Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 102 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Stop Making Stupid People Famous.” This week, I want to open with a James Baldwin quote that essentially asks us to reflect on what America is doing to us. That reflection is just what this episode of the podcast is about.

If you mindlessly scroll social media as I sometimes (okay, okay OFTEN) do, you’ve probably seen some of the folks I talk about this week. I’d love to hear what you think about their performances.

If you’re really wanting to unpack the ideas around Black history, spirituality, or culture, please consider being a guest on the podcast. Send me an email at [email protected]. I’m a life coach helping folks reach holistic success over here while being your FAVORITE HBCU Prof!

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 101 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Tyrese, Really?” This week, I fought hard not to hit a full on rant. If you haven’t heard, Tyrese helped set the tone for Black History Month 2024 by publishing wishing he was born Latinx. (Now, don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with being Latinx, the problem is in not celebrating who you are.)

In this episode I share with you a few quotes by two of my favorite scholars: Drs. Carter G. Woodson and John Henrik Clarke.

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 100 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"How This Podcast Came to Be.” This week, I want to share with you my long and winding road to my 100th episode of the podcast. Long story short, it’s taken me years to do what really should have only taken me a portion of that.

I hope that in me sharing my story, you find some motivation to re-start your own journey to align with (your already existing) best self.

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 99 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Rhetoric, Reality, and the Need for Community.” This week, I start with a special message about my struggles with procrastination and how that almost shaped this episode.

Between Dr. Claudine Gay’s resignation, Dr. Antoinette “Bonnie” Candia-Bailey’s untimely death, and Florida’s permanent ban of DEI on college campuses, this year has already shown itself to be one for which we must be prepared.

Unfortunately, at the same time we need to have our best thinkers reasoning through strategies for collective Black freedom and wellness, we are offering seeing a general disregard for intellectualism. For Black folks in particular, this is a dangerous road and we must not travel it alone.

I’d love to hear what you think about these ideas. And, if you’re really wanting to unpack the ideas around politics, voting, or culture, please consider being a guest on the podcast.

CORRECTIONS: I really wish I’d spent more time on Black women and our emotional well-being. My time on it in this episode feels a bit rushed, but I’ll get to it next week. When speaking about Taraji P. Henson, I misspoke and said her comments were about “higher education.” I actually meant “Hollywood.” Finally, I am no expert on Elon Musk and the source of his money has been up for discussion, but you can read more about his family here.

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 98 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Colonialism, Scarcity, and Tools for Liberation.” The world is a dumpster fire right now. If you are a person that believes in humanity, social justice, and equity life has been pretty rough lately. In this episode, I want to share with you how this season has plagued my joy and left me in a valley. However, I also want to share that by their very definition, valleys always have a way out.

I’ll be honest. Things have been challenging for me. In fact, I’d left behind some of the tools I’ve used in the past to bring me back to center. But things are getting better and I want to share with you the tools I’m using to claw my way out of my own foolishness.

In this episode, I’ll remind you of the power of prayer, benefits of meditation, importance of maroonage (read more here), and more.

I’d love to hear what you think about these ideas. And, if you’re really wanting to unpack the ideas around abundance, activism, and liberation please consider being a guest on the podcast. Send me an email at [email protected].

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 97 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Alien Self, Anti-Self, and MisEducation.” We’re in a whole mess with these Florida Education moves aren’t we?

In this episode, we discuss the recent release of new middle and high school standards in the State of Florida. Without an understanding of how history for Black folks has always been tied to liberation or oppression in the US, we may miss how deep this really is.

Books mentioned in this episode:

The MisEducation of the Negro (Carter G. Woodson)

Black Anglo-Saxons (Nathan Hare)

Papers in African Psychology (Na'im Akbar)

I’d love to hear what you think about these ideas. And, if you’re really wanting to unpack the ideas around education, school boards, and liberation please consider being a guest on the podcast. Send me an email at [email protected]. I’m a life coach helping folks reach holistic success over here!

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 96 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Cornel is Running for What?!” Honey, I can’t believe that we have to talk about Brotha Cornel and a presidential bid all in the same breath. I’m disgusted; if you want to know why, tune into this episode and hear me out.

I’ll be honest. This is probably not my best podcast. Quite frankly, I’m too bothered for it to be. In this episode, I’ll share my thoughts about West’s campaign and compare it to some things I’ve been watching over the last few years. Suffice it to say, the GOP strategy of pulling Black male voters is becoming increasingly obvious.

I’d love to hear what you think about these ideas. And, if you’re really wanting to unpack the ideas around voting, staying on code, and liberation please consider being a guest on the podcast. Send me an email at [email protected]. I’m a life coach helping folks reach holistic success over here!

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 95 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Living is an Artform.” Last week, I found out that my ex of seven years transitioned. Needless to say, it had a huge impact on my productivity and on my emotions. In this episode, I continue my conversation about mental health and how I’m managing to navigate my feelings.

Now, don’t get me wrong, my feelings around his passing that have affected me the most, are those linked to the awareness of my own mortality. His death reminded me that we cannot afford to procrastinate on the things that bring us joy and the lead us to our greatest successes.

In this episode of the podcast, I also reflect on Angie Martinez’s recent interview with Janelle Monae. If you haven’t seen it yet, make sure you head on over to watch it. It was quite the muse for this week’s podcast.

I’d love to hear what you think about these ideas. And, if you’re really wanting to unpack the ideas around art, individual goals, and liberation please consider being a guest on the podcast. Send me an email at [email protected]. I’m a life coach helping folks reach holistic success over here!

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 94 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Setting May Goals.” On this episode, I introduce mental health as the theme for the podcast during the month of May. Weekly, I’ll share with you one challenge or idea for you to consider during the week. My goal for this is to encourage you to think more deeply about practices you can employ to improve your overall health with particular attention given to your mental health.

Listen, unless you’ve not been paying attention you already know about growing censorship in US public schools. In this episode of the podcast, I’ll share with you what I think we need to be doing in this moment. I’ll also talk about what it means for us to unify around the moment.

I’d love to hear what you think about these ideas. And, if you’re really wanting to unpack the ideas around education, culture, or mental health, please consider being a guest on the podcast. Send me an email at [email protected]. I’m a life coach helping folks reach holistic success over here!

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 93 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Let’s Stay on Code.” This week, I had a lot to get off of my chest regarding that coach’s behavior around our beloved HBCUs (sounds a lot like the last episode, huh?). Welp, as long as we put up with the cult of celebrity and don’t hold one another to code, I’ll keep making these.

Listen, I’m going to commit to a once a month upload series for the podcast. I’ll be talking a bit less about the specifics of pop culture, and more on helping pull our attention from the micro to the larger system we need to be watching. It’s all connected, babe, and this week’s episode is my attempt to make that clear.

I’d love to hear what you think about these ideas. And, if you’re really wanting to unpack the ideas around HBCUs, education, or culture, please consider being a guest on the podcast. Send me an email at [email protected]. I’m a life coach helping folks reach holistic success over here!
