all about how we navigate and maneuver and function while
we're going through some of these unforeseen challenges that people,

(01:49):
all of us, not just people, all of us experience
in life. And it's such as life because we are
going to have some ups, and we're going to have
many ups, and we're gonna have some downs, and how
we function through those times is what really makes a difference.
And I know for me, the way that I function
in those times is to be able to trust in

(02:11):
the Lord with all of my heart and lead not
into my own understanding, but in all of my ways
I acknowledge him and guess what, He always directs my path.

Welcome to the Kim Jacob Show. Charmin Thompson. How are you, Charmaine,

(04:00):
And I'm.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
So excited to be on with you today. Thank you
for having me. I'm so excited.

Speaker 3 (04:06):
I think this has been like a long time coming,
right Yeah, yeah, that's what.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
I'm smiling from ear to ear. I'm like, because sure, man,
it's on my show. People don't know how special it
is when you can have some people that you've kind
of encountered on social media, but to get the opportunity
to be here virtually with you is such a blessing.
Thank you, Thank you.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
I love your background, I love your smile, everything about you.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
I think a jewels. So glad to have you here today.
Thank you for having me on today. Well, we're gonna
get right on into this because the big thing is
people really need help navigating some of the highs and
some of the lows the pitfalls in life. And so
as we as we're jump starting our conversation, tonight, I

(04:57):
wanted to really find out you. I wrote a book
called Faith in the Midst of Adversity, and I really
want people to understand what was that book birth from?
Was it birth from personal experiences or was it more
of a guide for other people? What was it birth from?

Speaker 2 (05:17):
So that book was birth from personal experiences that I encounter.
It was a buyer of my life, the things that
I encounter and how God took me through that. And
I can say I can be triumphant since my personal experience.

Speaker 1 (05:37):
And so your personal experience. A lot of times people
when they are sharing their personal experiences, it's hard because
you have to decide what pieces of the puzzle you're
going to share. Even though it's going to put it
together for other people's lives, it's your real life. So
it's not a movie, but it reads like a movie.
It reads like you're watching a lifetime based on true

(05:58):
events story type thing. How do you determine what pieces
of your story you're going to share personally? So I
wanted to share the journey of my life when I
was younger too. It like is a.

Speaker 2 (06:17):
It climbs to where I am today in my life.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
It was my former years.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
That I navigate through the journey of my life. So
those former years was being abused in my former years
with someone that my parents trust to keep me in
their care. So in those years when you're about nine

(06:44):
years old, you you you're just starting not even knowing yourself.
Really you're You're just a little kid. And those years
were very difficult for me. The book Faith in the
Adversity was my life story how I navigate through life

(07:07):
to where I am today. Those years were I was
abused at a younger age and had to know how
to handle stuff like that. I did not know how
to handle that because I was just required to write
right right. I was only nine years old. So those

(07:29):
years were very difficult for me. And I remember that
was nine years old to my teenager years. It had
me very angry. You know, life is full of on certainty.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
How do we.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
Go through it is by facing what we're going through,
and you know, fear, fear sometimes get a hold of us.
And when that fear comes on us, we have to
face it head on. Because you know, I realized something

(08:10):
during those times that I didn't even tell my parents
what was going on until I got into my teenager years.
I was very angry. Fear sometimes gets you angry. Anger
become hate. Hate becomes suffering internally, and that's what I

(08:33):
was facing internal pain. And then I came here to
the state because I'm from the island, so I came
here to the state. Here I come My language is Hatwa,
that's what they have in Jamaica, a native language. People
didn't know our culture here, so I was bullied. On

(08:56):
top of that, I had to know how to navigate
all those emotions what I was going through at those age.
I remember it was in my teenager years that I
was going.

Speaker 1 (09:09):
Through so much.

Speaker 2 (09:10):
I was going through turmoil within myself. I remember telling
my parents what happened to me because of the turmoil
I was going through, and I remember.

Speaker 1 (09:24):
That so much like it was yesterday. You know that
they didn't believe it was.

Speaker 2 (09:34):
It was painful because I had to relive what I
went through telling them what happened to me.

Speaker 1 (09:40):
You know, my family that is very.

Speaker 2 (09:44):
Close knitted, and I could not believe what was happening
to me at that point. So I had to know
how to navigate through those emotions because I was having
a lot of different emotions going on with me.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
Being bulded, being molested.

Speaker 2 (10:04):
All those emotions was just crazy for me in my
teenage years. I had to know how to navigate through them,
and with the help of family and the help of
friends that pour into me in such a way. You know,
when you go through those stuff in your life as
at a tender age, it have your heelp esteem very low.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
You feel like you're not worthy.

Speaker 2 (10:30):
You feel like whatever you try to do, it wasn't
good enough. So I went through all of that, and
I remember it was my last year in high school,
and I remember getting this job at Chestnut Hill Hospital

(10:51):
as a receptionist. I was the receptionist for the doctors, and.

Speaker 1 (10:56):
I remember so much. There was a lady there.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
I would say, sometimes God sent angels in your life,
and she was like an angel to me.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
Her name was Grace Moore.

Speaker 2 (11:10):
Now this lady don't know me at all, but how
God allow her to speak positive words of affirmation in
my life? Tell me how it was great? I was
good enough? All those affirmation words. This lady did so

(11:30):
much for me. And then the doctor that I was working,
and you know I wrote this in the book Faith
in the Midst of Adversity. The doctor that was there.
His name was doctor Ernest the Cruz. That man was
a God sent to me.

Speaker 1 (11:47):
He pour into me.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
I've seen this man did so much for people, just caring,
just caring about people, and.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
That did so much for me. That's a blessing.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
You know, no matter what we face in our life,
when we give it to God, when we give it
to God, we allow what we've been through to shine
through us. So other people will be able to get
the help they need. And I never know what I've

(12:22):
been through would now help so many people.

Speaker 1 (12:28):
Yeah, and then you know what, just by you sharing
at the level that you have already is helped our
viewers that's tuning in, and it's going to help anybody
else that's watching it in the future, no matter what platform.
And the show is in over one hundred and forty countries,
so ultimately this message that you're sharing with people will
go to so many different households. What advice would you

(12:51):
give to parents? Because I'm a mother of five children
and I still even today ask my children, did any
I ever do that? Ever? Drilling? And they're like, Mom,
this or whatever the case may be, that their answer is,
what can you look for as a parent? Because like
you said, you didn't even tell your mom and dad.
They didn't know, So then that means that the parents

(13:14):
are actually still exposing the children to the problem unbeknownst
to the parents. Yeah, you know, it's a lesson was
learned to me by what I went through.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
So I have two daughters, A lesson learned that I
don't allow my kids to go over anyone's house because
I don't know who was in that household. And as
I said, this was a family friend. My parents trust

(13:50):
them so much and never had no idea what I
was going through behind closed door.

Speaker 1 (13:57):
Now, so it was a lesson learned to me.

Speaker 2 (14:03):
I don't allow when my kids was much younger, and
now they're older, I never allowed them to go to
anyone's house.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
And you know what, I was so real with my kids.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
I tell them what I went through so they understand,
you know what I went through and how.

Speaker 1 (14:20):
This is real. You know, life is real. Things happen
when you at least expected. So it actually, as a parent,
it helped you put up a certain standard in your
household that this is how we'll operate as a result
of what you personally experience. Yes, but then your children

(14:43):
do they feel like they're missing out. And I'm not
just talking about your children. I'm talking about parents that
do what you do, because I've done the same thing. Literally,
my son that passed away, he hadn't stayed over anyone's
house outside of a grandparent or something like that. Ever,
the first time he was away from home was the
night he transitioned from this earth, and I felt very

(15:04):
similar to how you felt. I was like, no, you know,
you have your friends, and we have a lot they
have friends, but we weren't spending the night all of
these places, you know. But I wonder do the children
feel like they're missing out on what everybody else is
getting to do in that kind of scenario. You know what?

Speaker 2 (15:20):
I think, when you're real with your kids and tell
them what the struggles that you went through yourself, then
they understand. You know, when you tell them no, I
don't want you to go over Johnny's or Susie's house
and don't give them an explanation why that is, then
they feel, oh my god, everybody else do it. But

(15:42):
when you're real with them and tell them you know,
this is what can happen when you're in someone else,
of course I will drop you.

Speaker 1 (15:50):
Off somebody else.

Speaker 2 (15:52):
I may talk to the parents, but I don't know
who else is coming in that household overnight.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
So you know, it was fine with them.

Speaker 2 (16:00):
And when I explain what happened to me and how
you know itwa was a family friend that did what
they do to me, then they understand. Now that they
got older, they understand so much more. They said, Mom,
you know sometimes it was very sad not going to
our friend's house. But now we got older, we certainly understand.

(16:24):
So for someone that is watching, I asked you to
look over your kid, not everyone household your kid need
to go into, because you really don't know who is
in that household.

Speaker 1 (16:39):
When you send your kids over.

Speaker 2 (16:41):
They can have friends, and I always have friends over my.

Speaker 1 (16:45):
House because I know my household is sick, right right,
But the parents that are sending their kids to your household,
they don't know your household either, exact same advice that
you're giving. Then they have to also be cautious because
now technically they don't. But we know our own environment
and we know the parameters and what we have in place.

(17:06):
But it's no matter how you slice it. On both
ends of the spectrum, people may feel the same way
even when they're sending their children over to our homes.

Speaker 2 (17:15):
You know, yeah, and you know what, I even ask
some parents about that and a couple of my friends,
and why why wouldn't you send your kid over? I
didn't share my personal experience, But then I was saying
to myself, you really don't know what's going on in

(17:35):
somebody else's house. Your only faith in your own house.
So for someone that is listening to this, just take
care of your own household. You know, you know what
happened in your household, and you know, take.

Speaker 1 (17:52):
Care of your kids. They're a gift to you from God,
so take care of them. You know, they're a gift
to you from And you know, life journey is something else.
We go through so many different curves, curves in our
lives and turns then, but you have.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
To know how to navigate through them.

Speaker 1 (18:17):
All that's good. And what about if a parent, a
child does confide in a parent and you finally, like
going to your teenage years after they've exposed you to
these people over and over again because they don't realize
not to they finally you finally confide in your parents.
What happens from that point on. Do they then say,

(18:40):
what does the person get handled? Do they get this
walk scott free? What happens in a situation like that,
as much as you feel comfortable sharing, so you know,
it's a whole different country.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
So that happened when I was in the island, right
and no, I'm in the United States of America. This
was a whole different country. How do you really handle that?
You know you're not there anymore. So it was it
was difficult. It was really difficult. I had to navigate now.

(19:15):
I was in my teenager years. I was finishing high school,
and I was going on not going on my own
because I was still living with my parents. But I
had to in my mind be intentional about how I
do things.

Speaker 1 (19:37):
I had to be very intentional.

Speaker 2 (19:39):
I said in my mind that I wanted to get
past this. I put myself into therapy, you know, get
therapy so someone could talk to me. I could talk
to someone and shear the pain and the earth because
you know, my family is very close, but there's so

(20:00):
much you can't tell your own.

Speaker 1 (20:01):
Family, right, I understand, you.

Speaker 2 (20:04):
Know, it's so much you can't tell your family. So
it's good when you're going through your pain, and you're
going through your hurt to go to.

Speaker 1 (20:12):
A therapist and they will pull.

Speaker 2 (20:14):
Some stuff out of you. You have to face it
to get healed. You have to face it.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
You have to know what.

Speaker 2 (20:22):
The root of your pain really is. And it's after
I go to a therapist and they start.

Speaker 1 (20:30):
Working on me. I said something.

Speaker 2 (20:33):
The professional therapist said something to me in my book
as I wrote it, if you want to get over something,
you have to take a deep breath and tell yourself
you can do it.

Speaker 1 (20:49):
Take it, and that's pause. Say that again if you
want to take it. Agree, If you want to.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
Get over something, you have to take a deep breath,
tell yourself you can do it.

Speaker 1 (21:04):
Yes, because you know you are stuck.

Speaker 2 (21:08):
I was stuck, feeling like I was in a box,
not going anywhere, not doing anything with my life. You
can do all things through Christ that strengthed you. You
have to know that you are the head and not
the tale. You're above and not beneath. You're blessed and

(21:29):
highly favored by God. You know, you go through those
struggles in your life, know that God is with you.
He said he will never leave you nor forsake you. Now,
some people will say So if God was with me,
why do I go through all those?

Speaker 1 (21:47):
Right?

Speaker 2 (21:47):
People say that, you know, God knows the thought that
he has for you is good.

Speaker 1 (21:55):
Every thought he has for you is good. You know,
if I did.

Speaker 2 (21:59):
Not go through what I went through, I would not
know how to tell someone else how to get through it.

Speaker 1 (22:07):
And here you are today doing exactly that. So how
important is faith when it comes to going through life's
navigation and life's obstacles? How important has that been for you?
Faith take me through every challenge?

Speaker 2 (22:24):
Is the scriptures say faith is the substance of things,
hope for the evidence of things not seen. I don't
know how my struggles is going to work out, but
I have faith believe in because I trust God that
He's going to take me through it, and he took

(22:45):
me through it. I decide that I was going to
be intentional about my life, that I was going to
motivate myself, go around people that will encourage me, that
will uplight lift me, that will tell me I can
make it through anything.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
You are a conqueror. You are more of the mirth.
You are more and we can't leave that out.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
We are more than a conqueror through Christ that love us.
So we have to know and be intentional about our life.
Do not allow what you've been through to dictate who
you are today. You have to rise above that. So
whatever it takes, if it takes for you to go
to a therapist, if it takes for you to just

(23:36):
go on seminars to motivate yourself, to encourage yourself, do
whatever necessary to get you out of that.

Speaker 1 (23:47):
You are resilient in everything you do. You're resilient. You
can do it.

Speaker 2 (23:55):
Just tell yourself, I can do it, and it can
be done.

Speaker 1 (24:00):
That's really inspiring and it can It really can be done.
And especially when you're intentional about making that your focus
versus focusing on the things that have happened to us
in our past that did take a toll on us.
Is some things that take a toll on you for real,
that tear your self esteem down, make you start questioning

(24:21):
your worth and value in life, and what was it
your fault? Was it not your fault? All of these
different thoughts that try to plague you. But at the
end of the day, we are more than conquerors. And
one thing that one thing that I wanted to find
out is what if the person and I don't. I
don't want to go into your story so much only
but what if the person never even asked for forgiveness

(24:41):
or you have to face that person again? How do
you advise people to deal with situations like that? Remember,
forgiveness is not for the person. Forgiveness is for you.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
It's like you drinking poison and wishing the other person die.

Speaker 1 (24:59):
Oh my, thank god. So forgive the comments in the
comments section to come on with y'all. Get this right here.

Speaker 2 (25:08):
Forgiveness is for you. So you have to have forgiveness
to even go on further in your life.

Speaker 1 (25:18):
You have to forgive because you know what happened.

Speaker 2 (25:21):
The person that's the perpetrator that did something to you,
it's going on with their life.

Speaker 1 (25:29):
They having a ball in their life.

Speaker 2 (25:31):
Here you are, as I said, sometimes fear cause hate,
and then hate become suffering. Internally, you're killing your own
self because you're holding onto that person that did you wrong.

Speaker 1 (25:50):
So let it go, let them go.

Speaker 2 (25:54):
Don't allow them to keep your captive, because that's what
forgiveness is. They keep you captive in a box and
you're that free.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
They're living their lives. Leave them their best life while
you are killing your own self, so let it go,
you know.

Speaker 2 (26:17):
And as I said, I keep on saying, go to
a therapist because it depends on what the pain is. Right,
Sometimes it's hard to let it cold because this person
it frecks such great pain on you.

Speaker 1 (26:33):
So sometimes it's hard. But you have to be intentional.

Speaker 2 (26:37):
You have to be intentional about it that you're not
gonna let them keep you captive.

Speaker 1 (26:44):
That's good, that's some good advice. I hope y'all are
taking notes. Do not let somebody else who's living their
best life keep you captive because they don't ask for forgiveness.
Forgive them regardless, so that it's not literally eating you
up on the inside. And stress is real. Stress is
so you have to stress off of you cannot go

(27:07):
through life issues and navigating all of the challenges. As
Charmaine said, she was for those of you that are
just tuning in. This young This young lady was from
another in the Islands in Jamaica, was molested at a
young age. And guess what you see this beautiful smile
and glow on her face because she was very intentional
about moving forward in her life and not letting the

(27:31):
person that violated her steal her joy. Yes, And I
think that's something that's easier said than done because people say, oh,
just move forward, move on, but there are some people
that are like, that's easy for you to say, but
how do you really do that? And so I want
you to share any thoughts on getting the therapy is

(27:53):
one thing, any other thoughts you'd recommend for people to
move forward?

Speaker 2 (27:58):
Get a therapy that you need around yourself with positive people.
That is very very important. You have to surround yourself
with people that are going to.

Speaker 1 (28:09):
Pour into you. You know, there's three people that you
need to have in your life.

Speaker 2 (28:14):
Someone that's on your level, someone that you pour into,
and someone that pour into you. When you have those
three people in your life, you are balanced. You have
a balanced life because there's someone always pouring into you
and you're pouring out to them or to whoever that

(28:36):
need the help. So it's good to have those three
people in your life. You can live through it. Listen,
God is no respect to person. I wasn't that good
that he helped me through this, but through my faith,
believe in that he can.

Speaker 1 (28:53):
He helped me through it. You can have faith, he said.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
If you have faith as a mustered you could move.
Mountain must've so small you can hardly see it.

Speaker 1 (29:06):
So if you have faith as a mustard seed, you
can move mountain.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
God will help you, he said, acts, and you shall
receive press.

Speaker 1 (29:17):
Down, shaken together and running over. He wants you to
ask and for help. He will give you the help
you need.

Speaker 2 (29:27):
And I'll tell you, with God help, it's more than
everybody else that can help you. The therapist might tell
you something, but when you ask God for help, he
will take that pain away from you.

Speaker 1 (29:40):
And it's when I realize that God is my health.
I was free.

Speaker 2 (29:47):
When I realized that God is my help. He set
me free. That pain that I was feeling within me
went away because I trusted him.

Speaker 1 (30:00):
I believe in him.

Speaker 2 (30:01):
I cast my tears upon him because he cares so
much about me.

Speaker 1 (30:06):
He cares about everything, everything, every situation, everything you're facing.
If you're asking for help, he's willing to help you.
Whoo y'all Okay, I mean again. I think that we're
hearing so many great nuggets already from Charmagne Thompson about
how to navigate life's issues, and I see some of

(30:28):
you that are on I'm super excited about it. We're
going to come back and come to some of your comments.
I just want to take a moment because we have
one of the people that's in the studio audience in
our VIP section over there, which all of y'all are
upp by the way, but anyway, I just want to
make sure you know that she has a very special
summit coming up, and especially when we're dealing with mental
health and we're going to be talking about mental health

(30:50):
with you being a mental health aid over the course
of some of your life. When we come back from
this commercial break, take heed and learn from doctor lotus
Chet for an upcoming son that she has taking place soon.

Speaker 4 (31:01):
Calling all men, it's time to stand up and show
up in Patterson, New Jersey for the Ignite Your Life
for Life summit themed When Men Exhale. There are only
fifty seats. It is a first come, first serve basis.
Get your tickets now for only forty nine dollars and

(31:22):
ninety seven cents. See you there.

Speaker 1 (31:30):
You all do not want to miss When Men Exhale.
That's happening, and it's coming up really soon September twelfth,
And you may be watching this as a replay in
the near future because I'm forever replaying an episode, So
if it's not at that time that you're rewatching this show,
just make sure you follow doctor Lotus for Schee ignites
you and she will be able to share whatever else

(31:51):
she has going on. But thank you Doctor Lotus forche
for being one of our episode sponsors today right here
on the Kim Jacobs Show. All right, So when we're
talking about mental health, because the things that you've endured, Chermain,
it requires some strong resolve. Strong mental health is really literally,

(32:12):
so you're a mental health aid as well, and I
would like for you to just talk about how you've
integrated your faith and your mental health with helping other
people that have had to deal with some of life's challenges.

Speaker 2 (32:25):
So you know, it's through your challenges that you help
a lot of people, and you should want to help
a lot of people through your challenges. So I put
together a woman conference every year. I was led to

(32:46):
put this conference together the year of COVID and thought
no one was going to come to this conference, but
God allowed eighty five people to come that same year
of COVID.

Speaker 1 (33:00):
And it has been growing every year.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
So I put this summit topower ladies that they can
do all things. So my summit is moving forward knowing
your purpose. And you know, knowing your purpose is very important.

(33:23):
Know why you're here, know your why. You know why
are you here. God has put purpose and destiny inside
of you. He created you with purpose. So all these
stuff that you go through in your life is setting
you up for greatness. It's setting your life up to

(33:44):
so you can shine. God can shine through you, so
others may see. Mental health is real. A lot of
us go through so many challenges in our life, so
many pain and hurt, and we feel like we cannot
make it through it.

Speaker 1 (34:02):
But there is hope for you. There is hope.

Speaker 2 (34:06):
You're not alone in this. There are so many people
that's going through the same thing. So know that even
if you're going through some mental challenges, that you're not
alone in this. You have purpose, you have destiny within you.
You can make it through this and you're not alone.

Speaker 1 (34:27):
You're not alone if you have Charmaine Thompson. So all
you have to do is connect with her and you
definitely are destined to feel better at the conclusion of
that conversation. So I encourage you and we're going to
talk a lot more. But I do want to take
a moment to just encourage you to follow her on
her Instagram channel at Charmcare and then on Facebook at
Charmaine Thompson. So make sure you stay connected with her

(34:50):
on her social media platforms. Again, on Instagram it's at
Charmcare and on Facebook it's at Charmaine C. A. R.
M Ai N. E. Thompson. I spell it out because
I have audio podcast listeners that don't get a chance
to see the broadcast, so we're always communicating in a
lot of different ways. I do want to take a
moment to just thank you, C to your media network

(35:12):

countries over three hundred of so social media platforms, you
name it. It's happening through CTR Media Network, and The
Kim Jacob Show is blessed to be a part of
that platform. We're usually live Monday through Friday at eleven

(35:34):
so that we can make sure we still bring balance

encourage you if you have not partnered with the Kim
Jacob Show. How do you do that? People often say, Kim,
I want to be a blessing to your platform. I

want to see you be able to get the things accomplished,

(35:57):

And you can join our membership programs as well. So
thank you for those that already support our broadcasts and
allowing us to come to you right in the comfort
of your own home every weekday. All right, So, Charmain,
I am eager to know when people are dealing with

(36:41):
a mental health crisis, but they don't. They don't even
consider themselves having any crisis. How do people become aware
that they are having health issues? When from a self
awareness perspective, it's not. It's just like you're not talking
about me, about yourself, but you're definitely not talking about me.

(37:02):
So how do people even recognize that they need the help?

Speaker 2 (37:07):
You know? So I say this because sometimes people that
are going through mental health challenges sometimes think they're all right.

Speaker 1 (37:19):
But you as a friend, you as a friend seeing.

Speaker 2 (37:23):
Your loved one or your friend is doing something outside
that is not normal for them to do. They're withdrawing
from things that they usually do. They don't want to
be around anyone anymore. You know, those are indication that

(37:44):
something is not going on right with them. And you know,
sometimes it's not for us to want to tell them
what to do and how to do it.

Speaker 1 (37:55):
But this is what you can do.

Speaker 2 (37:58):
You can as a friend and seeing their going through
certain things in their life. Go over their house, you
see their house in shambles, help them. You see dishes
and all these stuff all over the house and stuff.
Just go over and help them, and you know, just

(38:20):
ask them simple question, how are you feeling? Is everything okay?
It's the way you approach things with people that are
going through mental challenge because they don't want to think
that they're getting crazy. First of all, right, right, you know,
so it's good to talk to them in a second way,

(38:42):
you know, so they feel comfortable telling you know, I'm
going through certain things. And when you're going through mental challenges,
it's hard.

Speaker 1 (38:52):
It's rough.

Speaker 2 (38:54):
And I see through a lot of people having loved
one that died, yes, and they don't know how to
navigate through that because here go, my loved one was
around me and now they're no longer here.

Speaker 1 (39:10):
And that's regardless of the age. People really hard time. Yeah,
it's a difficult time.

Speaker 2 (39:16):
Or you maybe lost your job that you've been on
the job for twenty years and they lay you off.
You can go on oppression, you can't, So mental challenges
is real. Be aware of your loved one when they're
going through these difficult time and you can always fix it,

(39:39):
but you need to be there for them, and that
is very important. You cannot fix it because it's going
to be up to them to get the help they
need right right, So you can't just be there for them.

Speaker 1 (39:54):
That's good, that's really good advice. And being there for
a person from my perspective as the beat doctor, is
being there the way that the person needs you to
be there. So it's like to just be there for somebody,
and it's not how they need you to be there
is offensive to them because day I needed that. I
don't need that. I don't need you to tell me

(40:15):
to move on, get past the death of my son
or what. I don't need that. That's not the kind
of help I need. You know, I need prayer, I
need some soothing words or knowing that if I came
when I came back to church, that is, people aren't like, well,
what it made you come back to church? So quick?
What church is where I need to be. I want
to be in church so I can get not the

(40:39):
help you need, the assembling of myself with other believers
and like minded people that believe and what I believe in,
you know, So I need to surround myself in situations
like that. So I love I love that advice. It's
helping people. If you see something, then making sure that
you step in and help as best as they will
allow you to. Because not everybody I want you to

(41:00):
come in and just start washing your dishes. But if
you say you're a help in this regard because I'm
here for you, right, that's good? All right, really good? Well,
I see some studio audience comments too, And I want
to take a moment to give you a chance to
say hello to some of these people. Grace said, hey, Charmae.

(41:21):
Grace Moore said, hey Charmae. Okay, let's see I see
all of your comments. Oh, doctor Carlin. Colin Clark says,
we are more than conquerors. Yes, yes, yes, Doctor Lotus,
Chet says, take notes, and she said note takers on
money makers. That's what she that's her quote. See. Thank

(41:43):
you so much for sharing and caring. Thank you doctor
Lotus Forchet for all that you do. You're making a
big difference globally in this in this whole world, another
great show. Thank you so much for tuning in and
your comments, and thank you all that are tuning in.
I see all of you, whether you're commenting or not.
I can see you, but I don't get to see us.
Oh hey, Dick and Wayne Man, nice to see you

(42:04):
on here. I see all of you. I just can't.
I would have to have my head down the whole
time scrolling through acknowledging everybody. But I see you all.
Please make sure you put some comments and I'll be
able to pop them on the screen because I'll see
them over here. On the side. So, Charmaine, thinking about you,
you wear a lot of different hats. You're a minister,
or radio personality, a women's advisor, or a business founder.

(42:27):
How are you balancing all of those hats and where
is it coming from? What is it stemming from? This
fueling you? You're finder.

Speaker 2 (42:36):
You know, a lot of people ask me how I
do this all. But it's a love for people. I
love people.

Speaker 1 (42:44):
I love to.

Speaker 2 (42:45):
Share my experience with them. I love to see people
shine and do great things for themselves because you know,
it's when people shine, you feel as though you're shining.
So I love to see people shine. I love to
pour things into people. When I pour into people, it

(43:06):
feels to me like I got one thousand dollars or
more money, you know, Because I feel good when I
see people shine, when I see people progress and do
great things with themselves. So it's a love for people.
I love people and I love to see people shine.

Speaker 1 (43:24):
Yeah, are you sure we're not twins? Because I think
I could be like a twin of yours. Because every
scripture you were saying, I could finish your sentence. I
was like, Oh my gosh, who am I talking to myself?
This is crazy. I'm loving this conversation. You know.

Speaker 2 (43:39):
Recently, recently I put a podcast together. It was on
me a month ago that I need to put a
podcast together to allow women to have a voice.

Speaker 1 (43:56):
Yes, do I allow.

Speaker 2 (43:58):
Ladies to speak their truth, allow ladies to speak their story.
And I tell you I had two episodes so far
and it was richly blessed. And I said, you know,
to God be the glory, because it's time for us
to come out of the closet, come out of that

(44:20):
box and start shining and telling our story. How God
brought us through different things in our life and now
we are overcomers. We can do all things through Christ.

Speaker 1 (44:33):
That's strengthen us. We got this, We got this it now.
How can people tune into your podcast and follow you?
I know if they follow you on social media where
they automatically see some of these things.

Speaker 2 (44:46):
So on, my podcast is on YouTube Women.

Speaker 1 (44:52):
Of Power Charm Care, So you can join.

Speaker 2 (44:57):
The podcast on YouTube, Spotify. iHeartRadio and it's all there,

Speaker 3 (45:14):
All right, I'm typing this out an Apple Podcasts and Apple.

Speaker 1 (45:20):
I am so excited about this. Apple. You know what,
I'm really a big believer that we can all celebrate
each other. And yes, I love that one quote that says,
flowers never compete with other flowers. They just let each
other bloom. All of these beautiful flowers and a ray
of colors and all going in between each other and

(45:41):
just going growing in their own way. I love when
I see another flower bloom. So I'm so happy for you,
and I'm gonna put this over here everybody for y'all

sure you subscribe to Charmaine Thompson's YouTube channel right away.
And I'm gonna make sure I subscribe to Today for sure,
and I cannot wait to hear the podcast. Oh, speaking
of which, I do need to go ahead and tell
everybody this too. It'd be helpful for y'all to know
that I do a six week training teaching people. Some

(46:22):
people are seasoned, other people are just starting out, don't
have the name of their show or anything. They're literally
starting from scratch, and we go on a six week
journey to teach you how to start your own virtual show.
From scratch, everything that I've learned from being with PBS
and the Word Network and being one of the balance
experts on a local NBC affiliate, writing some of these books,

(46:46):
traveling with Les Brown around the country, teaching people how
to share their stories and pulling out the greatness, and
then blog all of these wonderful things. Right, I pour
all of this stuff into you in a six week
training and I take only five students. We're getting started
in the next two weeks, so you definitely want to
let me know if you would like to be one
of those five students. And I can pretty much promise

(47:09):
you that it's going to be a journey to remember
and you'll be ready to launch your own show at
the end of the six week train. So make sure
you reach out to me seven oh four nine four
four three five three four or email me Kim Jacobs
Show at gmail dot com. I'm doing my own commercials
instead of going to commercial rate. You can do that.

(47:30):
You know that, man should include that in your show.
Do that you learned someone hit to day? You're like,
all right, so what else with charm care? We didn't
talk about charmcare yet. I'd love us to talk about
that what inspired you to create charm Care and tell
us more about it and how it is impacting women

(47:52):
around the world.

Speaker 2 (47:54):
So charm Care is a platform that encourage and motivate
ladies to be the best version of themselves. You know,
itswa was the year that I went to Africa in
twenty nineteen that I put this charm Care global platform together,

(48:15):
that I was able to inspire and motivate people.

Speaker 1 (48:19):
All over the world.

Speaker 2 (48:22):
Some of my family that I adopt is from Africa,
and you know, I support Africa in a lot of ways.

Speaker 1 (48:31):
I also support Jamaica.

Speaker 2 (48:35):
I go back to Jamaica every other year and support
my country.

Speaker 1 (48:40):
The kids that are less fortunate.

Speaker 2 (48:44):
I go back and support them in financial gifts, scholarship
and stuff like that.

Speaker 1 (48:51):
So that's where that platform comes from. That's excellent. And
I've never been. I've never been to Jamaica, just so
you know, so when I do go, i'd love to
be able to come go. One of the times you're going,
let me know it's a Kim, let's roll because we
like your twin is coming. I'm coming. I'm coming out there.
I'm gonna call you Kim because we're going to Jamaica.

(49:11):
I have never been, and everybody loves Jamaica, and I'm like,
why have not been to Jamaica yet? So maybe it
was because I was waiting for Charmaine to give me
the real royal treatment.

Speaker 2 (49:20):
Come, come, all right, well it's gonna happen, Kim, It's
gonna happen.

Speaker 1 (49:25):
I can't I actually can't wait. I'm excited about it.
I look forward to it. So please let's communicate about that. Look,
we haven't I told you? Remember I told you backstage?
Didn't I tell you backstage how it was going to be?
And it's like that, right, Remember what I was saying,
conversation that it changes everything when you're just having a
regular conversation.

Speaker 2 (49:42):
Right, That's right, That's right, because I can say that
means you're comfortable, Kim. I also wanted to tell people
that you could tune in Monday, Friday and Saturday to
Philly Favor. It's a that you could put on your phone,
Philly Favor. I do Inspirational on Monday, Friday and Saturday

(50:09):
with Brother Marcus.

Speaker 1 (50:11):
Okay, Monday, Win Friday and Monday and Saritay Philly Favor.

Speaker 3 (50:34):
S oh phil Philly, Yes, oh Phillies like p H
I L L Y s Philly's favor. Yes, Okay, on Monday,
Friday Day, Saturday.

Speaker 1 (50:53):
So I'm gonna say, check out. See y'all should be
typing in the comments section. I'm over here doing all
the administrative work and I'm trying to host and do
all the most but we can't miss this information, some
good stuff. Check out, Charmaine. I'm gonna pop it on
the screen in a minute, Charmaine Thompson. At what time?

Speaker 2 (51:11):
Well, it's come on on Mondays two to six, five.

Speaker 1 (51:17):
To Oh you know what, I'm just gonna say, Monday,
Friday and Saturday, y'all go doing those days.

Speaker 2 (51:23):
And y'all they could look on my Facebook page, they'll
see the information that they need.

Speaker 1 (51:30):
So see, there's so many different hats that you wear.
And this goes hand in hand with what I was
what I was saying as far as when you're trying
to balance all of these different roles and responsibilities, how
do you know which one is the one that should
take precedent over the other from your perspective because you
wear a lot of hats. I wear a lot of hats,
so I know I can relate.

Speaker 2 (51:52):
You know, when God gives you, it's something, and I
believe what all that I do is a gift from God.

Speaker 1 (52:00):
It doesn't seem like I'm doing so much either. Does
seem like I'm doing so much. As my daughter said,
oh my god, Mom, you do so much. What else
are you going to do?

Speaker 2 (52:15):
But it doesn't seem so much for me because I'm
in love with what I do to impact, to motivate
and encourage people.

Speaker 1 (52:24):
Again, we're twins. I love it because I have people
say the same thing and I'm like, what this is like?
God will not put more on you, in my opinion,
than you can bear. And if he's giving me whatever
gifts and talents, then I think that he really expects
for me to use them, not to just bury them.
So I'm like salt, when we salt the earth, you
can't just go. You gotta spread it all over and

(52:47):
get the soul going and really be a bright light
in somebody else's That's it. That's it. I love it.
I think I'm smiling more on this episode than I
have smiled. I smile already, but you have my cheeks
burning today. I say today tonight because again, whatever country

(53:07):
you're looking at it from, but by all means it
may be at different time zone. But Charmaine, the other
thing that I wanted to make sure we cover tonight
is making sure that and I say tonight, but you're
gonna be seeing this at our eleven o'clock episode two,
So just bear with me, okay. But faith in the
midst of adversity, faith over fear. What do you want
people to walk away once they read this book? What

(53:28):
do you want them to walk away knowing?

Speaker 2 (53:32):
I want them to know that they can live through anything.
There is nothing that's impossible for God to do for
you in the midst of adversity.

Speaker 1 (53:44):
God will take you through it. So live through it.

Speaker 2 (53:47):
And trust God with all your heart and lean not
to your own understanding.

Speaker 1 (53:54):
In all your ways.

Speaker 2 (53:56):
Acknowledge God, and E will direct your path. So I
want people to walk away knowing that they can do
all things through Christ.

Speaker 1 (54:06):
That strengthening them. If you're discouraged, I'm telling you get
this book even if you're not discouraged. If you are encouraged,
but you just want to have a great book in
your library. Hot we have house guests that come over,
and I know in my house people will grab a
book and take it to the room that they're going
to be in and they'll read the book. And so

(54:27):
have some of these tools and resources right in your home.
Give it us gifts. Holidays will be coming up soon.
How about gifting faith in the midst of adversity, Faith
over fear. How about gifting that book? And then guess what.
She's also the author of Words of Life, a fifty
two week faith inspirational journal journal. I would like for

(54:49):
you to talk to us about what this journal is
all about as well.

Speaker 2 (54:55):
So this journal is really about your life story. In
this journal, I allow you to journalize different topics that's
going on in your life, different areas that you're struggling with.

Speaker 1 (55:11):
I give a.

Speaker 2 (55:12):
Point to it, and have you journalize your personal story.

Speaker 1 (55:20):
Guys. I mean, this is like, at least for us,
it's a dream come true. Because my mom she loves journaling,
So she'll get like just a black binder if the
book doesn't have notepages, she has her own binder per
book because she always wants to take notes and on
what she's reading. So what you've done is just made
life so much easier in this book or journal, because

(55:44):
it's like a whole notebook for you to just free
flow with, almost like a conversation starter, just something for
you to get going, and then you get to take
it away and customize it to your own life. Y'all.
You can get this book on Amazon because it's on Amazon.
Can they get an autograph copy from you, Shermain, Yes,

(56:05):
they can from there.

Speaker 2 (56:07):
They can hit me up on Facebook if they need
a copy and I'll send it personal to them, you know.
In this book, I just wanted to say something about
this book. In the beginning of this book, I wrote,
I am and you know, affirmation early in the morning

(56:29):
when you get out of bed is very important. So
in the beginning of this book, I write, I am qualified, equipped, blessed, confident, free, empowered,
redeem secure, talented, determined, anointed, forgiving, and I am accepted

(56:53):
by God.

Speaker 1 (56:55):
That's yeah, because if you believe all of those things,
guess like, you can't fail even when like it's some
failing situations, that's obviously they're real. So you can't downplay
those real situations that we've all experienced, but if you

(57:17):
trust in the Lord, He's going to get us to
the other side of the equation. And so, really, what,
in your opinion, what would you want your legacy to be,
because you're going to be remembered for so many things
based on what I've heard tonight or today. I keep
saying tonight. I can't help it, even though y'all.

Speaker 3 (57:36):
Episode, wherever you're from, wherever day, whatever day and time,
it is.

Speaker 1 (57:40):
The point is what do you want to be remembered for? Encourager?

Speaker 3 (57:47):
You are, Yeah, encourager. I give you your flowers right
now today on the Jacob Show because you are more
than they say, a conqueror.

Speaker 1 (57:58):
You are more than an encourager for sure.

Speaker 3 (58:00):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (58:02):
I love it all right, Well, is there anything that
we didn't talk about? I think we talked about a lot,
but maybe just also talk a little bit about and
I know we getting ready to end here, but just
talk about how how your resiliency has impacted your daughters,
because that's you know, you talked about your family. So
we didn't put any pictures up, but I do want

(58:22):
to at least hear how you feel like it's helped
impact their lives.

Speaker 2 (58:26):
So my two daughters is a joy to my life.
I didn't talk about how the doctors told me that
I wasn't able to have.

Speaker 1 (58:38):
Kids, so they were a gift to me.

Speaker 2 (58:43):
You know, in my early years of being married, the
doctor told me I couldn't have kids, and that was
something something for me and my husband. But after two
and a half years, I got pregnant with my first daughter,
and then five years after I got pregnant with my
second daughter.

Speaker 1 (59:03):
So they are a joy to my life.

Speaker 2 (59:07):
I hope my legacy of being an encourager and a
motivator will carry on and I can see that in
both of their lives.

Speaker 1 (59:19):
Your daughters, yes, and my lovely husband. I'm so excited.
You know, I was a smooth I went on one
of your pages. I was like, I'm fine. I said,
I'm a fine photo. I am gifted.

Speaker 2 (59:33):
This were my lovely daughters, Charnelle and Vanessa, and my
handsome Charnelle and Vanessa. Charnelle is in the red here
and Vanessa the dark here. They are my pride and joy.
And I pray that everything that I do that it

(59:53):
will inspire them and motivate them to be the best
version of themselves.

Speaker 1 (59:58):
Oh and then your husband. Tell us about your husband.
Oh my god, this my husband is a God send
to me. God knows what.

Speaker 2 (01:00:09):
I need when I needed it, and he put him
in my life where I've been married for twenty ninety years.
We're going to be married November the eleventh, will be
thirty years.

Speaker 1 (01:00:20):
And I tell you I'll marry the guy again, a
love of my life. I'm so happy. And you know what,
doctor Colin Clark, you know he's been him and his
wife have been married I think almost forty or forty two.
Oh my god. Yeah, yes. So marriage is so critically

(01:00:43):
important and how necessary it is, and how much God
loves and adorees marriages that can just stay the course.
What a beautiful blessing. I love love. I love love.
So please pray that I get married again, because I'm
married received I don't.

Speaker 1 (01:03:38):
So keep on doing what you do, Kim, Thank you
so much. Thank you all. And one way that you
all can support is knowing that this is going to
be marked ten years for my son, that transitioned Gabriel
Michael Jacobs, and we started Gabe's Hard Foundation ten years ago.
So this year October eighteen. October eighteen is our ten

(01:04:02):
year five K walk. I am encouraging you if you
can make your way to Charlotte, North Carolina, or it's
going to be in Concord, North Carolina. Please make sure
that you are here. And if your organization that you
manage or company that you manage would like to donate funds,
match the current donations that we have. We will be

(01:04:25):
purchasing defibrillators and we're going to be raffling definitely one
or so off at the actual five K walk. But
if you want to be one of the sponsors that
do that, go to Gabsheardfoundation dot org donate let us know. Hey,
I'd like to be able to have a defibrillator contribution
made because it helps paramedics get to the to the

(01:04:47):
situation so that life can be hopefully extended. We all
gonna go when God says we're going to go, period.
But if you have a portable defibrillator in place, it
might just extend that person time on this earth with
their loved ones. So make sure you all let us
know by visiting Gabe's Heart dot org, Gabe's Heart Foundation,

(01:05:09):
or Gabe's Heart but Gabe's Heartfoundation dot org and you
can donate there and we'll look forward to seeing you
