Dear Younger Me,

In this first episode of A Real Negus Therapy, we begin with what every man of God must face — his story. “Testify” isn’t about showing off or sounding holy; it’s about being honest. Honest about what shaped you, what broke you, and how God met you in those broken places.

This conversation is a reminder that before we can lead families, serve communities, or pour into others, we have to first acknowledge where we’ve been. Every scar, every mistake, every victory — it all becomes part of the testimony that reveals God’s grace.

In this episode, we talk about what it really means to give your story back to God — not to live in shame, but to walk in freedom. We unpack how silence can trap men in cycles of guilt and how speaking truth can begin the process of healing. It’s not a sermon — it’s a dialogue between experience and redemption.

Expect real conversation. Expect conviction. Expect moments that make you reflect on how far you’ve come and where God is still working in you. This is therapy for men who know they’re called to something greater, but still wrestle with the weight of the past.

“Testify” sets the tone for what this platform is about — not perfection, not performance, but process. The process of becoming whole, one truth at a time.

One Love A(l)lways.

Welcome to A Real Negus' Thoughts — a space built for men to heal, lead, and grow.
In this introduction, I lay the foundation: what it means to be a respectful, empathetic, authentic, loving king, and how faith, wisdom, and real conversations can transform not just your mind, but your family and your legacy.

This isn’t surface talk — it’s restoration for the soul, rooted in the Word and lived experience.

I go by Al.

Newborn baby = Lack of Sleep = A RANDOM RANT.

Held back for a while on posting this?

Apologize in advance for the language.

BUT...

What is everyone thinking about?

What is going on in the world?

What kind of future are we building?

Make this sh** make sense bro!?

Hey man, it's cold outside, so no Balcony.

And I'm a dad; ain't no privacy anywhere except... el bano lol.

Just reflecting and talking to myself about some recent experiences, faith, fatherhood, relationships, and societal norms. On this journey GOD's Word has been the guide through the challenges.

Faith over Fear. Trust GOD 's plans even through your own doubts.

Can't change the world till we see it for what it is and what it isn't.

I'm just sitting on the balcony thinking...

Faith, personal growth, family dynamics, and modern society's challenges

Do we have enough information to make informed decisions about our lives?

Community and spirituality play a vital role in shaping one's life. I don't think we can incur anymore of the impact of broken families and lack of HIS Spirit guiding us.

We got to return to God’s instructions and principles; TOGETHER.

We must be proactive in building a supportive village and creating a better world for future generations through accountability, responsibility, and strong family units.

One Day at a Time. One, Love Al(l)ways.
