Welcome to the Simply Straight Talk Podcast with your host Reggie Maddox!

Some of us have been there. You meet someone you think is a great match; start dating, and then suddenly you realize they are not fully convinced that you are the one for them. And sometimes it’s not from snooping or being devious; sometimes it just happens. But regardless, what do you do about it? These days, it seems like the rules and expectations of dating are so confusing and misleading, that it doesn’t really offer much hope for finding your next partner. However, it’s a huge problem if the two of you are on your way to becoming official and monogamous and your partner is still looking at other options.

In this episode, Reggie is discussing the challenges of dating in 2021 and tips for determining if your mate is on the fence about your relationship status long-term.

An affair is difficult enough to survive within itself. But if a couple must deal with a child resulting from an affair, it often leaves the couple on an emotional roller coaster. If they keep the child, they are forever burdened with a constant reminder of the worst experience of their life. But if they abandon the child, they are left with overwhelming guilt.

Today’s show will discuss the challenges and decisions that come with a child being introduced into a relationship from an affair. Hopefully, this discussion can help you get through a situation such as this as peaceful as possible.

Many of us live with our dreams buried deep inside of us and that is where they live and die. Other people talk about their dreams and goals, but they never take action to bring them to reality. For most people, the problem is they exist with a do it alone attitude or I want to be in full control of every move.

In this episode I wanted to share 5 types of people that you need in your life to help bring your dreams and goals to reality and actually live them instead of just reminiscing about them. For this reason, you need to create a circle of people around you who bring select talents that help you, as well them in achieving your goals. We are all social creatures, but we tend to socialize more with people that offer little to no interest or skills to aid in reaching our goals.

As you listen to this episode think about the 5 types of people mentioned and how this can be applied to the people in your life. What are your dreams? What goals or ideas have you put aside? Who are the people in your life that make a good team for supporting each other?

Many of the people that you come across in life have suffered from some form of abuse or another—whether emotional, physical, spiritual, financial or sexual abuse. The reality is that abuse doesn’t discriminate, and people from all walks of life, cultures, socioeconomic status, race, and so on, can suffer from abuse. Many people only associate violence or abusive behavior in relationships where the male is the abuser. Abuse can be initiated by females as well. Males how experience abuse from females often never disclose the abuse. Regardless of the gender it is wrong for any person male of female put any person through any form of abuse.

In this episode, we will discuss some of the reasons relations escalate into a violent ending!

Have you ever been the victim of a theft or robbery? After experiencing a traumatic event such as a robbery/theft, a person may experience nausea, dizziness, emotions such as sadness, anger, denial, fear, and shame, difficulty sleeping, changes in sleeping patterns and/or extreme sadness.  A victim may experience one or more of these symptoms.

Now I have another question, what if you are the victim and perpetrator of a crime against yourself? Think about the emotional and mental stress a person may put themselves through in life. It’s one thing to know that someone else has taken something from you, but reality hits harder when you must face your own truth, regarding you harming yourself.

In this episode, Reggie is discussing some of the most common ways we rob ourselves of a better career, relationship, confidence, professional/personal growth, and the simple pleasures of enjoying life. Most of us only focus on the physical things we see in others that impact our lives, but rarely do we reflect on our own inner thoughts or personal behaviors.
