Flow with Lo’Groove vs Green PasturesManaging convictions, free will and holding onto God's chat about your life?Join the club, (pun intended). There are moments I battle with thoughts like 'What is the point?', 'What could really happen?', and 'Do i even care about this for real?' . It's obviously going to take you more than one conversation to stick to it. So in this episode, I bring you into my chat and personal experience around Groove and Green Pastures, truly revisiting converstions I've had with God about this. An episode about me, for you.

Even though our intentions can look dazzling and we represent ourselves well, it can get tiring to constantly feel like you are auditioning people and being auditioned to be in relationship. Super tiring.
SO i decided to share 4 Soft Truths about Friendship that I hope help you navigate the real root of your friendship fatigue. Instead of spending a lot of time focusing on the feeling and it's dampening elements, I take a different approach and chat about ways y...2025-04-1240 min
Flow with Lo’Lizzo reneges being fat? Let's talkA new week, a new episode, Every Thursday 10AM EST.
Lizzo recently posted pictures of her 'defacing' her before pictures. You know...before... when she was fat. But it seems like that is an era in her life she has no interest in entertaining because she isn't anymore?
Either way, this episode is a chat about that. What do such acts do on the other side of self-expression and making a statement? What happens when you evolve into someone that does not need a particular audience ANYMORE, even though you may not have explicity asked fo...2025-03-1331 min
Flow with Lo’Identity PoliticsHappy new week My People! Identity politics was a phrase I heard around me so often! Up until I got to studying, observing, and literally living the reality of my identity and politics being dependent on each other. A relationship that was subtle and unspoken about has become a persuasive tool in politics and our survival.
You know I always drop a gem through my own experience with how this payed out and the ways I capitalized my education & the American political landscape's usual approach, which ultimately led me to consistently scoring a 4.0 grade average.

Flow with Lo’Versions of God (a discrete list)MY PEOPLE! I'm happy you're tuning in for this episode because it is such an important chat and I wanted to have it with you.
A lot of the time, when people are yapping about their troubles however big or small, it is cathartic. You get to vent and also connect with others that may be going through the same thing or just troubles of their own. Ultimately, those are the main good things. However, at the end of it all what do you do with that? All of it?
On this episode, I chat...2025-02-1350 minFlow with Lo’Girlhood HealthGirlhood and Health. Yes, I 100% believe that woman go thru multiple puberties because WHY did I think I had my body figured out at 21 years old?

Flow with Lo’Moses & MeI've been reading the book of Exodus after avoiding the Old Testament for what felt like forever. I naturally stumbled upon the genesis of Moses and the call God had on his life. However, there is so much more detail I was not privy to when I was younger. Children stories omitted Moses' shortcoming like his speech problem, the fact that he went to Pharoah a total of 10 times! 10 TIMES!? I don't remember trying something so many times. This detail in the story, along with many others, had me reflecting and seeing Moses in Me. The random feelings of...2024-08-1336 min

Generally, we tend to run from things and this manifests itself differently and for different reasons. I know I used to run from entire provinces when I felt overwhelmed by what I was experiencing in that space and at that time.

On this episode, I get into a new term i stumbled upon - postfeminism. I HAD to rope you all in because I'm not too sure it's a thing or at least, I don't think it should be. As a day one feminist... ANYWAY, that inevitably triggered a conversation about my own journey with being feminine and my so-called "Feminine Awakening".
