Truth & Coffee Time Podcast Episodes
Bringing this short but loving chat from yours truly. Love has a way of unfolding in the most unexpected and beautiful ways. Sometimes it hits us like a lightning bolt, while other times it takes a gradual journey of discovery.
Hold up, Half-Time is here! Relationships are absolutely no joke and both parties must put in the work! Take the everyday stress of relationships, the woes, and the constant work and add the interracial/intercultural element to it, and the work doubles, sometimes triples, and may even stall. But it’s half-time - so let's get into it!
Episode 158, we brought back the discussion of the Interracial pre-game. We shared some courageous conversations that interracial couples should talk about before getting into a serious relationship. So now you are in there, have jumped into a committed relationship, and/or you're married! Well, okay you jumped! Pre-gaming is over and now it is Game Time!
There is little success if, “game time”, conversations are denied or avoided. Let’s get into this episode!
Openness, honesty and transparency must happen and it should happen sooner than later in the relationship. Once you begin to feel that soul connection, courageous conversations are a must! These conversations must happen because although there is progress being made, there is still much work to be done in our society. Racism and prejudice from some still exist. Because of that very reason all facets of being in an interracial relationship must be considered, by both parties.
In a heartfelt episode, Reiki Master Janice Buerkli joined us as we dive into the profound themes of healing, energy, and love. Through her touching personal stories, Janice shared how she coped with the loss of her parents and found solace in the signs of their presence that she encounters daily. Her experiences serve as a reminder of the enduring connection we share with our departed loved ones, bridging the gap between the physical and spiritual realms.
During our conversation, Janice illuminated the powerful interplay between love and prosperity, showcasing how these two elements are intricately entwined in our journey towards self-discovery and fulfillment. By exploring the profound relationship between these concepts, Janice offered a unique perspective on the ways in which love and healing can shape our lives and foster gratitude for the blessings we have.
Through her insights on the profound impact of energy on our overall well-being, Janice highlighted the importance of mindfulness and awareness in navigating life's challenges. As she shared her wisdom and experiences with us, Janice's words resonated deeply, encouraging us to embrace a sense of healing and love that can transform our perspectives and bring us closer to a state of inner peace and harmony.

Hey, Hey, Hey! Another classic! Exploring a great conversation on how knowledge and teachings are passed down from one generation to the next. We all should be willing to share what we know with one another. Embarking on an "each one, teach one" journey in our lives. For us, it was our grandparents that taught us according to the knowledge they had learned throughout their lives. They were impactful and passionate about their learnings and always had a lecture or advice to share, whether you wanted it or not. They meant well in all their teachings and for that, we will be forever grateful because, no matter what dream we chose to pursue - our grandparents, "Taught Us What They Knew"! Let's get into this conversation!
In this episode, we dive into the biblical principles surrounding the role of a wife as a helpmate to her husband. We contrast these principles with the dynamics of modern relationships, which often prioritize competition and a one-sided approach to partnership. Join us as we explore the significance of being prepared to fulfill the supportive and nurturing role envisioned in the biblical context, and consider how this perspective can enrich contemporary relationships. It’s a bit controversial, but let’s get into it!
