Today episode talks about freedom and what it means to be “free”. Too often we take for granted the meaning of freedom, to most of us it means being able to go where you want if you want. As I have gotten older, I see I cannot go anywhere I want, not without consequences. People have been kept out of opportunities and upward mobility, based on their freedom level.
I can walk into an exclusive Golf club (I don’t golf) but I will be escorted out and could possibly loose my life. This episode explores a different kind of freedom risking it for others that really do not respect the sacrifice you would be making. I know people that will go to jail for a shoplifting and would not think nothing of it, where if I am with them we ALL go. A pound ass snicker is not worth my being handcuffed and sat in a car and being in the system. On the other hand if I see a person getting hurt, I have to decide never an easy decision, when its strangers. Its a fine line and I go into the issue deeper.

Todays episode is about the challenges and misconceptions of breaking generational curses. And by any means money is not the answer, it can’t be. If a person gets off drugs or whatever the curse is for that generation. If you can remember the curse you are still part of it.
This is not downing any one’s’ accomplishments at all, conversely it’s just to call some people’s attention to the future you. In a word, breaking generational curses is huge responsibility. It will not be easy and it requires you to talk to people you may not like, but the future is the goal. Let’s be clear, this is really only for people that want to see the future with them in it. Meaning, if you pass knowledge in this world you are always here. In my family, they still talk about my great grandfather. Even after all of these years. A story of his exploits would make a very good western. Besides, if there is no family to tell about him we lose a hero, someone that we came from who was strong.
Lastly, engage with family now just to talk about. Everyone will not be on board. Do not ridicule those who chooses not to be part of this family thing, preferably celebrate those that show up. In spite of businesses failing or prospering, the children are watching. Take your time and explain to them the losses and wins, the decision making. You do not have to make money to WIN. Just know what you’re playing for and make that the priority. Find happiness in seeing your kids grow strong and never having to go through what you went through. Breaking generational curses.

Griffinstein explores the issue of mental health with long time friend Lavette Grant. She talks about her day to day life dealing with depression, anxiety, and agoraphobia. Lavette believes that trauma in life, that is not properly addressed will manifest as mental issues. Anger, overly self conscious, and drug abuse are just a few ways it could manifest.
In the world we live in today scrutiny and stigma shapes the thoughts on mental health. It is not a weak condition, it is a call to action. Just like any other sickness you treat it so that life is manageable. Lavette will be kicking off her own podcast called “Loving My Growth Podcast” here on the Dark Network later this month. Where she will dedicate her voice to shining a light in the dark spaces. Please enjoy episode 22 of How Do You View You.

I sit down with Coach “Big James” Portlock, a Richmond native. James is a youth basketball coach for Salesians High School. He is also part of Team Rampage, a youth basketball league based in Vallejo. I have know James for about 35 years. We both grew up in Easter Hill, a housing project on the south side of Richmond. This was the 80’s and crack was in full swing. The things we saw in the streets was not for kids to see. And a lot of us did not make it, so I try to celebrate any of us doing good after all this time.
James is a father, coach, and a car salesman, and he feels proud to be each one. His daughter is his life, his reason for living. While coaching, serves as his way of giving back. Now as a car salesman, he explains that he is not trying to sell cars. He is in truth helping friends get the best car for them at the time. That perspective is what helps him stay focused at Kia of Oakland. James has been through ups and downs in his life he owned and operated his own dealership, but as he spoke about in the podcast it wasn’t his time and he is ok with that. He says it was not a failure, he learned from the whole process. And when the time is right he will do another dealership the best way possible.
Coach “Big James” Portlock has a lot of projects and dreams he has yet to achieve. A coaching job at a major college, hopes of bringing sports to Richmond, and to help people in need of help. He is a good dude and we will be checking in with him soon to check on his progress and see if we can help in any endeavors that he is undertaking. Everybody has a story. How Do You View You?
