HEAR FOR IT Gizelle Adams

The reason big business will exist over small is due to convenience. You'll find a Starbucks or Walmart not too far from where you live but a local farmer's market or a small, independently owned clothing store requires a bit more research to locate. This is why big business hold power over smaller ones. We need to push ourselves to be less lazy shoppers.

One of the biggest issues I have with people is rudeness. It is a very poor reflection of one's upbringing to possess this awful quality. Being rude is appropriate in very specific, called-for situations but in most, can inhibit one's success, one's character, and one's ability to be relatable and make good, strong connections in their life. I can plainy say: "don't be rude" but I truly have come to understand knowing your place and when not to be rude comes with the rebuilding of one's character and relearning manners, if they ever had any to begin.

We hear the concept of being smart compared to being wise often today. This is something that has been ingrained into my head from my very early years who has taught me most of what I know today. Take a minute to reflect and think about whether you conduct your life in a smart or in a wise way. In this podcast I explain the difference and how it may benefit you specifically.

Every time I visit the doctor, I am pressed about getting the flu shot, Tetanus shot, and now, the Covid-19 vaccine. Before doing research, I would take the shots urged by doctors as I entrusted my health care providers and our healthcare system. As I have come to realize the industry is completely financially driven and corrupt within itself, I have developed very passionate feelings about the things that go into our bodies that are pushed by our nurses and doctors all too much. Listen to this absolutely absurd experience I had getting the flu shot and how the doctor commited an ILLEGAL act.

Are we influenced without even knowing? Do our subconscious minds take note of the ads we see on TV or during commercials we hear? What is the liklihood you will go purchase the item you see a celebrity or major influencer promoting? Are you aware of the power some of the influencers of today hold? From early social media mavens like Paris Hilton and the Kardashians to the young trail blazers in the world of digital influence today, how much weight do these individuals hold and how?

Today was a tough day for me and I'm sure for all those who spent Christmas without their families. For some, not being able to see family was due to distance or quarantine, but for me, it was a choice. Find out why and how you can help out this holiday season. It is something I am really passionate about.
