Have you ever experienced a winter season in your marriage or long-term relationship? The kind where things feel stagnant, mundane, and you're left feeling unfulfilled? In this episode of "Let's Talk About It," hosts Malcolm and Brittany Garrison dive into the four seasons of marriage and offer insights on how to navigate the challenges that come with each one.

And finally, winter represents the stagnation phase, characterized by coldness, harshness, and bitterness.

The conversation between the hosts centers around the emotions, attitudes, actions, and climate of the relationship in each season,

So, whether you're currently in the spring of your relationship or weathering the winter season, this episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in maintaining a healthy and fulfilling relationship.

Black Financial Trauma: Understanding and Overcoming its Impact on Identity

Tue, 24 Jan 2023 11:00:00 +0000

In this episode, we're talking about Black Financial Trauma and how it impacts our identity.

Have you ever been in a position where you felt like you had to purchase things to look a specific way in order to be "SEEN" as successful? Or maybe you've been the individual to say "I don't believe they're making money", yeah, us too.That's what we're talking about. Why is that? What is that? And what are the long term effects if we don't start having conversations around it?

We'll also be delving into the idea of conscientious identity crisis, which is when we attach our identity to the things we buy in order to feel superior or equal. And let's be real, we've all been there at some point. But we'll be discussing how this way of thinking can be detrimental to our long-term financial health and well-being.

But of course with all of this, we address how we can address and empower ourselves financially. One thing we'll be exploring is the instinct to change our lifestyle and buy material things when we make money. And while this may be a common tendency, it's important to unpack the trauma that comes with believing that looking like money is the only way to win. Success can also be found in intangibles, and we'll be discussing that too.

So, join us for this important conversation about Black Financial Trauma and how we can overcome its impact on our identity.

How many times in a relationship do we wish our partner knew every need we had just met them without us asking? All the time? Yeah... Us too.

Financial Planning Through Change (Ep. 25 CLIP)

Sat, 14 Jan 2023 18:10:00 +0000

No matter how much we try to plan, life is unpredictable and can change in unexpected ways. Its essential to be able to develop a financial plan to ensure you’re prepared.

In this clip from episode 25, we talk about the steps we took to pivot with unexpected change.

Assess your current financial situation. How much money do you have in savings? What monthly bills do you pay?

The most important step for us was to prioritize your spending. Where is the most essential and where can you cut back? Determine what is necessary, and what can be put on hold until you’re in a more stable place financially.

Life transitions can be stressful and undesirable but with a financial plan in place, you’ll be better prepared to move forward.

It's never easy dealing with issues that your loved ones experience, especially Mental Health and Mental Illnesses.

This episode really peels back some of the layers of the hurt we've never even talked about when you cant control the things that happen to the people that you love.

#AfterDark -- Can Sex Be A Weapon in Dating & Marriage?

Wed, 19 Oct 2022 03:00:53 +0000

Episode 21 comes from a wild and raunchy IG live we did where we deep dive into intimacy of a relationship, how men and women differ when it comes to communicating... what’s real and what’s fake.

But according to a post from Dana Chanel that every man sent to their woman about the WEAPONIZING of sex... do women really do that, is it really "weaponizing", does it make relationships more complicated?

Men and women have very different perspectives, but it’s important to hear both sides because the truth lies somewhere in between and it wasnt just us and our opinions but those of the individuals in the comments so you will def hear us reading some of them for context.

Sit back, relax and get a bottle of wine while we unpack the very controversial topic that everybody seems to miss lol

#FinancialCompatibility -- The Five Money Personalities

Tue, 27 Sep 2022 10:00:00 +0000

We had an eye opening conversation around discovering our money personalities within the relationship. A topic most people have never had with their family, friends or spouse. Sometimes it’s important to compare differences in order to learn why people operate they way they do. Whether you are single, in a relationship or just hanging with friends, this topic is an important discussion to have, especially if we want to communicate more effectively.

Take a ride with us as we unpack the FIVE Money Personalities based on the book by Scott and Bethany Palmer and if you hear one that relates to you don’t forget to work on the others, because nobody has the perfect trait.

Tue, 06 Sep 2022 10:00:00 +0000

We’ve all heard about how men do not express themselves, and sometimes that’s true. Women always ask questions like, “what is he THINKING”. However, there’s never been a true space for men to feel comfortable enough expressing themselves… not until we create the space ourselves.

So we did just that, we brought our brothers Alex and Cory on the show to talk about it! Take the ride with us on this conversation where we discuss mental health, marriage, finances, relationships and more.

When Should I Pivot... Have I Failed? (Ep. 14 CLIP)

Thu, 01 Sep 2022 10:00:00 +0000

Because WHO knew your purpose changed?!

In this clip of episode 14, we discuss an excerpt from “The Way of the Superior Man” by David Deida (Chapter 12) where he talks about the fulfillment of multiple purposes.

In our season of pivoting, change and understanding that change, this gave us so much perspective and understanding to learn that when desires for certain things change, it could simply be that you’ve fulfilled that assignment, you’ve fulfilled that purpose and NOT that you’ve failed.

Plus, you’ve been equipped with tools and skills for your next purpose.

#Support -- What Does It Really Look Like?

Tue, 14 Jun 2022 08:00:00 +0000

Let's be honest, we have all had those moments where we feel like "THEY don't support me"... whether in business, an idea, a new venture, college, relationships, etc., they don't support me, but have we ever stopped to think about what our actual support needs are?

Like WHAT does "SUPPORT" actually look like for me? Is it a shared post, showing up, or a pat on the back?

Is the problem that our expectation is a reflection of how we show up for others? Is it that we have a want but don't actually voice our needs to feel supported?

What about the moments where life changes and we are no longer on the same paths, you don't support this version of me...

This week we talk about support and how we can learn how to effectively voice what our needs are to the people around us!

#SocialMedia -- Toxic or Nah?

Tue, 17 May 2022 06:00:00 +0000

As Millennials, we've been around for the entire social media development, from MySpace and Blackplanet to IG and TikTok.

In this episode we discuss both the benefits and the dangers social media offers and how we've personally navigated through them. As individuals who've built a business utilizing connections made through social media, we truly value it, but has it become TOXIC AF? Does social media create pressure to succeed or motivation? Does it make you compare yourself to the people you look up to or evaluate how you can develop yourself?
