Talk Time with Hope

Ok, this gal is about to turn 50! Yes, I know, I know, but you sound and look so young! Awe chucks, thanks guys! But seriously, you will never know grateful I am to STILL be here. Turning 50 means I am celebrating my 9th birthday from when I was first diagnosed with late stage ovarian cancer. I looked at the statistics the other day and it shows that 15,000 women die each year from the disease. Wh...

The time has come, the day is here! How refreshing to hear a message of unity. To hear a leader speak clearly and a way we can all understand. I mean great start, sir! 😉 And Kamala Harris, just wow! Looking forward to seeing what good will come from this new administration. And praying the bad folks out there wanting to overthrow our Democracy will be caught and face the consequences to their act...

Alright day 9 and feeling fineISH. As with all chemo, especially for late stage cancer, there will be side effects. And I gots them! Very glad I was able to speak where I can be understood, hopefully. 😉 If talking about cancer and chemo scares you please let it scare you to listen to your body and see a doctor if signs and symptoms persists for more than two weeks. Don't be like me, be better and...

Guys I'm (as those that have listened in know) very passionate about things and what happened in D.C. can't and shouldn't be forgotten just because it's over. It's not about just moving on. We didn't do that on 9/11 or any other time our country was attacked. And make no mistake about it, it was attacked -- from within. Home grown terrorists, even if not everyone sees it that way. I did cycle 1 of...

I didn't want to talk politics and really I'm not. What has happened today is insanity! Beyond insane! It's unconscionable! All of this was incited and orchestrated by trump and his people. And it is sad! I'm saddened by this. And angered by it too! This is not what the conservative Christian side is about. Or should not be about. This is horrible! Listen in for more. 👂🏾 So, tomorrow I start rou...

My apologies for not doing any episodes for over a month. To say the end of 2020 was bad is an understatement. The surgery to remove cancer was a success; however, on November 29th I lost my best friend, my rock, my prayer warrior, my mom. And she died from complications due to covid-19. 😡😩🥺😢😔 It happened suddenly and unexpectedly. It devastated all of us. And it has taken me some time to get...

Today is the day! Time to get this cancer out...once and for ALL! Thanks for your prayers and well wishes. And love and light. Truly appreciate it! Now go and celebrate Thanksgiving BUT please don't put yourself or others at risk with big parties. Please. Let's wait until next year and do it right and BIG! Covid19 is still here and I'd life all y'all to be here next year...when Covid19 is looking...

Not a long episode tonight. So did you hear about the Actor made the movie honey I shrunk the kids get attacked a New York? Like he got attacked assaulted from some stranger a New York! But thank the Lord the attacker or alleged attacker got caught. Yay! Just wanted to give y'all an update on my health. And tell y'all to please be careful with covid-19 getting way out of hand right now. Stay safe....

Ok, what the what the friggin what is going on the white house??? Seriously guys, I could not not talk about what #notmypotus is continuing to do. He is continuing to act like he didn't lose the election. Even thought the more they investigate the voting the more they find he IN FACT lost! More votes are being counted FOR Biden NOT Trump. Yet, yet, he is still not wanting to concede. And his admin...

My Spunkey (my adorable cat) was laying on my chest when I recorded yesterday's episode SO after listening to it I thought it too much. Love her. But the heavyish breathing and purring was not ideal. Hence trying it again. This one should be better...should. 😉 Talking about POTUS #46 y'all! And how excited I am about the results of the election. And give it up for Kamala Harris! How freakin aweso...

It's election night! Did you vote? Spoke to passengers today about voting and some did and some didn't. Why though? We needs to do better with informing our youth so they can become adults who vote. I truly believe that. Even if I didn't speak about it in this episode. And I don't know about you but not sure if I'll be able to get good sleep tonight. Which is silly cause it could take a good week...

So, had lunch with my BFF in Dallas. And wanted to show her how Anchor podcast works. Then she became my guest. So cool, right?! She is super cool and she is doing good stuff this year and has goals to do great stuff in 2021! And trust me she will achieve those goals! Also letting y'all know that despite the not so great news about my health. I will fight. And I will keep my faith along with the s...

I, sadly, am sharing that my Monkey passed away on Oct 6th. 😿😔 I voted early. You still have time to do the same. Met two cool dudes. Love meeting young folks who are so cool.

Ok, welcome back! This is episode 1, part 2. Giving y'all a health update. Talking about #notmypotus and that cra cra debate between him and Joe Biden. Like what the what? 😱 And the fly on Mike Pence's head during the VP debate. The memes are hilarious! #notmypotus getting covid19 DID NOT HUMBLE the manchild. Ugh! Why do people say "you're good"? And holy cow my new upstairs neighbors are so very...

Holy cow, it's good to be back! Welcome to season 5 guys! This is going to be a 2 part episode, so buckle up or buckle in for it's gonna get bumpy! Got so much to talk about so much to share with you. Yes, it's gonna be about voting. Yes, it's gonna be about some politics. Yes, and it will be about just in how I am doing in general. :)

This season had 21 episodes, in honor of my life at 21. What an amazing time that was with just as amazing people in it. I get why young adults want to go out and party. I remember how fun it was. BUT today the world is dealing with a pandemic that hasn't happened in 100 years! Maybe putting off going out where people are not social distancing and wearing masks 😷 is best? But not in America. Trie...

Met yet another cool gal! This time one who is from Philly! Oh, got spoken to quite RUDELY to today. What caused it? You guessed it, the freakin MASK! And on top of that, the dude said I was trying to be "white" - like really? And hey, I saw a chiropractor today. I may start to feel better in the near future. Thank you Jesus! Chronic pain is so not fun!

Found out Justice Ginsburg passed away, from complications of pancreas cancer. What a woman who did great things in this world! RIParadise Justice Ginsburg! ***Even though I don't know how to add it to this episode. 🙈) Ok, do did an ad to help motivate people to vote. There is no momentary gain to be received doing it either. I just would like people to get informed and get out and vote! ✊🏾✌🏾...

September 15th is a date I'll never forget. It's the day I joined the US Navy back in 1989! Wow! Talking about littering! Why do we still do it? Let's stop being a part of the planet, guys! Please! And I met a cool gal from Philly today. #bestpartofridesharedriving

Gotta pay tribute to 9/11. Let is never forget! ❤🇺🇲 I saw FOUR construction workers who happen to be females. Yes, four! Something I've never seen before. AND I met a 16 year old female sports trainer -- trainer for football players. Like how awesome is that! Guys, women are finally doing things that weren't always allowed. How awesome! 👍🏽✊🏾👊🏾💪🏾

Well it is...September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. And sadly too many people still don't know this. NINE years after I was diagnosed people still are not aware. And that, though disappointing, is what motivates me to keep advocating. Today I share about my spreading awareness and a little about my story as a two time ovarian cancer survivor. Hope it will inspire you to do some (much needed)...

Yours truly got an EXPENSIVE citation for not properly stopping at a stop sign. Reall?! Looks like I'll be taking a safety driving course -- which is still a hefty price. Gotta keep my clean driving record, well, clean! Ok, so what is up with people talking on the phone BUT not actually talking? 🤔 And lastly, the latest is about #notmypotus (AKA Trump) saying some not so favorable things about mi...

So yours truly got told, by an older caucasian dude (this time...well actually most times this has happened it's been caucasian dudes or gals 🤔) that he thought I was a guy cause I pulled up wearing a ball cap and having short hair oh and with sunglasses. I'm tired of the continued society expectations of what a woman "should look like." Ugh! I had a biopsy of my right inner cheek, yesterday. Was...

Ok guys, obviously covid19 didn't just last 10 days as one #notmypotus said back in February or March. We has to stay smart by staying safe. Right? Right! Ok, so lately I have noticed people just aren't tipping. I'm talking maybe 5% of my riders tip MEANING 95% of my riders ARE NOT tipping. Now now I know these are trying times BUT my riders are going out and shopping and things that indicate they...

Seriously, I'm enjoying Mike w/his YouTube channel That Chapter. Guy is funny! And his crime stories, wow! Please check him out. So, saw a car with the name "countryman", like why? It's 2020, why name a car that? Like really what is the purpose of it? Thankful the Navy has talked about getting rid of the "man" in its job titles. I got out of the Navy in 1993 and 23 years later they start talking a...
