This episode isn’t Part 2 of the 1K Special, but it could feel like it. On my morning walk, I reflected on the episode while at the airport, listening back to the audio with Deion and Maya — and the answers I gave. I’ve always said honesty is the best policy, because I truly believe it and live by it. But I realized that calling what I was feeling “heartbreak” was just the easy way out. The truth? I was silencing my real thoughts and emotions. I had to check myself on a few things!
How many times have you acted like you didn’t care, even when it was eating you up inside? And what did you gain from it? Usually nothing but feeling worse. You’ll never heal from what you don’t acknowledge — and that’s the truth. Caring deeply isn’t a flaw, it’s a gift.
Words have power. Say what you mean and mean what you say. Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and when we choose honesty, we choose growth. That’s what I want this platform to be: a mirror for your reflection, a reminder that your voice matters, and that healing starts with truth.
