"Ships" and Giggles Cher and Jalen

Cher and Jalen talk about what love means to us. Is there a difference between love and being "in" love and how does that feel?  They talk about Greek philosophers and the eight categories of love, how they feel to us, and with whom we feel the different kinds of love. They dive into how the generations love and what makes them feel loved. Love is an action word, so they talk about being "in" love as a short-term experience and love being more long-term, and sustainable. 

Jalen and Cher are talking about how they feel about New Year Resolutions, Their Word of the year, and what they are leaving behind and looking forward to. They also talk about new things that they want to add to old routines and/or their daily lives. 

Jalen and Cher have been on a hiatus, yet they were still out there living.

Welcome or welcome back to the podcast where mom and son navigate through their lives, sharing thoughts from their generational perspectives, and proving that parents and adult children can have a friendship and operate in their roles.

Jay and I talk about when we listened to our gut feeling and the other times when we decided to make a different decision. Not every circumstance or situation that we find ourselves in requires reasoning, especially when we are tuned in to our gut. Our body knows what...

Celebrating your wins can be so motivating for you and others. There are people that believe we should be modest and not mention what we have or earn. Jay and I talk about how we feel about bragging and boasting. What is the difference? We talk about that as well. We both agree that we should celebrate hoe far we have come. It is motivating and can help us avoid being depressed or feel like we want to quit. Life is good and we should celebrate our wins everyday, small and big wins. ...
