Invited

Everyone envisions meeting "the one" as a magical experience, but when your heart has been broken many times before, meeting your person isn't always rainbows and butterflies in your perspective. This episode recounts the road leading up to meeting my husband and our journey of exploration of true love for the very first time.

I pause my planned content today to bring you the voices of two dear friends of mine as they share with us how to love more deeply and intentionally during the movements occuring with the black community today. Kinte and Kerri are vulnerable, raw, and transparent as they share their hearts and insight as a means to educate and inform all of us of what it means to listen more and love deeper right now and always.

Guilt is real and deep rooted. People carry around the weight of guilt in many ways and it can be overwhelming, but can be overcome. Relearning what love is means first chiseling away at any guilt and shame in order to forgive yourself and let go of the past. There is freedom waiting when these chains are broken.

You may be a friend to many, but are you truly letting others love you well? Or are you setting up walls and barriers to accepting goodness and love in return? Forming reciprocated trusting relationships can be difficult, but perfect love casts out all fear in this journey.

The journey we go on to overcome past trauma begins with us but doesn't end there. It is important to overcome in order to change the trajectory for your life, others' lives, and future generations. The work you are doing is a BIG DEAL. Celebrate as I close my last episode of season 1 and invite you to join me for season 2 beginning in a few short weeks!
