In this week's episode of #MomsandMartinis, I am joined at the table with Penrose Eames from Penrose versus Anybody Podcast. We answer the question, do you truly need a license to love? We explore beliefs in marriages, relationships, dating, and prenups. We talked about having the option to opt out of the marriage, without penalty, at the two year renewal process. Penrose shares why he believe his lady was created just for him and why he believes their relationship is so solid.

In this week's episode, we get back to love and relationships with my special panel of guests; Kaci, Kay Kay, Mista Calhoun, and BJ. We discussed out interpretation to the song Take Care by The Dream. I immediately kicked things off with the important question asking what does it means to be taken care of? We also discussed that it means to be encompassed by love, and why some people fantasize the idea of being in a relationship without looking at the reality of the work it takes to maintain a healthy relationship. This topic was a great one with many varying opinions.

In this week's episode of Moms and Martinis, Kaci, Kay Kay, Calhoun and I continue the conversation about setting the table. We discuss identifying the red flags before entering a relationship, dating a man with children, the differences between standards and preferences. We also discuss dating someone who was not what we considered to be the ideal mate and how the relationship worked. Calhoun gives the ladies tips on how to show effort in a relationship.
Despite the in-depth conversation, we are still left with so many questions. Do we blame society for the narrative that is being shared about the division between men and women? Is there a double standard for men and women? Are men judged by their money? Are women judged based on their sexual partners? Are plus-size women looked at as fetishes?

In this week's episode, I am joined by Mista Calhoun of the Digital Daron podcast.

Mista Calhoun also gives us a crash course in Domestic Discipline and how it adds structure in a relationship. Is this the Christian way? We discuss the four D's of domestic discipline: dishonesty, disobedience, dangerous (behavior), and disrespect. How punishment is administered if the woman breaks the rules, including spanking, sitting in the corner, restricting electronic devices. Take some notes as we learn a few new terms: Domestic discipline of often abbreviated as DD. There is also CDD for Christian Domestic Discipline. Other terms include HOH, or head of household (the dominant man), and TiH, or taken in hand (the submissive woman). -
Most people are familiar with five love languages: receiving gifts, quality time, words of affirmation, acts of service, and physical touch. These patterns of behavior are developed over time and determine what we understand as love.

Kira, mom of four, from Atlanta, Georgia, invites you to witness candid moments in her life, as she tries new things and go new places; all while becoming a better person and mother, and keeping her mental health in check.
In this week’s episode, Kira is joined at the table with Christian of Dem Chakras podcast to discuss the art of minding your business. Using the analogy of a traffic light, they discuss when to stop, when to slow down, and when to move full speed ahead. They also defined self-care and implementing healthy boundaries. Christian shares how she began her spiritual path and the shadow work she completed to realign herself when you felt lost. Christian challenges us all to examine if we truly like ourselves, identify what makes us uncomfortable, define our healthy boundaries, and examine if we are on brand. They also discuss the importance of mentors, gathering feedback, the importance of the root chakra, why it stabilizes everything you do, and why you should NOT gift people your business.
Here are a few questions to ponder:
What are the signs that you need to stop to recalibrate to become balanced and realigned?
When should you slow down to take inventory of things in your life to determine what's next?
How can one tell if they are in full alignment and living purposefully?
