Diary of a Mad Black Man

Diary of a Mad Black Man

I started this podcast as a diary in October 2019 after I almost died. After being released from the hospital, I found hope for life again through God, Therapy and Podcasting. Soon after feeling "healthy" again, the Global Pandemic of 2020 shut the world down. The mental anguish I endured is partially shown through diary entries and podcast episodes. As of August 2024, by the Grace of God, I am still living. God + Therapy + Podcasting = Saved my Life.

Cheers to 3 years of podcasting. This has been a journey that I feel so many emotions about ending. I found hope, lost hope and found it again over the past 3 years. In this moment, I still do not have it all together, and honestly, I am not sure if I ever will. However, I am glad that I was able to tell my story. I just hope someone else finds the ability to overcome and find a way to live with their mental health and wellness cha...

In this diary entry, I was able to have a conversation with my grandmother, my Dads mom to talk about her life, my Dad and family. Not much else I can say here, you just have to listen.

This episode/series was recorded back in July of 2020, during the pandemic. I was able to have my cousin join me to share his story about his life and upbringing. Little did I know when we sat down to record, I would learn so much more about him, his life and his mindset. These diary entries changed our relationship and made us much closer.

Me and my Auntie Edna have a bond that is similar to the one me and my grandmother had. She get's me. She understands me, and I feel true, unconditional love and support from her. Being able to have her here to share our story together is an honor. I hope this episode brings some healing to other families and relationships.

One of the first people I met was Queen Cole. We connected early in the pandemic while we were both trying to figure out this podcast thing. We have grown and evolved tremendously over past few years and I am very happy one of my final episodes features this dope creative, entrepreneur, and author - Queen Cole! I turned the tables and allowed her to interview me for this episode.

Around the time I wanted to end the podcast, I wanted to find a way to end with bringing a new perspective to my journey. I allowed a few people I met in the podcast space to interview me and Walt was one of the people who showed up! I am super thankful for Walt & I am very thankful I have crossed paths with him. 

Wish you continued success bro - Keep that creative confidence thriving.

Latrice is someone who I connected with in Afros & Audio. We met during the pandemic and were finally able to meet in person last year at podcast movement. She is a licensed mental health therapist and I am glad to have her on the podcast. She started her career with counseling with the military and also had a private practice.

I am thankful to have had her on the podcast to share space to raise awareness about mental health.

Over the past few years, I've learn to produce podcasts on my own. In diary entry 140, I lay out a few things that I important that I speak on.

This diary entry is a deep reflection on the idea of "Letting go of the pain" I recorded on February 7th 2022. So this episode is really a reflection on my life from October/November 2021 - February 2022.  

In this vulnerable, raw diary entry, I was realizing I need to truly let go of the pain from my past, the pain that I carry and accept what is. The pain of my grandmother no loner being here...

I reflected on this idea of l...

The first birthday without tears where I did not cry because I missed my grandmother. Its a weird feeling because I am questioning myself, why I didn't cry.  I believe the pain of her death and absence on earth is not as severe as it once was. I still miss her a lot and its crazy its been 6 years and I finally feel ok talking about. I can finally have vivid thoughts & conversations about her without getting extremely emotional. Thi...
