Tomorrow is Gratitude Day (or Thanksgiving) and Felicia and Karega reflect on what grief can look like during the holiday period. How does one find gratitude in deep moments of sadness? Is it okay to allow yourself time to grieve while still being thankful? As always, Karega and Felicia process what this has looked like for them, and what they hope anyone who is navigating grief is receiving at this time.

As always, thank you all for your love. Thank you for being present on the journey.

May we all love more abundantly.

Intentional Communication

Karega and Felicia discuss the complexities of communication. Ensuring that someone feels heard can be more important than simply hearing the words come out when communicating with one another. It is said by many that effective communication requires more listening than talking. They also touch on communication in the workplace, a space that they are still trying to wrap their heads around since the workplace is technically, home.

As always, thank you all for your love. Thank you for being present on the journey.

May we all love more abundantly.

Leaning Into Love When Challenged

Peace Good People! Today we are processing in real time! This day started out like no other Karega and Felicia have experienced in their 18 plus years of being together. It was a disconnect that carried ramifications throughout the day and had Karega wondering how to process the gamut of feelings that come with the challenge of feeling othered. While he and Felicia share the whole story from both sides, Karega finally finds what he needs to do (and what we can all do) when presented with this challenge... choose love.
