Who's Right & Who's Wrong?
If a person doesn’t believe as you do, does this make them wrong and you right? I say no. This is a multifaceted world we live in. The intent of your heart matters more to me, than what you believe. I know how to listen, hear, learn, and dump what doesn’t serve me. Who am I to deem you wrong in your belief? And the catch 22 is, this can be flipped around like everything else is often done. The world is filled with duality. Almost everything has an opposite, yet almost every thing is connected. We see what we see, but do we always understand what we are looking at? Do we even question it. No we simply accept what we are told… and because it’s been told multiple times, despite the variations in the tale it’s self, we believe it. But who decides ultimately who's right and who's wrong? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thesafespace72/message

"Who Broke the Baby" The Affects of Childhood Trauma
There is no one more innocent than a newborn baby. This is the only time in their life, where they are blameless, pure, most protected and emotional and mentally stable. Unless, trauma is experience by the mother during the fetal incubation period. If this happens, that trauma can potentially be felt by the unborn child, therefore resulting in trauma being induced before birth. Other thank these mentioned factors, this new born has it made... that is until life begins at birth, and the chance for potentially life changing trauma arises. Trauma is based on life's circumstances, the parents and other people they may encounter in their life. Not to mention, environment, and life's events outside the womb.  Here's what I have found, we all have suffered, dealt with or dealing with some form of trauma or trauma response (Triggers). Many times trauma can go unnoticed, and even unidentified and even ignored. Only to have that same trauma to show up once it's triggered. Trauma can have a negative effects on the body, your mental health, emotional health and your social wellbeing. Trauma can potentially affect your sleep patterns, the memory, self-esteem, and may even cause learning disabilities.  If your or someone you know or think, they may be dealing with or suffering from any type of mental/emotional issues, please seek professional help. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thesafespace72/message

The Healing Body Through Music, Self Discovery and Creativity
In this episode Tee and I discuss how our creative attributes played a part in our healing process. For both Tee and I, we are lovers of music, art, and poetry, hence why we are friends. Ironically, music was a keep component in our healing journey. I know you've heard the saying, "Music soothes the savage beast" right? Well, this is partly because of the frequency the music is in. Music has the ability to not only sooth, but aid in healing as well. Music tuned to 432 Hz is softer and brighter and is said to be easiest on the ears and great for meditation. (repetionsfitness.com) Creativity aids in self discovery or self rediscovery, because it cause you to channel your energies into creating something new or different or it may spark an interest in something you never thought about before. This was another great show that I know you will enjoy.     --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thesafespace72/message

Releasing The Pain Body
Many of us naturally internalize emotional pain or trauma we feel others may not understand or misunderstand all together. We tend to fail at expressing our true feelings, we fail at setting boundaries, and we simply continue on with life as though we’re okay. But, it’s okay to not be okay, your feelings are valid, and your experiences that hurt you don’t have to be with you forever nor do they get to define who you are or how you should feel. In continuation of the previous episode, Surviving the Pain Body, we now must began to address the pain and start to release it. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thesafespace72/message

Self love, self care looks different for each of us, but until we can face our shadow our past or current trauma, self love can’t exist, self care can’t exist… we must first survive the pain body.

This is 1 of 5 episodes, a mini series so to speak, with a plethora of information. We hope you like subscribe and share this and all episodes, but more so, we hope you are helped and healed as you listen.

Self Acceptance
We live in a society where it is more important to fit in than it is to accept who you are. Self discovery is the beautiful journey of you, it’s the dips and curves of who your body, creativity of your mind, it’s the dark and light sides of you. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thesafespace72/message

Stop Being A Human Trash Can
In this episode, I talk about being a human trash can, meaning, stop allowing people to throw up all of their problems on you, stop allow people to transfer their negative energy to you. We all need someone to talk to, but there comes a time, when boundaries have to be put in place. Have you ever had that one friend, who is always going through, or every time you talk to them, they're being negative or always possessing a bad VIBE.  These type of people tend to pull us down, or cause our internal vibration or our VIBE, to lower. I believe that we are responsible for our own happiness, our own joy. These components are not found in people places or things, but within ourselves. Take a listen and leave a comment of your take on this particular topic.   --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thesafespace72/message

We all should be dreamers, aspiring to be more than what we are, striving to achieve the ultimate goal in our lives. We to some degree, we are creators, innovators, movers and shakers... but sometimes we are stagnant and stale in our abilities to be great, because, we find ourselves doubting our abilities. Maybe someone criticized your idea, or spoke negatively about a project you were over, or due to life circumstance, you may have lost your zeal or passion for whatever it is that was to be a part of your greatness....  In this episode, we discuss self doubt, and how it has the potential to halt our progress in being great artist, successful entrepreneurs and small business owners, CEO's an all around success. We also discuss ways to stop doubting ourselves and simply be great, because we are!

To Thine Own Self...
As Polonius, chief minister said to his son Laertes, in one of the most memorable plays written by the great Shakespear, "To Thine Own Self Be True". The first meaning is that someone can better judge himself if he has done what he should or could have done. The second meaning is that one must be honest in his ways and relations. The third meaning is that one must always do the right thing. In this episode it all about getting to know yourself! being honest about yourself, and changing yourself!! We are a society that loves to fix everybody else, comment on everybody else, talk about everybody else, but I ask you wonderful people!! "What about you" ? What's broken within you, what's off about you? What could you stand to change about you?  I go into a brief detail about getting to know yourself, being true to your self, and fixing yourself, because only you can do the real work. You can see a therapist, a psychologist, a spiritual leader, a Guru or who ever! But less you take a deep inward look and a long visit with you, it's all meaningless. i hope that you can take away from this episode a few things to help you or someone else, because that's what really matters to me. make sure to follow me on Instagram at prettygirlmedia8372 and on Twitter Deon8372 okay!

One Hell Of A Conversation Pt1
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/thesafespace72/message
