I could pick up a car with 18 people 😹😹
This was such an amazing episode and provided me with several aspects of clarity. Thank you so much!
Great episode...thanks for being wonderful. Merry Christmas 😊
I love it. I have no complaints. I honestly do not care if this podcast was from Facebook. O do not go to facebook often because it is too distracting and busy for me so I hope you keep this type of podcast for people like me who prefers to tune in via your podcast.
Loved the first part about procrastination and selfishness. I'm gonna keep that top of mind. Always Love your energy, enthusiasm, and Wisdom. The format though, on this episode, the FB live, wasn't quite as engaging. Hearing you bounce off others, like with their actual voices and emotions, I feel is such a strength that not showcasing it is like leaving money on the table. That said, I could listen to your special brand of Knowledge, Wisdom, Understanding and Wit all day every day. I look forward to hearing, and seeing what ever you bring. Thank You Hotep Y'all 🌄🌄🌄
