TKAM #776 Want to Meet A Black Person? #MotivationMonday

Summary: TKAM #776 Want to Meet A Black Person? #MotivationMonday 12.13.17 What if we told you that Mondays didn’t have to be so hard? TK in the AM is a show that’s better than coffee. We’ll pump you up and turn your Monday into an opportunity to strive for better. #MotivationMonday TK and Conscious start off the show by talking about food and wellness. TK attended the Very BLK Christmas party in the Bronx (Shout out to food justice advocate Tanya Fields) , and Conscious got to eat amazing Filipino food. Also TK is on a journey through the world of holistic remedies. In #NewsYouCanUse: Thousands are stuck at Atlanta Airport after it lost power on Sunday. Facebook has a new bait algorithm and we don’t know what to make of it. Miss Iraq is receiving death threats after taking a selfie with Miss Israel. In hopes of creating a better sense of community, a social group held a “Meet a Black Person Event.” During #ChatroomCheckin, we looked over the motivations that our listeners shared with us. Also much love to our Bondfire family member, Likwuid for sharing her #meToo moment online and opening up her open mic at The Shrine in Harlem tonight to those that want to talk. TK and Conscious finish the show by picking up where they left off on Monday with “If You’re Too Busy for These 5 Things, Then Your Life is Off Course.” In the spirit of motivations, we discussed what drives people, and the question of what is it that we really want. So we ask you: How do you want to feel? What is your ‘why’? #MotivationMonday @TKinTheAM is live every M-W-F 10-1130am EST on bondfireradio.com and tunein app. Same day replays 7pm EST also available on Apple Podcasts, GooglePlay Music, mixcloud, and Spreaker!
