Cafe Conversations With Lady D.

I'm known for my relationship conversation episodes, like, "Inside The Mind of Love" and my friend EJ, is known for his wise opinions about relationships period. This was a long awaited conversation for me, and it was absolutely awesome to have. If you are a woman, and you are in a relationship or, just starting a relationship, or maybe you've always wondered how some men view relationships. Which ever it may be, you're either gonna appreciate this conversation, or find yourself talking back to your listening device, lol. THIS, episode was one hell of a CONVERSATION, lol.  ***This episode was recorded and EJ's crib, so pardon the background, but by no means at all, was the quality of this conversation affected*** --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cafeconversations/message

This is an introduction to the up and coming episodes on mental health series. After experiencing my own battle with severe clinical anxiety and depression I decided to use my platform to advocate for those who suffer daily in silence with their mental health, emotional health and their spiritual health. The next few episodes are intended to educate and shed some much needed light on this often unrecognizable disorder in the hopes of helping others recover and heal as well as cope as the battle continues. I’ll discuss the different types of depression and the similarities, the different types of treatments, coping skills and understanding that although you are different you are normal in how you feel. All this and much more inside Cafe Conversations. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cafeconversations/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cafeconversations/support

This episode is a follow-up episode of a previous episode I did entitled the "Darkest Place". One of the listeners asked if I was gonna do a follow-up on my recovery and how I was coming along since opening up about having a mental break down, so here it is! In this episode I share what I've learned about myself while in therapy, as for as my own fails in regards to not taking proper care of myself. I talk about the fear, anger, low self-esteem and lack of confidence I developed within myself and what I am doing to correct these things so that they never happen again, starting with boundaries and lots of self care. I hope that those of you who listen to this episode can walk away with something that helps you to recognize broken character flaws within yourself that are in need or repair or corrections.  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cafeconversations/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cafeconversations/support

A Conversation on the difference between Church Folks, Saved Folks and how to forgive folks. I’ve been in church all my life, we went Sunday after Sunday, not to mention choir rehearsal, Bible study, BTU, Vacation Bible School, 3pm Sunday service, and those infamous 3day revivals. If there was a service, we attended it. But did it make us better people, did it change or shape us into people like Christ? I and many others would beg to differ. Your church attendance won’t get you into heaven, and everybody who talks about heaven, ain’t going... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cafeconversations/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cafeconversations/support

The last three months have been scary for some, depressing for others and stressful for the rest of us. During these times we've witnessed prejudice, discrimination, deceptiveness and shoddiness from the media and most of all our own government. hundreds or thousands have been infected, and affected due to Covid-19. But the most alarming thing in all of this, is the fact that it is obviously still illegal to be BLACK in America.  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cafeconversations/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cafeconversations/support

The Coronavirus also know as Covid-19, is changing all of our lives in some way or another, but one particular way of life I've seen it change and have a great impact on, is the church. The church is the key essential and spiritual element for many of us and a way of life and spiritual connectivity for millions all over the world, especially the American people, and even more so, with the African Americans. The Church is where you go to meet God along with our fellow Sisters and brothers in Christ, to hear the preached word as a part of our spiritual growth and closeness to God, to learn about God and his plan for our lives. Covid-19 has now changed the way we have church, going from in person church services to now virtual church service, and this has a lot of church attendees pretty upset. In this episode, my sister and I discuss how this mysterious disease is impacting the people of the Church in, "The Coronavirus -V- The Church." --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cafeconversations/message

It was a year ago the idea was presented to me to start this podcast, and very naively, I did. I learned so much in this past year, and realize that there is so much more for me to learn. There is so much I want to do with Cafe Conversation, because I know that I can. If I made it a year, I know that I can go further. The podcast industry is a fast growing industry, and it's a very competitive one as well, and although I didn't get everything that I wanted to do done in this 1st year, I am looking forward to resetting gaols, setting new goals and reach those goals successfully. Until next season, I bid you peace.  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cafeconversations/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cafeconversations/support

According to the Center For Family Justice, 1 in 4 females and 1 out of 6 males are sexually assaulted in their life time. Yet, only 230 out of every 1,000 assaults are ever reported to the police.  In this episode, I had the pleasure of having a very intimate conversation with a brother by the name of Mr. Kerry Kay, an old neighborhood friend, that came up with me from back in the day. What Kerry shared with me in this interview, I never would have or could have imagined him having gone through, or anybody matter of fact, after all he was a "BOY", who seemed happy. What Kerry shares in the episode was of his own free will and his own act of transparency.  Kerry Ray was born in Dallas Texas, of June 1978 to his parents, James and Rita Ray in this household were three children with Kerry being the middle child.  At the young age of 9-10 years old, Kerry Ray, was  molested by a friend of the family... multiple times, which turned Kerry Ray, a once happy jolly child, filled with his parents love and joy.... towa
