Chris Brown and recent arrest....hiding in rehab!

I have been waiting to blog about Chris Brown's recent arrest for assault and his sad attempt to avoid prison by entering a rehab facility. The reality is that Chris Brown is a very troubled person with more than an anger problem. It is obvious that he is a very abusive person and has problems with power and control. Being abusive is a learned behavior so he learned it from someone close to him. The only way to unlearn it is if you seek intensive behavioral therapy and be educated on power and control. Being abusive is like riding a bike once you learn how you will never forget it. Some abusers that seek treatment do so because they are forced to by the justice system. The only success they will have is learning how to MAYBE control outbursts or not have so many of them. Chris Brown is not being held accountable which is another reason abusers continue to abuse. He mocks us by not completing community service from his incident with Rihanna and violates probation by assaulting someone else. If I was his mother, I would be ashamed and disgusted, not supportive. Chris Brown needs to man-up, accept responsibility and not hide in rehab, which by the way will not work unless they are addressing power and control education. As a consumer, I will not buy his music, listen to it or promote it. I have seen too many young men like him as an advocate and the damage they do to women and others is far worse than the beat down they get. Chris Brown is a vile person and he is what we call in advocacy, a lost cause. Read about his arrest....

How to be the best version of yourself?

Have you ever asked yourself: Am I living my life to the fullest? Are there things about myself or life that I would like to change? These are all self-evaluation questions that are worthy of your attention; especially if you are feeling lack or uncertainty in your life. I definitely asked these questions a few years ago because, I was feeling very unfulfilled in my life and struggling to understand my place. Many times, as human beings living in the moment and as a coping mechanism, we put on a mask and pretend to be okay but hurting on the inside. Life requires balance and recognizing an imbalance is the beginning to discovering your full potential. Being the best version of yourself means being the authentic, "YOU." A trick to understanding your authentic self requires honesty about the things you are currently doing in your life that are creating unhappiness, uncertainty, negativity etc. You have to reflect on your shadow side (negative characteristics about your persona...

The performance of being "nice"..

Today, I am going to give a brief tutorial on being "kind" vs. being "nice". I want people to consider the fact that being "nice" isn't good enough. I grew up with knowing there is a huge difference between nice and being a kind person. Being, "Kind" is the ideal way to conduct yourself. To me, kindness is about connections; making positive connections with people with the idea of being genuine and thoughtful. Kindness involves vulnerability. However, some people have trouble with authenticity and being vulnerable. We live in a society of immediate gratification, fake people, insecurity, and false expectations and desires. People choose to align with what is easy instead of what is right! For this reason, people choose to be, "nice". Being "nice" is not enough. There is complexity to these terms. So let's talk about the differences between being, "nice" and "kind". Nice is a social mask that people...

Exploiting Wellness: Exposing the wellness industry frauds.

*This post was written 6 months ago* The global wellness market is valued at over 4.75 trillion (wellnesscreative.com 2022 statistics). There is a demand for self-improvement, homeopathic or alternative ways to achieve better health or mindset. Where there is a need, there are always people waiting to exploit people's desperation to look and feel better. I believe that most people have great intentions to help others achieve their highest potential; however, we have to be mindful of those that don't. I am not a consumer advocate but, if a sell is too good to be true and people promise you the world and total transformation, I'd run for the hills. That’s a huge indication of fraud. What concerns me about the wellness industry is that some of these organizations are cult-like and require you to be a part of a controlling following. At this point, your chances of becoming victimized either financially, emotionally, or physically becomes a given. My dear friend, who works for ...
