I do serve the one that does,and that's God.

lot and I've learned a lot.
And thanks to my many mistakes,girl, I made some mistakes.
Okay, can you feel me?
Can I get an amen?
Thanks to my many mistakes,hurts, habits and hangups, I can

You know about life and howGod's hand was in it, even
through all the messy things.
If there's one thing I know, isthat life doesn't always make
(02:15):
sense and we don't have to gothrough it alone.
So that's my goal for the showto be that girlfriend who's
ready to listen and offer somesound advice, whether it's
navigating a tough situation orjust finding a way to laugh
through the chaos.

handle it all with a little moregrace and a lot more laughter.
Speaking of which, I love tolaugh.

joke or two along the way.

should go and check it out andmy fixation with a few TV shows
such as Abbott Elementary, onlyMurders in the Building, just to

If I had one error that I couldeither live in again or do over
, it would be 1990 to 1999.
That era was epic, from thehairstyles to the clothes, the
simplicity of things, and justto be able to go back to when
(03:42):
gas was 89 cents a gallon.
You remember that when gas was89 cents a gallon.
Now I'm from Arkansas, sowherever part of the world you
were in, okay during those nin agallon.
Now I'm from Arkansas, sowherever part of the world you
were in, okay during those 90s.

gallon and you know, back thenit was like man, you thought gas
was hot but compared to theseprices and they had it good,
(04:05):

(04:49):
lemon and just be.
We'll dive into some fun andthoughtful topics too.

adage something old, somethingnew, something borrowed,
something blue where I'll talkabout what's new and what we can
learn from the past and how itall relates to our lives.
