• This  episode, "Start Where You Are", gives you a little more insight about my journey and some of the steps that I think are important if you are even going to begin to think about omoving forward after facing adversity  in your life, regardless of what it might be.  I discuss  my journey and strategy by honoring my father and his love for words, using the word START as an acrostic:

Surrender
Transcend
Accept
Recalibrate/Recharge
Take The Steps

Being in the midst of the holiday season, this abbreviated episode highlights a few people and things in my life that I am grateful for.  Please share 10-15 minutes with me as I speak on it!

Follow up to our debut episode Fix Your Focus part 1. This week marks 1 year since celebrating  the life of my father, Mr. Charles Herman Hawkins.  Included in this episode is an affirmation he wrote in his book, Let Your Light Shine, in 1991 that speaks to the importance of focus.  #WeLoveYou   R.I.H.

In this first episode of the Perspective Is Key podcast, you'll hear about the new journey I was getting ready to embark on as a stroke survivor.  This is the first part of a 2 part show that is titled, Fix Your Focus,  based on a conversation I had with my wife that helped me find purpose in the midst of my pain.  I talk about the impact my stroke had on my family and myself, the emotional roller coaster I rode during that time, my faith, & shifting my mindset so that I could bring myself to a place where I could have gratitude for still being alive and for being a humble recipient of the grace and mercy that God had for me throughout this time in my life.  Thanks for stopping by to listen and be sure to be on the lookout for Part 2 next week....and don't forget: Growth Is Optional &  Perspective Is Key!
