The water of the money up looking.

Speaker 6 (01:55):
Come come on you.

Speaker 10 (02:01):
Uh huh, I sure will A good morning everybody. You
are listening to the voice, Come on now, digny if
you will. One and only Steve Harvey got a radio show,
you know, one of the things about being successful. And
I was sharing this just the other day with a

(02:21):
young man and he asked me. He said, hey, man,
I just don't see how you get up that early
in the morning. I just don't see how, man, it
would kill me to get up this early in the morning. Well,
I sat down and I'm listening to it because it's
just a thousand times I've heard it, you know, And
my life is, you know, not too different from a lot.

Speaker 4 (02:44):
Of people's lives.

Speaker 10 (02:44):
There's a lot of people out there that rise early.
And I just sit there, man, because I mean, first
of all, I'm grateful to be able to have a job.
I'm so grateful to be able to do one and
several that I happen to enjoy doing. I mean, you
know it's work and it's difficult at times, but I mean,
you know I wanted this.

Speaker 4 (03:04):
You know you got it.

Speaker 10 (03:05):
You know you can't ask God for nothing any give
it to you and be mad that you got it.
Don't make no sense. You know the problem with asking
God for stuff is a lot of times we ask
it for stuff we don't really know what all it encompasses,
what all it really is. And I ask for this
now along the way, I've gotten far more than I
asked for. I want you to do. Understand that, and

(03:26):
you know that's His grace at work in my life.
But I get up early and I go to work
because I do understand something that it is not walking
up to you. Nobody walks up to people normally and
just hand them checks all the time, and enough checks
to sustain your life, and not only sustain it, but
to have a life.

Speaker 4 (03:45):
That where you could enjoy and do some of the
things you want to do.

Speaker 10 (03:49):
I don't know the person that walks out hands out
that money just to be doing it and then with
a lifestyle though, where you can you know, give your
kids a Christmas, you know, take your f I'm on vacation,
you know, a year.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
Once a year.

Speaker 10 (04:02):
I don't know nobody passing out to kind of money.
So I get up early in the morning.

Speaker 4 (04:06):
I get at it.

Speaker 10 (04:07):
I was taught to get up early in the morning
by my father because my father says, ain't nothing gonna
come to you while.

Speaker 4 (04:15):
You laying there.

Speaker 10 (04:16):
And you know what, It's just true, man, it's just
a little common sense. Little old people smart man, they've
been around a long time.

Speaker 4 (04:22):
You don't get old.

Speaker 10 (04:23):
You know, some old foods out there, but you know
you don't have to deal with them. But old people
are pretty smart, man. They've learned a lot along the way.
And waking up early and getting at it is one
of them things. And I ask everybody man to think
about this scenario of your life. If a day has
twenty four hours in it, and let's just say you
choose to sleep eight of those hours because they tell

(04:46):
you you need eight hours sleep, so you sleep eight hours,
that's a third of your life asleep. Already, just a
third of your life is spent asleep. If you gonna
do eight hours a day. Now, let's say you have
a job that you work eight hours and it is
not the job of your dreams. It's not your dream career,

(05:06):
your dream profession. It's just the one you took, like
all of us, to get it started. And then, like
all of us, some of us end up having this
state that because we've created these bills, because we checked
and check, so we can't leave it because we'll lose
what we've worked for. So let's just say you got
a job that you go to work to for eight hours.
That's another third of your life. That's two thirds of

(05:28):
your life. Feel how you want to feel about your
two thirds? Well, I like sleep. Okay, cool, there's a
scripture about that too. But now you spent two thirds
of your life one on a job you don't care
for if you're not happy that, or one that just
pays the bills, and it's not your dream job or career.
Another third of your life is sleep. Oh now, let's
hold on. Let's talk about the one hour of preparation
that it may take to get to the job. That's

(05:50):
seventeen hours. Let's say your drive time. Let's say getting
to your job. For the average person is anywhere between
thirty to an hour. That's an average of what it
takes to average person. Now some people out there hustling
way harder than that. But let's just say your average
is an hour getting to work. You add another hour
to that going to work. You've now spent eighteen hours

(06:14):
out of the twenty four doing something that's either nonproductive,
you're not happy with, you're not pleased about. It is
not your dream job, it's not your dream profession. And
rest of the time you sleep. Eighteen hours. Now you
got to come from the job, so let's just say
it's another hour to get back home. That's nineteen hours.
Nineteen hours out of a twenty four hour day. You

(06:34):
now have five hours left in your day. Oh, you
watch TV two hours a day. Okay, excuse me. Let's
put now you put two hours of TV on that
you've just spent twenty one. You now have three hours
in the day to do something super productive for the
development of yourself and the future of your family and

(06:55):
your future as a person and what you can provide
for your family. Uh Oh, I need to chill, I
need to smoke one. Uh Oh, I needed some time
at happy. I seem like all I do is dry
to work and go to work. I'm gonna go out
with the fellas drink one. Okay, Let's say you spend

(07:17):
two hours at Happy Ill nobody go to a Happy
Hours yet for a hour. Let's say you spend two
hours at Happy I'll all smoke in all some video games.

Speaker 4 (07:24):
Let's do that.

Speaker 10 (07:25):
Is there two hours of smoking, chilling video games. That's
twenty three hours of your day gone. Don't you see
how your day slips away from you? So why would
you get up early? You get up early to get
a jump. You get up early to produce, to plan,
to become productive. You get up early in the morning

(07:46):
to care about every single minute of your day. You
wake up early in the morning because you have a plan,
a mission, You have something you want to accomplish. The
earlier you get up, the more time you have just
for you to devote to your plan, and you map
it out, you make them, send some emails, whatever it
is you need to do to get your dream under way.

Speaker 4 (08:07):
Then you go get ready. Then you get in your
car and go to work.

Speaker 10 (08:11):
Then you go to your job, but on your job,
instead of sitting at your lunch break messing around with
a bunch of people laughing and talking about nothing, playing dominoes.
Why don't you take that hour to do some more research,
to send out some more emails, to put some feelings
out there, to see what can get you in the
place that you want to be. Then when you get off,
instead of driving straight home, why don't you go somewhere

(08:33):
in a meeting, you take in a session with some
people in a positive mental state, group of people that
get together. Network for business, not drink at happy hour.
I said, network for business. So after you've done that
eight that you don't really care for on a job,
you spend some more time pursuing, looking into researching, working towards,
sending out some more applications, putting in some more time

(08:57):
to build your new app discussing some more new working ideas. Okay,
that's your happy hour. Then when you go home, instead
of chilling, drinking one, having a cold one, smoking one,
playing a video game, why don't you take that two
hours and devote that to that business idea. You got
to that family that you talk about, You really want

(09:17):
spend some time with your children, put something into them.

Speaker 4 (09:20):
Do something.

Speaker 10 (09:21):
Man, when all these precious hours that God gives all
of us in the course of a day, take advantage
of every minute of that. No human being has more
than twenty four hours a day, including myself. But if
you care about every single minute of that day, you'll
be amazed at how much you could get accomplished in

(09:42):
a twenty four hour day. But you can't get none
of that happening because you sleep, and you chilling and
you smoking. Okay, what has that done for you, your
family or your future? Care about every minute of your day.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 10 (10:04):
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, gather around your radio.
That is so old school story of day. Today's story
is a little turning. Remember those stories, guys back in
the day when we're not gonna do one today, because
now this is the new Steve Harvey Morning Show, rocking
and rolling, giving God the credit and the glory. Hoping

(10:26):
that there's rain soon so my lakes can rise, so
I can get on back out here, catch some catfish
for them Friday fish fies. We got things to do.
We need weather to be cracking. But right now rain
and Georgia show. He is lacking all these hot days
y'all may be raising your hand, but you're gonna need
some of this clarity up. Get some of this polling

(10:48):
out your glands. We got things to do this morning.
This is how we doing the show. Steve Harvey should
have been a rapper. I think, Oh that's a show.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the rise. It's even Harvy
Marters show showing the Strawberry Collin for real, Mississippi Monica Junior,
the comeback kid, and the legend that is nephew Tommy Junior.

Speaker 4 (11:11):
Yeah, uh, what is it today?

Speaker 3 (11:14):
Man?

Speaker 6 (11:14):
You know you are?

Speaker 2 (11:15):
You know you're crazy.

Speaker 4 (11:16):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (11:18):
If you had not been a radio person, what job?

Speaker 3 (11:21):
You know? You can't do?

Speaker 4 (11:23):
Full time criminal? I can't do that, though, I can't.

Speaker 1 (11:27):
I can not full time.

Speaker 10 (11:31):
I cannot be a full time criminal. If you're an
occasional criminal, you can stay out of jail, but if
you full time, you're going, You're going, You're going.

Speaker 4 (11:42):
You know, I've done some activities in my life I
shouldn't have done. I regretted.

Speaker 10 (11:45):
I look back on when I was young, I made
some ill fated decisions. But full time criminal I cannot do.
It's just such a waste of constructive thinking. Most guys
that are criminals are really man. Are some bright people,
they really are, man, they just chose to take their
brightness down the wrong path.

Speaker 4 (12:08):
They used it for the wrong purposes, and it cost you.

Speaker 11 (12:12):
Man.

Speaker 10 (12:13):
I just wish we'd be more aware that young brothers
out there. Man, you gifted and all of that. Man,
put it to good use. Man, find the right path. Man,
get on that path and turn yourself into something you know, man,
so much easier and so much more rewarded. And you
remain available for your families, your girls, and your children.

(12:36):
And that's critical, man, that's a big part of it.
I can't tell you how many men I've met that's
locked away who wish they could just hug their child,
who wish they could let them know a better path,
who wish they hadn't made the decision. One bad decision man,
could ruin your life.

Speaker 6 (12:54):
Now.

Speaker 10 (12:54):
I don't know how I got on that tangent, but
I just did. So this is how we're doing it today. Yes,
I hope these criminals have learned today so that that
that didn't move a needle at all, you know, No,
I ain't saying nothing profound. I wish you know my

(13:16):
boys camps coming up. I'll do the best I can

Speaker 9 (23:12):
Nine?

Speaker 1 (23:13):
Man, his credit card is maxed out.

Speaker 10 (23:17):
Here's what I've heard. M hm, And let me let
me take you just on a short trip. They accuse
women all the time of being gold diggers. Yeah, let
me make this statement that I heard all women, All
women are expensive. All women are expensive. You have to

(23:37):
find the woman that you can afford.

Speaker 4 (23:41):
M okay, that's that's that's what you got to do.
Though this one is too high for you. Bro.

Speaker 10 (23:50):
This you done got into a situation and you ain't
thinking all the way through. It has to be a
good hotel on the other side of town, exactly. It
can't be close to her house, you understand, because she married.
Now you want all these extras and benefits, but now
you don't want it to cost you nothing.

Speaker 4 (24:11):
How you think this word, that's not how this works.

Speaker 11 (24:14):
Man.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
It all costs.

Speaker 10 (24:17):
You're gonna wine and dine it. You're gonna buy it
at a brothel or you gonna you are?

Speaker 1 (24:23):
Yeah, you heard them.

Speaker 4 (24:27):
It's just trying to put it in there.

Speaker 10 (24:29):
I don't want to say street walker, so I'm trying
to be, you know, more politically correct.

Speaker 4 (24:34):
A you're gonna pay for a dog the cost?

Speaker 1 (24:37):
Let me ask you this.

Speaker 12 (24:38):
Having said all of that, Steve a Celo, we're in
these times today. You know where men ask women what
do you bring to the table? Have you ever asked
a woman to pay sometime?

Speaker 1 (24:50):
Have you ever done that?

Speaker 3 (24:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 10 (24:53):
I don't know a man, and that's nothing to brag about.
It's just, you know, I don't want to. I think
it is, but I've just never I do what I
can afford to do.

Speaker 4 (25:04):
That way. I ain't dependent on whether it's up to
you or not.

Speaker 11 (25:07):
Okay, this should be fifty fifty, but with somebody, we
got to work together.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
Anybody cared that she's married, I do, of course, it's
not available.

Technically, I think she's madeable.

Speaker 1 (25:23):
Yeah, she's made herself available. Yeah this is crazy. Yeah
all right, and nephew, we heard what you said.

Speaker 4 (25:32):

Eileen and Brandington because he said fifty to fifty Eileen
and Brandington. Eileen says, I'm sixty six years old and
I just got remarried. My two grown children live with me,
and my husband lives about five minutes from us at
our ages. Living together is not a priority. How do

(25:56):

Speaker 4 (26:00):

Speaker 1 (38:04):
Steve. You can call us and leave a message. You
just might hear your call on the air. Here we go.
This is a call named Ralph Steve who left something
for you.

Speaker 7 (38:12):
Hey, Steve, this is Ralph Bryan from Suffer Springs, Texas. Yeah,
I totally agree with you on your points about our
so called president and that if Obama had done half
the things that he done done. You know, they'd have
been talking about impeaching him, and they probably would have
stormed the White House trying to get him out, you know.

(38:35):
So it's pathetic that half our country thinks that what
he's doing is okay. I mean, everything is in the
negative right now, you know, being in a war, you know, inflation,
you know, the price of gas, groceries, everything done went up,
you know, and they trying to say this is a
good thing. Well, he just hadn't gone up. My paycheck

(38:58):
hadn't gone up any my bills have. But it's just
sad that, you know, our country is turning into this.
But you know what I'm afraid of is that he's
gonna try to run for another term, you know, even
though they done made it a point that two terms
is all you can get. You know, he thinks he

(39:19):
wants to be a dictator. You know, he's gonna probably
try to get a statue made of himself outside the
White House.

Speaker 6 (39:26):
Who knows.

Speaker 7 (39:28):
Y'all have a blessed ay, Junior, the ladies, nephew, Tommy.
All I gotta do is just say one thing, and
that's how about them cowboy?

Speaker 4 (39:41):
Well, how about the cowboy?

Speaker 11 (39:43):
You were doing.

Speaker 4 (39:43):
All right, what did it come from? Man? Come on,
they all suffered enough, Well, how about him? But you
know he made some valid burns.

Speaker 10 (39:59):
Personally appreciate him leaving his name even though it wasn't
a critical email, which is what he talks about. But
you know, I agree with what he said. He agrees
with what we've been saying. And it is a tragedy
that our country has come to this, that we've put
we've we've set aside our our our definition of decency.

Speaker 4 (40:27):
And respectability, and we've.

Speaker 10 (40:29):
Changed it for him so we can continue to say
he's our president. So you changed what decency is, what
is anti corrupt? He's corrupt and he's indecent, and he's
a convicted Fela. And that don't mean nothing to y'all. Man,
this country is sick. If you don't think this country

(40:51):
is sick, it's cause you're you wanted to sick people.

Speaker 4 (40:54):
This is crazy, man, this.

Speaker 10 (40:56):
Is absolute insanity we're doing in this country. And I'm
ashamed of it. I'm I'm appalled by and I'm embarrassed.
All right, all right, coming up nowhere.

Speaker 4 (41:10):
Without him talking about us in the.

Speaker 12 (41:12):
World thirty four minutes after, we'll take more calls eight
seven seven twenty nine, Steve.

Speaker 1 (41:17):
Right after this, what is wrong with your country? You're
listening Steve Harvey Morning shows.

Speaker 12 (41:27):
All right, Steve, So we're checking your voicemail at eight
seven seven twenty nine. Steve, you can call and leave
us a message and you just might hear your call
on the air. Let's go to Tray Vaughn from Texas.

Speaker 16 (41:38):
Hey, Steve, my name is trayvaugh I live in Texas
right now. I'm thirty three years old. I just saw
one of your videos on Facebook.

Speaker 6 (41:47):
Birthday.

Speaker 16 (41:48):
They had named the street after you, and you spoke
to your brother, I'm watching me on your face, man,
and I started.

Speaker 4 (41:55):
To tear up.

Speaker 16 (41:56):
And you know, I try to be positive in life. No,
I'm behind the individual. I'm trying to accomplish great thanks
a lot of people.

Speaker 2 (42:05):
That's what I think I'm put on this earth.

Speaker 1 (42:06):
To do to help people.

Speaker 16 (42:07):
And I was watching that video and I just felt
impelled to call you because I see I've been following
you for a long time, ever since Kings Economy. So
I love everything you do, the way you help people,
your passion for helping people and especially boys. But I've
I've watched people drag you through the mud online. I've
heard it in person. I've heard people talk about you

(42:28):
like they know you and you then you know, the
white washed and left black people behind, and I just
I see the exact opposite.

Speaker 4 (42:36):
So I just wanted to give you your flowers.

Speaker 11 (42:38):
My man.

Speaker 4 (42:39):
I love you.

Speaker 16 (42:39):
I appreciate everything you do. I think he was a
real dude. I hope to hear from you one day
so I get some guidance.

Speaker 1 (42:45):
On my path.

Speaker 16 (42:46):
But I just wanted to let you know. Man, you
are seeing and you're appreciated. Yeah, keep doing what you're doing, man,
love you appreciate it.

Speaker 4 (42:55):
Wow, that's cool. Here to thank you.

Speaker 10 (42:57):
Hey, you know, first of all them accolades you saw me,
I got it sixty just hanging there. Man, you got
you gotta just stay the course. You gotta keep your
foot on the gas pedal, keep the you gotta keep
the grind up.

Speaker 7 (43:12):
Uh.

Speaker 10 (43:12):
Every everything that due you will come your way. God
will ensure that. I appreciate your defense of me. Uh,
it's so I can't say it. Don't bother me when
I hear people talking about me that don't even know me,
because if you know me, you will shut your mouth
and you would get on the other side.

Speaker 4 (43:33):
But it just comes with it. Man.

Speaker 10 (43:35):
This people ain't got nothing to do. You know, poor
people talk about other people rich. That's the that's just
understand that poor people talk about other people. And you
don't have to be just poor financially, you can be
poor mentally. Poor people talk about other people, and so

(43:56):
I've learned that in my life. So I appreciate the
call man, and I'm gonna just continue to do my
thing and let the nay sayers be where they're at.
Feel how you want to feel. But at the end,
when my life is over, you will not be the
judge of me. And you ain't the judge of me
now because I don't even I don't give you permission
to judge me. So whatever you said, it's just it

(44:17):
makes no sense to me.

Speaker 1 (44:19):
Okay, I'm fine.

Speaker 3 (44:26):
All right.

Speaker 1 (44:27):
We have another call from Pam.

Speaker 9 (44:29):
Good morning, everybody.

Speaker 17 (44:30):
This is Pam from Texas. I just wanted to know
what do y'all think about Trump posting a picture of
himself like he's Jesus. You know, we was taught to
never say you hate anybody, but I hate that man.
But anyway, y'all have a good day.

Speaker 9 (44:45):
I love y'all.

Speaker 1 (44:50):
At her, boy, she was about to business.

Speaker 10 (44:53):
You know.

Speaker 4 (44:55):
What's crazy this picture?

Speaker 10 (44:59):
And he tried to say it was posted because it's
him as a doctor and he's helping people, because you
can see it's a Red Cross person in there, and
he does help people. If you want to be depicted
as a doctor, then put a white jacket on, put
a stethoscope around your neck, and then put a medic

(45:22):
badge on it. Put some ink pans in your pocket.
That robe that you came on with that halo light
behind you was to exemplify that you are a god,
that you are christ Like. That's exactly what you did.
And for you to undress it another way, you know,
that's the analogy. This man peas on us but tells

(45:46):
us it's raining, and I'll just be looking at him like.

Speaker 4 (45:49):
Man, you got to be kidding. You can't think we're
that stupid.

Speaker 12 (56:37):
We could be reading your letter live on the air,
just like we're going to read this one right here,
right now. You never know it could be yours.

Speaker 11 (56:44):
It could be yours. Buckle up and hold on tight.
We got it for you here. It is strawberry, a lot.

Speaker 12 (56:49):
Of all right, nephew, thank you. Subject. I need him
to toughen up, Dear Stephen Shirley. I met a great
man at my therapist's office. He was coming out of
his session and we locked eyes. It was an instant attraction.
My therapist vouched for him and said he's got a
lot going for him and he desperately wants a wife.

(57:10):
I was seeing the therapist to work through some childhood trauma,
and my man was there to get over a bad breakup.
His ex fiance mistreated him and cheated on him. He
said she's always screamed at him for no reason and
stole money from him. I assured him that none of
that would happen with me. After a few months, I
could see how much his past affects him. Dating him

(57:33):
is different because if we have a disagreement, he'll separate
from me for days so I can cool off.

Speaker 1 (57:38):
It is never that serious with me.

Speaker 12 (57:41):
I understand he's had a traumatic past, but he's forty
two years old and I need him to toughen up.
He runs a division of a warehouse, so I know
he can be a boss. I hate that he agrees
with whatever I say. He said that he does that
so that I won't be upset with him. I like
to have healthy today baits every now and then. I

(58:01):
could tell him that we're having fish covered in brown
gravy for dinner, and he'll say, I'll try it if
that's what you want to eat. It's so aggravating, and
I wish he'd have an opinion. I don't want to
make all of the decisions. I'm also the aggressor in
the bedroom, and I had to initiate sex for our
first time. He handles his business in the bedroom after

(58:23):
I get things started. When you see us out together,
we look like a normal couple. But he's unlike any
other man I've dated. Is he the passive type of
guy that lets his frustration build up and then explodes.
How do I deal with him? How do how do
you deal with him? As your question, my question is

(58:44):
why are you dealing with him? You wanted the man,
you got the man, and now you're trying to change
the man. You knew what was up with him from
your therapist, and you dated him anyway, and now you're
complaining you have issues too. I think that you both
jumped gun, meaning I think you got into this relationship
too fast. You weren't finished working on yourselves individually.

Speaker 4 (59:06):
Yet.

Speaker 1 (59:07):
You are two broken people.

Speaker 12 (59:09):
You're two broken people, You from whatever childhood trauma you
have and him from his relationship with his last girlfriend
who cheated on him and yelled at him. He's still traumatized.
Now the two of you are trying to have something together.
It's not working because you're not ready yet. There's more
work to be done here. I say, continue your private

(59:32):
therapy sessions. And then I say, if you guys are
trying to do something together, you need some couples therapy too.

Speaker 10 (59:39):
Steve, you didn't think when you met him at JR.
Therapist office and he was coming out of session. You
ain't see nothing going wrong with this. It's already something wrong,
both of y'all at the therapist office. Now y'all in

(59:59):
that you locking eyes.

Speaker 4 (01:00:03):
Hey, Hey, hey, crazy, you're so crazy? You crazy? I'm crazy.
I'm crazier to you. You crazy? You ain't crazier to me.

Speaker 10 (01:00:13):
What is y'all arguing about? What is this relationship? Like
two people that need therapy is dating each other?

Speaker 11 (01:00:25):
What is this?

Speaker 10 (01:00:27):
Let's okay knowing this, let me read through the letter
and see where this therapy comes into play.

Speaker 3 (01:00:35):
It.

Speaker 4 (01:00:36):
I met a great man a's a therapist's office.

Speaker 10 (01:00:39):
He was coming out of his session and we locked
eyes right there, two crazy people saw each other locked eyes.

Speaker 19 (01:00:47):
Oh my god, he's a sick as me. Oh my god,
look at her. I wonder if she's sick too. Yeah, oh, y'all, okay,
let's read a little bit more.

Speaker 4 (01:01:00):
It was an instant attraction. Yes, yes, it was, Yes,
it was.

Speaker 10 (01:01:04):
Y'all got so much in common both, y'all coming out
the same doctor's office with issues.

Speaker 4 (01:01:11):
Come on, let's go. My therapist vows for him.

Speaker 10 (01:01:14):
Oh now, your therapist is in it, vouching for him,
of course, because he gonna say nothing wrong with him,
because he's supposed to be in there fixing people, but
now he's setting up crazy people. Now see a therapist
on a dating service. And we need to look at
this letter. And this is now you can say what
you want to say about don't say nothing about therapists.

(01:01:34):
This whole letter is about the therapist and therapy at
how therapy affects people's decisions.

Speaker 4 (01:01:43):
My therapist vowed for him and saying he got a
lot going on. I bet he do. Hell that why
in that.

Speaker 10 (01:01:47):
Office you don't see this, y'all. I'm reading this letter
with you, and he desperately wants a wife. Couse can't
find no wife.

Speaker 2 (01:01:55):
That won't hear or why?

Speaker 4 (01:01:56):
Because he's in that therapist office trying to get fixed.

Speaker 10 (01:01:59):
He won't desperately want some wife because he can't find
nobody want him. I was seeing the therapist to work
through some childhood trauma. What are you still dragging that
around for.

Speaker 16 (01:02:11):
Now?

Speaker 10 (01:02:12):
You're about the childhood trauma into this adulthood relationships. Now,
I'm gonna show you what her childhood trauma was in
a minute. And I'm not even a therapist.

Speaker 4 (01:02:22):
I'm so good at this though.

Speaker 1 (01:02:25):
He's all kinds of politically incorrect.

Speaker 4 (01:02:29):
All right, child And my man was there to get
over a bad break up.

Speaker 10 (01:02:34):
His ex fiance told you he had a wife mistreated
him and cheated on him. He said she always screamed
at him for no reason and stole money from him.
I assured him that none of that would happen with
me now, because that ain't what she wants. She wants
something else, and I'm gonna show you what she want
when we come back from the break. These are two
people that should have never been together because they met

(01:02:57):
each other at the wrong place.

Speaker 12 (01:03:00):
All right, dead Peace office, Hang on, Steve, we'll have
everybody if you're in fun. Coming up at twenty three
minutes after the hour. Today's Strawberry letter subject I need
him to toughen up. All right, we'll get back into
it in just a few you're listening Steve Hardy Morning Show.

Speaker 13 (01:03:22):
Do you ever notice your floors still look dirty even
you can see and feel. Unlike stream mops soft for
power Mop absorbs more dirt and locks it away even
and hard to reach places like behind the toilet. The
new micro scrubbers deliver thousands of tiny, deep cleaning actions

(01:03:42):
for results that look, smell, and feel clean. No more
dirty floors. Try the swift for power Mop. Love it
or your money back? All right, Come on, Steve, let's
recap today's strawberry letter. The subject is I need him
to toughen up.

Speaker 10 (01:03:57):
Let me do a disclaimer before I do this letter
for everybody out there, that is in therapy. Yeah, this
letter ain't about you. For everybody out there that recommends therapy.
I don't for everybody out there that is a therapist.
You can just be that's all this is. We're gonna

(01:04:21):
work through this. I can say that, Yes I can.
I'm tired of y'all.

Speaker 4 (01:04:25):
I'm tired. I said it. Yes, Okay, now let's go.
I've told you what's wrong.

Speaker 10 (01:04:31):
Two people that need help and got met down at
the helper's office, and the helper recommended that they get
together because that validates him as a therapist, that he
knows how to help people. So now he down a
matchmaking you either the therapist or your dating site. Make
up your mind. Okay, I met a great man at

(01:04:55):
the therapist's offic As soon as he walked out, we
locked eyes.

Speaker 4 (01:04:58):
Y'all recognized that y'all saw in each other. Everybody in
there need help.

Speaker 10 (01:05:02):
Y'all locked eyes and had and y'all got so much
in common. And there, y'all, my therapist vouch for him
because you went right in there and said.

Speaker 4 (01:05:10):
Who was that guy that just went up there? Oh
you're talking about crazy.

Speaker 10 (01:05:14):
Child, Oh child, cool Child's cool. He just got a
couple issues with his ex one, so he vouched for it.
I was seeing the therapist who work through some childhood trauma.

Speaker 4 (01:05:25):
Okay, here we go.

Speaker 10 (01:05:26):
She finish dragged that into the relationship because the therapy
sessions is still ongoing. She has not worked through them yet.
So now watch how she bring this drama into the
relationship and he gonna bring his and that she was
he Canna left his old fiance because she cheated on
him and hollered at him for no reason. He is
she assured him that would never happen from her and

(01:05:48):
she was in that work through some childhood drama.

Speaker 4 (01:05:51):
Then here we go.

Speaker 10 (01:05:54):
Now we're about to find out why y'all still going
to the therapist after dating for a few Monster, I
can see how much the past affects him. That's because
he just started with the therapist. Lady, you should have
let him get out and finish his sessions, but he didn't.
Dating him is a different cause. If we have a disagreement,
he'll separate me from days so I could cool off.

Speaker 4 (01:06:15):
He get away from me. He don't want no conflict.

Speaker 10 (01:06:19):
He think this way to make a relationship last by
separating himself from the conflict. Because it's been yelled at
through all his marriage and cheated on. It is never
that serious with me. Now watch this right here. I
understand he's had a traumatic past, but he's forty two
year old and I need him to toughen up.

Speaker 4 (01:06:35):
He runs a division at a warehouse, so I know
he can be a boss.

Speaker 10 (01:06:40):
I hate that he agrees listen to this. I hate
that he agrees with whatever I say. He said he
does that so I won't be upset with him. I'd
like to have healthy debates every now and then. Oh,
right there, the childhood trauma has resurfaced. Like to have

(01:07:01):
healthy debates. Translate that, Steve.

Speaker 4 (01:07:06):
Hut, like the argon. That's what that's exactly what mean?

Speaker 10 (01:07:13):
And because she been arguing all through her childhood trauma.
I like a good argument. I don't say how you
have a relationship without an argument. I like a healthy debate.
We need to be in here doing something. I like
to have healthy debates every now and then. I could
tell him that we having fish covered in brown gravy
for dinner, and he'll say, I try to that.

Speaker 4 (01:07:34):
What you want to eat? Matvation? I wish he'd have
an opinion, Oh, you want to walk in to go.
I don't know the fish.

Speaker 10 (01:07:48):
Hell we having fish for Oh that's my baby. We
having fish because I won't fish. I don't want no fish.
Oh well, you gonna get fish, because that's all all
I made was fish.

Speaker 4 (01:08:01):
Here come that healthy debate. She's always warming.

Speaker 10 (01:08:05):
Now he's scared of her because if he don't eat
this fish, he thinks she gonna cheat on you.

Speaker 4 (01:08:14):
See, because they neither one of them, out of their
therapy sessions met to earth. See what I'm telling you.
His ex fiance, he's treated to him.

Speaker 10 (01:08:26):
I always screamed at him, you know, and all this here,
So now guess what now where we're at. Now he
gonna eat the brown gravy on the fish. Okay, and
then now you mad looking over the heat, look at
this punky fish.

Speaker 4 (01:08:43):
He no good hair.

Speaker 20 (01:08:44):
Well, he don't want no gravy on his fish, and
he just gonna eat it anyway, just to shut me up,
or to throw that fish on it. Then she said,
I don't want to make all the decisions.

Speaker 4 (01:08:59):
I'm also the aggressor in the bedroom. Oh I know
you are. I had to initiate. Now he handled his business.

Speaker 10 (01:09:07):
That's after he find out it's okay to have sex
because he's scared of you. You'd made him eat this
brown fish. His stomach in that turning, because he had
this brown graveyard on this fish. Now his stomach in
that turning. Now you're gonna go over to the bedroom
and make love.

Speaker 4 (01:09:23):
Girl.

Speaker 10 (01:09:23):
I'm in here about to throw up, and you're gonna
make me come in do something to you and all this.
I don't even want to have hell to eat this fish?

Speaker 1 (01:09:34):
Wow?

Speaker 4 (01:09:35):
All right?

Speaker 10 (01:09:36):
It looks like a normal couple, but unlike he's not
in like any other man I've ever dated.

Speaker 4 (01:09:41):

Speaker 1 (01:13:41):
I love it. Thank you, sure, no, thank you, junior,
Thank you junior too. Yeah, coming up at the.

Speaker 4 (01:13:51):
Top, Thank Steve, y'all welcome, coming up at the.

Speaker 12 (01:13:56):
Top of the hour, Young woman on social media. Needs
some advice. She said, I don't want to lose my family.
We'll talk about it right after this. You're listening to
the Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, This is from
Amaya on Steve Harvey FM. Amaya says, I've been living
with my boyfriend for almost a year now, and my

(01:14:17):
parents have no idea. They're very religious and expect me
to be also, so I've kept this part of my
life from them. When I tell them, I'm pretty sure
they won't approve, especially since he's an atheist. I've already
come to terms with the fact that I would choose
him if it came down to it, but that doesn't
make the idea of disappointing or losing my parents any easier.

(01:14:39):
How can I have the life I want and not
lose my family in the process.

Speaker 10 (01:14:44):
That's what I'm your family. You're dating a person that
that's not a match. You're living with a person and
it is the spiritual thing it's called You're just not
evenly yoked. You're from a religious background, you're dating an
a this How can you possibly think that this can work?

Speaker 4 (01:15:05):
How did it happen?

Speaker 3 (01:15:07):
You know?

Speaker 4 (01:15:07):
What did he say?

Speaker 6 (01:15:09):
Right?

Speaker 4 (01:15:09):
Right, What what was the conversation you had that and
made you know?

Speaker 10 (01:15:16):
If you're a believer, when you're talking to an atheist,
what can he say that converts you?

Speaker 4 (01:15:24):
So have you converted?

Speaker 11 (01:15:26):
Now?

Speaker 1 (01:15:27):
No, she didn't say that all of that.

Speaker 10 (01:15:29):
Well, now there has to be some form of what
do you call it? Compromise? Yeah, so what's the compromise
that you had to make to live with the atheists?
What did you have to give up? Because everybody got
to give up something?

Speaker 12 (01:15:51):
She said her parents are very religious and they expect
her to be also, That's what she said.

Speaker 10 (01:15:57):
And so I think what she's saying right there is
I'm not exactly not only in that am I not
very religious? I don't even want to be religious. And
I think and I think the compromise has been made.
I'm okay living with the person that's an atheist because
I'm cool with that. I think that's maybe with that,

(01:16:17):
And so I don't think it's soon. Your parents ain't
gonna be happy with it either way at all. No, No,
either way.

Speaker 11 (01:16:25):
I want to go down the church. Eh, that's where
you're going this morning. You're going back.

Speaker 4 (01:16:31):
Down that church.

Speaker 1 (01:16:32):
That's that's their their Sunday discussion, Tommy.

Speaker 4 (01:16:36):
I want to go to brunch. Why we can't go
to brunch getting married? I'm sure, what do they say?

Speaker 12 (01:16:43):
What do you take the vow No, I don't know
their vowels. That's something good to look up. I don't know,
but yeah, I don't know. All right, Yeah, that's that's
gonna be a problem for you for sure. Like Steve said,
all right, we have time for another one. This is
from Nina on Steve Harvey FM. Nina says, yesterday, my
boss told me to prepare for putting in some time

(01:17:05):
to work on a project this weekend. I reminded him
that I helped out three different weekends in March. To that,
he replied that I should be more of a teen
player and be willing to pitch in more. Meanwhile, I
could name at least three of my coworkers who haven't
done a darn thing, but they apparently get a pass
because they have kids. I don't want to lose my

(01:17:27):
job over this, but it's clearly not fair and I'm
getting sick of it.

Speaker 1 (01:17:31):
What can I do about it?

Speaker 12 (01:17:32):
It feels abusive and like I'm being taken for granted,
but no one seems to care enough to do anything.

Speaker 4 (01:17:39):
Why don't you go to the park this weekend?

Speaker 1 (01:17:42):
But her boss wants her to come to work.

Speaker 4 (01:17:46):
Yeah, why don't you go to the park this weekend.

Speaker 1 (01:17:51):
She's afraid she.

Speaker 12 (01:17:51):
Might lose her job. You can't lose your job for that,
that's what she wants to know. What can she do
about it?

Speaker 1 (01:17:57):
You're saying, go to the park.

Speaker 4 (01:18:00):
Being discriminated against because you don't have children. That's what
she feels.

Speaker 1 (01:18:08):
Abusive.

Speaker 4 (01:18:09):
Oh and and you're being abused, she said.

Speaker 12 (01:18:13):
It feels abusive. Yeah, and it feels like she's being
taken for granted.

Speaker 10 (01:18:18):
See once a woman says that to HR about a
man that's in a supervisory capacity.

Speaker 4 (01:18:27):
I've taken these HR courses every year.

Speaker 1 (01:18:30):
Gonna listen.

Speaker 4 (01:18:32):
Listen to me.

Speaker 13 (01:18:34):
It's so many ways he can get in trouble. So
go to HR and plead her case, is what you're saying,
And go to the park. I go to the park first, Right,
All right.

Speaker 12 (01:18:48):
Coming up, we'll have more of the Steve Harvey Morning
Show right after this. You're listening to the Steve Harvey
Morning Show. Scientists using as a supercomputer have made a
long term prediction about the end of life on Earth.
All life on Earth is expected to disappear around the

(01:19:08):
year one billion, twenty and twenty one. Okay, you got that,
You got that to so do all you need to
do between the year one billion twenty twenty one. The
reason isn't war or it's not climate change. Instead, it's

(01:19:29):
because of the sun. As the Sun slowly grows hotter
over time, rising temperatures will evaporate the oceans, then the atmosphere,
and eventually wipe out even the toughest micro organisms. Humans
likely won't last anywhere near that long. Scientists say we've
already we're already seeing very early warning signs of those

(01:19:52):
early changes today. But they stress that this is a
very slow natural process, not an apocalypse.

Speaker 1 (01:19:58):
And sure we don't need to panic about.

Speaker 4 (01:20:00):
Why are you doing this story?

Speaker 3 (01:20:02):
You why know.

Speaker 12 (01:20:05):
One billion twenty twenty one, that's when the Earth, that's
when it's all going to go away.

Speaker 1 (01:20:10):
You don't want you don't, You don't think you need
to know that? Awkward Scientists.

Speaker 10 (01:20:15):
Way more people concerned about when the next check is coming? Yes,
how they going to be able to get all these
groceries and get these bills paid? Ain't nobody would about
when this world going in a billion years from.

Speaker 4 (01:20:31):
A billion years.

Speaker 12 (01:20:33):
But that's what scientists do though. Yeah, going up next,
we'll play around it. Would you rather? Right after this?

Speaker 1 (01:20:40):

It's one of the tough things at night. So hard.

Speaker 1 (01:25:55):
Hard.

Speaker 13 (01:25:55):
Mentoring Junior, Oh, mentoring out of team time limits to you?

Speaker 10 (01:26:00):
Well, they should have time constraints, you know. It's just
my mentoring program is only open for adult men or
doing radio hours at all.

Speaker 11 (01:26:10):
Junior.

Speaker 10 (01:26:13):
Junior has extended the program into all hours of the night.
That's not what we're doing here. I don't mentor after ten?

Speaker 4 (01:26:21):
And that's what what if?

Speaker 2 (01:26:23):
What if he answered the questions?

Speaker 4 (01:26:26):
All of his questions is after ten.

Speaker 1 (01:26:31):
When he's at work, you're at work.

Speaker 13 (01:26:33):
So when he gets off work, if he and that's
one but the mentoring session, you can't help him out.

Speaker 4 (01:26:39):

the phone, Yes, Junior, what you think that is?

Speaker 1 (01:27:07):
Okay?

Speaker 6 (01:27:07):
Well?

Speaker 1 (01:27:07):
What what kind of questions is he asking? That get
on your nerves so badly?

Speaker 4 (01:27:12):
I mean, it's just you know, it's just life questions,
you know, juniors.

Speaker 1 (01:27:18):

Speaker 1 (01:27:42):
Oh, it's more of I told you already, JR.

Speaker 4 (01:27:46):
Give him example of a few questions you've asked me
off the aird. Just give him a couple of examples.

Speaker 2 (01:27:51):
Okay, Like I called him up. She not listening to me.

Speaker 10 (01:27:57):
I talked right there, right there. She wasn't listening to you.
Before you got me, she did worse. Now, Yeah, don't
listen to you. Your mama don't listen to you. Women
don't listen to us.

Speaker 1 (01:28:11):
Jud No, no, you do not.

Speaker 4 (01:28:13):
They just don't. Okay. Another question, Another question, junior.

Speaker 2 (01:28:18):
Okay, this is another question. I'm responsible for all of
this stuff. I'm responsible on the response. I got to
be responsible for everything.

Speaker 4 (01:28:26):
Why do you think this woman married you?

Speaker 16 (01:28:32):
Junior?

Speaker 1 (01:28:32):
Would you consider Steve a good mentor?

Speaker 4 (01:28:35):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:28:35):
He's the best?

Speaker 1 (01:28:36):
Really right there?

Speaker 10 (01:28:38):
You don't understand? Like that question right there? Why I
got paid for all this here? Why do you think
this woman married you? You thought of something else? He
was cute your curly hair?

Speaker 1 (01:28:51):
Yes, okay, so Junior, Steve, I'm reading online.

Speaker 13 (01:28:56):
It's talking about mentoring and mentors assist and clarifying short
term and long term goals, offering feedback and encouragement for
problem solving.

Speaker 4 (01:29:08):
Google ain't no mentor how's Google gonna tell me to
be me?

Speaker 1 (01:29:17):
Google?

Speaker 10 (01:29:17):
Ain't no mentor. Google ain't mentor nobody.

Speaker 12 (01:29:23):
Okay, so then why do you step into the position
of mentor if you're not going to mentor.

Speaker 1 (01:29:31):
And upset the mentee?

Speaker 12 (01:29:33):
Yeah, I mean you're his mentor, but you don't. You
get upset and he gets on your nerves.

Speaker 4 (01:29:38):
Saw me mentor? These boys I've been doing this seventeen.

Speaker 1 (01:29:40):
Years, right, they're good at it.

Speaker 4 (01:29:44):
All of my ranches. Yeah, both people had properties.

Speaker 10 (01:29:47):
So now you just jumped in on that and would
give me another example of one of your question j
let me show you.

Speaker 14 (01:29:53):
Okay, what if I just I may say something like
this too, like I don't think I'm gonna make it,
and I agree.

Speaker 1 (01:30:02):
You're the worst mentor to junior.

Speaker 10 (01:30:05):
Edver, I take all this long. Let's get these quick
responses in so we can get off this phone. I
can get back over here and watch this game.

Speaker 4 (01:30:16):
Free time.

Speaker 1 (01:30:17):
And I had a mentor quickly another one here.

Speaker 13 (01:30:21):
Oh you want to know what Google says about that?
What you just your response to Junior go ahead. Mentoring
provides a non judgmental environment to share challenges, explore ideas,
and reflect on experience.

Speaker 10 (01:30:36):
Yeah, I didn't judge. I agreed, I don't think I'm
gonna make it. I don't think you.

Speaker 1 (01:30:44):
Are, Junior. Ask him another question.

Speaker 2 (01:30:48):
I've said this to him. Up, Steve, can you come
over here and counsel us? Can you just come over up?

Speaker 4 (01:30:55):
Hell no, I'm not coming out.

Speaker 10 (01:30:58):
How to tell you to move all the way out?
The I'm not coming over and the other reason I'm
not coming over because you ain't got no sense.

Speaker 12 (01:31:07):
I can't help people walking up on me, Junior, have
you thought about changing mentors?

Speaker 1 (01:31:13):
Maybe Tommy can. Tommy can be your mentor, maybe he
can be your Hell.

Speaker 2 (01:31:20):
Yeah, I'm gonna be asking. I'm gonna be tallerant my mentor.

Speaker 1 (01:31:25):
Ask him a question.

Speaker 4 (01:31:27):
