About this listen
This episode is one of the heaviest and most personal I’ve ever shared. In August 2015, I lost my baby cousin Jordan to gun violence, and in September 2023, my older cousin Redrick was taken from us through jail violence. Two different paths, two different stories, but both lives stolen too soon.
In this episode, I honor their memories while reflecting on the reality our young men face every day — wrong place, wrong time, systemic traps, and the lack of mentorship that could have guided them to a better outcome. Through clips from Coach Carter and Antwone Fisher, I connect their stories to broader truths about the struggles and choices our youth face, and the urgency of stepping in before it’s too late.
This isn’t just about loss — it’s about love, legacy, and lifting up the next generation. Jordan and Redrick now stand as angels in my life, and through this episode, I pray their stories help inspire change, healing, and action.
🎧 Tune in now and let’s walk through this reflection together.
