 Hi everyone, it's me Yolanda with every way woman talk show and in a vision media studios and I want to ask you a question today. Are you living your dream? You know around nation we are celebrating Dr. Martin Luther King birthday today and you I can see it everywhere. I see it on social media. There is on the internet is on the news and the one message they keep that continues to appear is that Dr. King had a dream and I want to ask you are you living your dream. I know that as a child, my dream was so important to me. It helped me focus. It helped me out of trouble. And it really was one of the major factors in deciding who I wanted to be the type of person I wanted to grow up and be the type of life that I wanted to be. And what I mean by that it has nothing to do with money. It has nothing to do with fame. My dream was really simple and I made sure I lived that dream and a lot of people sometimes are afraid to live their dreams. They're afraid of the people around them if they're going to make fun of them. They don't understand, call them names, weird, crazy. Oh you can't achieve that. And I want to tell you to never give up to not let naysayers keep you from going after or living your dream. I grew up in East St. Louis, Illinois. I knew early on what my dream was. I knew around the age of two or three what I wanted to do and the type of life I wanted to live. So we all have dreams and sometimes we are fearful of even saying our dreams out loud and I want to encourage you to live your dream and to be like Dr. King. Take that first step because once you get past that first step because the first step is the hardest, the rest is so much easier. And for me just packing my bags up and driving across country with only $200 in my pocket to California to pursue that dream. That took a lot for me to do and I just want to encourage others to do the same. No, do not drive across country with $200 but I encourage you to go after your dreams. I also would like to say that dreams don't come easy and you have to put the work into those dreams. When I started the talk show, you know, it was a concept. It was an idea that led from shooting on a rooftop to my school project to shooting in my living room and eventually moving into a studio. So you have to realize that dreams sometimes don't come true overnight but doesn't mean you have to stop, you know, working at that dream. Last year I opened up my very first business and I was really like proud of myself because I remember thinking about as a kid that I was going to own a business one day. And that was a dream of mine. So if you have a dream, surround yourself with people who are supportive. I was am happy that I have a husband who really supports my entrepreneurship dreams. And with that said, you cannot be around negative people. That person doesn't support your dreams. Let them go. Okay, that's all I have to say. Happy MLK Day. Follow your dreams. Watch Every Way Woman. Stop by Intervision Media Studios and say hi to me. I'm Yolanda and bye.
