Argh U Mad!?!

Sometimes the reminder you need comes from the most unexpected place.

A baby's voice during church service.A conversation that makes you stop and reflect. Wrching someone publicly choose a new a path. Even realizing that your child is growing into a completely different season oflife.

This episode is really about gratitude- for the seasons we're still gaining, and the signs that remind us to pay attention.

A conversation with a member of my community also reminded me of something important:sometimes the questions we ask can help someone see themselves dfferently. that moment remnded me of my callig- creating spae for reflection, encouragement, and meaningful conversation.

If you've been needing a space to talk through what's on your mind, you can schedule a 1-on-1 support session with me. Sometimes you don't need someone to have all the answers; you may simply need a safe space to slow down, reflect, and be heard.

We talk motherhood, growing children, spiritual wisdom, using our gifts, synchronicity, periods, and the very natural process of simply being human.

It's Saturday night and we're talking about whatever caught our attention this week! 🎙️

In this episode of Argh U Mad, I'm covering a mix of entertainment, current events, financial news, politics and comedy — with my own mindful commentary along the way.

💍 Coco Jones & Donovan Mitchell — Congratulations to the newlyweds! I'm talking about Coco Jones' marriage and the celebrity wedding that caught my attention.

🌍 Botswana & African News — A viral moment involving Botswana's president leads me into a conversation about marriage, relationships and the idea that people should be able to leave a union when it no longer works for them.

🎓 Student Loans — What's happening with the SAVE repayment plan? What should borrowers be paying attention to? I share what I found while researching student loan repayment options and why borrowers should check their federal student loan accounts.

🗳️ 2026 Midterm Elections — If you've been asking, "What's up with the midterms?" let's talk about it. I discuss why the 2026 elections matter, what positions are up for election and the policies that could directly affect our everyday lives.

😂 Mad Funny: Leslie Jones — We lighten things up with Leslie Jones, comedy, her journey and why I love seeing Black women embrace themselves and continue evolving.

This episode is part of the current Argh U Mad format where I take the headlines and conversations catching my attention and add my own perspective — because sometimes we need to pause, think and actually talk about what's happening around us.

Whoopi Goldberg, Keke Palmer, Claressa Shields, Amanda Seales, Tasha K, ChatGPT privacy and the Gorilla Glue Lady?! Yeah… we had a LOT to talk about. 👀

For this episode of Argh U Mad, I took the podcast outside and shared my thoughts on some of the conversations making noise across entertainment, celebrity culture, relationships, media and technology.

First, I'm talking about Whoopi Goldberg's appearance on Keke Palmer's podcast, "Baby, This Is Keke Palmer." I share what stood out to me from their conversation, including Whoopi's thoughts on creating what you need, women moving forward, trailblazing, storytelling and why we have to continue telling our own stories.

Then we get into Claressa Shields, Papoose and Remy Ma, including Claressa's response after being questioned about dating a married man. I share my perspective on accountability, public figures and why I don't believe every situation needs a clapback.

Next up: Amanda Seales and Tasha K. After watching their interview and hearing the conversation surrounding it, I explain why I actually appreciated the connection between the two women—but why Amanda's reaction afterward left me disappointed.

And then it's time for Mad Tech 🤖.

We're talking about ChatGPT privacy, sharing AI conversations, and the things we should consider before putting personal information into AI tools or publicly sharing our chats.

And because apparently we weren't done yet… we're also talking about the Gorilla Glue Lady and Tasha K, including the apology that came out of that conversation.

This is Argh U Mad — commentary, culture, conversations and mindful perspectives from a Black woman's point of view.

So tell me: Which conversation would you have handled differently?

Usher got rejected. Ye's concert numbers sparked conversation. Student loan forgiveness had everybody asking questions. Dick Gregory caught my attention. And LeBron James is bringing the memes to Philadelphia. 😂

Welcome back to Argh U Mad, where we look at the headlines through a different lens—because the story is one thing, but the perspective is everything.

In this episode, I'm talking about the conversations making their way through entertainment, pop culture, sports, and everyday life, including:

🎤 Usher getting rejected onstage — and what that moment says about the changing relationship between celebrities and their audiences.

💰 Ye's concert numbers — including a correction to information I initially shared in this episode. Consider this your reminder that sometimes the conversation continues after the recording.

🎓 Student loan forgiveness — because when everyone is celebrating, I still want to know what the latest developments actually mean.

🎬 Dick Gregory — exploring the comedian, activist, and thinker whose work has recently had me paying closer attention.

🏀 LeBron James and Philadelphia — plus the internet doing what the internet does best with the memes.

This isn't about telling you what to think. It's about giving you something to think about.

As my birthday approached, I found myself returning to the beach for another moment of reflection. What began as a quiet afternoon by the ocean became a conversation about self-care, relationships, motherhood, discernment, and the life-changing decisions we often don't think about until experience teaches us differently.

Inspired by a conversation surrounding marriage and parenting that I listened to on "Unwine with Tasha K. I explore what it means to be intentional with our choices, protect our peace, and remain mindful of the legacy we're creating.

If you're navigating relationships, healing, or simply seeking a moment to pause and reflect, I hope this conversation meets you exactly where you are.

No studio. No traditional setup. Just the ocean, my journal, and a moment of mindfulness.

In this beachside episode of the Argh U Mad Podcast, I reflect on a simple reminder: there are no shortcuts to heaven.

From relationships, marriage, and protecting yourself as a woman to self-reflection and recognizing when life keeps telling you, "Stop it," this conversation moves wherever the spirit leads.

I share my thoughts on 50 Cent's documentary recognition, Tasha K's perspective on marriage and womanhood, and why our icons—including Brandy—deserve the space to be human.

Then, the conversation turns to Black women, dark skin, natural hair, and my nearly 12-year loc journey.

There is beauty in the stages.

There is beauty in starting from the bottom.

And there is power in refusing to let outside noise trick you out of your position.

To my Black women: never forget that you are beautiful the way God created you.

⚠️ A quick audio note: this episode was recorded live on the beach. My streaming service used my phone microphone instead of my plugged-in mic, so you will hear wind and natural beach sounds throughout the recording. The conversation is still audible, and I hope the ocean adds something special to this moment.

Welcome to Thoughtful Thursday.

The Last African Nation Standing | Ghana vs. Colombia | FIFA World Cup 2026 Reaction

This wasn't just another football match.

As the final African nation remaining in the FIFA World Cup, Ghana carried the hopes of millions across the continent and throughout the diaspora. In this live reaction, I take you through the emotional final 30 minutes as the Black Stars fought to keep their World Cup journey alive against Colombia.

From discussing the time difference and what it may have meant for Ghana's performance, to reacting to Colombia's relentless pressure, key substitutions, and the disallowed second goal that kept hope alive just a little longer, this episode captures the highs, lows, and raw emotions of supporting your team when everything is on the line.

We also reflect on:

• What Ghana did well throughout the tournament.
