Taking Accountability For Your Life

The Transition from the “Traditional Woman” to the “Modern Woman”. What does it mean...This week on Kocktails & Konversations we have Sister Golda X (High_heals_111) in the studio with Yusuf A. Muhammad and Dark Shining Light we discuss the Ideal of the "Traditional Woman" vs the "Modern Woman". Who is defining these terms? What was wrong with the "Traditional Woman" that the "Modern Woman" had to redefine her? Is there an agenda being pushed or is this for the betterment of society? Is a woman who is covered being constrained vs one who wears fewer clothes, which one is truly free to be themselves?

On this episode of @kocktailsAndKonversations we (@yamscreation and @darkshininglight) discuss how God Is Always With You, But Are You With Him… This became a reflective conversation through our lives and the lessons we have had as maturing individuals in this world. We go over the benefits of prayer when done right and how this can help us discover what we have been doing wrong for so long. (Asking God for what WE want vs asking Him what HE wants us to do with our lives…) When you start to mature you begin to listen more and look for the hand of God in all that you are doing, too often we are looking for our own version that we want to work for. Most importantly we discuss a Woman of God and how when she is in tune with God, she is the walking display of His Majesty. Through her, we understand that if we are to Pray not to worry, and if we are going to worry not to pray.

What happens after the Regret or the failure? That "Glow Up" is developed in the person.Two sides to the coin after a #breakup that’s never discussed. #TheRegret of the person who broke up with you because of the #GlowUp or transformation one takes on. (She gets hurt then begins to work out, or go get another degree, starts that million-dollar business, etc.) When you realize that the #authenticversion of you has to become on lock because #notEveryoneDeserves access to you. We discuss the 🤌🏾#jealousnature that we as males come into after seeing the glow-up and what we need to understand in #movingon. And how looking at the past is like driving looking in a rearview mirror, you're missing out on all the good things that are still coming to you.
