The Friendship and Flow Show

When Business Turns Personal: Can Rejection Cost You a Check?

What happens when attraction gets mixed up with business? Can turning someone down cost you an opportunity? And how do you know when someone is genuinely interested in working with you or just interested in YOU?

This week on The Friendship & Flow Show, Jason Miller, Erica Alysha, Rahmad Powell, and Brittany J. are back on WLIT 106, joined by special guest Anthony Virgil of The Mentality Show, an actor and content creator who has been featured on FOX 5.

We're getting into the conversations that make you laugh, think, and question a few things.

Here's what's in the mix:

When Business Gets Personal: Can attraction, rejection, or mixed intentions cost you a professional opportunity?

Music & Mindset: Did old-school R&B teach us to fight for relationships while today's music encourages us to move on? And how does the lifestyle promoted in music affect our happiness?

Money Moves: What could happen if an entire graduating class pooled its resources to build wealth instead of just celebrating success?

Adulting Ain't Easy: Why do we keep saying, "This is the last time," knowing we're probably going to do it again?

The Ick: Those little behaviors that instantly change how we see someone.

From relationships and personal boundaries to financial empowerment and the influence of music, this episode has a little bit of everything.

Now we want to hear from you: Have you ever lost an opportunity because someone wanted more than a professional relationship? Was it business, or were they feeling you?

Thursday, October 15, 2026. The Friendship & Flow Show is back with host Jason Miller and the crew: Erica Alysha (aka Easy E), Rahmad Powell and Brittany J. Special guest Khadijah Corrie, the PG Princess and Parlay Queen, joins the table.

It's Breast Cancer Awareness Month, so this episode is for the ladies. Show some love and rock your pink.

In this episode:

Tap in, share it with your bestie, and come back next week for more friendship and flow.

This week on The Friendship & Flow Show, Just Jason and the crew start with Jason's trip to Europe. The weather has changed, the group is catching up, and Brittany J. opens the Bestie Breakdown on how to recognize a damaged man. She tells the story of what happened when strangers online picked a fight with her 20-year reunion video. Jason's trip shapes this week's Money Move: how expensive is your lifestyle, and what could you cut back on? It also raises a bigger question: is black the same everywhere?

The conversation then moves through gratitude, why subtle hints never work on someone who won't take no, what you'd do with the power to read minds, the icks of the week, and whether we're still spanking our kids. This week's Hard Truth is that sometimes you have to leave home to realize your value, and the group follows it with a debate on whether we're letting kids be kids or raising kids who can't function. They ask what it means when a grown man asks his dad for money and gets a lecture, then run through a round of Come Get Your Friend. The episode closes on a mindset moment: if life hasn't made space for your gifts, you have to make it yourself.

This week on The Friendship & Flow Show, host Just Jason (Jason Miller) is joined by Erica, Alysha, Rahmad Powell and Brittany J. Special guest Media Moni sits in for the whole episode. The crew starts with how the weather change is treating everybody and moves on to how you make better choices as a parent. From there they get into a hard question: does a friend's budget have to be yours?

The conversation covers friends who plan trips without asking about your budget, and how much pressure millennials feel at work. They ask whether making best friends at work is a green flag or a red one. They also debate whether you would have a baby with your best friend, and what to do when someone comes back into your life expecting the person you used to be. The hosts also get into the new A Different World on Netflix, a McDonald's onion story, and the week's "Come Get Your Friend" headlines. The show closes with a mindset moment about letting compliments sink in.

Inside Ava and Ava: Building a DMV Psychological Thriller | Friendship & Flow

The DMV is getting a new psychological thriller.

This week on The Friendship & Flow Show, we’re joined by Isaac Loyal, Danielle Bowman, and Janae Smith, the creators and producers behind the upcoming film Ava and Ava.

The team takes us inside the vision behind the film, the process of bringing an independent production to life in the Washington, DC, Maryland, and Virginia area, and what it takes to move a project from an idea into casting, auditions, production, and ultimately the screen. With Ava and Ava planned for release in 2027, we talk about the story behind the project, their filmmaking journey, and their plans for building something special right here in the DMV.

And, of course, it wouldn’t be Friendship & Flow without the conversations going completely off the rails along the way.

We get into relationships, adult friendships, money, faith, self-reflection, boundaries, and personal growth, including:

🎬 Inside Ava and Ava — Meet the creators and hear how this DMV psychological thriller is coming together.

❤️ Choosing Familiar Over What You Really Want — Why do we keep choosing what's comfortable, even when we know it isn't what we truly want?

💰 Your Network Is Your Net Worth — Why getting outside, meeting people, and building genuine relationships can create opportunities money can't buy.

🙏🏾 Adulting Ain't Easy — How do you deal with overly critical Christians without allowing someone else's judgment to affect your faith?

📱 What's the Tea with E — How long is too long to stay in the DMs before somebody finally makes a move?

👯 Friendships as Adults — Have friendships become too low-maintenance, or are some friends simply asking for too much?

🚩 Flag It or Respect It — Should your partner be expected to come to your doctor's appointments?

🧠 The Hard Truth — Sometimes we're so busy investigating everybody else's behavior that we forget to investigate ourselves. What happens when the person who needs the most examination is you?

😂 Group Chat — If your best friend's business isn't good, are you honest enough to tell them?

🔥 Come Get Your Friend — The crew reacts to the wildest stories, celebrity moments, and internet conversations of the week.

🏈 Mahd-Set Moment — Stop measuring your life only by touchdowns. Sometimes progress looks like getting the first down, moving the chains, and putting yourself in position for the next play.

It's filmmaking, friendship, relationships, growth, laughs, and the kind of conversations that could only happen on Friendship & Flow.

Special Guests: Isaac Loyal, Danielle Bowman & Janae Smith — creators and producers of Ava and Ava

Hosted by: Jason Miller, Erica Alysha, Brittany J. & Rahmad Powell

New conversations every week. Real friends. Real perspectives. Real flow.

Who actually comes first in your marriage your spouse, your kids, your parents, or yourself? The Friendship & Flow crew gets into it this week with a full Bestie Breakdown on honor, order, and the hierarchy nobody wants to talk about. Plus Brittany breaks down "no other woman comes before your wife, and no man comes before your husband" and things get spicy fast.

Then it's Money Moves: are you saving what's left or paying yourself first? The crew pulls a lesson straight from I Will Teach You to Be Rich and breaks down how to put your money on autopilot before you spend it on Netflix and nights out.

Later, Adulting Ain't Easy and common sense isn't as common as you think. The Hard Truth this week hits close to home: everybody wants a village until the village has an opinion. What happens when the people who love you most are the ones telling you you're wrong?

The tea gets hotter with What's the Tea with E, featuring Flag It or Respect It including the wild scenario of dating someone who's straight but has been with people of the same sex, and the internet moment with Adrian Broner that had the whole group hollering. Come Get Your Friend goes two rounds of rapid fire, and the Mahd-Set Moment ties it all together: the people who really love you cannot be afraid to hurt your feelings.

A full hour of friendship, flow, real talk, and the laughs that happen in between.

Is there a cutoff point for financial support from an ex?

Single parents are often praised for being strong, independent, and able to “handle it all,” but that strength can come with a real cost. This episode gets into the pressure of raising children largely on your own, balancing work and parenting, financial stress, loneliness, burnout, and the guilt that can come with needing help.

In this episode of The Friendship & Flow Show, we’re joined by a special guest from the DMV — Brisje Graves, founder of the DMV Jump Club, a fast-growing fitness community built on movement, motivation, and connection.

Welcome to Friendship & Flow — the podcast where real conversations meet culture, relationships, and the truth people don’t always want to hear.
