My cousin Ashley (@Ashleyb_hair) joined me to discuss the importance of maintaining your mental health and paying attention to the people around you. Ashley shares her history with her mother and her transition from a loving mom to an unhealthy situation. What I learned from this episode is to pay attention to changes and never play with words because there are people who are suffering from the things people take lightly.

My plan for my 100th episode was to have my mother on, but it happened sooner than later LOL. I bought my mother on for transparency and vulnerability. Before this show I was always private about family and family issues but this show has been therapeutic for me. My mother rarely talks about the past so I was surprised but happy that she opened up so much. I learned a lot about myself, my family and my mother on this one. Hope you enjoyed.

I decided to go with this title after having this conversation with B (@lom_hueyp) because It shows the evolution of the Baltimore man.

If you watch or listen to any other episodes you get that Baltimore creates hustlers and go getters. B shares a little bit of his upbringing that motivated him to start these businesses and the goal to take them to the next level.
