On this podcast we, (De'Andrea Reese and I) discuss yet another hurtful, brutal and devastating murder of the 20-year-old United States Army soldier.  This is yet another horrific situation that the family and those who understand right from wrong are seeking justice for.  We are praying for the strength, comfort and peace within this family as they start this new path of what normal is for them.  #JusticeforVanessa #HerLifeMattered

JEKALYN CARR - YOU WILL WIN

This is your winning season!  Do not be discouraged by the lack of support, the lack of encouragement or the lack of affirmations.  Know that Romans 8:31 says, What then shall we say to these things?  If God is for us, who is against us?  Support may not come in the form of what you may want, but God is for you.  Encouragement may not come in the form of what you may desire, but God is for you.  People may not affirm you but God will always affirm you.  You are His son, you are His daughter and He says this is your winning season!  Get up and start winning!

There's no honor among thieves deals with situations of hypocrisy, sabotage and immorality as it pertains to leading.  Do you have a desire to look out for self only or are you always searching for ways to make the people around you become better?  My heart's posture is that we learn to lead from a place of righteousness and not spend so much time treading the line.

So often we experience wickedness in high places.  In places of employment, within our government (be it local and national) and sadly enough it takes place right within the midst of believers.  Do I always think it is intentional...No but I do feel it still needs to be pulled down and cast out just the same.  Join me as I talk about Wickedness in High Places, incorporate scripture and pray against every stronghold within those spheres of influence.  We are a people that is more powerful than that.  I have so much to say and condensed it but my prayer is that it awakens something on the inside of you.

With so much talk going on about Coronavirus (COVID-19), there are orders from state to state to stay at home/work safe, maintain six feet of distance, wash your hands, so on and so forth but to my knowledge, I have heard very little on what to do for people battling mental illness let alone during all of this.  Have extra  been taken to keep someone from battling mental illness from being pushed to their limit?  Listen as I speak with Magan Blair on how she has dealt with depression constructively and some suggestions we came up with that may help get you through your lowest lows.  Mental illness is nothing to be ashamed of and we all have the responsibility to be here for one another.  Please like, share and comment.  I want to hear from you!  

If you or someone you know are battling mental illness, please contact the Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255.  It just may someone's life.

On this podcast I am interviewing Ms. De'Andrea Nichole Reese as she talks about launching her new website and the services she will be offering.  During this coronavirus quarantine, we were able to record this podcast via the telephone and had so much fun doing so but trust and believe, we did get down to business.  We talk a little bit about her blog, we discuss her mentorship program, her goal strategist services and so much more.  Pop in your earbuds, your bluetooth or however you choose to listen and see what De'Andrea has to offer.  You can follow her at the website and social media platforms below.  Happy listening!

I wanted to record a random podcast talking about the effects of this coronavirus.  The highs and the lows, the good and the bad.  For every bad thing can arise something good.  It has been incredibly devastating the lives that have been affected and lost due to this virus but through all of this, the community has been banding together to show one another love, support and encouragement.

I just want to say thank you to all of the men and women out there putting their lives on the line to fight for a vaccine and provide healthcare to all of those patients that have been impacted with coronavirus.  Without you, none of this would be possible.

*S/N just as I finished recording this podcast, my sister Tasha brought my nieces over so we could see one another.  They stayed in the car and we stood in the driveway but we were able to see them face to face.  Made my day!
