365 little days. But it can change your whole life. This episode is so special to me already and I hope the people that were part of it feel the same. We laughed, we cried, we laughed some more. It's easy to focus on the bad in the world but we must remember that we got love and because of that, we are rich! Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone there and some that couldn't be in person, all are deeply appreciated, all my love.

Power to the people. Power to all people. Power to my people. There can never be peace until the past & present injustices are rectified, or at least attempted. The earth will always be unsettled until that day comes. Godspeed, Africa!

What does that omnipresent term "financial freedom" really mean? It may mean something different to everyone but you must figure out what it is to you. Without the fundamentals in finances, you very well could end up right where you started, or worse. They say most people when they make a buck, they spend 10, we've all been that person, but which of us will change?
