Protect your Seed

  Protect your Seed https://www.spreaker.com/episode/protect-your-seed--71106863 Have you ever stopped to realize that your need for right-now comfort might be the exact thing destroying your future? The Fulani people of the Sahel have a saying: "Mo nyaami aawdi mum, nyaami janngo mum" —He who eats his seed, eats his tomorrow. In our community, we are constantly pushed to consume our potential. We are bombarded by a society that tells us to numb the pain, buy the illusion, and seek the instant fix. But what if real Faith (Imani) isn't about blind hope or grinding harder? What if faith is simply what’s left when you scrape off the desperate need to control everything? The victory is already there, but you can't see it if your vision is blocked by the heavy baggage of immediate gratification. In today's podcast, we talk about shedding the illusions that make us eat our own seeds... Call to Inaction: “To hold the water, one must first empty the cup.” Stop trying to ...

Stop Letting Others Write Your Story

  Stop Letting Others Write Your Story https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-power-to-name--70223572 Who told you who you were? Was it a system that benefits from your confusion, or was it the voice of your ancestors whispered in your quietest moments? Today marks a powerful shift in the calendar as we enter the Kujichagulia cycle. In this episode, we tackle the tension between who the world wants you to be and who you were created to become. The year 2026 is the Year of Ujima, but collective work is impossible if the individuals involved are operating on "borrowed" identities. We explore why your self-determination is the secret ingredient to our community's success and how to reclaim the power of your own name. If you’ve been feeling out of alignment, the answer isn't "out there"—it's in the way you define your "here."

Stop Living by Someone Else’s Definition

  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.

You Are The Greatest

Image
You are the Greatest/ You just got lost in a maze/ That you created/ The purpose of me writing for the Journey is to add value to  the life of those that read my articles. My goal is to uplift, enlighten as well as to  learn from those who are willing to share. This is a passion for me that I struggle with, but yet it has opened so many doors. I have learned so much over the years that sometimes it rushes out or through me so fast that I can't keep up. I need you to realize that you exist in a paradox. On one hand you are the greatest of creations, and on the other you are less than a speck in the total scheme of things in this universe. When we take time to look at where we are in life we can become overwhelmed. Because we have been placed in a place of utter confusion. These paradoxes we live with can sometimes exhaust those of us who were bold enough to begin walking this Journey. My passion is to help you in this walk. To help solve some of the confusion and to help yo...

The Legend of the Leaf

Image
 This is for those that are looking for a challenge. This legend was created during the UGRR days and has persisted throughout all of the incarnations of the family. It was designed to help the members stay in shape, and also develop their focus. In the early days the family would go to the woods at least 4 times a year and walk through them. We would admire the changing quality of nature. The four times would be during the beginning of each season. We would walk until we hit our tribal center at the banks of Nile (OlentanGYE river). On the way back this exercise was developed. This particular exercise was done best in fall. During this seasons leaves fall at random and if you paid attention you would be able to catch one. In this simple exercise you would have to be open and aware of your environment. As a leaf started falling toward the earth you would to have to focus on the one you were going to catch and pursue it. Don't be fooled catching a falling leaf is not as eas...
