Toks Talks Podcast

In this episode, Toks talks about Celebration. As the year comes to a close, most of us will be reflecting on how this year has been and all the great things that have happened. Learning how to celebrate and be celebrated are very important life skills. The Words to Live by this week are 'How you feel and what you feel are not the same thing.' Our feelings sometimes bubble up out of our control, but what we can control is our ability to self reflect and determine the actual reasons motivating what we feel.

Have a great week!

In this episode, Toks talks about Willing & Worthy. She discusses how willingness and worthiness are a necessary duo when creating a successful relationship. The Words to Live by this week are 'Love and stupidity are twins, one is raised by reciprocity and the other by neglect.' In relationship, our actions have a way of shifting from love to stupidity when the relationship fails. Instead of acting because of what we think we will get back, try and act out of the abundance of yourself in a way that will still feel comfortable if it isn't reciprocated.
