Don't Be a Sheep
18/11/2020 Duration: 18minThis week on the podcast, Brandon is solo and talking about something that has been really heavy on his heart lately. He talks about not being a sheep. As we look around at the world today, it seems many of us act like sheep. We are looking for someone to lead us. We are happy to be followers of other people. Whether it is in the context of political parties either Republican or Democrat. Or wanting to fit in with our friend group, or wanting to keep up with what everyone else seems to be doing. Somewhere along the way we have lost our ability to think for ourselves. Don’t allow beliefs of political parties, friends, family, or marketers shape how you see the world. You are your own unique person. Always remember that. Y'all we are here for you! If you have no one else to talk to or just need someone to talk to about anything at all, we are a DM away.

Screw Picture Perfect
11/11/2020 Duration: 29minThis week on the podcast, we are asking you to say "screw you" to this so called picture perfect life.

The danger is in trying to put on a mask or play a character for everyone else, we can lose our true selves. But know this, picture perfect doesn't exist and trying to live up to it is not serving you. Y'all we are here for you!
