Deceit is Shallow, Purpose is Deep

Image
  Deceit is Shallow, Purpose is Deep https://www.spreaker.com/episode/deceit-is-shallow-purpose-is-deep--72004013 We are stepping into a massive convergence of energy today, Tribe. A Double Double: Nia (Purpose) in the week of Nia, enveloped in the Ujima cycle. There is an old Haitian proverb that says, "The hole of lies isn't deep; deceit is easily exposed." For too long, many of us have carried the burden of false meanings assigned to us by a society that doesn't have our best interests at heart. We hustle, we grind, and we carry weights that were never ours to hold, all because we bought into a shallow lie. But what happens when you decide that you are the sole author of your life's meaning? What happens when you expose the deceit? Call to Inaction: Stop letting external forces dictate your worth. A tree cannot grow while holding onto dead leaves. What false narrative about your identity can you drop today? Whose expectations do you need to scrape off to reve...

The Subtle but Powerful Shifts of Fasting: A Journey of Discipline and Transformation

Image
The Subtle but Powerful Shifts of Fasting: A Journey of Discipline and Transformation Fasting is often reduced to a conversation about weight loss, but my journey has been about so much more. From January 6 to January 27 , I undertook a fast that challenged not just my body, but also my mind and spirit. It wasn’t easy, but the process gave me clarity, self-discipline, and a deeper understanding of my body’s resilience. I want to share my experience—not just the numbers, but the way fasting reshaped my daily habits, my mental clarity, and my approach to health. Tracking the Physical Shifts 📉 Weight Loss During the Fast – I started at 197.8 lbs on January 6, and by January 27, I weighed 172.8 lbs . That’s over 25 pounds lost , but what mattered more was how my body felt . 💖 Blood Pressure Improvement – My BP started at 150/102 and by the end of my fast, I recorded 120/80 on January 21 and even 108/67 on January 27. My cardiovascular system was responding to the cleansing effects ...

From Victory to Momentum: My Next 21-Day Challenge

Image
Peace, Tribe! I just came out of a 21-day fast , and let me tell you—I’m on a high! My mind is clear, my body feels lighter, and my spirit is in alignment. I’m celebrating this victory because it’s a big deal. Discipline is no small feat, and when you walk through the fire and come out stronger, you need to recognize it. But here’s the thing—this high isn’t something I want to come down from. So, I’m stepping right into my next 21-day challenge . Why? Because momentum is a gift, and when the energy is flowing, you don’t stop—you build. This next challenge is about keeping that clarity, pushing myself further, and re-dedicating to the principles that keep me grounded in the Gye-Nyame Journey . This ain’t just about me, though. I’m sharing this because I want you to walk with me. Let’s grow together. Let’s elevate. Let me break it down for you. 21 Days of Re-Commitment These next 21 days are about getting back to the practices that define who we are as a tribe. Gye-Nyame isn’t just somet...

From Intermittent Fasting To Prolonged Fasting

Peace Fam: I am on day 3 of my detox fast. I am of course drinking "That Ambrosia", "That Ambrosia Vinagar", "That Ginseng Ambrosia", water, chloroxygen, coconut oil, red palm oil, and coconut water. I feel good, and I feel the process of renewal. I really don't know how long I am going to do this fast, but i am at the point where the fast begins to be all down hill. After 3 days of fasting I usually feel that I am able to go for another 3-4 days. My goal is to give my entire body time to reset, and to remember what it means to be hungry. I want to be able to harness that feeling and apply it to my videos, podcast, and writing. I have found that I am not hungry I just want to eat, and I had a few close calls. This is a true test of my Kujichagulia, so let's see how far I can take it. It is good to get out of our comfort zone, and eating has always been a comfort for me. Food has always been availiable to me. So to be around my kids and friends th...
