Talk Time with Hope Hope

Hey y'all! Mid May what do you say? Hope everyone who has a mother had a great mother's day or those who are mothers had a good Mother's Day or those who have a mother and our a mother, yes, hope y'all have a wonderful Mother's Day! I miss my mom SO MUCH and it's always hard on this special day BUT I got through it and so did my siblings. My, I feel, my mom is always with me. That warms my heart. Anyway, I got a ticket... YES, me. Not cool. And I had to call the po po on my new upstair neighbor. Definitely not something I wanted to do. Lastly, wanting to share an article about things that speed up the aging process. I share because I care and let me tell you, I'm serious about the dark circles under my eyes. I hope to find a solution for it. But outside of that well, I think I'm doing ok as a I age. #glorytogod 🙃

I'm moving the podcast to Fridays as it suits me better with time on that day. I may have an episode this Friday but if not for sure next Friday.

See you on the flip side. God bless. 😉🌻❤️

Alright I really get into how passionate I am about spreading ovarian cancer awareness. It is one of my life's missing. There's simply too many women that are still getting diagnosed late and still too many women dying due to that. We have to keep talking about it. We must keep talking about it. And if I come off as if I'm angry that friends and family haven't necessarily been there to support me on this mission that is not my intention. Was I hurt or surprised by how many weren't supportative? Sure. I really thought people would be jumping in line to ask me how they could buy my book or how they could tell people they know how to get their hands on a copy of my book or even just how they could help with spreading the awareness. That didn't happen. Not in the way I thought it would which would have been droves of people wanting to help because they were so happy I hadn't died. I didn't expect to be a New York best seller. Doubt a story of someone going through cancer would ever get that honor UNLESS they are already famous. But I didn't hope and even expected to have sold way more copies than I did here in my home country yet that didn't happen. But it did happen in Saudi, where I had students wanting to get a copy because they were so proud of me for surviving and writing a book about it. That puzzled me. Yet I didn't have time to somehow feel sorry for myself or be pissy about. Sometimes it really boils down to: it is what it is and it is a good lesson in don't put your expectations too high for those in your life with supporting you. I didn't want to think that way and I still don't want to think that way but this is life. All I can do is say what I am saying in this episode about how all of it and most especially let you all know that it would be really awesome if you shared now. If you would help me and all those folks and organizations out there doing all they can to spread awareness. It doesn't take money, if you have that those organizations will always be in need of help that way, nor does it take time to share things about ovarian cancer and in doing so, lives can be saved. I don't believe I should have lived.. I waited so long to see a doctor. I was in denial. Yet despite that I have continued to live, even despite having two recurrences. Despite the two surgeries and the 24 chemo treatments. I'm still here. I want it to mean something. And I want to earn it. That's why I share. And I hope you will help me share awareness too. 🩵

P.S. I never want pity or people feeling sorry for me. Despite knowing I shouldn't still be here, in the grand scheme of statistics, I am grateful beyond words. Grateful, so grateful! I give God all the glory. Peace. Love. Blessings to you all. Be well. Stay well. ❤️

Happy FOUR years of Talk Time with Hope! Seriously, FOUR years, whaaaatttt?! I guess when you love doing something time goes by even faster. 🙃🍾Here's to many many more -- even if on the new platform coming in June. Maybe I'll finally be ready for video podcasting... probably not. lol

Alright just talking about how, probably spoke about this before, but how women have to, should be, ever aware of their surroundings when exercising in public. Walking. Biking. Running. Jogging as slow as a turtle, etc. Why? Because it is us WOMEN that get harmed. It is us WOMEN that can assaulted when freaking out trying to just exercise. It's ridiculous that this stuff happens but it does happen and because of that PLEASE ladies, be smart. Don't wear both ear buds, keep one ear open. Don't keep your head down where you don't notice anyone around you. Be aware of your surroundings, always -- not just when you are exercising. It's not about being paranoid or crazy, it's about being smart and knowing that women get abducted at places as a place one would think is safe like a park or in their neighborhood. That's my public awareness announcement for today.

Also talking about a couple of conversations I had with some Uber passengers. Always got good conversations with passengers.... for the most part.

Happy end of April. 🌻

Thanks as ALWAYS for giving me a listen. Tell a friend or 200 as maybe they'll enjoy my non-true crime non-genre specific podcast too.😉

Be well. Stay well. God bless. ❤️

Just talking a tad bit on the trump trial -- basically how that dude does not deserve the coverage he is getting. YES, I get that it is unprecedented in this is the first ever former POTUS to go to trial for something like this (and this is just ONE so far) BUT come on! The dude doesn't deserve so much attention JUST like I don't think Margorie Green Taylor and George Santos and Lauren Boebert should be getting so much attention as well. They are drama queens and kings and so over them. They want to stay relevant and the media makes it so. Ugh!🤦🏽‍♀️

The other things I talk about in today's episode is the protests going on at Columbia University and Yale. The antisemitic and islamophobia that continues to go in this country and how are we not coming together on all of this stuff? Violence and hate does not work. Never has. Never will. All of human existence shows that! 🥲

Give peace a chance! Love, yes, I still believe, is the answer.

Thanks, as always for giving me a listen. Tell a friend or 200 friends to give me a try, a listen. 😉

Until next time:

Be well. Stay well. God bless. 🌻❤️

***Correction: trump cheated on his wife NOT when she was pregnant, but when his son was 4 months old.*** Forgive me for at end of this episode I did not give the story of the women murdered in Oklahoma, last week, justice. I'll be attaching a link to that story for those interested in learning more about it.
Alright, it's hush money trail week over in New York and I'm so happy it's happening. Yeah, I didn't think it was going to actually happen either. I won't sing "oh happy days" just yet though as that man is still on the ballet and many people still want him to be the POTUS again. God, please, please don't allow that to happen. I know He allows what man allows, but maybe he can just touch the minds of all those who have continued to drink the Kool-Aid of insanity? That's what I am praying for. That and that trump is actually found guilty and has to do prison time. I KNOW, chances of that happen would literally be a Bonafide miracle.
Anyway, attaching some links to the news about that trial as well as the news on how he went on some very weird rambling about Gettysburg. This guy! 🤦🏽‍♀️

Thanks AS ALWAYS for giving me a listen. Take care of yourself. Be kind to others, and yourself. If you like this podcast thinking about sharing it with a friend of 200 friends. 🙃😉
Be well. Stay well. God bless. 🌻

I got to experience something not everyone does and not something maybe some people, maybe more than some people may never experience... and that there be a total solar eclipse. That is all.

Just joshing!

It was quite epic though! Like seriously, y'all! Something I hadn't ever experienced and something I may never get to again. Which was a reason I took advantage of having the flexibility of driving with Uber and being in the path of totality. It was too good to pass up. And love that I did. Plus I was able to get some pretty great pics of it. Something I wasn't sure was possible. Tell y'all what... how far phones have come is just mind boggling! What use to be done with a professional or maybe just an expense camera can be done on a smartphone, albeit a new model one that can zoom in, but still a smartphone. Never really thought it would possible. But it is and it was today. It can't match say the expensive cameras but the smartphones are getting better and better than maybe in the next 5 years they will be right there with them there fancy expensive cameras. Maybe.

I hope some of y'all were able to go out and enjoy the eclipse too. If not, maybe you'll get the chance when it comes back around. Which won't be until 2044, at least not in these parts anyway.

Alright so listen in for more.

Be well. Stay well. God bless. 🌻

Thanks for the listen. Tell a friend or 200. 😉

P.S. if you can be hope for someone, be hope for someone. If someone can be hope for you...be open to that. ❤️
