Sowing Seeds of Service above Self with Tonia Oldham

Posted on November 9, 2019 by Tyra Garlington • 0 Comments

I love it when I get together, courageous enough to look and walk beyond words. Giving each other permission to expose gifts of imperfection without judgment. Frankly Speaking is our time and space to help, heal, educate, and encourage each other into the best version of ourselves no matter where we are in our journey. Our spiritual doggie bag this week includes a note from LOVE also known as God and as offered by author Glennon Doyle Melton and I quote: “Stop holding your breath. Breathe. There is enough. I have created an abundance of acceptance, attention, recognition, joy, peace, money,……

DJ KHALED, music industry megaproducer and recording artist was a part of your student group, he may take this young man out to lunch and remind him as well as all of us in his book The Keys, and I quote: “We The Best means exactly what it says. I didn’t say I’m the best. That’s an important distinction; I said we. That means me, Fan Luv, my team, and everybody who’s got love and positive energy. Let me ask you this: If somebody came up to you and asked, “Are you, the beat writer, chef, producer, director? What would……

Voices from the future with Jimmy and Sherry Grimes

Posted on September 8, 2019 by Tyra Garlington • 0 Comments

What’s in a name? “Nexters” or Generation Z (born after 2000) composed another 3% of the global workforce, but they make up more of the global population (25%) than any other generation. By 2020, they will be out of school, making up 20% of the global workforce right behind Millennials.” This is a maker generation, a far more pragmatic and practical generation who must architect and build the future we are all trying to imagine living in. The world doesn’t need more foundational layers, it needs a generation to create. Meet Generation Next They use technology and the internet to connect……

Chocolates after midnight with Jaleh Moslehi and Tyra G

Posted on July 28, 2019 by Tyra Garlington • 0 Comments

Life is an ongoing process. It is not made up of one event. Every time it rains, it stops raining. Every time we get hurt, we heal. After darkness there is always light- we are reminded of this every morning, but still, we can forget, and instead choose to believe that the night will last forever. It won’t. Nothing lasts forever. I chose this month’s theme as Chocolates after Midnight, Midnight symbolizing the rain and chocolates symbolizing the rainbows in our lives. We are looking at ourselves and how we relate and respond to life’s seasons. Every week this month,……

What we think we know with Bill Knopf, chef on Vision Quest Rehabilitation Wagon Train for troubled teens

Posted on July 28, 2019 by Tyra Garlington • 0 Comments

This month’s introductory question: So, what do you want to be when you grow up? This is a question we ask children and adults. We grow up getting clues as to who we should be from significant others and multimedia images and stories. We begin in a once upon a time and have a goal of living happily ever after. Somewhere between the ages of three and ten, we seem to be drawn to the land of superheroes. If you doubt that we all arrive in this world with gifts and as a gift, pay attention to an infant or a……

There are some things we just don’t talk about. . . with Angela Peabody and F A Cole

Posted on July 24, 2019 by Tyra Garlington • 0 Comments

Author Susan Taylor says, “Loving is our strongest human need. In our effort to satisfy our deepest craving, we regularly look outside ourselves to find a person to love. Don’t you love being in love? I know I do. I’ve invested more time and energy in love relationships than I have in most other things. But a relationship with another person will never satisfy our hunger for love. Each of us is created in and of love. God loves us. God is love in us. Each of us is the very activity of love. We have all the love we……
