Grown Gray & Groovy

Tis the Thanksgiving Season. We all trying to gobble and wobble. This episode is a short "Happy Thanksgiving" and a What's going on with me quick catch up.  

When it comes to relationships, while we may all seek that ultimate great love, we may find that looks looks different than what the "ideal" relationship might look like for the next person...Well, I guess variety is the spice of life. And sometimes, it's definitely not your norm. My guest Soni comes to the Grown Gray and Groovy place to give her perspective on her unique style of relationships. Come on in and have a listen. I'll see you on the inside.

Y’all remember how it felt when you first became an adult. Yeah, we knew everything right? Wrong! We knew little of nothing. Well, this newest generation of young ones transitioning to adulthood have a lot to say too, and of course they know everything. NOT! Well, I have one of them newbie adults sitting here in the Grown Gray and Groovy place, and we are about to hear it straight out of the mouth of babes. Come on in, I’ll see y’all on the other side.

To tell it or not to tell it. That is the question. What happens when you tell something in secret, and the person you tell it to turns around and tells it too? Nothing good, believe me. After all is said (pun intended) and done. Do you just forgive that person and move on like it never happened, or is it okay to walk away and shake the dust so to speak, on that friendship? Walter Winchell said a mouthful with his quote, "I usually get my stuff from people who promised somebody else that they would keep a secret" We can all identify and relate to his words. My mom used to say, if a dog brings a bone, he will also carry a bone. If only we can follow that wise advice. Let's talk about this mouthy (pun intended) subject. And y'all don't take it personal. I'll see y'all over in the Grown Gray and Groovy place. 

Well stuff got a little grown in the Grown Gray Groovy place this episode. But listen, "Grown" is in the name right.?  I'm not going to apologize for always stepping and repping for the old G's... The Grown Gray and Groovy, particularly my sexy senior Old G,'s as in old gals. I'm all about my sexy senior sisters and I had to spank on a young buck who tried to tell me we are just a bunch of "Stella's" trying to get our groove back. Get the popcorn, its going to get real grown up in here. I'll see y'all over in the Grown Gray and Groovy room. 

Listen! Some of us Grown Gray & Groovy folks are ready for that grown folk relationship. But Guess what? Covid is running amuck and mucking up how we meet or meet up with others these days. How's anyone to find someone with all of this social distancing, and or shutdowns of businesses, or even make it known they are looking to be found? So we are talking about digital love. My guest today, knows a thing or two about online dating because she met her husband, my son on an online dating platform. So yeah, in this episode, we are going to talk about digital love. Is this the new norm? Is Covid changing the game up, making online dating a real viable option for meeting prospective partners, vs the cheesy stigma that was once associated with it?.. There will eventually be a part two because there's so much to talk about with this one. See y'all inside of the Grown Gray & Groovy room. 

When I get to that place of being in my next “Grown Folk” relationship, I am so serious about showing up as my best self, fully prepared to give the best me to the partner who also is fully prepared to show up as his best self. And together we will commit to not only being the best, but also doing the best, to have the best, and live the best relationship.

But my journey to getting to that “Grown Folk” relationship, well, let me tell you, there’s work to be done.  It’s a process. And, I'm going to talk a bit about what that's currently looking like for me. So, come on over and join me in the Grown Folks room...See y'all there!

Let me paint you a reminder image, if you will of what it looks like and feels like when "Grown Folk" decide to that thing. This episode has some thought provoking sizzle, and I can't wait to start that grown conversation. Come on, let's meet on the other side of the story....

Hello! I am Denise J. Delaney and I just did this! I'm actually doing this!!.AH! it's here!!! I am so excited. This is huge for me, and will absolutely be the most frightening thing I have yet to do, in my entire grown years. Other than the time I zip lined in Florida while on a family vacation in 2018, but I feel like me launching this podcast is the scariest for sure. I can tell you as would people who know me, this would be a stepping out of the box for me. I am doing it afraid Dr. Joyce Meyer. Because I can do this, and the hardest part will always be to just begin it. I'm super excited to challenge myself to stay courageous, encourage my self to have fun, and hold myself accountable to keep it together, and hopefully I can encourage and inspire other listeners to show up, get in the game and to be their best grown, gray and groovy courageous selves. Let's figure out this "Grown Folks Love" thing, together.  In the introduction, I'll talk a little bit more about this podcast. If you have found me, and you are watching. I appreciate you, and I'll see you on the journey.
