Energy, Energy, Energy! This episode is all about, The Energies We Bring to the various environments we step into on a daily basis.  Especially, as we are approaching the holidays, with family, friends, and more coming into your space to celebrate, fellowship, and break bread…..some may bring a very different energy that may not be positive or full of joy!

We have to continually be mindful of the energy we bring around others. The energy you give determines your interaction with the people in that environment, but more importantly, it speaks volumes about who you are. In this episode, Tiffanie brings up a great point, that if you are around bad energy enough, you will gradually become a product of your environment and you too will become a negative energy-carrying individual.

So, the bottom line is, watch your energy and don't be afraid to remove yourself from people or environments that hold bad energy. Be okay with saying no and not inviting negative energy into your space. Protect your peace! Protect your space!

In this classic episode of the Truth & Coffee Time Podcast, we look deeper into love. We understand that it is simply a brain chemical reaction per science - but is it really?!  There are several stages to love and we discuss 5 of them here in this episode. We think these 5 include many mini stages but these 5 are the key components. But remember how you interpret each stage of love may be completely different from how another person may view it.  Various stages of love, such as falling head over heels, passionate and fierce love, or a long term relationship, reflect the many emotional connections we have with our partners.  Trust us, there is no playbook - but let’s get into what we have experienced through our 35+ years journey.

In this Classic episode, we tackle questions & comments from other interracial couples.  Having a relationship is already tricky within itself, but when you step into the interracial arena, it gets a bit more involved.  Although we live in a society that's a bit more progressive, there are still areas as well as people who continue to disapprove of interracial love.  They often offer comments, microaggressions, and questions that show their disapproval.

We review and break down other couples' questions and answers and we share our own experiences.  Now keep in mind we have been married for over 35+ years, so our experiences may be tainted with a bit more hurt and rejection.  But remember we made it through and we are still going strong.  Let’s get into it!

Tune in and learn how to close the gaps in your relationship and build stronger connections. Don’t miss this heartfelt and relatable conversation!

We brought back the  discussion of the Interracial Pre-game.  We shared some courageous conversations that interracial couples should talk about before getting into a serious relationship.  So now you are in there, have jumped into a committed relationship, and/or you're married! Well, okay you jumped! Pre-gaming is over and now it is Game Time!

Hold up, Half-Time is here! Relationships are absolutely no joke and both parties must put in the work! Take the everyday stress of relationships, the woes, and the constant work and add the interracial/intercultural element to it, and the work doubles, sometimes triples, and may even stall. But it’s half-time - so let's get into it!
