3 P's:
Passion - Is what drives us.
Purpose - Keeps us going.
Profit - Sustains the passion and purpose
Without the profit you can't sustain your passion and purpose.
We found our passion, discovered our purpose and the profit is a by product.
We had a passion for showing an entirely different segment of the African-American relationship that the media did not show.
Passion don't pay the bills.
Money doesn't always fulfill you and drive you forward. Money doesn't bring everyone to rally around your mission.

July 13, 2015Better Mind, Better Life With Dion Metzger, MD
Last month, I had the pleasure of meeting Dion Metzger, MD at the Blogging While Brown Conference. Metzger is a board certified adult psychiatrist who is passionate about the advocacy of mental illness.We had an intriguing conversation and I was fortunate enough to carry that over in this podcast. We discussed a variety of topics from her path to becoming a physician, Charleston and the state mental health in the African-American community. Below are some highlights of what was discussed.
·      I love the gift to have the ability to treat symptoms of mental illness.
·      We put so much work into school and becoming what you want to be, go where you passion is. Go for your heart
·      I see technology as a good thing because it brings awareness and with awareness we bring more change to what’s going on. I see it as nothing but a positive. We have to know what’s going on in order to change it.
·      We have to remember there’s good in all people.
·      One person’s actions do not represent a whole race.
·      Depression can be just as paralyzing as physical illness as you don’t have the motivation to get out of bed, your sleep and appetite changes. It can affect you from head to toe.
·      The beautiful thing about depression is it can be treated.
·      Everybody can benefit from therapy because you are spending time with a non-bias person.
·      You telling your story is therapeutic.
·      Talking to a professional can make a difference.
·      Relationships are common reasons to see a therapist.
·      Success is what you are currently doing compared to what you are created to do.
·      When you get up everyday and you are happy doing what you are doing. Success is happiness.
