Send us a text "In the symphony of distant voices, two strangers embarked on a serendipitous journey through the ethereal wires of connection. Over the subtle hum of the phone line, laughter became the bridge that spanned the gap between their separate worlds. Through the alchemy of conversation, they unraveled tales of life's undulating tapestry – the crests of joy, the troughs of sorrow. Yet, at...

Send us a text 365 little days. But it can change your whole life. This episode is so special to me already and I hope the people that were part of it feel the same. We laughed, we cried, we laughed some more. It's easy to focus on the bad in the world but we must remember that we got love and because of that, we are rich! Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone there and some that could...

Send us a text Power to the people. Power to all people. Power to my people. There can never be peace until the past & present injustices are rectified, or at least attempted. The earth will always be unsettled until that day comes. Godspeed, Africa!

Send us a text What does that omnipresent term "financial freedom" really mean? It may mean something different to everyone but you must figure out what it is to you. Without the fundamentals in finances, you very well could end up right where you started, or worse. They say most people when they make a buck, they spend 10, we've all been that person, but which of us will change?  "I cannot afford...

Send us a text Below are some of my favorite things I’ve learned about money, some I wrote, most I didn’t, hope you enjoy the episode…….. You can acquire money but if you don’t know what to do with it and how to grow it then you will find a way to lose it……..

Send us a text It’s 1:43AM, December 31st, 2022. I just finished this episode. This one is instantly one of my favorite things I’ve ever put together. I don’t want to say too much more than that. I hope you enjoy this half as much as I enjoyed piecing it together and hearing the final product. I’m so grateful for life, “I swear it by the old gods and the new,” adieu and anew all in one. Welcome 23...

I know they had no idea what would come of what we made b...

Send us a text Mise en place is a French culinary phrase which means "putting in place" or "gather". It refers to the setup required before cooking.  YOU MUST RESPECT PUTTING EVERYTHING IN ITS RIGHT PLACE.

Send us a text Who & what is God to you? How does God talk to you? Is it through a number, a billboard, a song, or perhaps a TikTok. Is God in all the things you are connected to most in this world? Does God have a gender? Does your life path number bring you closer to God? What color is your Jesus? Join us as we tackle these lighthearted dinner convos for all to hear and think about what they thi...

Send us a text In the bio of the podcast, it talks about how one of our main driving forces is the disparity that exists between the African-American community and others. While the issues have persisted for far too long and have been tackled from those far more qualified, we think it’s important for all of us to have these conversations, and have them often; if we are going to make headway. The t...

Send us a text We talk about this in the episode, but friendship relationships aren’t regarded with the same seriousness as romantic relationships and that’s a shame, cause it has the potential to hurt us just as bad when it goes wrong. Add “Black” to the conversation and it takes a different angle. This is just two friends hashing out their past mistakes and trying to find ways to maintain connec...

Send us a text I take great pride in planning birthday gatherings, in many ways, not just to commemorate another year of life, but to celebrate the people who currently hold space in my life, it’s always interesting to see how the personnel shifts in some ways and remains constant in others. Some months back I first told a couple of the friends you’ll hear on this episode about this Japanese term...

Send us a text We must each find our way to cope in this world. All living things will transition into another form. Mourn and honor and proceed, you have no choice. We need to hold space for our past selves, there is much to learn from them. We share years and beds with people who we consider dead to us when it’s over. I hate that. Love hard and try to remember harder and make art.  _____________...

Send us a text I saw something recently about us spending most of our adult lives un-learning things we were taught by people who didn't know much about said thing. I don't know if any of this holds true more than the subject of money. They said if you are born in extreme poverty, that you have a 4% chance of making it out of it. The first thing you must change is your mind or it doesn't matter ho...

Send us a text I shot this episode last month at my uncle’s place, 574 Restaurant & Lounge, with the help of my cousin, Cindy, thank you. In the episode we cover fear and what it does to hopes and dreams. We talk about the cemetery being filled with all the unrealized ambitions of people who thought they had more time. I need to do all the things I want to do, to be fully used up, to be UZADU. If...
