Casa Amor Recoupling: Don’t Let Your Insecurities Get the Best of You Love Island Season 8 Episode 21 Listen below now or on your favorite streaming platform ! So I am still being held hostage on  Love Island by my daughter. Honestly, I am not hooked like everyone else. Before I dive into the recoupling drama, I really was annoyed with Titi and Parmida because the girls were trying to be so respectful to them and not bring them into the drama, but they felt compelled to jump in and say something. You spent three days with this man, and now you think you have a right to save them from the wrath they deserved. Titi especially got on my last good nerve. So let’s get into the recoupling drama. And please, for the love of everything holy, bring back Carl. Couples Aniya (23)- Single. Aniya is now single, and yes, she was a dummy. Honestly, I really thought she was going to choose Carl. I really wanted her to choose Carl. I am really upset she didn’t choose Carl. I thought she was tired...

Love Island Lessons: Just Tell the Truth Season 8 Episode 11 My daughter has me watching Love Island, and Season 8 is my first time watching more than one episode. I watched one episode from season seven but did not let myself get sucked in. She does tell me that season 6 is the absolute best one so far, and I should go back and watch it, which I just may. But let’s talk about season episode 11 of season 8.  Couples Aniya (23) and KC (23)- I was rooting for them, and then KC is being a little shady. He can say he is feeling Aniya, but is intrigued by Sol and would like to get to know her rather than telling Aniya that he is not interested at all. It’s reminiscent of what Sincere did, though not as bad. It is apparent that KC is actually interested because he has attempted to shoot his shot on two occasions. He wanted to test the waters and see what Sol would say. I am not mad at her response. She basically said he would never know if he doesn’t shoot his shot, and she is not wrong...

Your Peace Is More Important Than Your Response You don’t always need to react You’re learning that not everything needs an immediate reaction—especially not from you.  Listen below now or on your favorite streaming platform ! It is alright to let things go. Sometimes, some people may feel the need to have a say, or win an argument or be right or have an opinion. In this current time, when everyone has a social media page, a podcast mic, a camera phone or access to an audience, it can be tempting to lend a voice to what goes on around you. Some are compelled to do it. Just because we have access does not mean that we should sound off. Likewise, just because we can react does not mean that we should.  I like to work on this concept particularly in altercations or disagreements, especially when one side of the party is getting significantly worked up, whether it is by displaying anger or strong emotions. We have to ask ourselves what the end goal of this argument is. When I wa...
