Sunday, Jan 16th was Religious Freedom Day and I honestly felt compelled to discuss religious freedom and how it shows up in my life. My hope is that, while I rambled a lot in this episode, that you find the underlying message of figuring out your own religious practice for you. Not for family, not for religious salvation but emphatically for you. As always, be well loves. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/see-monique-speaks/message

First of All, why am I this way lol... But I'm obsessed with serial killers so I'm not shocked this was something I put in my jar.

Decided to wrap up the things I've been discussing on various platforms this week in a little bow as this is my last episode of the year. It's very simple. Allow children to be innocent and curious. Raising them is not an opportunity to right your parents wrong. In that same breath, heal your inner child. Take care of you. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/see-monique-speaks/message

Quick bonus episode...funny enough when I started recording I had not even realized that today was Kujichagulia in the week of Kwanzaa. How incredibly on brand of me to bring it full-circle and recognize the parallels of choosing rest last week and the principle of behind Kujichagulia! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/see-monique-speaks/message
