This week I share another story titled, “My Mom” along with author commentary. Being a parent is not easy, especially if you are doing it by yourself. But most parents do the best they can with what they have and that’s something I had to reconcile after harboring resentment. I hope and pray this story blesses someone. Have an amazing week!

In this episode, I continue in sharing the next two stories in my book, “Beautiful I am Colored” (available for purchase soon). In “Master’s Now What”, I talk about love of learning but also that academics/degrees can get you far, but it is not the only contributing factor to living a purposeful life. In the segment titled “Growth Continued”, I talk about an instance where I experienced personal growth when I literally had to sit across from the other woman.

In this episode, I share an exceptionally intimate story about a procedure I had in 1996. Please be advised that this episode may be triggering, but I pray that I have delivered it in a way that is loving and caring.

As promised, this episode is a follow up to the story titled “Marlon”. If you haven’t listened to that story yet, you may want to review it before listening to the interview. Marlon shares his perspective about how we met and provides some relationship insight. Enjoy!

This week I share two additional stories from my book, Beautiful I am Colored. “Season of No” describes a time when I had to make a pivot to step back and focus on what was next for me, personally and career wise. “Marlon” is the story about how my husband and I met. Later this week an additional bonus episode will be made available where I interview him about the story, so stay tuned for that.

This week, I share two additional stories from my book, Beautiful, I am Colored. In “Betrayal”, I talk about how I found out that I was being cheated on. “Hitting Bottom” is a blog post originally written in 2015 that I added to the book. In that story, I share a low point I had reached, but it was also a pivotal turning point in me doing deeper work on myself.

In this bonus material episode, I share insights about the book by conducting a self interview. Yes, you read that correctly. I interviewed myself. I hope you enjoy it.

In this episode, the author reads the first few stories in her debut book, Beautiful, I am Colored. Some of the stories shared are traumatic, so listeners should be cautious of listening when underage children are present.
