On today’s episode, we’re diving into some real conversations that challenge and inspire families to grow together!

💛 Forever Segment — Keep That Same Energy! Celebrating Father's Day, Mother's Day & Beyond

We’re unpacking the importance of consistency when it comes to celebrating all holidays not just Father’s Day & Mother's Day. How do we make sure our spouses feel valued year-round, not just on special occasions?

🌱 Roots & Bloom Segment — The Ultimatum: An Absent Father, A Present Mother & Their Child's Wedding

We’re tackling a tough question: Should non-active parents be invited to their child’s wedding? What’s best for the couple, the family, and the future? We explore the emotional layers and share thoughts on setting boundaries.

🎬 Lifestyle Segment — STRAW & The Tyler Perry Film Formula

We’re breaking down Netflix’s new film STRAW and reflecting on Tyler Perry’s track record. Is it time for something new in his storytelling? Let’s talk about representation, impact, and what’s working, or not in Black cinema today.

Today we’ll be touching on: 

  • The Great Attractor: Space Is A Crazy Place
  • Childhood Hobbies
  • Keep That Same Energy! Celebrating Father's Day, Mother's Day & Beyond
  • The Ultimatum: An Absent Father, A Present Mother & Their Child's Wedding
