the newest episode currently under construction.
Thank you so much for joining me.

3
00:00:10.160 --> 00:00:12.679
I know it's been a little bit
since we've had a new episode, but

4
00:00:12.839 --> 00:00:17.679
we would definitely be back in full
rotation starting this week. So thank you

5
00:00:17.800 --> 00:00:20.800

I have so much to talk to you

00:00:20.920 --> 00:00:25.079

Yes, I thank you. So. I know you all sitting there

like, okay, what are you
thinking? Is for? Because this week,

9
00:00:36.520 --> 00:00:41.600
as of a few days ago,
we are now up to five thousand

10
00:00:41.679 --> 00:00:48.039
lists. I didn't see that coming. I had no inkling of it,

11
00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:55.359
and I am just still completely in
all. Thank you. Thank you to

12
00:00:55.560 --> 00:00:59.960

every last one of you who have follow

13
00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:03.679

listened to me since they one, who

14
00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:07.799
have supported these since they one,
who have continued to pour into me since

15
00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:10.719
they want and want to thank you. Want to take this time, at

16
00:01:10.719 --> 00:01:15.840
this moment to thank you because if
not for you all, we wouldn't be

17
00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:19.200
here. If not for you all
currently under construction would not exist. If

18
00:01:19.239 --> 00:01:23.640
not for you all, I wouldn't
have this particular platform. If not for

19
00:01:23.719 --> 00:01:32.719
you all, I wouldn't have had
the opportunity to find a positive therapeutic outlet

20
00:01:33.799 --> 00:01:44.560
that the most High was able to
present to me and to use not only

21
00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:49.040
just for me, but to pour
into others at the same time. So

22
00:01:49.239 --> 00:01:55.480
again, cousins and ken folks,
you all know that you are my village.

23
00:01:56.239 --> 00:02:00.879
Thank you, Thank you. Let's
continue to grow. Let's continue to

24
00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:02.640
keep this thing going. I know
I got to do. I have to

25
00:02:02.680 --> 00:02:07.120
do my power. There's no offense
about if we're going to continue to grow.

26
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:09.199
I have to continue to do my
power. So that means I have

00:02:09.199 --> 00:02:15.080

00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:22.280

107

poured into me so much, y'all have

108
00:08:46.639 --> 00:08:50.600
I've read your emails over the last
month or so. Man, Just the

109
00:08:50.440 --> 00:08:56.440
love and the prayers that you all
send me and everything. It just it's

110
00:08:56.480 --> 00:09:01.039
what's up, okay. So for
those of you who don't know, are

111
00:09:01.879 --> 00:09:09.000
having been rocking with me from the
beginning this time of year, is a

112
00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:13.639
little hard for me, especially this
month and leading into this month. So

113
00:09:13.720 --> 00:09:18.840
that's really why I took the time
away to process that, continue to go

114
00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:24.240
through that, and continue to allow
myself to deal with that and to grieve

115
00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:28.279
in my own way. But for
those of you who who don't know already,

116
00:09:28.919 --> 00:09:35.879
my second oldest daughter was murdered four
years ago around this time of year,

117
00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:41.480
So it's a little still a little
hard for me. I'm I'm I'm

118
00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:45.279
dealing with it. I'm not trying
to push it down, to push it

119
00:09:45.320 --> 00:09:52.000
away. I am grieving in my
own way, and it was hard for

120
00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:56.080
me to give you all the energy
and all that I needed to give y'all,

121
00:09:56.919 --> 00:10:03.279
and I'm dealing with that. So
I appreciate you all's patience. I

122
00:10:03.320 --> 00:10:07.799
appreciate you all sticking here with me. For those of you who knew that

123
00:10:07.960 --> 00:10:13.879
reached out and send your condolences or
asked what was going on is it's pertaining

124
00:10:13.960 --> 00:10:18.919
to the death of my daughter.
I really appreciate you all for that.

125
00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:22.600
Again, the way that you all
have poured into me and you still pour

126
00:10:22.639 --> 00:10:26.679
into me, and you pray for
me and with me, it means everything,

127
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:30.559
because again, that's what it's all
about. That's what a village does.

128
00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:33.279
We pour into each other, we
help each other, We by any

129
00:10:33.320 --> 00:10:37.919
and every way possible. So right
now, I just wanted to let you
