Twice The Work, Still Waiting On Recognition

What happens when effort doesn’t equal recognition? In this episode, I unpack the discourse around “Sinners” being denied proper acknowledgment—and why that conversation resonates so deeply within the Black American experience. From cultural labor to emotional discipline, from faith to fatigue, this is a reflection on what it means to work harder for less visibility, fewer rewards, and delayed validation. This isn’t a rant. It’s an honest examination of excellence, patience, and the tension between faith and fairness. If you’ve ever felt overlooked despite doing the work, this episode is for you.

By The Horns

phrase: “By The Horns” 1. to tackle a difficult or dangerous situation directly and fearlessly, without avoiding it. This is more about the process of coming to those realizations in life, to release those thoughts/feelings about yourself that aren’t the healthiest or situations that don’t require your presence, energy or attention. We’re still on the road of growing and progressing. Thank you all for your listening ear, I hope you continue to understand. -JVY FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA: https://linktr.ee/jvlil INSTAGRAM: _jvlil TIKTOK: jvy__ TWITTER: _jvlil

The Accountability Medicine

noun: accountability 1. the fact or condition of being accountable; responsibility."their lack of accountability has corroded public respect" 2. a form of trustworthiness; the trait of being answerable to someone for something or being responsible for one's conduct “Accountability tastes bitter going down, but it heals the sickness of excuses. It’s the medicine nobody wants to swallow, yet everybody needs.” It’s tough… sometimes. Being honest with ourselves FIRST is the main step. In this season, I’m learning more of what it means to hold myself responsible, whether it be for others and/or myself, especially with my goals and keeping a healthy alignment. I hope you can understand. -JVY FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA: https://linktr.ee/jvlil INSTAGRAM: _jvlil TIKTOK: jvy__ TWITTER: _jvlil

D.N.D.

When we hear “D.N.D.”, we refer it to Do Not Disturb. This time, however, it’s a different meaning behind it. The last 2 months have been something of a journey, but what path of growth doesn’t have the ups and downs? This is one of them. I hope you all understand. P.S. - this episode isn’t just for me. It’s for those who may be in this season as well. Whatever the healthy vice is to help you grow, stick to that and remain patient with yourself. Nothing’s too personal in this episode, but just know that I’ll always do my best to respect the space, the people and keep it as honest as possible. More episodes are coming soon. Yeet Yeet! - JVY FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA: https://linktr.ee/jvlil INSTAGRAM: _jvlil TIKTOK: jvy__ TWITTER: _jvlil

TURN THE TV OFF

Alright, the TV’s need to be turned off, internet disconnected, and brains on. It’s a lot happening at once, but common sense is being lost. This is just a TASTE of what Season 9 is going to be like. Love you all. -JVY FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA: https://linktr.ee/jvlil INSTAGRAM: _jvlil TIKTOK: jvy__ TWITTER: _jvlil
