Living the American Dream is something we've all heard and maybe even want for ourselves, but how do we get there?

Growing up we have the preconceived idea of how our lives are supposed to be. First we attend school then college, we establish a career and start a family. This is the equation for success. What if we challenged all of that, what if the societal norms are just that... goal posts pushed by the world we live in rather than what our hearts actually desire. Today we dive in and talk about the social constructs that we're taught from a young age and how it can affect us, from the "perfect" picture of success to body image expectations.

Join us as we break through the mold and rattle the cage for generations to come.

"Do it for the 'gram" is a phrase I'm sure we're all familiar with. As light hearted as all that may seem it does come with some dark implications. 

Today we talk about self-love and all of the things that influence how we view ourselves, including the sometimes monster that is Social Media. Although the path to self-love and discovery goes far beyond our physical appearance, most of us have a hard time getting past that. A journey that truly starts in our minds and penetrates our spirits is cut short by what we see in the mirror. Joining me this week is Lizzy D, listen as we discuss the comparison trap that lurks behind every "like."

“It’s about the journey not the destination.”

This goes hand in hand with our topic of discussion today. Often times we set goals for ourselves but become discouraged by the road blocks we face to get there. Disappointment is a part of our daily lives but how we deal with it is what makes or breaks us.

In this solo, I will be discussing how we can be the cause of our own disappointments. Rather than beating ourselves up when “life“ happens, we have to learn how to let it refine us along the way.

Hate is a strong word, at least that’s what we’ve always been told. But what does it actually mean and how has it come to fit in our society today? This week I’ll be speaking on the effects our words can have on each other. Whether it’s in regards to who we are or what we do. Or an even more relevant subject: when it comes to our race.

Today, we're living in a world that has changed drastically within months due to CoVid-19. For many, this time has been very triggering for those who struggle with mental health. We're going to be sitting down with Judith Howell and discuss mental health awareness, specifically depression and anxiety and how it affects our community living in today's world. This topic is sensitive for a lot of people, as many have struggled with this at some point in their lives. Depression can come in many forms and for some it is debilitating. We dive into the weeds and address how it can be a disability if not treated correctly, and why it should be taken more seriously. Grab your tea and join the conversation.

Success. Highly sought after but rarely achieved.

This week we’re sitting down with Jereke Armstrong of Fit Evolution. Jereke tells us his story of what it was like to say his final goodbye to the typical 9-5 and open the doors of his very own company. While success isn’t always guaranteed, Jereke shares how a little faith can go a long way. Welcome to Tea with T!
