  https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-ujima-blueprint-blue--70095316 Is Your "Independence" Actually Holding You Back? We’ve been taught that the "Self-Made" path is the only way to the top. But for our community, that myth has often led to burnout, isolation, and a heavy sense of guilt when things don't go as planned. What if the key to your next level of Power and Joy isn't about doing more yourself, but about doing more together ? Today, we are breaking down the "Blue Blueprint" of Ujima. We’re talking about the shift from "I" to "We" and why taking responsibility for our neighbor is actually the ultimate act of self-care. There is a specific reason why we are focusing on Collective Work during this week of Faith, and it changes everything about how you approach your goals for 2026. If you've been feeling like you're carrying the weight of your world alone, you cannot afford to miss this episode. The solution is clos...

The Gina Gee project is a show that my daughter created. She saw me making video, and been watching YouTube​ and decided to do her own thing. For the last year she and her sister Ms. Shasha have been recording video using up all of my storage space, and figured that it was time to support her. Her first video is about making Cream of wheat. She in a dramatic fashion microwave her breakfast and teaches the viewer. I believe that when our children show interest and dedication to something we should support them. This might be a phase, but I am trying to use it as what our ancestors call a "lure to Mastery". I believe that our children need to be taught skills and in this video project she will learn, acting, interviewing, editing, and story structure and story telling. All these are transferable skills that can be used in pursuit of her life's purpose. Of course she will get a write-up from me on our site,  at least until she ( hopefully) starts writing her own accompa...
