I return from my hiatus explaining about my divorce which came as a shocker to many. My family friend said that it was two people trying to make it work and just couldn't, you know, we had different Love Languages of way to show each other love and we just couldn't. It was different because it was like a bandaid on a scab, quickly pulling off a band-aid applied out within the pain slowly but surely going away. So even though it was amicable, and even though I technically walked away with nothing but lessons and memories, both good and bad, and my electronics and appliances, every divorce is different because neither one of us wanted it to be an ugly fight because we've seen it happen over and over in our lives. Yeah, it's possible, especially if you don't have kids and you don't have a house, that's how we're able to be smooth. Most people have difficult divorces, depending on the state they live in, depending on how many kids as well as depending on how many assets they had together. So we had none of that. So we were able to waive alimony, we've not gone to court with serving each other, so I'm glad that I didn't have a child through it because it would make things so much more difficult. And I'm grateful that I didn't really legally change my name everywhere. So there are a few things I got to change, remove, you know, like insurances, but it's not as much.

To conclude season two, I get to interview Constance Carter. She is an International Best-Selling Author, Investor, Speaker, and the CEO of the largest African American owned Residential Real Estate & Lending firm in Northern California. She runs the most prominent African American female-owned real estate firm in Northern California. Her books include O.N.E, Build Credit to Build Wealth, Keeping Score and the latest release, The Secret to Breaking the B.R.O.K.E Code. This book is aimed to help people realize their full God-given potential so they don’t only change their lives, but positively affect the lives of others. Recognizing that most people aren’t living up to their potential, Constance lays out the blueprint of what it takes to manifest your dreams. This book is for anyone who has the courage to break generational curses and create a legacy of wealth and royalty. For those who want to reflect on their life knowing they made a difference in someone else’s, and those individuals who have ever felt inadequate but believe life can be better.   Constance thrives in being a catalyst to bridging the inequities in underserved communities to create transformational change and creating legacies that transcend generations. Between running her successful real estate firm, public speaking, her training programs, media appearances, in addition to having a busy family of 6, she truly lives by her motto, "Nobody Works Harder than Constance Carter."

In this episode, you will listen to the table of contents, introduction, and the excerpt of the first chapter by my mother. I am a deaf-blind childhood cancer survivor who sees in one eye and wears hearing aids in both ears. As told by my mother and myself, be prepared to be inspired as you go through every emotion reading stories shared about overcoming adversity with resilience while fulfilling my love of music, travel, and photography. In this book, we share experiences on what we learned from living with nonhereditary bilateral retinoblastoma. This book helps you to gain a better understanding of this rare childhood eye cancer. If you like what you hear, I would like you to order the Kindle version of my memoir, Seeing Life Through a Different Lens, which is now on Amazon. If you prefer to receive an autographed version of the physical print copy, it is available on my website. zaakirahnayyar.com http://bit.ly/seelifedifferentlensebook Subscribe for free to future episodes: Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2TdAZ87 Google Play: http://bit.ly/2NzzSup Stitcher: https://www.stitcher.com/s?fid=378763&refid=stpr Apple Podcasts: apple.co/2NYapeh
