Thank you so much for listening!

What do you do when your "home sweet home" is not so sweet? Especially as a teenager or young adult? I'm still trying to figure that out and so are many young people in the U.S. The tumultuous world we live in often becomes the respite from our home life, not the other way around as it ought to be. 

In this episode, I relate about the challenges of growing up and still living in an unstable home, that isn't so peaceful, and how it has shaped adulthood so far.

I don't attend church currently but it was a very big part of my childhood.

I feel as if I have recently found a pot at the end of the rainbow: I've stumbled upon a job opportunity with great coworkers and a safe environment, physically and emotionally.

We can't have productive conversations until we recognize this one thing: you don't know everything and neither does anyone else. And that's ok.

This is how I plan to handle all discourse on this show.

Thank you so much for listening!

Dear parents, you have so much power to wield! Let's learn to wield it diligently and with a firm love, before the kids wind up in a chaotic hellscape that is (certain parts of) Chicago and other big cities in our country.

**Quick editing note: Yes, we are jumping from "Episode 3" to Episode 6" because it makes more sense on my end. Technically, I have posted 6 episodes, including the teaser episodes. Apologies for the confusion but now it's less confusing for me, haha.

These are the events that shaped me into a woman who needs to speak out about parenthood, broken families and the healing of the generations. Part 1.

Stay tuned because I need to get some things off my chest.

The rate of fatherless homes in Black families is getting out of hand.

Why are there so many narcissists now?

Who knew I'd be recording my first episode as I'm testing out my new microphone and recording software? I sure didn't. But here it is!

I have so many ideas for this venture, all full of potential. My main objective is to provide a voice of comfort and support to the young women of my generation who feel lost in a decaying society. There is abundant hope to be gotten, despite your past experiences.

And I have a lot of healing to do myself. So I invite you to start your healing now, with me.
