In this deeply personal episode, I take you back to the summer of 2010—a season that would mark the beginning of my healing journey after heartbreak. At the center of this story is a young lady I call Chocolate Kisses, whose presence during that time left a lasting imprint on my life.

This wasn’t just another summer—it was a defining moment where pain met possibility, and brokenness collided with the hope of something new. Through laughter, late-night conversations, and the unexpected bond I formed with her, I began to rediscover myself and what it meant to move forward after loss.

Part 1 of this series unpacks the raw emotions, the lessons I didn’t know I was learning, and the subtle yet powerful ways that people can show up in your life when you least expect it. This is not just a story about romance, but about resilience, recovery, and the courage to keep living when your heart feels like it has stopped.

If you’ve ever faced heartbreak and wondered how healing could possibly come, this episode will resonate with you. Join me as we revisit the summer of 2010—where a broken heart slowly began to beat again.
