Embracing Discomfort

Is there something you want to spill on the mic. Let me know?

Hope you've grabbed your coffee this morning! Episode 5 is about my favorite place to get coffee. In this episode, I sit down with Dusty Keene in Common Grounds and he gives me a little history of the place and we talk about what makes Common Grounds so special! We talk about the evolution of the place and some exciting things to look forward to. From the local goods displayed throughout the place to the one of a kind blend that can only be found in this coffee shop. Common Grounds is a place for everyone as well as as every animal it seems! Local Businesses are the heart of any community in my opinion and I hope to highlight some of the local places that I stumble upon and get us all on the local business train.

Abby wanted to interview me......and this is basically what happened. 
Abby is simply what I can only describe as a breath of fresh air! In this episode we dive into my story a bit more.....because Abbie is just like me, full of questions. We broach the subject of childhood identity crisis's, political correctness, white privilege, racial unity, authenticity, generational patterns, what can white people do better and the constant theme throughout the entirety of the episode, laughing at the hypocrisy. This episode was such a blast to record and it was one where there wasn't any plan except let's talk and record it. Enjoy this painfully hilarious perspective from two people who simply refuse to allow it to continue. 

Much love

Welcome to another subject to uncomfortably embrace! In this episode I sat down with Ryan, he served in the United States Army and we talked about his experience as well as other veterans of the United States. We broached the subject of racism in the military, veteran suicide, and the culture that is bred in the military in order to serve this country. We dabbled into COVID today in the military, how we can better support of Veterans when they come home, and advice for the people who are considering enlisting. 

Much Love.

The desire to amplify the voices of the commonly unheard has been burning in me for years…. here is how I am doing something to help. I believe the true key to unity is having the ability to step out of our comfort zones and embrace what awaits on the other side. Welcome to my solution that actively pushes me out of my comfort zone! In this episode I speak on who I am and what I hope to accomplish! Enjoy the groundwork to an uphill journey.
