When Survival Looks Like Success

How often do you look at someone's picture online or in a magazine and think "Damn, they must have it all together!" But what you don't see is the pain, the taxing mental struggle, and the sacrifice that goes into all of it. This podcast is about that peek behind the curtain where we discuss changes that need to be made, share our stories, and tell the truth about some hard topics in an effort to create community and comradery.

On this week's episode, we have Ray AKA 100K Ray, my producer and entrepreneurial titan of 100K World and Growth Camp XL who meets with me to talk about toxic masculinity, and some spicy questions that it seems like people are afraid to ask.
Because, well, why not?
I am a white and Mohawk woman. I do not know what it is like to be a man, and an African American man at that. If you want conversations to happen, if you want different perspectives, or an introspective viewpoint, then you have to start dialogue.
I had so many people propose topics for this episode, like asking a woman out on a date, body image issues, breaking generational cycles, the list honestly goes on and on, we could have had a 4-hour episode on this topic.
The important part is that we start talking about this.
This generation of men needs to have channels and facilities to talk about functioning in our current modern society, and hopefully, this is a good platform to do so.
*Disclaimer-maybe don't listen to this one on speaker with your 8 year old in the car.*

Well now that you have gotten to know me a little bit better, it's time to jump in. Or dip our toes in the water. Or whatever analogy feels best to you.
This episode is all about thinking differently about our labor chains. And by chains, I mean the chains that bind us to the system.
We have this precious time here on Earth and we are squandering it away devoting our lives to our trades of choice instead of experiencing all that the world has to offer.
This episode is designed to help us reevaluate what's important and what we can do about the struggle known as "work".
There is no one size fits all approach to making more time for yourself, but the most important things is that you start.
For you.
For your family.
For your soul.

Joining me in the studio is 2 independent contractors from Breathe: Bodywork and Beautification, Anaya of Glow my Body Spa and Krystal of Massaged by Krystal.
We have a discussion about disenfranchised grief or unconventional grief-grief that isn't commonly recognized by society and can often be overlooked or invalidated from peers, coworkers, family, or friends.
But we ALL experience it!
It's a very important episode that SO many people will relate to.
Loss of a pet.
Not having a parent.
Losing a job.
Struggling with identity.
The list could go on and on.
Share with us your story of grief.
We'd love to hear from you.

Welcome to our first guest of the season, Jacob Sidock of Cracked Lens Media! I started working with Jacob in the fall and now we have been doing a lot together. Photoshoots, public speaking, and he shot our killer intro and outro video for this podcast!
This episode is about trying to identify what survival mode is, when you are in it, and how to get out of it. We go into our backgrounds, hustling, and just trying to survive, to make something out of nothing.
This is such a great episode to listen to if you feel like you never get a helping hand or struggle with attempting to start something.

In Episode 2, I talk a little bit about ghosting.
I am no stranger to it and it's a pattern that has repeated throughout my life.
One incidence is a struggle.
But after so many, it can take a pretty severe toll on your ability to trust, to connect, and to move forward with friendships.
