Real Faith Talk

In episode 5, I continue the mental health series I started in episode 2. It’s now time for part 2 and this time I talk about depression. I cover the differences between anxiety and depression, contributing factors, and “toxic positivity”. Never heard of it?!, no worries. I break it down with several examples. I also cover the idea of seeing a therapist. It may never be the trendy option, but never mind that. Your mental stability is more valuable than someone’s negative opinion. Next in Karen’s Kommentary, I talk about Dogecoin. You may have seen it making headlines recently as being a popular cryptocurrency. Well, it wasn’t always making big moves as it is today, so I had to speak about it. Thanks to the tweets from Elon Musk and social media hype, it looks as though Dogecoin has some solid footing and is here to stay. Music used in this episode: (opening/closing song) Snoop Dogg Feat. John P. Kee - “Change the World” and Rich Tolbert Jr. - “I’m Alive”

In episode 4, I begin by explaining the phrase, “turning the tide” and then share the story of Daniel in the Bible. In life we will encounter obstacles. In those times, looking to the one who has the power to turn it all around in our favor along with faith, is key! Next in the candid segment “Karen’s Kommentary, I briefly talk about the Presidential race results. There’s a winner, a loser and his pawn.

In episode 3, I explain why I took a break that was completely unplanned and lasted for 3 months. Also, I introduce a new segment called Karen’s Kommentary! (Commentary with a “K”). In the new segment, I jump into the topic of Kanye West running for President and the recent news reported of what’s really going on behind the scenes of this scam. Before ending the episode, I make a huge announcement!! Be sure to tune in and subscribe on your chosen listening platform! Music used in episode: Kierra Sheard - “I choose you”

In episode 2, I explore topics that are layered, complex, and real. The episode starts off with the topic of Childhood trauma and how those experiences show up in adulthood. I explain in detail three Adult Attachment Disorders that relate to childhood trauma. From there, I explore different types of anxiety disorders and ways to effectively manage anxiety. Lastly, I candidly dive into another round of headlines/news stories that caught my attention with Quarantine Living Part 2. In part 1 (episode 1), I didn’t hold back. Part 2 is no different. — Music used in this episode - first song: “Never Be Defeated” by Rich Tolbert Jr / 2nd song: “I choose you” by Kierra Sheard Email: [email protected]

In episode 1 while turning the pages of the dictionary and bible, I share what Faith is and why it’s essential. In the segment Quarantine Living, I give my candid thoughts... from washing hands, to the use of disinfectant in a “new way.” Followed by that, I ask a (Quarantine Shopping) question in which I’ve been unable to find a solid answer... someone make it make sense!
