Welcome back to another killer episode. This one will certainly not disappoint especially for my TV, VoiceOver and theater peeps. Join me as I sit with the incredible Ace award-winning talents of Rolonda Watts. Listen in as she talks about the hidden agendas and the manipulation of words by the powers that be to entice racism, skepticism and miss information just for the sole purpose of sensationalism just to grow followers and ratings and how it's destroying the integrity of real journalism. We talk about how tricky it can be to navigate between the gifts that we desire to do and what we're destined to do and to continuously check in with yourself and prioritize what is truly important in your life right now to avoid getting trapped in the illusion of perception as seen through the eyes of social media. Finally we discuss the importance of telling the truth but even more importantly telling honest and good stories that change laws, educate and change minds as Rolonda has successfully done by not being afraid to talk about controversial topics like pedophilia, white supremacy, and hidden agendas used for separation which is evidently destroying the unity of the world.
