    EP 191: The Impact of Liars, ADHD and Bipolar Medication Struggles, and Finding Strength in Faith

    enJuly 25, 2023

    About this Episode

    Listen in as we dissect the intricate web of lies and their implications, both for the individual and those around them. This exploration also extends to the consequences of fake kidnappings, attention-seeking behavior, and their possible link to mental health issues.

    Prepare for a lively debate about the characteristics that define high-value men and women. We explore the importance of a strong moral code, leadership values, faith, and discipline. This conversation also highlights the dangers of an overemphasis on superficial success and material possessions, and the need to strive for internal success.

    Additionally, we shed light on the challenges faced by a trans woman who was refused treatment by a gynecologist and the current debate about who owns periods and womanhood. 

    The latter part of our discussion touches on the struggles with ADHD and bipolar medication, focusing on Carla's personal experience with Adderall. We navigate through the consequences of the 'highs' and 'lows' of medication and the importance of consistency. You will also get insights on financial literacy, budgeting, and the various avenues for accessing education. Don't miss out on this episode, where we talk about real-life experiences and challenges, providing a platform for you to learn and grow.

    Bible Verse: Psalm 23: 1-4

    EP 214: Should I Get a Doula?

    This week I am joined by the founder of Black Mom Blog and pioneer of black motherhood and self-care Shanica Boswell. You’ll hear about the shaming of single mothers sending their child to stay with their fathers, the benefits of a doula, and trying to have a natural birth after having a C-section.

    This episode isn’t only for women with babies or who are currently pregnant, but it’s an episode for everyone to get an inside look at the journey and obstacles or pregnancy and parenting.

    EP 210: Embracing Identity, Building Boundaries, and Paternity Tests feat Dexty

    I've always believed that if opportunity doesn't knock, build a door. This episode with Dex swings that door wide open as we revel in the tales of our entrepreneurial spirit, which took root in childhood candy sales and blossomed into career advancements achieved through sheer tenacity. We share a laugh over our methods of carving out our own spaces and touch on the not-so-secret ingredients to success: emotional intelligence and networking.

    A simple reminder that playing the cards we're dealt with strategic thinking and assertive action can lead to creating the opportunities we seek.

    we also dive into the emotional complexities of family dynamics, from the discovery of surprising ancestry to the intricacies of navigating relationships with estranged family members.
