This episode consists of 26 life lessons I've learned along my journey here. Some were more personal than others but I'm sure that you can take many of these lessons and apply them to your own lives. Also, I'm challenging you to write down at least 5 lessons you've learned throughout your life as an exercise in self-reflection.

After some major self-reflection, I wanted to give you all some lessons I've had to learn the hard way over the years. It required some extreme vulnerability but I hope that it will help you avoid the potholes that I've been caught in time and time again.

This week, I'm giving you all a foundation for next week's podcast episode. I've been doing a lot of self-reflection that has allowed me to see that for a long time, I kept repeating the same situations until I learned the lessons I needed to move forward. Next week, we're talking about what those lessons and situations were.

As always, I'm talking to myself just as much as I'm talking to you all with this one. There are so many times in life where we feel like we're right on the brink of a dream or goal and then it doesn't pan out how we wished. Please remember that just because something doesn't happen in the time frame that you envisioned, that doesn't mean that it won't happen altogether. Delay is not denial.

Rona did not come to play. But in all seriousness, please consider others during this time and practice social distancing with these 10 Corona Activity Ideas. We have to take care of one another in difficult times. There may be people around you who are immune compromised (young and older people) and although you may feel well, please think of them and practice social distancing as much as you can.
Stay safe, clean, and carefree. Hope to talk to y'all next week!

I can't believe Black History month is almost over but in honor of the month and to wrap up our series on forgotten Black figures, let's talk about who inspired MLK. Vernon Johns not only served as inspiration but he also warmed up the people at Dexter Avenue Baptist church to be more active in the civil rights movement at a time where they couldn't have cared less.
