Sips with Garlz: Life Thoughts & Shenanigans

This episode is raw and unedited. It's a personal conversation out loud voicing my headspace over recent events with relationships that came to an end.

This episode I give a bit of insight on why I've been m.i.a and what's happened since the last episode in February.

Raw thoughts about the halftime show. Thinking about the melting pot of home. How ridiculously ignorant people choose to be. Also super excited that Haiti is in the Winter Olympics this year!! Proud Haitian moment.

Today's episode highlights Halloween shenanigans for the Mr and myself. People and couples needing to prioritize occasions and events just for them. It's okay to support but put yourselves first once and a while. Not waiting almost a year like we did. Also touching on the rush for Christmas needs to stop the minute it's November. What happened to being thankful and enjoying the autumn/...

Recovery for gallbladder removal was worse than I anticipated compared to what I was informed. Lots of tears and thought while recovering and thinking about this shutdown.

Recently furloughed due to the shutdown just 2 days before I'm supposed to have surgery to remove my gallbladder. It's a lot to deal with but I'm trying to stay positive.

In this episode I discuss the recent bout of loneliness I had that made me come to a realization about how things have changed in my life and how I worked through it and/or need to work through them more.

We’re getting real about what it means to take accountability when you’ve done someone wrong. It’s not about guilt trips or shame—it’s about growth, humility, and owning your part without excuses. From learning how to apologize with intention to facing the consequences of your actions, we’re sipping on truth today. Whether you’re ready to make amends or still sitting with your mistakes, this one’s...

Opening up about my 2 year post-op appointment and how things from the past have affected how my mindset worked. What could've been self sabotage but turned into more self love.

We’re talking all about setting boundaries and demanding respect — especially from family, friends, and in-laws. From saying “no” without guilt to protecting your marriage from outside opinions, this is your reminder that choosing peace isn’t disrespect — it’s self-respect .

Approaching 2 years post-op and how this journey has helped me learn to respect myself even more than before.

Let's talk mental health. It's okay to talk to someone. It's NOT telling your business. It's talking through what you're going through and how you're feeling. It's okay not to be okay.

Let's talk Pride. I went to my first pride last weekend. Be YOU.

Don't ever let anyone dim YOUR light to make theirs appear brighter.

Talking about what led to my decision and a bit of how the journey has been thus far.

The calm before the storm, the last 30 days before the wedding were ghetto. Lost a vendor and was down a bridal party member. Things seemed bleek but took a turn for the better when you have the right people in your ear and supporting you.

I'm Garlz & welcome to Sips with Garlz: Life Thoughts & Shenanigans. I'll be talking about a variety of things from a mix of personal experiences & then some. Allow me to introduce myself & stick around for the shenanigans.
