https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-power-of-your-own-name--70082035 Stop Living by Someone Else’s Definition Have you ever felt like you were playing a role written by someone who doesn't even know you? In a world that loves to label and categorize, there is a radical power in simply saying: "I will define myself." Today’s episode explores the deep indigo vibration of Kujichagulia. We’re moving past the "Blame, Shame, and Guilt" that often keeps us tethered to the past and stepping into a space where we name our own future. If you’ve been feeling a lack of direction or like your voice is being drowned out by the "shoulds" of society, this conversation is for you. We’re talking about more than just "willpower"—we’re talking about the ancestral right to self-sovereignty.

Peace FAM:
On this powerful day of Imani, I was hit by the thought of feelings. I know the power of feelings when they are properly directed, but I have been held hostage by them as well. Often times we find that how we feel about some task will freeze us up, and stop us from doing certain task. We have to learn to push past how we feel on some of our quest, because our feelings are helping to hold us back. It is human instinct to want to stay comfortable, we seek comfortable position, and we thrive in predictable situations. Even if the thriving is moving us on a long train ride to destruction. We hang on to old habits even though we can see that they are making us obeist, lazy, sick, miserable, and etc.. We have to be willing sometimes to jump over how we are feeling and get things accomplished. This is a tough process but often for us to make break throughs we have to do this.
Our feelings are a guidance system, not a ruler that should command our lives and limit our actions. Fear is something that we on GNJ have to learn to deal with and move inspite of. This is where we need to operate our faith (Imani) and move in it.We must realize that moving toward the better part of who we are is uncomfortable, unpredictable, and scary. once we embrace these facts we will be able to get off the couch and challenge ourselves.
Family I am speaking from experience, I don't want you to fall into the trap that so many of the great minds that I know are in right now. Waiting for the perfect time, or waiting for the stars to align just for you. I need you to notice that every morning during our toast we salute the moment. It is in this very moment that our power for change and fulfillment lie. Not in our past actions, or our future deeds. This moment is all that you ever have, and the illusions that are being presented to you about the past, and the future are a trap, to keep you in the net of the Matrix. So get your ass up and take that red pill, and dare to see the world through new eyes. Grab life by the throat through your actions, and deeds. Take it a minute at a time and build a habit of actions that will lead you to greatness.
Family i am glad that you chose to listen and watch us on GNJ, and I wish you Peace, Power, Joy, & 1hunidyears, but to get these you have to take action. Your life is waiting on you, please don't disappoint it.
We pour libations/ to connect with all that is/ and to cleanse our hearts/ I need to start this article by stating this information is based on my personal experience. I have been pouring libations for at least 20 years all over the country and personally. Libations for me is a process of remembering, and connecting or re-connecting to not only the Spirit but everything around us . When we pour libations we are opening ourselves as well as the group to the axe ' of the entire Universe . I first must admit that I do not belong to a group, sect or religious order. I am a lay man who have made a personal connection with the world, and the spirit. By pouring Libations we strengthen these relationship. So let me define a few things first so that we can be on the same page. Libations - the process of pouring or giving a sacrifice to form a connection with this world and the spiritual realm. Spirituality - the state of establishing and maintaining relationships Axe...
The Art of Adaptation: Unveiling the Wisdom of The Bat and The Weasels “It is wise to turn circumstances to good account.” — Aesop In the world of fables, we often find animals acting out the deepest parts of our humanity. These creatures, symbols of instinct and survival, carry lessons older than time itself. The Bat and The Weasels , retold from the mind of Aesop and reimagined through the lens of Gye-Nyame Journey, isn’t just a tale for children—it’s a guide for those grown folks who still seek mastery. When the World Has You Cornered Here’s the setup: A bat falls to the ground and is caught by a weasel. The weasel hates birds. So the bat, slick with the tongue, says, “I’m not a bird—I’m a mouse.” The weasel lets him go. Later, the same bat falls again. This time, a different weasel catches him. But this weasel hates mice. So what does the bat say? “I’m not a mouse—I’m a bird.” And he gets set free again. Now, you could say the bat was being dishonest. But hold on. Let’s go de...
The Three R’s of Relationships: Building Bonds on Respect, Responsibility, and Reciprocity In every relationship—whether personal, professional, or communal—there are foundational pillars that support and strengthen our connections. I call these the three R’s: respect , responsibility , and reciprocity . They’re the legs of the stool upon which strong, enduring relationships rest. Respect: Seeing Beyond the Surface True respect goes far beyond superficial acknowledgments. It’s about looking deeper—truly seeing the person beyond what’s on the surface. This means engaging with others on a level that honors their stories, experiences, and inherent worth. Respect isn’t just a courtesy; it’s a commitment to understanding the person in front of you, appreciating their struggles and triumphs, and valuing their unique perspective. Responsibility: Owning Your Part in the Relationship Responsibility in a relationship isn’t just about meeting obligations—it’s about owning your role in nurturing a...
