Family, I had to come back with a bonus episode because my heart needed to say something, and I couldn't wait until Wednesday to say it.
Over the last couple of months, my father has been battling serious health challenges, and I want to start by saying THANK YOU. The love, the support, the prayers, the kind words that have come my way during this time—it means EVERYTHING. You lift me up. You lift this show up. And together, we're building something real.

Family, I had to come back with a bonus episode because my heart needed to say something, and I couldn't wait until Wednesday to say it.
Over the last couple of months, my father has been battling serious health challenges, and I want to start by saying THANK YOU. The love, the support, the prayers, the kind words that have come my way during this time—it means EVERYTHING. You lift me up. You lift this show up. And together, we're building something real.
But this bonus episode isn't just about gratitude—it's about something critical that I need you to hear: GO GET CHECKED OUT. Don't ignore what your body is telling you. Don't put off that appointment. Don't hope it goes away. My father is here today because he followed up on the signs his body was giving him. Early detection changed everything. And I know so many of you are fighting something right now—don't fight it alone, and don't fight it by ignoring it. Get the help. Get the check-up. Take action.
I also want to send a special message to my cousin who's listening right now—keep fighting. Keep pushing. You've got the corner's support, and more importantly, you've got God's strength.
Now, as we head into this season of celebration—Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year—I want to talk about something that seems simple but is absolutely CRITICAL: Stay hydrated. Stay moving. Stay conscious of what you're eating. Start your day with water before anything else. Walk. Work out. Don't abandon your health routine just because it's the holidays. You can celebrate AND take care of yourself. You can enjoy the food AND drink the water. It's not either-or—it's BOTH.
Health is wealth, family. It's not selfish to take care of yourself—it's essential. It's the greatest investment you can make. Be there for your family, be there for your community, be there for yourself by staying on top of your health.
