Tamara til the break of Dawn

Recently Janae (my youngest daughter) revealed to me the reason why she shut me out after her dad was killed. Ultimately that conversation helped me to realize how my own wounds from my bio-dad are causing me to walk in fear, and not even realistically be open to a relationship...  Also... Since these feelings have bubbled back to the surface... I guess I'll discuss my secret crush again... L...

**Explicit Language Warning** First and foremost, shoutout to the Rona for bonding me with my Pod Sisters (Audrey, Autumn, JBoog and Khris) and getting the Podcast Happy Hour on and poppin!

Khris is giving y’a...

Recently I had a much needed conversation with my good friend, Jason.

This is part one of the series “My people, my people...”. The intent of this series, is to educate those who are open to learning so that we can move forward in unity. “Blue lives matter” is often one of the rebuttals to “black lives matter”, but what exactly is a “blue life”? I will be discussing this, and giving some insight into WHY this is hurtful and offensive when people are speaking up abou...

One of the biggest things currently frustrating me, is people’s lack of compassion towards the next human being. I just don’t understand how someone can turn off their compassion, or pick and choose when they care. Tune in to hear more about this as I try to wrap my mind around the ways that we’re all seeing that black lives clearly don’t matter...  Here’s one of the articles discussing the A...

This episode is dedicated to my cousin Amber. The other day she brought a life into this world, and lost hers in the process. My mind can’t seem to comprehend how that makes sense..... I don’t think I’ll ever understand death, and sometimes I don’t think we’re supposed to understand it. But in this episode I‘m just getting the stuff off my heart that I’m feeling while recording..... **If you are i...

#Thoughtstoponder of the week: is it outdated to say that a man is the one who should initiate pursuit? I definitely had to get some input from social media for this one, and it was interesting to hear what everyone had to say. But uh......Rona Bae where you at tho?!?!?!

In this episode I share what I’ve learned about podcasting, such as: the dope community of podcasters/networking; how much work it is to promote; and the importance of staying in my lane....to name a few. I also talk about what I’ve learned about myself throughout this journey. I didn’t realize how important it is for me to feel like I’m being heard....I hop...
