Keena’s Korner

Sis, it’s time for us to be a little more selfish! Society expects us to always clean up the mess. We’re expected to make sure everyone around us comes first, thus leaving us last to look after. Question is: who’s going to look out for us when we’ve devoted so much time into pouring into everyone else? We make sure everyone is good while our cup is next to empty. So who’s pouring into your cup? Yo...

Forgiveness is hard! 🗣️ What’s harder is forgiving someone who has never apologized. What we must remember is forgiveness is for us; not for the other person. You deserve to live in peace and not wait on the day someone will give you any inkling that they are remorseful or sorry. Acknowledge it, accept it, forgive them, and move on, just as they have! You can live in peace or pieces! What do you c...

Life is not a fairytale. It’s very cliché, but it’s true. You must understand that even those you love have the ability to hurt you. If situations are fixable, we should work on fixing them. The reality is, “standing on business” will have a lot of us lonely forever. Just as God extends grace, mercy, and forgiveness, I believe we should do the same. I DO NOT mean staying in a place where you’re co...

Closing out season five and for my 50th episode, I took questions from my followers, some questions even live! I gave my fans and supporters a chance to ask me anything and they did. Tune in to hear what was asked and to see how I responded. Thank you for your constant support as we keep trucking past my 50th episode! 🥳❤️

This week was very significant for me. For three years I’ve been single. God put me through this test, so I’d have a testimony. Well here I am to share it with you and to tell you how I got over! I’m here to let you know that it’s possible to overcome, no matter what’s thrown at you! I did NOT expect to get emotional for this episode, but I did. I was reminded of the pain I felt and how God kept m...

Isn’t it funny how we think that love has to hurt in order for the commitment to be real? There will be tough times, but let’s be honest; any form of abuse or infidelity is not considered “up’s and downs”. A lot of it is manipulation, us accepting the bare minimum, not knowing our worth, having low self-esteem, and feeling that we must be in a relationship. At no point in your relationship should...

Because you’ve forgiven someone doesn’t mean you must allow them in your life. However; you should love and give grace like the Bible says. But you must understand that some people are truly toxic, so you’ll find that in order for you to heal, they might not need access to you! As I’ve stated in a previous episode, sometimes it’s best to heal out of or away from the environment that hurt you!

Do you find it interesting how many people require things from others that they don’t have or possess themselves? No, just me? Well if you feel anything like me, I’d say that it’s very common, but insane to expect what you can’t provide. Some women have unrealistic “requirements”, while some men want a traditional woman when they are, in fact, not a traditional man.

Is it possible to heal from the same place that hurt you? Sometimes you may have to “move”, and not necessarily physically. However; in order to promote and encourage healing, you must create a safe space for yourself to begin the healing process. During this live video, a listener said “it’s hard to let go when you’re comfortable.” Stick around to the end to see how I addressed this comment!

Your relationship/marriage can be private without being a secret. Know what to share and what to keep to yourself, or simply between you and your partner. What outsiders don’t know, they can’t speak on and attempt to destroy! Let’s talk about it!

**FANS CHOICE** You requested it, so here we are! For this particular episode, I was asked to speak on this subject! On this episode I’ll speak on ways we can find happiness and keep it! Always remember that a positive mindset works wonders! Happiness depends on what’s happening, but when you find joy, the happiness is inevitable and will always reside within you!

As a fan’s suggestion, I’ll be speaking on why men cheat and why it’s expected to be accepted. The double standard is when women do the same, the act is seen as pure disgust and disgrace. So, can men take what they dish? Can they handle a dose of their own medicine? Tune in and let’s chat!

Sis, you’re not dumb, nor are you stupid! On this episode I simply want you to ask yourself do you think you deserve better. I want you to work on your self-worth and KNOW that you deserve the best! Understand that the best won’t come while we accept the bare minimum. Also, the best won’t come while we stay with the one who keeps hurting us. Tune in and catch this lesson, sisters!

***FANS CHOICE*** You requested it, so here we are! For this particular episode I was asked to speak on this subject. Closing out season four is another great topic: FORGIVENESS. If you've been hurt, yes, you should forgive. Remember that the forgiveness is for you. Forgiving only helps your healing process. You want to be at a place where you can move on happily, with no ill feelings, while genui...

** FANS CHOICE** You requested it, so here we are! For this particular episode I was asked to speak on this subject. Here on this matter, I can relate. It’s very true what you hear: strangers do support more than family and friends. There are many reasons why you may never gain support and respect from those closest to you. That is NOT your concern! Don’t let it bother you! You just need to keep g...

There’s such a negative stigma around women who choose to date multiple men at once. The “traditional” route is the way. Dating gives you an opportunity to explore your options and even learn more about yourself. Give it a listen!

Often, men aren't open to being sensitive, soft, and vulnerable. Usually, these things are what most men associate with femininity. There are many reasons why a lot of men don't open up, and most can be corrected. As women, we should be his safe space, where he feels he can be himself completely. Especially to the one who's willing!

A listener sent me a social media post involving this topic and thought it would be a great discussion, so here we are! On this episode I'll discuss the stereotypes around bitter "baby mamas". Bitter "baby mamas" do exist, but that is not the case in all situations. Some of the fathers, in fact, are bitter. Furthermore, some mothers are simply fed tf up and want more for th...

***FANS CHOICE*** You requested it, so here we are! For this particular episode, I was asked to speak on this subject. On this episode I'll address healthy ways to overcome a divorce, while still living life. I’ll also discuss feelings you may experience during this time. Remember: if God took it away, it wasn't a loss. Through every hardship, there's a lesson. We simply have to learn...

Self-esteem, personal issues, and even past traumas we don't heal can affect relationships. Going through hurtful commitments makes us feel that chivalry is dead and that no good humans still exist. I'm here to tell you the complete opposite! Good people still exist. Heal your wounds, love on you, and you just might find that there's a great person out there to match your work and ener...

At times we all need a little motivation. We need to hear that all will be okay, if only we keep pressing. It's hard to g...

So, on this episode I'll provide some insight on how we can try and find a healthy balance while...

***FANS CHOICE*** You requested it, so here we are! For this particular episode, I was asked to speak on this subject. No matter if it's family or a romantic connection, if it's toxic, let it be! Toxicity is draining, so don't keep choosing to receive negative treatment hoping that it'll get better. You have a choice. If they don't respect you or your boundaries, it's time to reconsider!

Closing out season three will be this episode where it's YOUR time to shine! All of my followers, listeners, supporters, fans, and subscribers of Keena's Korner Podcast, were encouraged to ask me any questions and I answer it live. Whether it was advice sought or a personal question for me, I answered it! Join in to hear questions supporters asked and to see what advice I gave!

Often you hear many women say that they accept and tolerate bad behavior and toxicity because of their children. At some point, most women have stayed in an unhealthy environment simply so their children have both parents in the household. Do you think it's worth it? Tune in and hear my thoughts!
