The app for independent voices
Hey Friends, I’m here of Substack, and here is why I decided to leave MSNBC and go 100% independent with all my content.
Spoiler alert: I wasn’t nice to him.
I just want to say thank you to everyone who has reached out with kindness and encouragement, both personally and in these social media streets. So very proud of The Reidout @joy.msnbc.com team, who are truly family, and all of our supporters & friends. See you tomorrow night at 7 ET, one more time ‼️

Take a moment to reflect on how you're steering your own journey today.
Are there small adjustments you can make to move closer to your goals or embrace the changes happening around you?
Sometimes, it's the tiniest shifts in perspective or action that lead to the most profound transformations. 💫
Thank you for the restack!
I’ve had several conversations with people where they make it sound like they have no participation in the outcome of their lives.
Everything or everyone is at fault but them!
I like that your post shows that one is the driver of their own life and it’s up to you how you steer it and the outcome of your steering is absolutely yours to bear
I love this. Just a few degree shift in your direction changes your destination dramatically. Which is excellent news. We don’t have to make such a dramatic change to change our lives. Phew!
Right Savitree? It took me forever to figure this out. 🙌
Me too, Karen. Me too!
Yes! Sometimes it is the smallest shift in perspective!
Thank you Susan, yes! Sometimes when that happens I just sit in wonderment- why did I not do that earlier.
Thank you Salwa
Good advice :)
Thank you Elizabeth.
I love this! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you LG
This is very good reflection. It’s easy to point fingers and cast blame or others and/or circumstances. But ultimately, we are in the driver’s seat. The responsibility lies with us.
Indeed it does Lakeisha. Thank you.
Needed this reflection today Karen, thank you!
You are welcome Flavia.

Today, I celebrate 32 years of sobriety.
My life did not end, but instead began, on that night so long ago.
I have so much gratitude for the life I have been given.
Literally everything improved through sobriety.
May every being who struggles with addictions find freedom and peace.
