideologies but our lack of accountability is one of the worse traits. Men and women have become competitors, bashing and point fingers at one another. If we are to grow and evolve into who we really are meant to be we need to learn how to display sympathy, empathy and compassion towards one another. Life is about over coming the obstacles we’re born into so not to pass trauma down to our children. It’s dire we become the change we want to see in the world but most importantly, that we love on each other because we belong together.  Support the Show.

Marriage is meant to benefit both individuals equally. Now as far as impact on each person it’s subjective. However we’ve been programmed to only think about ourselves, which marriage is the total opposite. The matrimony between man and woman is meant to be joyful while experiencing life together as one and also while balancing our differences in opinions. Individually no 2 people are alike they’ll always be one ahead of the curb as far as maturity, understanding, knowledge and wisdom. But where love is present patience also reign supreme.Support the Show.

So many times we hear people say “I want the right person” when referring to having a significant other. No one ever really dissects what makes an individual the “right person” to be with in a relationship. That person may not come to you fully developed; lacking in some areas, yet still fitting most of the characteristics in which you’re seeking. They may need your help to develop and become the person you’re looking for. We don’t always get what we want. Sometimes we get what we need. Love isn’t judgmental more than it is inspirational. We should meet our partners where they are currently in life and motivate them to evolve into their greater selves. This is how we become the RIGHT person in someone’s life. Support the Show.

What’s life without purpose and what’s purpose without life. Often times people are afraid to admit they aren’t happy mentally and aren’t satisfied spiritually living their day to day lives. So many of us ignore our intuition our calling to be better to be greater than a hamster on a wheel. Before you can fly you must first soar but before anything you need faith to jump. Ms. Monique Rubaine a.k.a. Momo is a testament to having faith in God and in yourself. Support the Show.

A change we can believe in or at least hope for. Our communities lack so much especially leadership and hope. Mr. Brown is inspired to become a beacon of light, inspiration, and opportunity  to help restore our neighborhoods. Though many of our people have turned their backs on the hood, Mr. Brown believes he can restore it to become a prominent community. If we are indeed aspired to see change we must not be reluctant to do the necessary which is voting. Support the Show.

In many instances life can be difficult filled with challenges and obstacles. So many times those things can weigh on you so much affecting our ability to make decisions and choices that are positive. Brother Josh is stepping up and declaring change. Change to the broken system, change to our neighborhoods and most importantly change to our lives and children’s lives. Support comes in many forms but this time participation is necessary if we are to give this brother a chance to deliver change.Support the Show.

Words are powerful and a disagreement is an opportunity to establish clarity. Awareness is futile and our people are in need of leadership. Some think the way to evoke change is through politics which entails voting and trusting candidates to do what is right for the people. While others are more radical and think we need to do for ourselves. In this episode we see Ralph and Ellis disagree. This is an example of how conversations can and will change when  debating the state of our people. Determining  whether an  opinion is right or wrong depends on the audience. Please tell us what you think. Let’s have a conversation. Support the Show.

The promises of life are as follows, you born and you die. Nothing else is promised other than the work you put in to persevere.

The month of February should be a time for remembrance and reflection. The mistakes that were made that lead our ancestors into captivity but also the strength, courage, and determination displayed by them moving the needle forward so we could experience freedom.
