Speaker 1 (00:00):
Kevin. What's happening, buddy, How you doing? I'm good, I'm chilling.
If you relate to what Kevin's talking about, or you
get some advice for him, we want you to call
eight four to four Mojoe Live. And if you text
and you have something, just text call me and Lydia
will call you. But Kevin feels like he's lost a
little bit of his confidence. Explain that, because yeah, you're
a confident guy. Are you faking it or what?
Speaker 2 (00:21):
No?
Speaker 3 (00:21):
No, no, I'm not faking it. I like to call
it my zip. That's what I call it. I think
whenever you go through a traumatic experience, it could be
the death of a loved one or a close family
member or relative. It could be a divorce. For me,
it was, you know, losing what I thought was going
to be my wife and the daughter I thought I had.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
And when you deal.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
With something of that caliber, something that weighs that much,
there has just been I feel like I've lost. And
when I say confidence, not like in who I am,
I would say more so in the future I thought
I had. And I'm a very sure person, like I
like to move with and tension.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
I know the.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
Direction I'm headed, and I'm going towards that. There's not
a lot of wavering in my spirit. And I feel
like post that experience, for like the last year or so,
I've hesitated more in my actions than I ever have
in my life, and I feel like I've lost a
little bit of who I am in that regard and
some days, and I guess the faked part is like
(01:21):
coming in here and having to be quote unquote on like, yes,
some of that is because I don't feel like that
every day, Like there is it's kind of like a
tennis match. Some days you know it's on this side
and I'm hitting it over there and everything's great. Then
the other side is like, I'm not hitting the ball
so well today. So it is this back and forth
and slowly but surely, I guess like the conundrum I'm
(01:43):
dealing with or the mental battle is like not necessarily
holding on to the person I loved who I was,
but like trying to get comfortable and understanding this new
version of myself and believing that it can be better.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
You know, can you recap the listeners a little bit
on what you're talking about when you're ambout losing, because
I know that they know a lot of people know
that you broke up with your your fiance or you're
soon to be Beyonce and you guys broke up, But
then you just updated the listeners not that long ago.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
I know that journey wasn't my biological daughter. Yeah, so.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
You have been going through this more than just when
you opened up to the listeners and told that like you.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
I mean when I found that out, it was last
June July. So you know, there's a difference when you
have an internal battle that you're dealing with that you
aren't able to, for whatever reason, express to people. So
you're almost dealing with all of this alone, and nobody
should have to deal with anything alone. Do the holidays
make it harder? You think, No, last year was cold.
(02:46):
I'm not even gonna lie like I wasn't really. I
mean you do have those moments, yeah, that play in
your mind like, oh, man, like the holidays would have
been looking like this, or we will be planning a
wedding now, and but last.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
Year was the first holidays where yeah happened.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
So last year, yeah, I moved out in December and
got my new place. But then but that's the thing
where it's like you, So I'm a for real had
a quote where he was like, the best point of
your life is not becoming who you want to be.
It's understanding who you were, who you were chosen to be.
Like when you give up the thought of like this
(03:21):
is what I'm supposed to do and you accept who
you were called to be, like, that's even better. And
there's like a lesson in I guess losing the vision
of what you thought. So the holidays look differently because
it wasn't what I thought it would be. But I
ended up spending the night with Josiah and his mom,
which was the first holiday that has ever happened for Josiah.
So I wouldn't have been able to Yeah, I wouldn't
have been able to have that moment if I had
(03:43):
had this moment.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
Sway to look at it, somebody told me when actually
a really good friend of mine said, and somebody's probably
said this to you, that you it is really really
important to fully grieve the life that you thought you
were going to have, like in your case with Cherrell
and being a father of two and what that was
going to look like. And that takes a lot of time.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
I feel like and I'm gonna be honest in it.
I feel like the church in my mindset kind of
screwed me up on grieving process.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
And this is just my thought.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
Like we have good Friday, and like I do, I
feel like the only reason we say is good because
like we know he resurrected. Like how good was it
that the person you thought was going to be to
save your died? Like there's nothing good about that. But
like when we talk about Easter, like we only talk
about he's risen. He's risen, He's risen, but it was
like time for when he died to when he actually rose.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
And I feel like in my mind, I'm.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Always Easter, like it's always gonna get better, Like it's
always I'm back, I'm back, I'm back. I've never like
understood I guess the process of grief.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Yeah, you know, it's wild. Is first off, it's it's
wild to know Kevin grieving because, to be quite honest
with you, you always are such an upbeat guy and
you're the guy that always comes to us to help
us when we're all kind of going through our grief.
He's a good energy all the time and he brings
he usually brings something to whatever we're going through and
(05:00):
makes it so much better for us. So I feel
like we got to be there for you, but also
I feel like we'll pale in comparison to you. But
I also want to give you some advice because I
had a friend of mine at one time told me,
when you are in a moment like this where you
feel like you're just not yourself, don't do something that
you would normally not do. And what he meant by
(05:20):
that was, don't make a big decision, you know, don't
go crazy and say I'm going to do something crazy.
Even honestly sometimes you know, you go, I'm going on
this trip. You know I'm going to do this thing,
and all of a sudden, you do it, and you go.
That really didn't help me because I wasn't working through
my problem. The other one, too, is he would always say,
don't drink alcohol or smoke weed or do any of
that stuff because you think you're doing that all you're
(05:41):
doing is masking the issue. But I look at what
you went through, and I say to myself, I don't
know how you are have lasted the last year and
a half like that, because that was such a major
event that happened, and it was a screeching halt to
your life and everything that you wanted your life to be.
(06:02):
And I know you as a guy that wants to
be settled down in a relationship. You're a family kind
of guy. And I thank God that you have Josiah.
I thank god that you're you know, Jasmine, Josiah's mom,
and you are in good relationship. But I get it, man,
and I appreciate you bringing this up.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
And I think you got to give yourself some grace.
It's only been a year, do you know what I mean?
And for you, you thought that was going to be
the whole rest of your life. It's only been a year,
which really is not that long. Yeah, I mean to
grapple with all of the change.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Nick, What did you want to say, Nick?
Speaker 5 (06:44):
Well, I just wanted to say that delay is not denial.
And Bill it didn't work out with his previous relationship,
he shouldn't get discouraged that it won't happen for him.
It's just that that person wasn't for him. And I
was thinking, since it is the holidays, maybe you guys
should probab to do a segment where it's like a
date with Kevin.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
That might be exactly what my friend was saying. Don't
you I don't know, why are you single? Would you
like it?
Speaker 6 (07:12):
I don't know, but I am single, but I don't know.
Speaker 5 (07:16):
It's not for me. I'm just saying, but that will
be something that will maybe help him.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
So the easiest way to get over is to get
under is what you're.
Speaker 5 (07:23):
Saying, right, No, I wouldn't say that either, because you
don't want to. You don't want to get into me.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
I'd unders too, sat, I want to eat some cookies.
This was a wonderful moment. Hold on initial be voice disguised,
what's up the b Yeah, but when it.
Speaker 7 (07:42):
Comes down to breeze, I totally get where he's Last year,
around this time, I had a lot of child It
caused a risk in my relationship. And now I mean
hear out. It's still super emotional about it. But hey, pray, pray,
and I know Ted is a praying hand. And I
(08:03):
will sit around all day, all day, whether I'm at work, school,
and I just talked.
Speaker 6 (08:09):
Just talk to God.
Speaker 7 (08:10):
Don't even get on my knees to praying out in
my car and just talk.
Speaker 6 (08:14):
Please help us get through the day.
Speaker 7 (08:16):
And a year later, I still struggle. But that's that's
how I make it through my day.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Literally, sometimes the only thing you can do is pray. Yeah,
that is sometimes.
Speaker 7 (08:30):
When I had my still born, it was a lot
of you know, maybe I'm he's in faith, Maybe this
isn't real, maybe that's not true, but I don't know.
I can't think like that because where's my baby?
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Then?
Speaker 7 (08:47):
You know, if I can't believe that there's someone higher,
where do I believe my baby went?
Speaker 1 (08:52):
So thank you b for sharing that. I know we're
thinking of you. I appreciate you. You calling in, Alexa. Also,
you dealt with a loss, and you got an piece
of advice for Kevin. What you want to say? Hi? Alexa?
Speaker 6 (09:12):
Hi, first of all, first time, long time, but I
just wanted to say, keV, I get with the grieving process.
About three years ago, my boyfriend was murdered in a
bar fight and we were pregnant with our son that
we lost two weeks before he died. So I was
(09:34):
grieving the son and his father all at once. And
I have had this hard time grieving to the point
I've just pushed my feelings and tried to avoid it.
I've put down all my picture frames. I'm not grieving
in the best way, and it can be hard because
I had two kids that really were close to him at.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
The same time, and it's Is it tougher when you
get to this time of the year for both of
those losses.
Speaker 6 (10:05):
Yeah, it does. His birthday is only a couple of
days after Christmas too, so it kind of feels lonely
around Christmas because we're always celebrating his birthday after Christmas too.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
So how do you like?
Speaker 3 (10:18):
You mentioned and I couldn't imagine going through what you
are still going through. And my prayers and my heart
are with you and your your other children. You mentioned
pushing down, Yeah, you mentioned pushing down your emotions. How
do you handle the emotions of your other children and
their grieving process?
Speaker 6 (10:40):
Yeah? I did put them through therapy. I even attended
therapy to ask how to help my kids slickers. My
kids were younger, so you know, my therapist let me
know that we'd probably be grieving the next couple of
years when they understood what death was. But I always
allow my kids to come sit down, and when they
are missing him, we always sit down and we talk
(11:02):
about the good times with him. I try not to
show my emotion when it comes to grieving him, because
I don't want to upset them. It is hard.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Wow, that's that's a lot for some for one person
to deal with. That's uh strong, that's amazing.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
Thank you. I appreciate that.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
I appreciate your call. Hopefully this will be one of
those holidays though, that you have something that just comes
to you that makes the holidays just amazing. And let's
hope that that happens.
Speaker 6 (11:34):
I appreciate that. I hope you that's some great holidays too.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Thank you. I appreciate it. I want to grab John
because John went through exactly what you're going through and
have gone through where John, you thought that a child
was yours and then it found out that it was
not yours, and you had some advice for Kevin and
how you got through that. Go ahead and tell Kevin.
Speaker 8 (12:00):
First, good morning. My situation was a little tough race
for seven years wind up not being my child, and
we also had another child together, so I wound up
getting custody of him and she had to stay with
(12:23):
her mom, and it was tough. Many years of it
being tough. I stuck with family, friends, and we got
through it. I kept praying that something would change. She's
My son is nineteen, she's twenty. They graduated last year
(12:44):
and I was able to go to her graduation.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
People always say give it time.
Speaker 9 (12:51):
Sometimes time is really long, and I still deal with it.
But the good things is I stayed connected with her
because she's still a part of me. The advice I
get to you is find peace with yourself and find
peace with it.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
If you have to stay connected, stay connected as much
as you can, but not too much. Because I had
to still manage my son and his ability to deal
with his sister too. It takes time. But I really
want to say, also, I'm thankful as a man you
(13:33):
can be vulnerable on the radio and say this. I
think warm being should so thank you too.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Yeah, absolutely, bro.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Then you know that that was I think some of
it also was like damn, Like sometimes you go through
things where you're like, man, how could this happen to me?
Like not necessarily, I think I'm that one. I am
well also, like you know what I mean, some of
that too, But I truly feel like that's why we
all have this platform that we do. It's to share
things that in the moment feels unshareable, Like I don't
(14:04):
want people to look at me in the light of it,
you know, in a certain way, or think you know
certain things about me. But because in my life, I
don't think I've ever had a conversation with anybody that's
gone through this like I think as me and we
don't want to show that our girl either cheated, you know,
or our girl did whatever the case may be, because
it doesn't make us feel like a man, so to speak.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
But God bless you, Bro, I'm glad you.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
And I want to say one last thing for you go.
My mom always says to me, you go through it
because God gave you the ability to go through it
so you can help someone else. And that's what I'm gonna.
Speaker 8 (14:40):
Say to you.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
You were giving it bad situation so you can help
other people get through it too.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
So John, thank you, appreciate so much. God bless you, Bro.
Amazing call.
Kevin. What's happening, buddy, How you doing? I'm good, I'm chilling.
If you relate to what Kevin's talking about, or you
get some advice for him, we want you to call
eight four to four Mojoe Live. And if you text

whenever you go through a traumatic experience, it could be
the death of a loved one or a close family
member or relative. It could be a divorce. For me,
it was, you know, losing what I thought was going
to be my wife and the daughter I thought I had.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
And when you deal.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
With something of that caliber, something that weighs that much,
there has just been I feel like I've lost. And

you dealt with a loss, and you got an piece
of advice for Kevin. What you want to say? Hi? Alexa?
Speaker 6 (09:12):
Hi, first of all, first time, long time, but I
just wanted to say, keV, I get with the grieving process.
About three years ago, my boyfriend was murdered in a
bar fight and we were pregnant with our son that
we lost two weeks before he died. So I was
(09:34):
grieving the son and his father all at once. And
I have had this hard time grieving to the point
I've just pushed my feelings and tried to avoid it.
I've put down all my picture frames. I'm not grieving
in the best way, and it can be hard because
I had two kids that really were close to him at.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
The same time, and it's Is it tougher when you
get to this time of the year for both of
those losses.
Speaker 6 (10:05):
Yeah, it does. His birthday is only a couple of
days after Christmas too, so it kind of feels lonely
around Christmas because we're always celebrating his birthday after Christmas too.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
So how do you like?
Speaker 3 (10:18):
You mentioned and I couldn't imagine going through what you
are still going through. And my prayers and my heart
are with you and your your other children. You mentioned
pushing down, Yeah, you mentioned pushing down your emotions. How
do you handle the emotions of your other children and
their grieving process?
Speaker 6 (10:40):
Yeah? I did put them through therapy. I even attended
therapy to ask how to help my kids slickers. My
kids were younger, so you know, my therapist let me
know that we'd probably be grieving the next couple of
years when they understood what death was. But I always
allow my kids to come sit down, and when they
are missing him, we always sit down and we talk
(11:02):
about the good times with him. I try not to
show my emotion when it comes to grieving him, because
I don't want to upset them. It is hard.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Wow, that's that's a lot for some for one person
to deal with. That's uh strong, that's amazing.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
Thank you. I appreciate that.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
I appreciate your call. Hopefully this will be one of
those holidays though, that you have something that just comes
to you that makes the holidays just amazing. And let's
hope that that happens.
Speaker 6 (11:34):
I appreciate that. I hope you that's some great holidays too.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Thank you. I appreciate it. I want to grab John
because John went through exactly what you're going through and
have gone through where John, you thought that a child
was yours and then it found out that it was
not yours, and you had some advice for Kevin and
how you got through that. Go ahead and tell Kevin.
Speaker 8 (12:00):
First, good morning. My situation was a little tough race
for seven years wind up not being my child, and
we also had another child together, so I wound up
getting custody of him and she had to stay with
(12:23):
her mom, and it was tough. Many years of it
being tough. I stuck with family, friends, and we got
through it. I kept praying that something would change. She's
My son is nineteen, she's twenty. They graduated last year
(12:44):
and I was able to go to her graduation.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
People always say give it time.
Speaker 9 (12:51):
Sometimes time is really long, and I still deal with it.
But the good things is I stayed connected with her
because she's still a part of me. The advice I
get to you is find peace with yourself and find
peace with it.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
If you have to stay connected, stay connected as much
as you can, but not too much. Because I had
to still manage my son and his ability to deal
with his sister too. It takes time. But I really
want to say, also, I'm thankful as a man you
(13:33):
can be vulnerable on the radio and say this. I
think warm being should so thank you too.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Yeah, absolutely, bro.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Then you know that that was I think some of
it also was like damn, Like sometimes you go through
things where you're like, man, how could this happen to me?
Like not necessarily, I think I'm that one. I am
well also, like you know what I mean, some of
that too, But I truly feel like that's why we
all have this platform that we do. It's to share
things that in the moment feels unshareable, Like I don't
(14:04):
want people to look at me in the light of it,
you know, in a certain way, or think you know
certain things about me. But because in my life, I
don't think I've ever had a conversation with anybody that's
gone through this like I think as me and we
don't want to show that our girl either cheated, you know,
or our girl did whatever the case may be, because
it doesn't make us feel like a man, so to speak.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
But God bless you, Bro, I'm glad you.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
And I want to say one last thing for you go.
My mom always says to me, you go through it
because God gave you the ability to go through it
so you can help someone else. And that's what I'm gonna.
Speaker 8 (14:40):
Say to you.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
You were giving it bad situation so you can help
other people get through it too.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
So John, thank you, appreciate so much. God bless you, Bro.
Amazing call.
