In this eye-opening episode, originally recorded live on Facebook last month, we explore *The Danger of Expectations*—especially in relationships. Before deep, meaningful connection can truly form, expectations can quietly sabotage our chances at authentic intimacy. We take a brief but impactful look at how unchecked assumptions and pressures can cloud judgment, create tension, and prevent real connection from taking root. Whether you're single, dating, or in a long-term relationship, this episode offers a fresh perspective on building relationships.

On this episode, I’m joined by my longtime friend of 15 years, Dominick White. We took a walk down memory lane, laughing (and cringing) at some of the wild stories and unforgettable moments we've shared over the years. From high school antics to the lessons we've picked up along the way, this one is full of nostalgia and real talk.

We also dove into some current events, including our thoughts on the Marvin Sapp offering situation — you already know we had to weigh in on that one. Tune in for good vibes, honest conversation, and a reminder that true friendship stands the test of time.

In this powerful and heartfelt episode, I have the honor of sitting down with Bianca Danielle, known to many as *B Danielle Speaks*. She is the founder of *The Crying Project*, a master life coach, a sought-after speaker, and most importantly — a woman of God who has allowed her story of pain and perseverance to become a beacon of hope for others.

Bianca’s story is one of divine purpose, hard-fought victories, and unwavering faith. She has walked through seasons of darkness, moments where it seemed like everything was falling apart, and times when giving up felt like the only option. But instead of surrendering to defeat, she surrendered to God. Through her tears, she discovered that every heartbreak, every setback, and every moment of doubt was part of a larger story that God was writing for her life — a story of redemption, restoration, and incredible purpose.

In this conversation, Bianca shares the heart behind *The Crying Project* — a ministry and movement designed to let people know that tears are not signs of weakness, but evidence of release and healing. She reminds us that it’s okay to cry, but it’s not okay to quit. Her life is a living testimony that when you allow God into your broken places, He will heal, elevate, and use you to bless others.

Bianca also opens up about her journey as a mother, raising her child with love, wisdom, and faith, even while facing life’s most difficult challenges. Her story will encourage anyone who feels overwhelmed, discouraged, or on the edge of giving up. Whether you’re struggling in your personal life, relationships, parenting, or your faith walk — this conversation will remind you that God sees you, He knows your pain, and He has not forgotten you.

Through the lens of her experiences, Bianca shows us that trials are not the end, but often the beginning of something greater. She challenges listeners to hold on, trust God’s timing, and believe that triumph is on the other side of the tears.

If you’ve been searching for hope… if you need a reminder that your story still matters… if you’re wondering whether God still has a plan for you… this episode is for you.

Let this conversation minister to your heart, lift your spirit, and remind you that what the enemy meant for harm, God can and will turn for good.

**Listen now to be inspired, uplifted, and encouraged by the unstoppable faith and incredible story of Bianca Danielle — proof that when you put your trust in God, no tear is wasted and no story is beyond redemption.**

**Episode Description:**

In this deeply personal episode, I take you back to one of the most pivotal and painful moments of my life — November 30th, 2016, the day my divorce became official. This is not just a story about the end of a marriage, but about the emotional weight, confusion, heartbreak, and self-reflection that came with it.

For the first time, I share in detail what I experienced as I walked through the doors of the courthouse, signed those final papers, and closed a chapter I never imagined would end that way. I talk about the fears I had, the guilt I carried, the questions that haunted me, and the overwhelming sense of failure that followed. But I also open up about the moments of realization — that sometimes, letting go is the only way to find healing.

This episode is raw and vulnerable. I wanted to create a space where I could not only process my journey but also help others who may be facing similar pain. Divorce is often filled with shame and silence, but here, I break that silence and talk honestly about what it feels like to grieve the loss of not just a relationship, but dreams, plans, and a future that will never be.

I also begin to explore how that moment became the start of something new — a process of rediscovering myself, learning from my mistakes, and slowly rebuilding.

If you’ve ever gone through a divorce, are currently going through one, or know someone who is, I invite you to listen in. This is my story, but I believe parts of it will resonate with you too.

🎙️ *Join me as I introduce you to my divorce, and the day that broke me, but also began to reshape me.*

In this powerful live Facebook episode, I open the door to a conversation that so many people quietly reflect on but rarely discuss out loud — *why don’t most people marry their first love?*

We often grow up with the fairytale idea that the first person we fall for will be the person we spend forever with. But real life often tells a different story. In this episode, I unpack the deep emotional, psychological, and sometimes spiritual reasons why so many people walk away from their first love, even if the connection was strong and the feelings were real.

We explore the lessons that first loves teach us — from innocence, excitement, and discovery to heartbreak, immaturity, and unrealistic expectations. I share stories, not just from my personal experiences, but also from conversations I’ve had with others who wrestled with the “what if” of their first love and why they ultimately didn’t choose to build a life with that person.

We talk about timing, emotional growth, the role of family influence, fear of settling, and how sometimes, the first love was meant to shape you — not to stay with you. Many people outgrow the person they once adored, realizing that who you are at 16, 18, or even 22 is not who you will be at 30 or 40.

This episode isn’t just about nostalgia — it’s about healing, understanding, and finding peace with the past. If you’ve ever wondered if you made the right decision or struggled with holding on to memories of a love that didn’t last, this conversation will give you clarity and freedom.

Some first loves are simply teachers on the journey to who you’re really meant to be with.

🎙️ *Tune in, reflect, and let’s talk about why most people don’t end up marrying their first love… and why that’s okay.*

In this special live episode, broadcasted on Facebook, we take an honest and raw look at one of the biggest frustrations of our generation: *why is dating so hard?* If you’ve ever felt discouraged, confused, or exhausted trying to navigate the world of modern dating, you are not alone — and this episode is for you.

I open up about my own experiences and struggles, and we break down the real reasons dating feels so complicated. From inconsistent communication and lack of emotional availability to unrealistic expectations and fear of commitment, we discuss the barriers that so many men and women face when trying to build something meaningful.

We also dive into the impact of past hurts, how social media and dating apps have changed the game, and why people often come into dating with walls up — hoping for love but afraid to risk being vulnerable. On top of that, we address the pressure of timelines, comparison culture, and how sometimes, people aren’t really clear about what they’re looking for in the first place.

But this isn’t just a vent session. I offer perspective shifts, solutions, and practical ways to navigate the dating world with more wisdom and intentionality. Whether you’re single and tired, newly dating, or even healing from past relationships, you’ll find something here that speaks to you.

Dating doesn’t have to feel like a hopeless battlefield — but it does require self-awareness, patience, and learning how to communicate with honesty and grace.

Grab your headphones, take notes if you need to, and let’s tackle this question head-on: *Why is dating so hard… and what can we do about it?*

🎙️ *Listen, share, and join the conversation.*

In this special episode, I take you on a reflective journey — 25 years after the moment that changed everything for me. I revisit the day my heart was broken by the Tabernacle girl, someone I once believed was *the one*. I’ll never forget sitting there, hearing the words that would shake my world: she was getting married, and it was time for me to move on. In that moment, confusion, pain, and rejection collided. I didn’t know what to say, how to feel, or what my next step would be.

But looking back now, I realize that heartbreak was not just an ending — it was the beginning of something beautiful. It was in the silence after that conversation, in those lonely moments of reflection, that the seeds of creativity were planted. That heartbreak birthed the writer and musician in me. The songs I began to write, the words I began to journal, all became therapy and eventually, purpose.

In this episode, I walk you through the thoughts and emotions of that young man — his innocence, his hope, and his sudden crash into reality. Then, I fast forward to today: the lessons learned, the growth experienced, and the gratitude I now have for that very moment I once wished never happened.

For anyone holding on to heartbreak or wondering if they’ll ever recover from loss, this episode is for you. Sometimes the pain we fear will break us is the pain that builds us. Join me as I honor the moment that birthed my creativity and helped shape the man I’ve become — 25 years later.

In this powerful and reflective episode, Coach Bryan dives into a timeless truth — that time waits for no man. Through personal stories, hard lessons, and transparent moments, he explores how procrastination, hesitation, and fear can rob us of opportunities that may never come around again.

This episode challenges listeners to stop waiting for the “perfect moment” and start making intentional decisions today — whether it’s in relationships, personal growth, or pursuing dreams. Coach Bryan also shares how missed moments in his own life became some of his greatest teachers, and why being present, purposeful, and decisive is key to building the future you desire.

Tune in for real talk, encouragement, and a reminder that life won’t slow down — but you can choose to move forward with purpose.

🎙️ *Be inspired, be challenged, and make today count — because time waits for no man.*

Expectations—whether spoken or unspoken—can shape our relationships in ways we don’t always realize. In this episode, I reflect on my journey of saying goodbye to the weight of expectations placed on me by others, particularly in past relationships where women exhausted their demands without ever having a real conversation with me.

Too often, we find ourselves held to standards we never agreed to, forced into roles we never chose, and blamed for failing to meet expectations we were never aware of. But what happens when you finally decide to let go? When you stop carrying the burden of others’ assumptions and start living in alignment with your own truth?

Join me as I share personal experiences, hard-learned lessons, and the freedom that comes with releasing the need to live up to someone else’s version of who you should be. If you've ever felt the pressure of expectations that were never yours to carry, this episode is for you.
