Living Your Truth w/Tavares By Tavares

Welcome back to Living Your Truth with Tavares.

I'm your host, Tavares Garrett, and welcome to Season 11, Episode 11.

Today's episode is deeply personal.

It's about something I think many of us experience but rarely talk about.

It's called...

Reminding Yourself of You.

Have you ever looked in the mirror and thought,

"I don't even recognize myself anymore."

Not because you've changed physically...

But because somewhere along the journey...

You lost pieces of yourself.

Maybe life happened.

Maybe trauma happened.

Maybe parenthood.

Maybe marriage.

Maybe divorce.

Maybe addiction.

Maybe grief.

Maybe success.

Maybe failure.

Maybe years of putting everyone else first.

Whatever the reason...

One day you woke up and realized...

You've been surviving for so long...

That you forgot who you are outside of survival.

Today's episode is about coming home to yourself.

It's about remembering your voice.

Your values.

Your purpose.

Your joy.

Your strength.

Your identity.

Because the world spends enough time telling you who you should become.

Sometimes you need to stop...

And remember who you've always been.

Love Yourself, Love Each Other and Live Your Truth,

Welcome back to Living Your Truth with Tavares.

I'm your host, Tavares Garrett, and welcome to Season 11, Episode 10.

Today's conversation is one that I believe every single person needs to hear.

It's about two of the most powerful letters in the English language.

N...O.

No.

Such a simple word.

Yet for so many people, it's one of the hardest words to say.

Why?

Because saying no often comes with guilt.

Fear.

Anxiety.

The fear of disappointing someone.

The fear of rejection.

The fear of conflict.

The fear of being misunderstood.

So instead of saying no...

We overcommit.

We overextend.

We overexplain.

We people-please.

And eventually...

We become exhausted trying to keep everyone else happy while quietly neglecting ourselves.

Today's episode isn't about becoming selfish.

It's about becoming intentional.

It's about learning that every time you say yes to something...

You're automatically saying no to something else.

Your time.

Your energy.

Your peace.

Your health.

Your family.

Your purpose.

So today, let's talk about the power of saying no—and why it may be one of the healthiest decisions you ever learn to make.

Love Yourself, Love Each Other and Live Your Truth,

Welcome back to Living Your Truth with Tavares.

I'm your host, Tavares Garrett, and this is Season 11, Episode 9.

Today's conversation is about one word that has the power to completely transform your life.

Accountability.

Now, let's be honest.

Most people don't like accountability.

Why?

Because accountability requires something many people avoid:

Ownership.

Ownership of our choices.
Ownership of our habits.
Ownership of our attitudes.
Ownership of our healing.
Ownership of our future.

And here's what I've learned over the years:

The moment you stop blaming everyone else...
is the moment your life begins to change.

Accountability isn't about guilt.

It isn't about shame.

It isn't about beating yourself up.

It's about looking in the mirror and saying:

"This is where I am... and I have the power to influence where I go next."

That is one of the most empowering realizations a person can have.

Today we're going to explore what accountability really means, why so many people resist it, what science says about personal responsibility, and how accountability can become one of the greatest forms of freedom you'll ever experience.

Love Yourself, Love Each Other and Live Your Truth,

Welcome back to Living Your Truth with Tavares.

I'm your host, Tavares Garrett, and this is

Season 11, BONUS Episode.

Today's conversation is about one-word KEHLANI.

WE CELEBRATE YOU KEHLANI!!!

Kehlani Ashley Parrish was born on April 24, 1995, in Oakland, California. They were adopted and raised by their aunt when their mother, who had a drug addiction, served time in jail. Kehlani's father, who also had a drug addiction, died when they were a toddler. During their teenage years, they attended the Oakland School for the Arts, where they initially practiced dance, particularly ballet and modern dance.

Early in her life, Kehlani aspired to train as a dancer at the Juilliard School, but they had a knee injury in junior high, which led them to turn their attention towards singing. While living with their aunt, Kehlani was exposed almost exclusively to R&B and neo soul artists, such as Lauryn Hill, Erykah Badu and Jill Scott, whom today they describe as some of their early musical influences. When they were 14, Kehlani was recruited to join a local pop cover band, PopLyfe.

Kehlani's singing career effectively began when they started out as a member and lead vocalist for the group called PopLyfe. The band's music was produced by former Tony! Toni! Tone! member D'Wayne Wiggins.

Within two years, the group performed throughout the Bay Area and other cities. In 2011, they auditioned for the sixth season of America's Got Talent, and eventually finished in fourth place. During their final appearance, judge Piers Morgan told Kehlani, "You've got real talent, but I don't think you need the group."

Kehlani is a vegan.  They have spoken about their past experiences being a survivor of sexual assault and rape.

Kehlani has been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder (BPD) and bipolar disorder. In an interview with Power 106, Kehlani discusses their attempted suicide was due to the negative media response as well as their first major heartbreak.

They state that their album was therapeutic through their difficult time. During their recovery, they got a tattoo that says "perdida y encontrada" which in English translates to "lost and found".

Today we're going to explore the album KEHLANI, and why so many people love it, what it says about personal responsibility, and how accountability can become one of the greatest forms of freedom you'll ever experience.

KEHLANI YOU'RE LOVED AND YOU ARE SEEN.

LOVE,
