What Do You Have To Say?

Growing up is a constant process of unlearning and relearning. We often spend our youth pushing back against the guidance of those raising us. Welcome back to the What Do You Have 2 Say? podcast. In Episode 35, Uriah and Phil explore the profound transition from rebellious independence to genuine understanding. We dive into the exact things your parents said that make sense now. We unpack the deep truth behind the old sayings we used to ignore. When our caregivers told us that a hard head makes a soft butt, they were warning us that repeating the same mistakes leads to a difficult path. When we were told to stay inside when the streetlights came on, it was a vital lesson in boundaries and safety.  This conversation goes far beyond simple nostalgia. Phil shares the empowerment found in the phrase "take what you have and make what you want". We discuss how staying ready means you never have to scramble to get ready, a lesson learned the hard way through repeated licensing and Praxis exams. Uriah reflects on his mother’s wisdom that whatever problem you have will follow you wherever you go, because you always take yourself with you. We also explore the danger of casting your pearls before swine and wasting your valuable time on unreceptive audiences. Ultimately, we must remember the wisdom of Dr. Maya Angelou. You cannot make your home in someone else’s applause.

When the music finally fades, we are left with the reality of a human life. We are left with the beautiful, deeply flawed, and profoundly complex nature of our existence. Welcome back to the What Do You Have 2 Say? podcast. In Episode 34, Uriah and Phil provide their raw, unfiltered reaction to the newly released Michael biopic. Why is the 2026 Michael Jackson biopic resonating so deeply with audiences? It moves far beyond the stage to explore the origin story of a global icon. We dive into the undeniable expertise of the cast. Jaafar Jackson does not merely mimic his uncle. He embodies the pure essence of Michael. Colman Domingo delivers a chilling, nuanced performance as Joseph Jackson. We recognize his character. We have seen that specific generational trauma and strict discipline in our own communities. Nia Long brings a quiet, reverberating strength to Katherine Jackson. KeiLyn Durrel Jones beautifully portrays Bill Bray, offering a necessary safe harbor when the world became too loud. This film forces us to examine the isolating weight of greatness. It holds up a mirror to family loyalty, the scars of our upbringing, and the courage it takes to finally speak up. Sometimes you have to step forward and do it afraid. Director Antoine Fuqua allowed the legendary music to breathe. He pulled original vocal stems using modern technology while honoring the authentic instrumentation. The result is pure magic.   #MichaelBiopic #ManInTheMirror #MichaelJackson #WDYH2S #WhatDoYouHave2Say #Podcast #MovieReaction #JaafarJackson #ColmanDomingo #GenerationalHealing    

The Power of No is one of the most profound tools we have for reclaiming our time, energy, and peace of mind. Welcome back to the What Do You Have 2 Say? podcast, where Uriah and Phil explore the complex realities of the human experience. In Episode 33, we dive into the deep discomfort and ultimate liberation that comes with setting firm boundaries. We often equate saying "yes" with being helpful or kind, but constantly overextending ourselves inevitably leads to burnout and resentment. We unpack the psychology of people-pleasing and discuss how a simple negative response can be a radical act of self-care. It is crucial to understand that declining a request is not a rejection of the person asking, but a necessary protection of your own mental bandwidth. We balance the literal steps of setting boundaries with the abstract feeling of finally standing up for your own well-being. If you struggle to set limits or feel guilty about protecting your space, hit play and join the conversation.   #ThePowerOfNo #SettingBoundaries #SelfCare #MentalHealth #WDYH2S #WhatDoYouHave2Say #Podcast #PeoplePleasing #ProtectYourEnergy #PersonalGrowth

Welcome back to the What Do You Have 2 Say? podcast with Uriah and Phil. In Episode 32, we explore a profoundly human experience: the people who influenced our lives without even knowing it.

In this episode, Uriah and Phillip discuss the common pitfalls of New Year's resolutions and the benefits of setting personal goals instead. They explore the importance of having a clear "why" behind your goals and how SMART goals can lead to sustainable change. The conversation is filled with personal anecdotes and practical advice for anyone looking to make meaningful changes in their life.   Takeaways: New Year's resolutions often fail due to a lack of specificity and personal relevance. Setting personal goals with a clear "why" can lead to more meaningful change. SMART goals—specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound—are key to success. External motivations often lead to unsustainable resolutions. Personal growth requires commitment and understanding of one's motivations. Community support can enhance goal achievement. Resolutions should be realistic and aligned with personal values. The journey to change begins with small, actionable steps. Understanding the origins of habits can prevent failure. Celebrating small wins is crucial for maintaining motivation.   Quotes: "Resolutions are wishes; goals are plans." "Find your why and let it guide you." "SMART goals are the blueprint for success." "Change is uncomfortable, but necessary." "Celebrate every small victory."     Chapters: 00:00: Introduction and New Year's Reflections 10:00: The Pitfalls of Resolutions 20:00: Setting Personal Goals 30:00: The Power of SMART Goals 40:00: Personal Stories and Practical Advice 50:00: Conclusion and Final Thoughts   Hashtags: #PersonalGoals #NewYear #SMARTGoals #Podcast #SustainableChange, #PersonalGrowth
