Tonight at 8 pm on Love Is Power, the topic is Why Love Yourself. I truly believe, when people start to love themselves more each day, it’s amazing how their lives get better. They feel better. They get the jobs they want. They have the money they need. Their relationships either improve, or the negative ones dissolve and new ones begin. It’s a very simple premise—loving yourself. I’ve been criticized for being too simplistic, and I have found that the simple things are usually the most profound. Someone said to me recently, “You gave me the most wonderful gift—you gave me the gift of myself.” So many of us hide from ourselves and we don’t even know who we are. We don’t know what we feel, we don’t know what we want. Life is a voyage of self-discovery. To me, to be enlightened is to go within and to know who and what we really are, and to know that we have the ability to change for the better by loving and taking care of ourselves. The Power that created this incredible Universe has often been referred to

Fellana L. Randall, MFTI, is a Registered Marriage & Family Therapist Intern & Relationship Expert that focuses on the challenges that WOC encounter in work & relationships. Due to stigma, WOC often don't have access to mental health support that may be needed during times of emotional pain. WOC too often feel both invisible & exotified, feel forced towards self-comparison, feel undervalued & demoralized through experiencing racial and/or gender microaggressions, and have a high tendency to find themselves making compromises to their values. Her goal is to help you overcome insecurities, improve your sense of self-worth, provide a sense of belonging, & offer therapeutic tools.

Most of all, you'll want to find a provider willing to work with you to meet the needs of your child.

Today on "Love Is Power", topic “Celebrities Are Human Too”. Have you ever wanted to be a celebrity? There is a saying “be careful what you ask for you just might get it”. Have you ever heard, “all that glitters is not gold”? How about, “you think the grass is greener on the other side”. Being a celebrity can be a blessing or it can be a curse. I have seen people faint, cry, scream, yell and curse. I wish people would realize that celebrities are human and not idols. They have feelings, they get scared, they cry, they hurt, they get sick. A lot of them work very hard some overwork and some have no lives. Many are not happy and do not have real love or loving people around them. Some are depressed, many are on drugs.   Creed Love Is Power, I AM LOVE, I LOVE MYSELF, Love Is My Power, I will use my power to heal and better myself. I WILL share MY POWER WITH those who are worthy. No one can take MY power from me, No ONE CAN DIMINISH THE POWER THAT MY CREATOR has given me.  I know WHAT I AM, I AM LOVE, I

Hypnosis is the process of getting a person relaxed and giving them suggestions that may or may not help them to get their desired results.  However, some people still associate hypnosis with demonic or satanic rituals like they may have seen in some B-Rated Horror flick.   However, hypnosis was actually birthed from the brains of psychologists and researchers, and while its origins are tarnished by decades of disrespect, it's now making its way back into the mainstream with dignity. Podcast Guest, Tim Miller, a former Division 1 Head Football Coach from LaSalle University has been hypnotizing America on stage for years and soon will be seen on television with the launch of his own family's Hollywood Reality Show. Tune in Sunday, October 15th at 6 PM EST to hear Tim demystify the myths of hypnosis.

Love Is Power, Topic "Sing to Me", is dedicated to all the Mother and daughters out there that have great relationships, this is also to the mother’s and daughter’s that do not have great relationships but wish we they did. This is also for the soon to be mothers. Mother-daughter relationships are complex and diverse. Some mothers and daughters are best friends. Others talk once a week. Some see each other weekly; others live in different states or countries. Some spar regularly. Some avoid conflict. Others talk through everything and undoubtedly, there’s a hint of all these things in most relationships. There also are ups and downs, no matter how positive (or prickly) the relationship. Understanding a Mother-Daughter Conflict sees three primary complaints that daughters have about their moms: Moms try to parent them and are overly critical and demanding.

Learning how to study at the college level is a major transition for most freshmen because of the freedom and less structure of mom and dad telling them when to study, eat, sleep, etc.  So it’s important for students to get prepared while they are still at home in high school as it will make the transition to college smoother. In high school, the learning schedule is highly structured, and teachers are in charge of making sure students stay on task. In college, students will not have this type of hands-on instruction. College professors will give a syllabus at the beginning of each semester, and students will be in charge of making sure they stay on task. Making good grades in school is important, however, the main goal of studying should be to learn and retain information. To do this, you must develop effective study skills and learning strategies.  Dr. Stephen Jones, author of three books including "Seven Secrets of How to Study" will give us some tips on understanding the essential skills a student needs

Today on Love Is Power, the topic is “Fake Smile”. Do you ever feel like you are always smiling but it is not genuine?Reason being you have a lot of pain and suffering going on inside of you. Instead of getting the help you just put on your mask that has a smile on it. People never know you are a ticking time bomb because you are a good actor or actress. Can you tell when someone is shooting you a fake smile? Even though fake smiles are easy enough to see through, we all still do it, attempting to show others just how happy we are when we're really feeling less than fantastic. Unfortunately, every smile we fake makes us a tiny bit more miserable. Let us know better so we can do better, shall we? Creed Love Is Power, I AM LOVE, I LOVE MYSELF, Love Is My Power, I will use my power to heal and better myself. I WILL share MY POWER WITH those who are worthy. No one can take MY power from me, No ONE CAN DIMINISH THE POWER THAT MY CREATOR has given me.  I know WHAT I AM, I AM LOVE, I AM LIGHT, I AM POWERFUL,
