Hello fam it s your boy Cousin Ed back with another one This Wednesday we re doing something a little different We re getting deep diving into the nitty-gritty of relationships the good the bad and the downright toxic Let s chill and chat just like in the old times I found my mind wandering to the remarkable life of the Queen herself Tina Turner This woman a powerhouse of rock and soul went through trials that would break most Born into a sharecropper s family she met a man named Ike who saw potential in her Ike took her under his wing crafting her into the phenomenal Tina Turner we all came to love But the man who birthed her career was also her worst tormentor That s a twisted paradox ain t it It ain t just Tina who s faced this harsh paradox Remember the King of Pop Michael Jackson His own father the man who built the stepping stones to his success was a source of toxicity in his life And let s not forget our girl Beyonce who had to cut ties with her father despite the crucial role he played in her rise to stardom It seems fame has its own price doesn t it It s strange how life works sometimes The same people who bring out the best in us professionally can be the very ones who drag us down personally They can mold us push us to the brink of our potentials yet leave us damaged in the process It s like being stuck in a bittersweet symphony caught between the need to evolve and the urge to preserve your wellbeing We all hear stories about how it s isn t easy to leave a toxic relationship Fear grips you fear of losing status comfort even fear of the unknown But look at Tina Turner and so many other courageous individuals Many who have found the courage to step away to reclaim their lives And it s a testament that you can too Stepping away from toxicity doesn t mean the end It s just a new beginning Just like a phoenix you can rise from the ashes rebuild and redefine yourself It might not be an easy journey but it s a journey towards a healthier happier you Don t suffer in silence fam Reach out speak up There are resources available life coaches therapists friends who can help guide you through your situation As I wrap up this Wind Down Wednesday remember this your worth isn t defined by anyone else You re strong you re capable and you re worthy of love and respect And most importantly you re not alone Stay strong and take care of yourselves And don t forget to follow Cousin Ed s Corner Podcast on Twitter IG FB and TT cousinedscorner mrmoodyshood djnaturel visit our website at https www cousinedscorner com and leave us a voicemail at 762-333-2032 Tell us what you think of the show leave a voice-mail at https www speakpipe com Cousinedscorner Thanks for tuning in and I hope you enjoy the episode Check it out at https www cousinedscorner com e What Love Got to Do With It Click here to visit this podcast episode
