  • Stop Waiting For Someone Else To Take The Lead
    Feb 8 2023

    Today's guest on the show is Eric Blackwell. During this episode we are going to talk about the importance of having a plan for your life. If you don't have a plan then you can't expect to realize sustainable progress. It’s easy to get paralyzed in thought when you realize how much you need to learn. Some people even decide to wait for someone else to find the answers so that they can just follow that person’s lead. That’s a gamble that none of us should be willing to take. You have to arm yourself with information so that you can take the lead in your own life. Tune in!

  • Water Yourself Daily
    Feb 1 2023

    Today I have Demonté Frink, the owner of "Oluchi Essentials" as a guest on the show. Growth is challenging to attain without first addressing the issues that are bothering you on the inside. During this conversation, we spoke about how utilizing therapy not only enabled him to be a better father, son, and friend but therapy also enabled him to start making more responsible financial decisions. The process of growth is continuous and the more you embrace it, the more impactful it will be for your life and those within your sphere of influence. The journey isn't easy, but the only way to ensure that you will continue to see positive results will be to treat yourself like a seed and "Water Yourself Daily". Tune in!
