This production will explore what it really means to live in your truth and own light. There are several showcasings happen get your tickets. The show is for ages 18 and up and has asked audience to come with an open mind as it's not about sexuality as much as it sounds as if it is. Owning who you are is the message.

If you experience anxiety you know it comes in waves. I also say that are like flares. So for me being in a new environment, new people, etc can make me feel a certain way. So I am aware of myself when these times happen.

This week I had a flare at a media event and it wasn't pleasant. I do plan to go there and see if it was the location or just the people or me.

Anxiety can be debilitating but also something you learn to manage over time. I work through my anxiety and don't allow it to stop me from living this life.

Happy Friday and welcome to a new episode of Conversations with Toi. Today we talk about Consistency is key. We all know that but in a world where popularity seem to win, it's important to remember that consistency will take you places that popularity can't sustain.

......

Mean Girls-I had another episode with another mean girl during this week's events. It gets easier as times goes by. For those who have ever met someone online who seems to be about empowering and when you meet them in real life and it don't match-acknowledge it. Understand everyone aren't' who they are. If you encounter them more than one like that-believe them. Believe that they are really mean spirited regardless if it "meant" that way or not.

......

The response in the Uvalde shooting has been trash. The police were sworn to serve and protect and the newest revealed videos are giving coward energy. Prayers continuously to the families and friends affected by this tragedy.

.......

Elon Musk dad, Errol had a baby with his step dad. I am a stepdaughter and ain't no way I am sleeping with my dad. It don't matter if its blood or not its gross and wrong.

....

Show up for yourself daily. Acknowledge when you need to take a step back to gather yourself but show up. Be consistent and make sure that you don't let the cares of the world take you so far down that you fall out the game.

Today we talk our buddy that doesn't want to go home. For me its anxiety and sometimes its depression. How do you deal with a trigger? Is self care enough? If you don't deal with a buddy that doesn't want to go home-how do you treat those who have one? Are you judgmental? Rude? Expect people to respond the way that you do?

Themes of today's episode: anxiety, self care, recap of the 4th, violence that went down this past weekend in Philadelphia

......

We talk about my personal encounter with the violent weekend for the 4th of July holiday celebration

.........

Do we think Brittney Griner is justified in what could be a 10 year sentence?

.......

Can we get to parenting more than being our kids friends? Are we checking into our children's social media? Do you know the lingo enough to know what their short hand texting mean?

...........

Today's drink of the day is Strawberry Smash
