This process is helping me prepare for my last day, and surprisingly is shaping how I live the days in between. Join us for this episode and let's talk about death. . .and life!

In this episode we have a talk about that elephant in the room. What we do when we're speaking up and standing up for justice, equality and what's right and our friends go silent. We get into how we handle these times and what we can do to protect our peace when people disappoint us.

Let's have a conversation. Be sure to leave a comment and share your thoughts.

In this episode, we asked black mommas from all walks of life and various stages of parenthood to write Dear America and Dear Son letters. Their words are glimpses into the the hearts of mothers navigating life for their children amidst two pandemics - a virus and systemic racism. As we reel from the murder of George Floyd, we are hurt, saddened, angry, frustrated and all around, not okay. At the same time, we are hopeful, faithful, determined and committed to being a part of the solution for change.

When my dad died after a battle with cancer, I found three key things that led to a healthy grieving process and kept my sanity in check. In this episode we talk about the big three lessons learned. We all have to walk through grief but how we walk through it can make all the difference.

Two years of holding everything in left me in a heaping mess on the floor, and it all started when Prince died. In part two of the Grief series, we talk about relationships and life-altering changes that started my grief process two years before death came along. It was a learning experience that transformed my perspective and prepared me for the worst day of my life.

In this episode we explore grief. Whether it's recognizing it, handling it or dealing with others who are grieving, we all experience grief throughout our lives. I share my journey of my father's battle with cancer and how I realized that my grief wasn't just about death. This is part one of a multi-part series.

Today's show is a special episode in salute to those in the 'hood by birth, adoption, circumstance or association. We get into how cancer revealed my mother's strength in a way I'd never seen before, and I pour the tea with a confession about how motherhood almost destroyed me.
