Since Mercury RX is coming to a close, I thought I reflect back on some changes I’ve experienced as a creator, entrepreneur, and in matters of love. Also, this episode covers the importance of being in alignment with your material world and spiritual world. Lastly, the importance of not letting people play with you, the value in operating out of love, and dating people with emotional baggage.

Today's episode focuses on why it's so important for us to NOT date when we lack emotional stability and maturity. Many people are on their healing journey working through their inner child traumas. Unfortunately, many people choose to unpack their traumas and think they can use their partners to go through their healing process. UM... NO. Sis or Sir, I'm here to tell you that when a person is unpacking their traumas in a connection; pack your bags and head to the door. Emotional stability is a major key to healthy connections and relationships... without it, trust, you'll lose your edges and go insane. In 2022, we choose healing and peace.

Straight from the vault comes this episode. Episode 11 was created back on 3/26 to focus on my steps to healing after experiencing an ending of a relationship/friendship. I think this episode will be helpful during Uranus Retrograde which is from 8/19-1/18/22. We will be experiencing a lot of shifts and endings. Therefore, this episode can help prepare you with how to heal from such endings.

Holla! Juneteenth is a mf'n holiday now! Today's episode focuses on the problem with people in Black Culture who give Karens the "black pass" to say the N-word. More importantly, I focus on the slander black/brown women endure in regards to mental health and motherhood by such Karens to addressing the cover art and comments in which Verb NYC's (a creative group who supports black artists through events/photography) founder supports Karen singing, sharing, and/or saying the N-word. As a community, we should be more united and not allow white people to step outside of their race. We shouldn't tolerate such blatant disrespect. Most importantly, we need to dismantle the "Black Pass" culture as the black pass doesn't exist. I hope this episode teaches this community just that. I've personally and publicly invited @v3rb.nyc to Episode 10 to have a conversation for the culture.

Baybeee... Today's episode is a RANT on people who wear a mask. On social media, we have a lot of control over what we allow others to see.
