    "Emotions Make You Cry Sometimes"

    Happy Holidays y'all! Unfortunately, we are missing a Paradox this week and hope to be operating in full capacity next week. Angel and Maya get really deep into emotions, (or the lack thereof) this week. Maya shares how shutting down emotionally sent her into a tailspin and the repercussions of those decisions. Angel makes it clear on how closeting feelings almost took her out of here. This description doesn't even come close to the depth of this topic. Coping, sharing...FEELING! And let's not forget our resident Love Lady Maya. She believes Love Conquers All, but not just that everyday love. There is love with THE ONE that can change your life's trajectory. She and Angel combat differing opinions on this one. It's another packed one, y'all. Tune into this week's episode of Beautiful Paradox.
