  • 12. When the past damages the present

    01:47:17
    In Episode 12 will sits with a good friend and colleague, Michelle Owens to talk about a topic of her choice. This topic happened to be inspired by a book she read, Born a Crime, in which the author had several quotes that had her wanting to sit and dialogue with men and ask the question, why do some of us let unhealthy or abnormal relationships with our mothers have a negative impact on our current intimate relationships. This was a very fun conversation / debate that even resembled a "battle of the sexes" atmosphere at one point that was exciting but also very important as it pushed both of us to ask some very serious questions about ourselves and relationships from the persepctive of both men and women.

  • 9. When You Can't Go Any Further

    38:39
    Originally Published a few months ago, this episode was personal moment. A moment where I had reached a breaking point in my life, a turning point and had to vent and let all my emotions out in regards to the pressures and struggles of being an African American in this country. What it means and the toll it takes on many of my fellow brothers and sisters. I hope that this resonates with some of you and can help you through. And for those who can't but have an African American colleague, I hope this gives you a glimpse into the struggle that we deal with on an every day basis that you yourself have the privilege of not having to endure.
