We should always remember and never forget our country was built on protest and it is our God given right to express our freedoms through protest. Let us never forget the words of the late Congressman John Lewis.... We should always be willing to make "GOOD TROUBLE" for what is right for a...

We realize life causes alteration and sometimes goals get reshuffled while some fall to the wayside...

In this episode, we discuss steps you'll want to take to author your book. Most authors would agree the toughest part about writing a book is to start writing.

Welcome to season 4! This episode is my message about setting goals. I believe it takes one simple thing to make positive strides towards your goal, and that is getting into the right mindset.
