The Old You Vs The New You Podcast

In this episode, I talk about why it is that sometimes we have to sit in darkness, silence, and rock-bottom in order for us to learn from our failures, and mistakes from my past. We also need to do this, because we need to once we do learn from these things take the time to heal from the trauma, pain, suffering, illnesses, diseases, and other health issues that we suffer from due to these situations, actions, behavior, and choices that we made and deal with every day. A lot of people when they go through things they never want to sit still, and will learn, grow, and evolve from the situation that they've been through in the past. They will continue to do the same things over and over and over again. And still continuously, making the same mistakes, and associated with the same type of people. So sometimes it is good to sit into that darkness, failures, rock, bottom, dark hole, and negativity that has happened to you in order to learn and heal from it

In this episode, I am speaking with  Melissa Barnes about ihe Invisible Child Verses the Golden Child, and More. We talk about the balance between being a mom, and focusing on themselves.

So, I decided to post the conversation and let you guys hear it despite the fact that you can't see her. The balance between being a working mom and raising a child. We will also be talking about the invisible child versus the golden child as far as the way parents treat them? Why does each one represents when it comes to the parents as far as how they are treated? What is the reason as why they are treated and loved? We also talked about why the US doesn't women time to bond with their children except six weeks. How do we prepared for bringing children into the world, raising, teaching, and making time for them? The importance of the blended families as far as raising kids despite not being together. The impact of parents breaking up when it comes to children and their feelings.

I decided to only post this podcast episode on only one podcast, but I decided to post on this podcast due to because I wanted this podcast to hear it. In this episode, I had a conversation with KenWortley about his book the Gospel of Secrets. Ken is the bestselling author of The Gospel of Secrets: A Memoir of Truth, Liberation, and Love, and a former pastor with two decades spent guiding communities in the U.S. Through his memoir and advocacy, Ken has inspired countless people to embrace self-worth and inner peace as both LGBTQ+ and people of faith. His own transformation—from hiding his true identity to living openly with authenticity and spiritual integrity—is a story of real liberation, breaking cycles of shame, and learning to trust yourself even when tradition says otherwise. we talked about the importance of once you heal and recover and you accept yourself as far as the true and real version of yourself you're never gonna go back to the illusion version of yourself. we talked about how so many people are living a lie, and covering up the real version of themselves. And how that is never a good thing to do. This conversation was an absolute phenomenal conversation. I'm glad that I did the conversation with him because there are millions of people that are hiding the true version of themselves because their parents will never accept the fact that they are gay. And the freedom when people finally admits to not own themselves, but to other people the real version of themselves. We also talk about how people in the gay community are treated when it comes to the church. And how he went from a pastor, to a husband, father, to his discovery of realizing that he was a gay man. This conversation is something that I hope helps millions of people that are struggling with the real version of who they are when it comes to being a gay or lesbian individual. And it's time for us to really have these true conversations about this topic. Especially when it comes to spirituality, and how people use it as a weapon against these types of people. And I think the one thing about being the real version of yourself that is the very beginning of your recovery and healing is once you learn to accept and appreciate the real version of yourself regardless of who doesn't.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-old-you-vs-the-new-you-podcast--5273633/support.

In this episode, I’m going to be discussing the Oprah Winfrey conversation that she did on her podcast about no parent contact, and no child contact. This is something that has been happening quite often when it comes to kids that don’t want anything to do with their parents, parents that don’t wanna have anything to do with their children. And as someone that is a healing, recovery, and addiction coach, this is a conversation that is something that I specialize with when it comes to helping people with their family trauma issues. Helping people through what they went through in their childhood in order to move forward as far as healing and recovery. A lot of people have been debating about this conversation on TikTok and multiple other streaming platforms. But for the most part, a lot of people were not thrilled about the conversation. So I decided to do a panel where we discussed this particular conversation as far as people who don’t have contact with their family, and parents that don’t have contact with their children. It’s about hearing people stories versus being a right or wrong situation. And how do we go about healing from our family trauma and experiences on both ends? #nochildcontactBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-old-you-vs-the-new-you-podcast--5273633/support.

The spiritual warfare that we go through when comes to the battle between being who we are, and who we want to be, and who we truly are.The actual podcast conversation will be done on December 19.

This episode on my podcast is a podcast that I did on TikTok about letting go of the old version of you in order to become the new and better version of you. Letting go of all of the old feelings that you have towards the people who have wronged you. Letting go of what people have said about you negatively that has an impact it and affected your self-esteem, self-worth, self value, self-respect, self-confidence, and you believe it in yourself despite what other people think about you. Letting go of the could have, should have, and would have things that you could’ve, should have, and would have done, but you didn’t. Letting go of the version of you that’s holding you back from your greatness due to you being caged, chained, and in bondage mentally when it comes to post traumatic slayed disorder. The reason that this is important is because if you don’t, you’re never gonna move forward and become the new version of yourself that you were meant to be. Doing all of the things that you should be doing that you won’t do because you can’t let go of the old version of you. It was a very good conversation, and I hope you guys enjoy it.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-old-you-vs-the-new-you-podcast--5273633/support.

In this episode, I’m gonna be discussing the importance of seeing things and people for what and who they truly are instead of what we want want them to be, and the situation to become. The one thing about healing and recovery that you’re gonna have to learn is you’re gonna have to learn to see things exactly for what they are when it comes to other people and situations. People are not going to do, say, treat, act, or think or behave like you, or how you want them too. If we don’t start seeing the outside world when we walk out the door for who and what it truly is, is the majority of the reason why we go through the things we go through with these other people and situations due to not seeing them for what and who they truly are. So in this episode, I’m gonna be talking about how even though you see, and want people to be a certain way, doesn’t mean that they’re going to be the way you want them to be. Just because you want something or somebody doesn’t mean that that person wants you, or you’re meant to have what it is that you want. Just because somebody chooses you, doesn’t mean that they like or accept you. So this podcast episode is going to be interesting.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-old-you-vs-the-new-you-podcast--5273633/support.

In this episode, I’m gonna be discussing why it is that we overcome darkness, just to go back to darkness again. Why do we overcome circumstances that are negative, just to end up back in the same circumstances? Why do we get away from the environment that we’re negative, just to go back to those same environments? Why is it that we let go of all of these people physically that are negative, but we can’t let go of these negative people emotionally? When it comes to darkness, there’s always a light at the end of the tunnel, but the question is why can’t we maintain being in the light versus going back to the dark? We’re also gonna talk about darkness from the Alice in Wonderland story when it comes to following the rabbits down the rabbit hole into a darkness and unknown that we have no idea what’s there. and even though Alice gets out of Wonderland, somehow we always end up following another rabbit right back down there. And then by the time we reached the queen of hearts, we’re facing the consequences, repercussions, and karma or actions, behavior, choices, and decisions that we made while we were in Wonderland based upon the characters that we encounter in Wonderland.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-old-you-vs-the-new-you-podcast--5273633/support.

In this episode, we’re gonna be discussing why being alone has to automatically mean being lonely. Just because someone is alone does not mean that they are lonely, or miserable. Some people choose to be alone because they’ve been through so much trauma, and negative situations that has impacted and affected their lives in a negative manner to the point that they just don’t want to deal with anybody. Some people are alone because they are working on themselves, and building something without a bunch of naysayers, interfering or saying something negative about what they do. Some people are even just moving in silence, and not letting anybody know what they’re doing. Some people just want to enjoy their blessings, without other people bleaching, and sucking the life out of them for everything that they have. So today we’re gonna go into some of the reasons why people are truly and really alone. And it’s not for the reasons that you think.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-old-you-vs-the-new-you-podcast--5273633/support.

On this episode, I’m gonna be discussing how to let go of everybody else’s version of you. We’re gonna be talking about how to go about not being defined by the version of yourself that everybody else knows you as. The one thing about healing and recovery is that it’s all about letting go of the past versions of yourself as far as how you see yourself, and how other people see you. I’m not gonna lie and say that that’s not going to be easy to do, but at the same time it’s necessary in order to become the new version of yourself that you want to become. A lot of people only know you from the version of yourself that they remember you from, but not the version of yourself that you are now. And a lot of people will try to use that past version of you in order to use it as a weapon against you. So this episode is all about helping people to let go of their old version of themselves, and become the new version of themselves that they always want to be and become.� New to streaming or looking to level up?

These people are willing to lower themselves, proving themselves, changing who they are just to get accepted andapproval of these people. The sad part about it is these people ain’t gonna do nothing but just take advantage of it. Because they don’t really want these people in the first place. They just like to see these people jump through hoops just to be with them. A lot of people because of what they were willing to do to be loved, appreciated, valued, wanted, needed, accepted, validated, approved of, and being liked, they end up losing themselves.

In this episode, I'm gonna be discussing how rejection is the hardest thing to recover from. A lot of people don't know how to deal with or except rejection. A lot of people think that when they're being rejected that something is wrong with them, or they're not good enough. When in all actuality, it just means that that thing or those people are not meant for you to deal with. What's meant for some people is not always meant for everybody. So it's OK if you're not chosen by a specific person, or friends, family, or a job. Whatever is meant for you, the higher power will provide that for you. So when is episode I talk about how overcoming, and excepting rejection is one of the ways of recovering from and moving forward with your life.

You have to learn from the old versions of yourself in order to be a better you want to come see your present and your future self. So this episode is all about the importance of starting over when it comes to your life. I'm not talking about just saying that you're starting over. I mean every day you are starting over.

It is too many people that are following the standards of society and it does not involve you at all. You trying to dress like everybody else, be like everybody else, talk like everybody else, at like everybody else, think, like everybody else, dress, like everybody else, and do what everybody else does, because for some reason you think somethings wrong with you because you don’t fit into society stamps is beyond crazy to me. There is nothing wrong with going against society standards. Because a lot of y’all just are never going to fit those standards. And the ones who do, it is going to end up tragic for you. So in this episode, I’m gonna talk about why people who don’t belong, different, unique, and are not considered what is a society standards, just don’t even try or waste your time trying to be a part of society standards?

In this episode, I’m going to be discussing how to conquer the enemy within yourself. Because if you don’t conquer the enemy within yourself, you’re not going to be a better or new version of yourself. You will continue to make the same mistakes over, and over again. You continue to do the same type of people that me and you absolutely no goo. You continue to try to say people that just cannot be saved. And continue to be using taken advantage of by people that would end up because they are consequences, repercussions, and karma based upon their actions, choices, decision, come behavior and completely destroy your life. You will continue to be manipulated, and bamboozled by people that are leading you astray to chaos, trauma, and destruction, so by learning how to deal with the enemy within, you will not continue to make the same mistakes, and bad habits that you’ve been doing.

In this episode, I'm going to be explaining why you have to except the fact that you are a mess when it comes to your life, in order to fix your life. A lot of us at light there is nothing wrong with us. When, in all actuality, our lives are completely and totally a mess. It's a lot of things that we are holding onto that we do not want to let go of. A lot of behavior that we need to stop doing, that is not good for our lives that we continue to do every day. We continue to make the same choices in the same decisions that don't end well for us for multiple different reasons. So a lot of people don't want to deal with a shame, and the trauma of coming to this realization. But in order to recover, you're going to have to count it is realization .
