In this episode, we discuss the struggles men have with being aware and accepting that most times their first time was rape. It wasn't by someone from the clergy or someone their own age but a babysitter, family friend, family member, or teacher. Society teaches men that it's a badge of honor to sleep with an older woman so it doesn't get seen as rape. It wasn't seen for a long time. The pressure of not having a "gay" son became the stomping grounds for having a raped son who becomes hypersexual instead of identifying it as rape, getting counseling from it, and moving on. Men should have that trusted space too to say that they were victimized and they want better. Seek counseling before it destroys your relationships and friendships.

This episode is for every adult who has been diagnosed with ADD, ADHD, SPD, AUTISM in their adult years. Some of us have known we were different decades ago but were never seen. Some of us were so high functioning that no one noticed. When we finally take the time to be around people who actually see the difference and can identify it it becomes a blessing. We start to actually learn how to be free and manage our differences in a healthy way. It feels good to know that someone sees you.

This episode delves into the south. We often get teased a lot about our southern dialect. It may sound silly to others but to us it's something to be proud of. I wanted to uplift the culture of the south. I wanted to tell a story about southern living. Be proud of the region you came from. There's a lot of politics and harsh history but there's also culture and love. Don't you ever forget it.

In this episode we peel back the layers of why people cannot separate church from trauma. Often times people bring their trauma to church or their trauma started in a church but they cannot separate the culprit from God. It is like a man/woman of the cloth and God is one in the same. They're not! Some trauma is simply from being convicted by God and other are way worse and those traumas came from a wolf in sheep's clothing. We forget "free will" comes to play even when people are going against God. Let's get into it, shall we?!

In this episode we're discussing how the 1970s Blaxploitation era redefined the art of dating. It passed down the notion that dating is mere transactional and that if a man spends money on a date then he is owed a woman's body. Well, that doesn't get us to a lasting relationship with that mindset now does it? We have to return that notion back to the 70s on BOTH ENDS. Dating is just that "to go on a date". It is neither transactional or sexual. How the hell are you both supposed to know each other if one wants sex, throwing money, and talking all about self and the other is begging for an upkeep and talking all about self? We get absolutely nowhere. We are redlining past the days between true chivalry and self exploitation. Reel it back and tune in.

How many many women wished they could have dated young under parental supervision? In this episode, we discuss raising teenagers especially young women. We tend to have a long leash on our young men but yet a shock collar on our young women. We expect them to choose wisely when they become adults but their emotional state haven't even been developed yet. All the things they could have went through as a teenager and would have been taught through they are now learning in their twenties either in college or out in the world with no life jacket and no supervision. How are young women supposed to navigate relationships without crashing out when we don't have the tools to do so? Well tune in and share.

In this episode we get into emotional regulation. What sets a person off? How did you learn to self deescalate a situation? Everyone isn't raised with the tools to do so early hence why we have prisons and diversion centers filled. We all know that even the best of us weren't taught how to regulate our emotions but by adulthood it shouldn't just be "who we are" but something we're willing to change. Silent treatment, "going postal", and even excessive venting are all negative traits learned by someone who didn't have the tools themselves. A therapist is your lifeline. Use it! Graduate! Heal! We all need to be and raise emotionally stable citizens no matter what country you were born in.
