"Invest in Yourself"
Hey y'all! This discussion is about doing the work necessary on your personal and professional development. No one should go through life being the exact same from month to month and year to year. I found a great website that offered a multitude of tips and suggestions for your personal and professional growth and development. If it is time away you need...DO THAT! If it is an attitude adjustment...by all means DO THAT. Go to a seminar, read a book, get a mentor, do all the things necessary to elevate yourself on a personal and professional level. Lastly, no matter how much you think you know, ALWAYS BE TEACHABLE! Anywho...join the Q-Crew so you don't miss a beat. Don't forget to #BeeIntentional with your words, your thoughts, and your actions. And as always #PinkSugarKisses

Hey Y'all! This episode has been a long time coming and is long overdue. We all face trials in life that make us simply want to throw in the towel and quit. But we can't.

When you feel as if you need to stop and take a break, do just that but keep it moving once you are rejuvenated. Use those down moments to reflect and strategize your next move.

"How Finances Can Affect Your Relationship" with Ahmad Perry, Sr.
Hey y'all! How many of you are in a relationship of any kind and find yourself arguing over money? Arguing about who makes what, how and where it is spent, and even down to how money is saved? If you answered yes or even slightly nodded your head, then this message is for you! Ahmad breaks down some key elements that lead to the breakdown of relationships in reference to money. You will be surprised at the one of the key factors. I must say this message truly convicted me. I am mature enough to admit my relationship with money was not always built on a solid foundation. I pray this blesses you as it did me.

Casual Conversations: I Forgive Myself
Hey Y'all! I felt it was time for me to bare just a bit more of myself in order to move forward in life. If I want to be happy, healthy, and whole, I need to face some uncomfortable truths about myself. Hopefully, my openness will help you on your journey to living a life free from the bondage you put yourself into. Now before you get too excited, this is not a tell all. This is not true confessions. I do however admit that I did some things in my life that has caused others hurt. While I forgive myself for choosing to be free from bondage, I don't excuse the behavior. We may never get the opportunity to ask for forgiveness from the other party, we just have to pray that God hears our plea and makes it right on our behalf. Thank you for listening.

Between The Lines: "We the People"
Hey y'all! On this episode of Between The Lines, I discuss how this topic was inspired by reading the Preamble to the Constitution. I don't go into deep detail about all of the frustrations black people in America are facing in 2020. I do know that we cannot protest, riot, and loot forever. I also know that demonstrations in decades past lasted for years. I am not trying to impose a time limit as to when we should come out of the streets and into board rooms. Lastly, I also know that we the BLACK people have more power than we realize. We are equipped with immense wherewithal to create some amazing things. We are going to have to form our own "perfect union" and being to build and grow entities that cater to our culture and specific needs. Anywho... I know progress and change takes time. However, we can't move forward standing still and getting in the way of others who are trying to make progress. Don't forget to join the Q-Crew so you don't miss a beat.

Casual Conversations: Decluttering
Hey y'all!! Welcome to Season 2! Before I got here, I had to take a pause and do some work of my own. The summer brought down some heavy emotions I had to deal with or else I would have drowned. It was only fitting that the first episode out of the gate was about clearing your emotional, spiritual, and even physical space. First, you have to acknowledge your issues before you can begin to unpack and deal with them. I give several suggestions that worked for me. I also stated that there is no magic formula or "one size fits all" fix. However, in order to move forward, you have to DECLUTTER what's right in front of you.
