  • Episode 32: I'm MY ancestors wildest dream?? PT.1

    You hear it all the time "We are our ancestors' wildest dreams" BUT in what ways?

    .
    .
    I thought about this for a while-that phrase has always stunned me! The conversation is often surrounding getting degrees, working a job, or getting a "bag" but you know me, what about your soul hun? Did they really dream of us doing MORE labor?
    .
    .
    Maybe it’s self-soothing to justified the rampant capitalism we innately surrender to….but let me re-focus!
    .
    .
    All I’ll say is knowing MY and OUR people, hearing the stories about how outspoken, direct, driven and unique they were, I think back to my direct ancestors and what their dreams would be for me based on who they were as individuals.
    .
    .
    I think their dreams for me were grander yet simpler than I realized...

  • Episode 31: You know that's a stupid decision

    Why Would EYE Switch Out A Dime For A Penny?!

    Yes, Memphis-born rapper Moneybagg Yo has is my muse for this episode. 
    When I heard that line, I didn't think about a relationship, I thought about my dreams (plans) and how I am only cheating myself by not making them as big as possible. Even more than that, I'm looking forward to the day that I am no longer talking about what I want to do, but reflecting it in my life.
    I will not be just a dreamer forever!

  • Episode 30: The Confidence To Be Loud Enough The First Time w/ Troyia Monay

    How many of us sold candy in middle school? Did someone's homework for a quick buck or found another creative way to be our own boss as a child? 

    Why does that drive stop? It might be because our confidence dwindles over time. But no worries, this episode will give you that spark again!
    Troyia Monay had an eye for fashion and a passion for entrepreneurship as a teenager when she sold her own designs to her classmates. 
    She always knew that her future was bright, as long as she hustled for it. This YouTuber, boutique owner, business coach, content creator, and all-around girl boss shares her journey to being a full-time entrepreneur and knowing her greatness THE FIRST TIME. 
    As you listen to this episode, remember, don't overthink it. Come in with the confidence to be yourself at the very beginning.

  • Season 2 Episode 15: Why Veganism Could Save Your Life

    Hear me out, or don't: This was no easy episode; I had to take my own advice and encourage myself to be #loudenoughthefirsttime. 

    As you listen, you'll find out why. 
    First, I am NOT the one to fight you to drop the pork chop! I don't fight, and I don't argue... that's not my ministry. However, I'm a nerd when it comes to documentaries, lectures, and interviews, and I love to share what I learn! Also, if you knew how many people ask me if I still eat eggs, and seafood or if I'm starving (obviously not-?¿?¿), then you'd know why I had to make this episode. 
    SO much is misunderstood about veganism. So I decided that instead of raising MY blood pressure (which is very unhealthy : ), I should do my part and provide resources to anyone who wants to know more about veganism (even my already vegan fam out there!)
    In this episode, I talk about some of the research and the benefits of a vegan/plant-based L i f e s t y l e. Now, I am not here for ANY foolishness (just a little if it's fun) so if you have Google-able questions, please, in #DrUmar's voice, look it up! 
    There are so many opportunities for us to live better and be better. As many people today are awakening and are open to learning about vegan + holistic lifestyles, it is my pleasure to share my experience with you! Enjoy.

  • Season 2 Episode 13: In The Thick Of It

    Peanut butter? Meg? 4c curls? How thick is the thick of it for you? Some call it the "trenches" or being "in the mud." VERY challenging places to work through but necessary. I know that the thick of it is for a REASON, we're supposed to walk away with something new. Everyone's thick of it is something different, but regardless, be proud of YOURSELF and live a life of gratitude! You're making it!

  • Season 2 Episode 11: The Side Effects Of Detoxing

    Let me tell you about my personal side effects of detoxing that no one talks about. 

    I went beast mode at the beginning of 2021 with vegan detoxes. BUT that left me ending the last one a week earlier. 
    I will say that detoxing is a powerful game-changer IF DONE CORRECTLY. However, not being prepared/not doing your research takes away from the experience. In this episode, I walk you through where I went wrong with doing vegan detoxes back to back. Also, please know that there are PLENTY of positives that I gain from detoxing as well! 
    I hope you enjoy this episode!

  • Season 2 Episode 10: Gratitude Saved My Life. Believe In Yourself So Much That It Scares You!

    Do you believe “it” will happen? Then act like it! I owe it to myself and all people and things that have helped me be who I am and where I am. I don’t have a choice but to believe in myself! Let this episode serve as a reminder to WHY you should believe in yourself so much that it scares you! When you count all the “little things” that have happened for YOU (not to you), you will be S H O C K E D. Everything has worked out so you can be where you are; evaluate that.
