Real Talk Radio

In this episode of Real Talk Radio, we get personal, honest, and a little controversial. My guest opens up about her past relationships and what growth has taught her about love and expectations. We also dive into the internet's reaction to DDG and Halle Bailey’s rumored custody battle, explore the contradictions in B. Simone’s evolving views on finances and 9–5 relationships, and reflect on the challenges of dating someone with a time-consuming career. This one’s for anyone who's ever tried to balance love, ambition, and reality.

In this vulnerable and soul-stirring episode, I sit down with poet and author Lacretia White, the voice behind the powerful poetry collection Naked. This raw and emotional body of work explores the depths of love, loss, heartbreak, healing, and rediscovery.

We dive into the inspiration behind her writing, her decision to finally share pieces she once kept hidden, and why she chose the title Naked to represent such deeply personal emotions. Lacretia opens up about the writing process, the pain that birthed these poems, and the freedom that came with releasing them into the world.

From double entendres and runaway letters to heartbreak that hits like a drug, we explore specific verses from the book—including fan favorites like “Little Lost Flower,” “I Will Wait,” and “Are You the One?” She also reflects on the evolution of her faith, how heartbreak reshaped her capacity to love, and the role of forgiveness in healing.

If you've ever loved deeply, hurt quietly, or healed slowly—this conversation is for you.

In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with a young woman who entered the education system with heart, hope, and a deep desire to make a difference—but walked away disillusioned and burned out.

We talk candidly about what initially drew her to teaching at such a young age, the harsh realities she faced inside and outside the classroom, and the emotional toll of trying to survive on a salary that couldn’t sustain her. From burnout and financial stress to the pressure of being a young woman of color expected to do more with less, her story highlights the human cost of an underpaid and undervalued profession.

She opens up about the guilt, the judgment, the heartbreak of leaving her students behind—and what it would actually take for her to ever consider going back.

This episode isn’t just about one teacher’s story—it’s about a system that continues to fail the very people it claims to depend on. If you care about the future of education, you need to hear this.

In this deeply personal episode, I share the unexpected journey of undergoing my first-ever surgery—a sudden appendectomy that landed me in the hospital for the first time in my life. Having never dealt with major health issues before, this experience opened my eyes to the reality of life on both sides of the hospital bed—what it's like being a patient, and what nurses deal with every day.

I reflect on the business side of healthcare, my conversation with a kind nurse named Ednor, and the sobering realization of how fragile life really is. Most of all, I open up about the burnout I didn’t know I was carrying—from overworking, chasing dreams nonstop, and never giving myself room to breathe.

This was more than just a medical emergency—it was a wake-up call. Tune in as I talk about slowing down, finding gratitude in stillness, and learning to take care of myself before anything else.

In this episode, I sit down with my brother Tyson Kruze to unpack some real truths about the lack of unity in the Black community. We explore what true solidarity looks like in today’s society, when and how individualism began to fracture our culture, and why sometimes the people you've known the longest can hold you back the most. This conversation isn't just thought-provoking — it's a wake-up call. It's time we stop surviving in silence and start building something real, together.

Kelly is worse, crown today’s true queen of R&B, and dive into the blurred lines between authenticity and image in the industry. It gets real, raw, and a little controversial — just how we like it.
