I will also explore how these principles can be applied to our own lives, particularly in the context of singleness, although married couples are also encouraged to explore and apply these principles to their marriages. I know I intend to!!!You may agree to disagree, or you very well may agree. However, it can be said that by being intentional in cultivating a right relationship with GOD through the Holy Spirit, and while immersing ourselves in the Word of GOD, as well as, by remaining steadfast in the face of temptation, like Jesus, we too can find fulfillment, purpose and ultimately bring glory to GOD. Hopefully, by reading about the life Jesus led in the bible, we can become inspired and strive to emulate His example in our own lives, as singles, one day at a time. Understanding that we too have the power to resist temptation and avoid fulfilling the lust of our flesh by applying the knowledge and godly wisdom we gain from reading the Bible. Listen in as I embark upon this enlightening journey and delve a little into the life of Jesus, discovering the path to finding glory in our own lives. I hope this episode encourages someone!

Hello Good People, I hope everyone is doing well or on their way to being much better! On today's episode, I will continue with the "Single's Series" and "Anna" the widow will be our focus on today. I will be reading from the book of Luke Chapter 2, in its entirety (verses 1- 52) from the Message Bible. As I read this passage, you will see Jesus referenced as well. Please note, I use the Bible as a point-of-reference for both married and single people. Although this is not considered a “Christian Podcast” per se, the Bible is one of my Resources.That being said, in Luke 2, Anna teaches us something about "Belief and Believing". This is one reason why I wanted to discuss her on this episode. Although not spoken to on this episode, in and of itself, believing can have a lot of benefits. Below are a few benefits that believing can you lead to: Feeling better Feeling healthier Giving yourself grace to fail forward. Reduce feelings of loneliness, by understanding that your now season does not have to mean your forever season. It can inspire you to never give up on yourself! It can become the fuel you need to keep pressing toward your goals so that you can begin to reach them. In the Bible, "believe" simply means to trust that what you hear and or see is true. It also means that our faith in GOD becomes ever so strong that we are willing to follow the blueprint He has set before us, which is considered "the WORD of GOD", the bible. Therefore, believing in GOD, if we are open to this option, could help us to live a life filled with purpose and meaning.Listen in as I unpack how "Anna" chose to make this her choice as a widow. I hope this episode encourages someone. Be encouraged.

Hello Good People! I hope you are doing well or on your way to feeling much better! Welcome to another exciting episode of the "Dear Future Hubby" podcast. I am your host and content creator, Teresa Reese. Today I will be delving into episode 59 of my fourth season. If you are new to the podcast, this is a space where I share insights, advice, and personal experiences on relationships, personal growth, and the journey to finding love. This podcast aims to prepare you for love, and not just any love but the right kind of love.Embrace the Gift!On this episode, I am discussing a topic that resonates deeply with many of us: “Embracing the Gift”. I understand oftentimes when we hear the word 'gift', we tend to think this means someone is talking about the unique qualities that make you who you are. For example, the traits, talents, and abilities that set you apart and make you uniquely you. These are typically the ‘gifts’ most people are referring to, the type of gifts that not only define you but also have a significant impact on how you relate to others, especially in romantic relationships.And although many people often struggle with embracing their unique gifts because they may feel insecure about their talents, or they may feel like their gifts are not 'good enough' or 'valuable enough', this is not what this episode will be about.Let me just say though, that this often stems from societal pressures and expectations, as well as personal insecurities. However, it is important to remember that your ‘gifts’ are what make you unique and special. They are what set you apart from the rest of the crowd. Therefore, embracing your gifts is not just about accepting who you are, but also about celebrating your individuality and uniqueness.On this episode, however, to “Embrace the gift”, under this context means that will be speaking to the ‘gift’ of marriage and the ‘gift’ of singleness. Why? Because oftentimes, some people who are single spend a lot of time desiring to be married and some people who are married spend a lot of time desiring to be single! So, I wanted to unpack this from a biblical perspective. In fact, I will be reading 1 Corinthians, chapter 7- from the Message Bible. I hope this episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.

As I am still going over the series of events that took place on yesterday, I wanted to take a moment to address the importance of listening!
In my personal opinion, and you can choose to agree or disagree with it...When we use our listening skills, this can help us to not make quick, anxious decisions, without considering and/or applying the insight and wisdom of someone who has gone "before us".

Today, I wanted to talk a little about buried talents. And pose the question, “What Have You Done with Your Talents?”. I ask this question because oftentimes we allow the opinions of others to stifle our growth, mentally, emotionally, physically, psychologically, socially and even spiritually. Why is this? Friendly Reminder: You do not have to co-sign on a naysayers opinion of you! However, sometimes the naysayers are so cunning in how they oppose your dreams that you may not see it coming until after the fact. That’s okay. Once you recognize it, debunk it! Listen in as I unpack this, one example at a time. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.

Today is a continuation on my study of wives in the Bible. I will be reading from the Message Bible about the story of Isaac and Rebekah. I truly enjoyed reading about this couple in Genesis 24. And I observed a few things while reading this chapter. Listen in as I attempt to understand what I read and share my perspective on this subject. My question to my future Hubby is: “Are You Ready?” because “I Am Ready” to be your Wife, in my Rebekah voice. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged!

Listen in as I speak from the matters of my heart. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be Encouraged!
The Bible says, “He that finds a wife, finds a good thing and obtains favor from the LORD”. Well, in the book of Genesis 29:20-35;30:1-43, the story of Jacob and Rachel speaks to how Jacob favored Rachel. I have said it before, and I will say it again, I don’t want the “Spirit of Leah” because in the Bible, Leah was unloved. However, Jacob loved Rachel so much that he was willing to work for her, for 14 years. Ladies, can you imagine a man loving you so much that he is willing to work for your hand in marriage for as long as it takes?! Now, that kind of love IS Favor! Listen in as I unpack this story. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
On today’s episode, I speak about Jacob and Leah’s marriage in Genesis chapter 29. It’s interesting to me how some of the details I see now in the Bible have never truly stood out to me until this particular season of my life. Listen in as I speak on this subject. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged!
As Promised, I have recorded Part 2. On this episode I attempt to unpack Hosea 1 and 2. I am not a Theologian. However, I do desire to learn more about myself and more in this journey of singleness. The book of Hosea speaks about Hosea and Gomer. Hosea is a prophet and Gomer is a prostitute. What an interesting marriage arrangement! On this Episode, I attempt to share my perspective on what I have read. Listen in as I unpack my understanding of these two chapters. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged!
This Episode was unexpected and unscripted but definitely interrupted! So we will call this Part I. My apologies in advance. However, I did Not want to erase what was already recorded. And as most of you know, on this Podcast, we are R.A.W. (Real and Wise) and what you hear is what you get! In the book of Hosea, chapters 1 and 2, I will be speaking about his Hosea’s wife, Gomer. My PSA Announcement: I am not a Theologian. I am simply a woman who has a desire to remarry my True Husband someday. In the meantime, while I am in my singleness journey, I am learning more about how to become the very best version of myself so that LORD willing, Someday, I will be the very best wife I can be! During this season of my journey, I am studying the wives in the Bible, to learn what to do and what not to do as a Good Wife! Listen in as I attempt to unpack what I have read in this chapter. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged!
“Intermission” time has ended and it is time to resume my study of wives in the Bible! Today, I am reading out of the book of Ruth in the Message Bible, chapters 2-4.

Also, to day is Memorial Day, remember to love on your loved ones Today. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged!
I wanted to take a moment to clear up something I said on the “Have You Changed Your Perspective?” Episode (Episode22 Season4). I also wanted to speak more on changing our perspective. Consider this an extension of the “Intermission”. As I was unpacking my perspective on why it is necessary to pray for our enemies, especially the “inner me” within, I discovered something else about myself. Listen in as I speak on the reason I believe we should not be afraid to ask the question, “Why”? I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged!
If you have been listening to any of my latest episodes, I have been reading scriptures in the Bible and speaking on the different wives in the Bible. However, consider today’s episode as the “Intermission” episode. As I prepare for the next wife in the Bible, I wanted to speak to changing our perspective(s). Today’s episode is extremely transparent, more than most. However, that’s because I wanted to speak on a truth that I hold close to my heart and that is the power to change our perspectives, especially when it comes to hearing/receiving what some may consider “unfavorable news”! Listen in as I speak from my heart. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
Well, some of these questions I believe I must pose to evaluate myself in my NOW season. In my opinion, which is could become subject to change, preparing to become someone’s True Wife is not about the Title. Instead, I believe it is about the content of my character. Therefore, why leave some things to chance? I aspire to study as many wives in the Bible as I can, to glean from their wisdom and to learn from some of their mistakes. Hopefully, in doing so, I will become the very best version of myself. GOD willing, my True Husband will also be able to see the “Good Thing” he has chosen by choosing me to be his wife and vice versa. I desire to see the “Good” man I have chosen to be my True Husband. In the meantime, in between time, listen in as I speak to 1 Samuel 24:1-25:44 on Abigail and Nabal (whose name means ‘Fool’). I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.

Today, I am speaking about Sarah in the Bible and how it could look when we choose to take matters into our own hands rather than wait on GOD! So I ask you, “Is Anything Too Hard for GOD”? You may say “Yes” or you may say “No”. I say, listen in as I speak to this subject. I am studying various wives in the Bible and learning so much about myself during this process. Allow me to be R.A.W. (Real and Wise) while I unpack Genesis 16; 17-19:1-3 (not necessarily in this order). I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged!
Today, I wanted to address a certain passage in scripture. It comes from the book of Job (one of my most favorite books in the Bible) Chapter 2 verses 9-13.

My apologies but Part I was interrupted mid sentence, which is Why I created a Part II. However, may be you have or maybe you have not heard these words before directly, “It’s Not All About You” but for me, in one way, form or fashion, I have been hearing these words my entire life!

They often say, “What doesn’t Kill You, Will Only Make You Stronger!” Well, I truly believe that This was meant to Kill Me! But GOD!!! He blocked that part! Although He allowed me to experience it. He didn’t allow it to Kill Me! For this I am grateful. I cannot speak to whether or not I am stronger because of it, individually, yet. However, collaboratively, it is true… Two is better than One! Listen in as I speak on this subject. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
Well, they say if you just “live long enough”. I guess, I have lived long enough to know when my whole soul is tired! A.k.a. weary. With that being said, what do you do when your soul gets tired?

Listen in as I unpack this subject, the best way I know how… Transparently! I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
More times than often, when we are hurting and some asks us, “How are you doing?” Or “How are you feeling?” Our immediate response is, “I am doing okay” or “I am feeling okay”. But what exactly are you hiding from them? I get it. They may not need to know your entire situation and/or truth. However, are you hiding that from yourself too?! What I have recently discovered is that it’s one thing to hide from others those inner revelations you haven’t quite owned about yourself in their entirety. I get it. However, it’s a whole other thing when you are hiding from yourself. When we know better, we should truly do better. During this most recent series of events, I discovered that fear had crept up unaware and I was hiding my fears without full knowledge of me doing so. However, it took something extreme for me to sit with self long enough to ask “Why?”. Why was this happening to Me?! Truth be told, I am still soul searching. I have not arrived but I am striving for answers, daily. Listen in as, I touch on this subject briefly. I hope this Episode encourages Someone. Be encouraged.

If you have never experienced a bad day… Keep on living! That’s what the seasoned folks used to always tell us young folks. However, now that I am becoming one of those ‘Seasoned Folks”, I understand what they were trying to convey! Trials and tribulations will come. Quite frankly, there is no way around them! However, despite everything you may be going through, I want to decree, “Better Days” over you! I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
Today, I chose to focus on Listening. I didn’t talk much on today, aside from this Episode. Instead, I listened. I listened to those people around me, I took notes. I listened to this Beautiful Psalmist called, “DOE”. I listened to my heart, spirit and soul. Most of all, I listened for the voice of GOD. I am going through and the Only One who can bring me out is Him! I trust Him even when I cannot Trace Him. This isn’t always an easy thing to do. I know. But that’s where your Faith comes from. My desire has remained in tact this entire time. I long to be pleasing in His sight and I desire to do His Will. So I listened on today. Just in case He showed up on the scene, I didn’t want to miss Him if He spoke to me in His still Small Voice. Listen in as I speak my truth. I understand that I am not the only person who is going through something. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
What an interesting question, isn’t it? However, one that I have asked GOD recently. Listen in as I speak my truth concerning this very subject. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
Part II. I wanted to conclude the full episode since we were interrupted. When it is all said and done, what the Devil means for Bad, GOD means it for our good! Therefore, even after the worst of storms a rainbow will always appear. I do not have all of the answers but I trust GOD! For some, this may mot be enough, but for me, He is what I NEED! I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
My apologies in advance, this episode was interrupted. However, This episode may be the most Transparent of them All!!! Sit back, listen and reflect as I unpack this reality for some, what if your child opts to sabotage us? Part I. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.

I am eternally grateful! I love y’all beyond measure! Thank you for being You! Y’all know who you are! I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
Well, insomnia must be so real that I couldn’t complete this Episode because sleep took over! However, it was 10,665 steps on 4/8/2022! I am just a little proud of that milestone right there! I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
I can tell you right from the start, everyone will not agree with my take on this subject and that is really okay! However, I wanted to follow up on the episode where I spoke about Will Smith slapping Chris Rock. Especially after finding out about Chris Rock’s disorder. Truth be told, when we know better, we should strive to do better. However, this will Not be everyone’s testimony. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
How are you showing up and how are you choosing? Sometimes we allow the superficial to be our choice maker and not allow wisdom to be our guide. Although there are many books out there on wisdom, how many of us truly read any of them? Do you know if you lack wisdom, you can read the book of Proverbs in the Bible to gain some wisdom?! Well, I ask this because I believe when choosing our purpose partners, true wisdom is required. We could make the wrong choice based off of surface thinking if we aren’t. Listen in as I talk about choosing a mate. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
OMG!!! I just finished moving over the last couple of days y’all and when I tell you that I have a newfound respect for Anyone who has chosen move furniture for a living!

I learned a few valuable things during this process and I wanted to share. Listen in as I talk about embracing change. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
Well, whether you asked for my opinion of the most recent fiasco or not, I am going to give it to you! Listen in as I speak on Will Smith defending his wife, Jada Pickett-Smith’s honor. This episode is as Real and Wise as I can be in this moment. Do you agree or Nah?! Remember, on this Podcast, it is okay for us to agree to disagree. I do not condone violence but I Do condone self-defense!!! I hope this Episode enlightens someone! Be encouraged.
Rejoice!!! When was the last time you heard this word? Better yet, when was the last time that you did this?! Rejoice for Someone else? Or even Rejoice for Yourself! There is a saying, “Treat Others How You Want to Be Treated!” Well, do You want to be Celebrated? Do you wish other people would clap for you? Do you want other people to Rejoice for you too? Have you started with You? This inquiring mind would love to know! Only because this is something I’ve had to teach myself to do over the years. Not only rejoice for others but to rejoice for My own Self Too!!! Listen in as I speak on this subject. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
Are you someone who goes around saying, “I Need To Be Loved” on a regular basis? Or do you just think it but no one really knows how you feel? Truth of the matter is, Love is Necessary. Quite similar to breathing if you ask me! And even if you didn’t ask me, I want to talk about love! So, listen in as I unpack this subject. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
Well, it must be because here I am waiting on you to manifest in my life! Right? It requires Patience to wait for your Purpose Partner to come into fruition! Or does it?! Some folks may agree to disagree. Nevertheless, over time, I have come to realize that I must be patient. Especially with myself! Then with others. Typically, whatever area I am impatient in, is an area I must need to grow in. I am just saying. However, I understand the importance of Patience and I know this will be required should I ever re-marry. So, I might as well work on it now! Wouldn’t you agree? Listen in as I speak on my understanding of why Patience is a virtue! I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
Sometimes we just need to be bold enough to ask the question, “Who Is Stopping You?” Are we standing in our own way? Is it our own false belief systems holding us back? Have we inadvertently co-signed for someone else’s negative perception of us? If the answer is ‘yes’ to any of these questions, the next question becomes, ‘Why’? Did you know you have the power to change your own narrative? It’s not always easy, but You are Worth It! If you have been stopping you, listen in as I speak briefly on this subject in hopes of helping Someone change the narrative. You deserve to live your best life Now! I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.

I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
This inquiring mind just has to know! After having an experience or two with a Coward. I made sure to include in my prayers that my Future Hubby would be a Non-coward? Why? Well, because I need a Man of GOD with a Spine! This may sound a bit harsh but for me, it is a requirement, not an option! Listen in as I unpack this subject and provide some insight on what it means to be a coward versus what it means to be a non-coward. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
Today, an interesting subject will be addressed, “Self-Work”. Many times, we may believe that if we have addressed a couple of things, it counts for the majority but when it comes to self-work, this includes addressing everything. So today, a part of ‘everything’ will be tackling relationships, both platonic and romantic. Tune in as I introduce my Special Guest, my Son, Xavier. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
Am I the only person in the world who has had a “Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing” experience? I think Not! Where you were deceived into wholeheartedly believing that someone was truly for you, only yo discover over time that this was the furthest thing from the truth? Believe me, I could probably write an entire book on this subject write here! However, in the meantime, I have opted to share my perspective on this subject in hopes that it will help Someone not fall in the same deceptive trap. People who are operating as sheep knowing they are wolves, intend to destroy you. Whether it be your Brand, Your Reputation, Your Trust, Your Perception of Them, Your Perception of Yourself, the list goes on. Most times, you do not even recognize the wolf is not a sheep until the damage has already been done. This is a sad reality for a lot of people. And although everyone is not as naive as I once was, to Believe what people said rather than watch their actions, I have learned the expensive way that ‘wolves in sheep’s clothing’ is not a figment of my imagination. These types of people DO exist. They intentionally Prey on you, rather that Pray a fervent and righteous prayer For You. Bottom line… Wolves in Sheep’s Clothing are against you! Not For You!!! I hope this Episode encourages Someone. Be encouraged.
This may or may not be a subject that I have touched on over the year but if it is, consider this an overview.

I am referring to the child(ren) of those blended families. Listen in as I share one of my blended family experiences. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.

I think it is quite interesting how once I began to open up my mind to what it is I do not want to experience in relationships, that I have started to learn about subjects I have never even taken the time out to gain knowledge and wisdom on before. Is this you? Maybe you ran across a person who was gaslighting you, you weren’t even aware of what that word meant until it became your own reality. Maybe you are in a healthy relationship, but since it is your first experience in a healthy relationship, you are doing all you can to study and make sure certain toxic behaviors do not become a part of the dynamic because you desire for this relationship to blossom into something beautiful! So you are willing to do the Self-work and Heal! Maybe you have experienced a Breadcrumber in times past and you want to break any and all soul ties so that that experience does not bleed into your brand new experience. Whatever the reason. Listen in as I talk about Breadcrumbing. Have you been a Breadcrumber before or are you a Breadcrumber now? Last but not least, have you been Breadcrumbed before? I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
Oftentimes, when life hits us kind of hard, we stop dreaming! Either we bury our dreams, defer our dreams or let our dreams go. Why is that? Remember how when we were young we used to Imagine beyond measure? Nothing and no one could stop us from Imagining whatever it was we wanted to imagine. Not even our parents! Well, as I have been listening/reading, this book inspired me to share my belief in regards to why you should not stop dreaming! However, sometimes we have Nightmares! I hope your Nightmare stops abruptly! My heart also goes out to the Ukrainians, and anyone impacted by this tragedy. Please listen in as I share my opinion on this subject. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
Today, I wanted to share a Poem I wrote, entitled “A Fighting Chance”, it is a Tribute to Love. In my poem,I speak to the nuances of relationships. This poem was written from my heart as all of the poems I have ever written are. However, I truly hope that the words minister to those who can wholeheartedly relate. Give Love a Fighting Chance, Give Yourself a Fighting Chance and give those who genuinely, wholeheartedly love you, a Fighting Chance. You deserve to be Loved unconditionally. Listen in as I speak on this subject. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
Who can find a virtuous woman? Well, as much as I would love to believe that my future Hubby will be able to say that he found virtue in me, I decided to dig a little deeper and study “virtue”. Today on this Episode, I find the definition of some of them and talk about the 5 Love Languages as well. We often hear, “Patience is a Virtue”. And waiting sometimes can be a bit much. But while we wait, tells its own story about the virtue we possess. Listen in as I attempt to unpack this very subject. I hope this Episode encourages Someone. Be encouraged.
🚨 If you are someone who is easily triggered, please do not listen to this Episode🚨 This Episode is Dedicated to my Six Beautiful Children.

However, if I ever want to remarry someday, it is a tool I know I will need going forward. Not only to be applied towards my future hubby and others but to always be applied to muse as well. Listen in as I unpack this subject and how it applies to my own life! I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be Encouraged.
This episode is dedicated to a dear friend of mine, she knows who she is. I call her “Sis”. However, per our conversation on yesterday, I was encouraged by her to do an episode on Self-Sabotage. Because My sole intent is to Heal from the matters of my heart and from my past. I obliged. I hope this episode will help Someone to see this subject from a different perspective. Sometimes it takes Transparency for others to Heal. Well, let me be that person who through my transparency helps you to find healing. Listen in as I speak on this subject. I hope this Episode encourages Someone. Be encouraged.

It is hard to believe that Valentine’s Day came so quickly around this year! It seems like the year 2022 just began and now Valentine’s Day has come to an end! Or has it?! Are you still celebrating Love Day? Depending on who you are and who you are with, could it be that you Celebrate this Day a little different? If you do, that’s okay too.

Listen in as I discuss this subject for a few minutes. Either way, I hope you had the most amazing Valentine’s Day. I also hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
In listening to an interview on this morning, a subject came up, “Gaslighting”. Truth be told, I had limited understanding about what this meant until I opted to research it a little further. Today, I gained more knowledge on this subject. Although it may take a more in-depth study over time for me to gain an even better understanding, listen in as I attempt to offer more clarity on this subject. I am not a doctor, I am nit licensed nor am I a Therapist. I am merely a Student of Life, who desires to learn more about myself, as well as, others. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.

To listen in as I begin to unpack what this means to me. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be Encouraged.
As I was mapping out my day this morning, the words, “Soul Ties” dropped into my Spirit! Hmmm. This is an amazing subject I don’t ever remember speaking about. I wondered why? In some ways, it seems as if this would have been One of the First subjects for me to bring up, since one of the my reasons why I began my Abstinence journey was for me to work on severing soul ties from men from my past!

I had forgotten all about this poem I wrote many years ago but I am glad it is the one I turned to on today’s episode. Men, have you made a covenant with your eyes not to stare upon women in a lustful manner? Women have you made a covenant with your bodies not to use them as objects to “get what you want” from men? So many times we are driven to do things for all of the wrong reasons. Why is that? In my opinion, some learned behaviors should be Unlearned! Listen in as I dive into this subject a little. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be Encouraged.

I believe that this depends on the Person!!! Listen in as I share my perspective on this subject. My apologies for the quick disconnect, be on the lookout for Part II. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.

As much as I have tried at times to avoid this like the plague…lol… the truth of the matter is, exercising is healthy for you when done correctly. Seek guidance from your physician if you begin a workout regimen which potentially cause you more harm than health! However, as time goes on and I begin to see that there are many things that are beyond my control. The one thing I can control is the amount of exercise I do in a day, week or in a month. So I have decided to figure this exercise thing out once again. Not only for my physical health but also for my mental health. Who is with me? I am working on the best version of me! I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Be encouraged.
