Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Today marks 21 years of me choosing this woman as my assignment. 

We’ve been through so much as a team—our individual struggles, our individual growing pains, people who tried to strain our walk together, and so many other things that would have broken up the average union. But this is not average! And neither are we.  God is still in this!!! And that’s why we continue to love…through everything. 

Salli, I truly hope that on days like today, that you are reminded that this was a great life decision!  Happy anniversary baby and here’s to many more of them.

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - We ended prom season with a bang. @parker.whitfield your mom and dad are so proud of you. Enjoy your time in college. We couldn’t have asked for a better daughter. @nolimitfuqua I know you make your mother and father just as proud. @alldondre @nolimitfuqua @iamlelarochon @cairoscustomevents as always you did your thing. The balloon arrangement was fire. @makeupbyhendra you murdered her face. Thank you as always. @liza_vassell thank you for styling my baby like a Queen.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - As a parent, everyday of your life with your child, is about preparing them to leave you and prepare them for the matriculation of life. 

This week was both a celebration and a mourning.  My heart is aching…Because while my wife @sallirichwhit and I have worked extremely hard to prepare her for this moment in life, it never prepares our hearts.  While I'm celebrating that Parker is coming into her self and her womanhood, I'm also grieving over the the fact that she no longer my child. She’s my daughter! So mourning the loss of my child finds my heart extremely heavy. 

I trust that we have prepared her properly.  We just didn’t know that we wouldn’t be prepared for the heart ache. 

@spelman_college you got a great one who will become greater under your tutelage.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - This is what humanity sounds like.  I wish more of us, as human beings, could walk this out together.  I wish I could’ve given this brother some support during this time.  Because we all need love and compassion, as human beings. 

If something doesn’t happen in your heart while watching this then you may have given up on humanity.  And you are in serious trouble.  Because you are probably waiting patiently to finish dying…Help heal yourself by helping to heal someone else.  Be humane to humans.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Ladies, how many of you can accept this truth? One thing I love about my conversations with @alldondre is he’s going to break you down with some truth but he’s going to build you back up with some wisdom! 

Comment the word “GAME” to get access to my new playbook!

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Yes we are!!!!

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - You can’t always agree with what some people say, but I whole heartedly agree with @therealmoworldwide on this.  THAT’S NOT OUR BUSINESS!!!!! 

Even if THEY choose to talk about their trials and tribulations, it doesn’t mean that WE have to participate.  It just doesn’t. 

I read books that help me address key areas of my life that I want to improve. I’m passionate about things that help other people. So much so that I wrote a book that helps people do just that. 

So while I won’t be purchasing a copy of Jada’s book, she and Will have my undying support as a resource of information and instruction and a safe place to vent.  Until they make that decision, this is not my business.  Over and OUT!!!!!
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Some things are universally true.  No matter what color…Dads, real men, would NEVER allow their sons to disrespect their wife!  This woman being my WIFE trumps her being your MOTHER.  No one disrespects a man’s wife and not be held to account.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - My Valentine has been a dime for 26 years of my life. I love you baby and may we have 26 more happy Valentine’s Day.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - America, you will never know the pain you’ve caused so many of your finest CITIZENS!!!! 

i’ve said it before and I’m going to keep saying it, Black people, like this brother, are the TRUE patriots of this country.  Because despite all the pain that our own country causes us, we still show up every day to help make it as great as the world perceives us to be.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - There are so many things that I KNOW as a Man, a husband and a father.  But there are often things that I DON’T know.  And what I don’t know I trust that God does. 

As I head out of town to get my daughter settled in her next chapter of life, I don’t know what the future holds for her, but I know God does!!!! And that’s all I need to know!!!! 

Thank you @urbandenomination and @lisajohnsonsmith for creating a line that expresses my unwavering faith and why I am never in fear!!!!

And NO this is not a paid ad!

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - This is my tribe!  I am the father.  I am the leader.  It is the hardest job in the world but it is the most rewarding.  It is the most death defying and it is by far the most gratifying.  In the immortal words of my brother @thedavidaarnold (may he rest in eternal peace) “IT AIN’T FOR THE WEAK”! 

To every man who walks out his assignment as a father, biological or not, I honor you!!! You are OPTIONAL.  You are NECESSARY!!!!! 

Happy fathers day!

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - This is my brother @jolly_good_ginger twice over veteran who served in the military for all of you “patriots”. He is my brother because he tells the truth.  Listen…
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Normally I would have much to say about anything I post.  But this speaks for itself. 

Black woman, when you invested in the Black man like this, you will reap majors dividends.  We all need each other!!!! 

@missmarianna365 I am your brother.  Let’s do this! 

🎥 @somethingblackmade
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - If you’re angry at ANY of this.  You are not an American that believes is equal rights for all citizens. Just the ones who look like you.  You’re not a “patriot” that believes that ALL people who serve their country are patriots. Just the ones who look like YOU!!! If you aren’t upset over a man being killed in his own home with a registered firearm then you don’t believe in the constitutional rights of ALL people.  Just the ones who look like YOU?  And that’s the problem with America that has never been the “United” States.  And that’s a problem.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - I’ve gotten messages all week about this topic asking me how I felt about it and what my opinion was. So let’s do it. 

Soooooooo many women were on fire about that interview.  And I completely get why!  I just sat back, watched and LISTENED.  You may hear me speak a lot, and many of you acknowledge that I am a great communicator.  Well in order to be that you have to be a great LISTENER first!!!! And therein lies the problem.  Most people don’t LISTEN!!!! 

Far too many women (not all, but too many) fall for men because of their ACCOMPLISHMENTS. So THOSE kind of women immediately think that a guy is valuable because of his accomplishments and the perception of what that means monetarily.  Again, therein lies the problem.  Because when they heard Jonathan make the comment about “not knowing who Simone was” they immediately got offended.  Why?  Because that’s how THEY value MEN. Gold medals, Grammy’s, world championships, etc. 

Jonathan, like most men, doesn’t value his woman based on her accomplishments.  He, like most men, values his woman based on compatibility. 

So many women thought that he was diminishing her accomplishments because he didn’t value her because of them.  But again, LISTEN!!!! He values her because of what she IS!!! Not what she DOES!!!! 

And here’s what’s crazy, those same women are PISSED at Simone that she isn’t swayed by their energy.  And if we’re patient, those same women will turn on her and start talking about her height, complexion and her hair!!!! QUICKLY!!!! Why?  Because it was never about Simone in the first place.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Every woman watching this (the ones who say they aren’t are either lying or are an absolute ANOMALY) are CRINGING and nervous at the sight of this.  But this, for a father and a son, is ESSENTIAL in their bonding experience. 

Two important things to focus on as you watch this, 
1-If you listen closely to these boys, they are having a BLAST!!!! Couldn’t be having a better time than having their inner warrior/hunter/daredevil, activated and released in a safe place with their father.  This isn’t something that they will be encouraged to do with their mother.  They would be worried that they could actually hurt mom if they did roughhouse with her.  Their instinct is to love mom and hug her.  It goes against their nature to do this with mom.  It would be very confusing.  Because it requires the re-wiring of natures design. 

2-this is an extremely important activity for dad as well. Because any man who denies or tries to repress his inner kid quickly becomes a depressed man. So we have to learn how to find ways to stay connected with the inner kid in us while simultaneously being the protector and provider for those around us. It speaks to our overall health.

While we are in this powerful month, I celebrate all the Black fathers who do the things that go unnoticed and and unappreciated.  Being a father is the most THANKLESS job on the planet.  Even when a young man or woman achieves greatness and gets a second on camera, the first thing they say is, “hi Mom!” You can’t find a restaurant to make a reservation on Mother’s Day. But on Father’s Day you could virtually walk in to the majority of restaurants that you know and sit down like it’s a regular day. 

Being a father, particularly a black Father, is a thankless job, and for that I send a gigantic shout out to all Black dads. every day society is telling you that you don’t matter. And that you are replaceable and that you are optional.  You are NOT.  You are raising and protecting a nation.

Carry on @mrspb2 I see you brother.  Well done.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Unfortunately, too many people who see this post will think that it is suggesting that men are more important than women. And that’s one of the biggest problems we have in our society. We are so worried about being in competition with each other that we’re not paying attention to how we could be in concert with each other.

If you were making a cake two of the key ingredients in a cake are flour and eggs. Because they are the chief binders of the other ingredients. They are the thing that keeps the cake from falling apart. It doesn’t mean that one is more important than the other , it simply means that when one isn’t present something is going to go terribly wrong with that cake. When a father isn’t present, something is going to go extremely wrong with that daughter or son. And that’s not a feeling that is a fact!!!!! 

Dennis Prager touches so many things that I often talk about.  And one of those  things that is so dynamic is that a boy needs a model that he can mirror. And that a girl needs to find safety and security in her father, or she will go around trying to find it in other men. 

Men, I have said this in the past and I will continue to say it—you are not optional ! you are necessary!!!
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Very rarely does anyone ever ask what the effects of racism are on Black and Brown men are.  How it affects our daily routines and interactions-On our personal and professional relationships!! Daily!!!!! 

Join us as we examine these things on the next episode of The HueMAN Podcast.  Airing on our You Tube channel, Friday, October 13th, 2023.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - We have lost one of the OG’s of this thing!  @officialrichardroundtree you will forever be a “bad muthafu**ah”!!!! 

You were always kind, gracious and always made me feel like we were cohorts! Equals. Despite your gigantic stature you never made me feel like I was any less significant.  You always made me feel like a King even when you had the biggest crown.  You taught me so much in that powerful gesture. 

I finally had the nerve to tell you that you were one of my heroes. Only to hear from you at your 80th birthday party, how significant my life was to the lives of other men because of my purpose work.  That was rocket fuel for me. 

Again, my brother, you are my hero!  Rest in eternal peace. 

I honor you and celebrated you.  Now and always!!! 👑✊🏽

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - In one of our upcoming episodes of The HueMAN Podcast (on You Tube) we talk about the affects of RACISM on Black and Brown men. 

This is a clear demonstration of what men of our Hue are denied of of daily-our hueMANity! When any person is treated as less than human it is devastating.  But somehow when a Black man is treated less than HUeMAN, society seems to think it devastating for us.  Now think about how we have to endure this kind of treatment on a regular basis and what the affects are.

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - “Shut up!!!” Mrs Serita Jakes channeled Little Richard when she succinctly broke down marital commitment.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - As my sister @rebeccahall said, “you can’t choose HOW you PRESENT.” But I say, you can choose WHAT you REPRESENT!!! 

Rebecca, I see you.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - @michelleobama and I could teach a class.  Too many of us, as parents, are out here trying to be our kids FRIENDS. I have told my kids whenever they get beside themselves, “I’m not your FRIEND!  I’m your FATHER!” Now don’t get me wrong, I work hard at having a LOVING relationship with my daughter and my son.  But just because it’s loving doesn’t mean we’re PEERS or FRIENDS.  You can be a confidant and not have the dynamic of being a peer.
There is such a thing as firm but LOVING
accountability. You can be a friend to your daughter or son once they LEAVE your house!!!!! But as long as you are the ultimate accountability partner, and they live under your roof, being their “friend” is a dangerous approach. And the quicker we get away from concept of “friends” the better off society will be because we will be raising great CITIZENS.  Remember, a child that disrespects their parents will disrespect ANYONE!!!!
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Ladies??? Did you pick your man to be “fit” for purpose? Or did you pick a male to “feel” like passion? 

@malevsman
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Y’all ain’t ready to hear this…y’all still want to have a conversation about how HE isn’t perfect or how SHE wasn’t perfect.  Meanwhile you are FARRRRRRR from being all the things that you demand in someone else!!!!! Get yo’ pad and pen and takes notes.  And then get yo’ behind in gear and apply this.  Immediately!!!!
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - What she was really asking was “what happens when you’re dating a man who’s being more HUMAN than you?” Because being HARD is a LEARNED behavior!!!!! And you have to consciously unlearn or undo those behaviors. 

Sisters, listen CAREFULLY—if a man doesn’t show up “soft” or “vulnerable” with YOU he will KILL YOU with his frustrations and angers.  He’s making himself safe for you by not being his warrior self with you.  And if you think he doesn’t HAVE a warrior self and he’s always “soft” and you can’t respect that, then ask yourself why you’re with him. Because that becomes more about you than him.  And remember, if it IS about him then don’t be with him.  So again, everything comes back to SELF…for men and women. 

Merry Christmas.

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - My baby and her show, Winning Time for HBO, was nominated for a Critics Choice award.  She is a rockstar of a director/producer. It is for sure her super power.  And this is one of the receipts. 

Congratulations baby. I couldn’t be prouder of what you do and how you do it!!!!
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - My brother Jon Stewart asked the question and I’ll wait on the answer…even though I already know what it is…#DividedStatesOfAmerica
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - to my sisters—-If all you’re doing is screwing or wasting time then you are NOT dating him.  Stop fooling yourself…because that’s the ONLY person you’ll be fooling.  Get the deuces and get up out of there.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Listen to my sister friend @chelseahandler break it down.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - This is a LENGTHY post because it was almost a LETHAL position!!!! 

I could have lost my career, reputation or even my LIFE—all over false claims and “isms”. Bias’ such as racism, sexism, and others like it play a huge part in daily encounters.  And this story is but one of them. 

People are making life DANGEROUS for people like me by trying to use the police as a weapon against us. 

Black men, be mindful…👑👑
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - People take themselves too seriously. I don’t… so I introduced my son Dré to Phil Collins’ Sussudio.  I’m pretty sure I scarred him for life but he gets the point. Lol.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Jim Carrey is an astute human being.  This is precisely why we all need to be true to ourselves.  Acting is what I DO. But it is NOT who I AM!!! Figure out who you are and be true to yourself.  Sage words….
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - I love my people. Black people have been doing this throughout history.  Black people have been serving humanity since the beginning of time.  Ironically, Black people have been the target of inhumane treatment all over the world, despite being the earth’s caretaker! 

I am proud of being cut from this cloth…I am proud to be a Black man!!!!✊🏽👑

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - There are so many things here that I can barely stand it.  But off the top of my head let’s deal with these lunchables first—

1-when people from underserved and under resourced communities, particularly people of color, feel like they have to break the law to give their children “a chance at a future” society rarely sees their humanity. 

2-Felicity Huffman was sentenced to 2 weeks in prison for this crime.  While other women, Black women, have gotten lengthy sentences for trying to send their children to better public schools outside of poverty stricken environments by falsifying their residence. 

3-This woman has made millions of dollars. Her daughter would have been fine. The guy told her that her child wouldn’t get into the colleges SHE wanted.  Not that she wouldn’t get into ANY colleges!!!! So now this comes down to your wants and not your needs. 

4-And lastly, allowing your child to find her way based on her own merits doesn’t make you a bad mother.  Teaching her that she deserves MORE than her ABILITIES, and to break the law and cheat other people out of their rightful place, does!!!
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Ok, so YES!!!! Today is the day that I come for this issue.  POLICING!!!!! While I don’t think that ALL Police officers are bad, I do believe that the MAJORITY are COMPLICIT!!!!! Because when they see bad policing, they either SAY nothing, DO nothing or BOTH!!!! And that’s a problem!!! 

So listen to my nursing sister break down her experience with officers.  And her point of view is a valid one. 

Say her name. #Sonya Massey
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - You ain’t hip hop if you don’t know this brother.  Magoo or Maganoo (known but those close to him) was a Killah with his flavorful delivery.  As soon as you heard his voice, you knew, MAGOO!!!! 

RIP brothah man! I’m goin to be bumpin dis in da ride, windows down, all week in honor you 👑✊🏽
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - This is me anytime I feel like I’m under attack…which is pretty frequent.  If I were doing things to harm my people or people in general I’m sure I’d have many more doors opened. But they would be the wrong ones. And I’m ok with that. 

I pray for blessings in order to be a blessing.  It’s my assignment in life. 

Send prayer hands 🙏🏽 and a heart ❤️ for yourself and those who have this mindset to move the needle for humanity. 

Shout out to my sister @traciblackwell who sent this to me and some great spiritual warriors.  And thank you mama Tina for sending it to her.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - I don’t attempt to try to get through to the “patriots” of this country who consistently pretend not to get it. So my intention with this post is to feed those who simply don’t understand how the effects of slavery are still very much prevalent in today’s society. 

Brother Bryan Stevenson eloquently and accurately states that slavery didn’t end it just evolved. No statement could be truer than that.

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Recently my sister @iamjulieharnold shared this video with me.  I never saw it before.  All I remember was he said there were so many things he wanted to talk about after reading it.  Seeing this- his excitement and enthusiasm about my work lifted me in a great way. 

His stand up class taught me how to be a better comedian and I pray that my book  helped him to become a better man. 

@thedavidaarnold I’m missing you my friend. I’m honoring you and the father that you have been to your babies @anna_grace_arnold and @ashlyn_arnold01  I know they have many men covering them but you KNOW I got them too! ✊🏽👑
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Black man, this is who we were intentioned to be when we were created.  Society portrays you as a monster and few people truly understand all that you endure daily.  Too many things are working to get you to ignore your purpose in life…This is who you are…now let it be what you do!!!

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Happy Mother’s Day to best mom a man could have for his children .  @sallirichwhit  You are simply the best baby.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - I am deeply saddened by the loss of brother Carl Weathers. 

At a time where it was OK to be manly and masculine, brother Carl showed us what that could look like and not have to feel ashamed for being it. 

Brother Carl, your talents were deeply appreciated, and you will be missed. Your work as Apollo Creed will forever cement you in the minds and hearts of your audiences. And one of my all-time favorites, Predator, stands out for me whenever I want to watch one of my nostalgic favorites. You smashed both these roles as only you could. 

Again, you will be missed, my brother. Rest well, King…you have walked this journey well.

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - As a MAN, my life is about facilitating the growth of my family.  As I wrote on my book, that sacrifice is the assignment of every man!!!! And sometimes that sacrifice may even be on your own birthday! 

Today, as I celebrate my birth, I additionally celebrate every man that accepts and executes this divine assignment.

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - The Iowa Caucus was won by a person accused of assisting in an insurrection of the capital. And this interview is evidence that maybe there’s something in the water there. And that’s as nice as I can say that.  Smh.  Wow. 

In anything else people would be quick to label this mental illness. I call it a lack of mental willingness. 

America? Is this what you mean by “patriotism”? Asking for a friend and a few ancestors.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Being disconnected from our biological fathers causes us great pain. Every man needs a model that he can mirror. And when our biological father is not that model, the effects can be devastating. 

We often get very angry at our fathers, because they didn’t give us what we needed to matriculate into manhood. Unfortunately, our fathers can only give us what they had. And when we reconcile the trauma of our fathers and the lack of information and instruction that they had, it will effectively address the animosity that we have toward them.

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - My sister @realmichellehurd breaking it all the way down. 

I love the ART that I do in this industry but I hate the BUSINESS of this industry. 

Most people don’t make the kind of money that you think they make.  That’s a very small percentage of us.  Most people that are seen guest starring on television are often times living worse off than the people watching them.  And this industry doesn’t give a damn!!!! Never has…smh.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - If you know anything about me you know that I love my kids. 

My daughter makes me proud to be a father.  And I state that often.  And I’m sure that my wife is so happy to have a daughter that in many ways mirrors who she is as a woman. 

Well as a father, I couldn’t be prouder to have a son @drewhitfield_ , that in so many ways, mirrors what I model as a man!!!! 

Son, today is your birthday and I can’t tell you how proud I am of your trajectory in life!  You are everything that I prayed for in a son and becoming so many things that I could only dream of of.  I’m proud that you are taking what I give you that is in my, but prouder of your journey of becoming who you need to be that’s outside of what I am.  I’m certain that God is proud also. 

Happy 15th birthday son and man of God.  I celebrate you.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Brother Tim Wise breaking it down again.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Rottweilers are one of the funniest breeds on the planet. And Deuce is by far one of the greatest dogs I’ve ever encountered in my entire life. Our family is so lucky to have him. He always makes me smile and always gives me positive energy. Even when we’re joking around. And as you can hear, he is always very vocal. As many Rottweilers are…
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, one of the BEST directors in television.  Not best women, not best Black women…best DIRECTORS!  Insightful, succinct, overly prepared and blessed with vision.  She is Salli Richardson Whitfield. 

I have been a basketball player for most of my life and a fan of the game for all of it.  The accuracy of how these scenes have been crafted for visual consumption is SPECTACULAR. This is Winning Time and it’s on HBO!!!! Check it out.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Forgive the language being used but sometimes it is necessary to hear it raw and uncut…

I say this often—“it is very difficult to be what tou dont see.” 

We often MIRROR what has been MODELED for us!! And here is further evidence to drive home the point.  Brother @tyrese lays it out for you in simple terms. 

This is why I do what I do…so we can break this generational curse!  Not of ABSENTEE fathers.  But if UNINFORMED fathers!!!!!
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - If I’m being completely honest, (and that’s the kind of thing that gets most people cancelled nowadays) far too many women that I encounter and the vast majority that I counsel, are not prepared to be with a man when he is strong enough to be HUMAN!!!! 

It takes a lot for a man to be EVOLVED enough to be more than just “angry”. Human beings should be allowed to FEEL sad, frustrated, discouraged and even depressed at times. 

As an evolved man that’s strong enough to be HUMAN, it doesn’t mean that we’re incapable of still being a protector and provider while we go through the full range of emotions that God made us capable of feeling.  Speaking personally, I can still kick behind and be nurturing whenever the moment calls for it. 

Ladies, take notes.  Your man is a human being. And if you’re allowed to be human, (which you often are) he should be too!!!! 

Shout out to @pastorkeion my sister @iamshaunie and @laterrasrwhitfield  this was good for the soul. ✊🏽👑
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - There is an opinion that there are far too many men who are more feminine than ever.  Along with many women who are more masculine than ever. I can’t speak to the woman issue because that’s for our sisters to work out in themselves. But I will speak to this notion about men being more feminine than ever before. 

These kinds affirmations and practices may indeed fall under the category of being a feminine practice as opposed to a masculine practice. But let me further state, and this is the most important part, that when a man goes through these kinds of things to resuscitate and restore himself-and even to build his son into a more whole man, its really speaking to the humanity of that man. And if you are a man who practices this and you encounter a woman who does not, or you encounter a woman who is more comfortable being in her masculine state of being, then they absolutely will call you a feminine man. And not realize that you are simply a man trying to be more human than anything else. 

Being more human doesn’t mean that I won’t still kick your behind if you hurt or harm me or my loved ones.  Being more human doesn’t mean that I still can’t bench press 225 lbs.  And it doesn’t mean that I won’t still be a lion in the bed room. It just means that I don’t allow those things to define who I am as a man!!!!!! 

And therein lies one of the biggest issues in our community. We can’t even recognize that all of us have been denied the ability to get back in touch with our humanity!!!!!
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Boys need love and affirmation.  Love and affirmation from mom gives them care and comfort.  But love and affirmation from dad gives them courage and confidence.  Let’s go dads.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - One of my sister friends hit me with @violadavis post.  And this was one of the cards.  It speaks so much to what I take pride in being for everyone I encounter.  Particularly my family and extended family.  Be it.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Grievance politics, and cultural wars are always on the ballot. My sister, @sunny broke this all the way down.  The long game!!!!!! @theviewabc
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - This is a simple one.  MEN, we have to love our wives! LISTEN, to them. Then, LISTEN to them again…then when you’ve done that…LISTEN some more!!!!! Make SURE your woman is HEARD!!!!!! After you HEAR her, HUG her! Once you HUG her, HOLD her.  Let her know she’s in safe and secure hands. Lastly, just as we need her to submit to our direction, we need to submit to her direction as well. Remember, this is a PARTNERSHIP!  Which means this works BOTH ways or it WON’T work!  She NEEDS your love. Ans she earned your love the day you decided to commit to her. 

LADIES, men are the simplest of creatures to be in relationship with. All we truly need is RESPECT.  It’s at the center of our peace!  Without it, it’s like we’re being starved.  It’s the cheering and applause of our hearts that we need to keep going into battle OUTSIDE the home. And it is further, the fuel we need to be dedicated to service INSIDE the home.  Without respect you are killing your man and your relationship.  Your husband NEEDS your respect. And he EARNED your respect the day he decided to commit to YOU fully.  His dedication to YOU and your FAMILY, on a daily basis, is worthy of enough respect to be shown. Respect him by speaking with a soft tone. Respect him by having sex with him (you are his only source for it) Respect him by considering him- tour are a representation of HIM.  The easiest way for the world to HURT him is through YOU!!! Lastly, CAN’T show him respect (for whatever reason) then you need to LEAVE that relationship AMICABLY. Because without that respect in place it will eventually end on its own! And often will end TRAGICALLY!!!!! 

Tag your partner and someone who needs to hear this.

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Today is one of these boys first day of high school.  Not sure whether its Dré or Deuce, but both woke up ready for it…

@sallirichwhit and I couldn’t be prouder to have two freshman this year.  @drewhitfield_ I’m high school and @parker.whitfield in college.  Wow.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Ok so who’s the thug.  I’m confused.  Because society says that Black men are thugs.  Yet it OBVIOUSLY is this small white woman with a badge who’s supposed to be a “peace officer”. Instead she’s a “PIECE officer”! Because if you’re places in her care you’ll be left in pieces!!!! America, thugs don’t get determined by COLOR.  They get determined by CHARACTER.  And this woman has NONE!!!! From her maniacal “yeahhhhh” to her street  language while in uniform to her obvious enjoyment in doling out this painful experience.  Take her badge, her gun and her pension.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Two different energies.  Two different powers.  Not better.  Just DIFFERENT.  NOT BETTER!!!! Just DIFFERENT.  WATER and FIRE.  Different.  Opposite.  But often used for a common good and a useful purpose!  Questions?????
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - 🎥 @thehueman_experience 

From being abducted to receiving negligent health care, our Black women NEED us Black men to protect them and stand for them!!!!! So don’t be fooled when you hear the noise coming from social media and a few misguided representatives that tell you that they DON’T need us!!!! We see proof of the contrary on a daily basis.  Men of our hue were meant to be the protector of safety and the provider of stability!

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - @wojespn in plain English. Questions?
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - WARNING!!!!! This could be triggering…

And THIS is why encounters with the police for BLACK MEN are so traumatic.  It’s why the incident that I recently posted about with someone who called the police on me for NOTHING had me so enraged!!! Because these incidents are so mentally taxing, but men are suffering in silence DAILY!!!! 

Trauma, is not exclusive to one gender!!!! Men and boys are suffering as well.  And often it becomes deadly!!!! And the mere notion that the deadly encounter is possible is compromising men and boys mental health.  Particularly, us “good ones”. Why? Because you could be shot and killed, at a bar like this or for walking your dogs and someone weaponizes the police because they don’t like you. 

These instances have to STOP!!!!!
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Wow!!!!! One of the best days of my life finally came today!!!!! There is a saying about young boys and there progression in life -“the only person who will happy that you are better than him, is your father!!!!” And this couldn’t be a truer statement. 

I try to be as good as I can be to try to give my son a bar that he can strive to surpass.  And that time is here.  I couldn’t be happier or prouder of you, son. @drewhitfield_ I love you like you’ll never understand until you have a child of your own. 

Keep striving and keep kicking my butt.  It will serve as a reminder to me that you are working hard!!!! 👑 #ProudDad

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Check this out…you’re going to have people do this to you your entire life.  Because we live in a fallen world.  And not just strangers!!!! People who say they LOVE you.  Unhealthy people will ALWAYS make you the problem.  Because if THEY are the problem then they have to do work on themselves. 

These kinds of people can do work on anything OTHER than themselves.  In fact, the ones that need the most work on SELF do the most work on THINGS!!!! Projects, jobs, etc.  But won’t use that sweat equity to heal themselves. 

Identify these people in your life and protect your heart.  And continue to do YOUR work on SELF!!!
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - This is for all my brothers.  This walk  as a man is TREACHEROUS.  at times it’s gonna feel like you’re everyone’s enemy. At times it’s gonna feel like you can do nothing right in everyone’s eyes. At times your planting season feels like it goes on forever. At times it feels like the harvest will never come. But trust that everything that you are doing has a reason and a season. And that God will honor your heart if it is in alignment with the divine. Keep walking. 👑✊🏽
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - I don’t know who this woman is but she is a genius for this.  So many of our women think that the only thing we care about is that “thang”. Young minded guys who have not matriculated their way toward manhood ONLY care about sneakers and sex.  But MEN, dedicated to being of service to their woman and their circumference want and NEED affection attention.  Hugs, kisses and touch.  We don’t often talk about it but always crave it. 

And for all the genius’ who can only respond with, “it works both ways”, DUHHHHH. We know that.  So just take this and apply it. 

So here’s a question for the ladies—

Were you ever taught or did you ever think for yourself, that the only thing that MEN (not males) NEED is sex?
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - You wanted the smoke and we came with it. 

A powerful conversation between me and my sister @love_mcpherson about the essential ingredients to a healthier and more whole version of a relationship and marriage. 

Get ready for part 2!!!!
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - To all of my dads out there, this is for you!!!!
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - I want to give a special shout out to my son @drewhitfield_  today.  He played a phenomenal round of golf in his tournament but came to moment where he had to make an important decision-win with dishonesty or lose with honor. 

In a world where everyone encourages you to win at all cost, my son chose to call a penalty on himself, which cost him two strokes and probably the tournament. 

As a father, I can’t tell you how proud, I am of him. While it hurt his score in golf, it helped his score as a man in development. And that is the most important thing in life. 

Dré, while today hurts, this is only a moment. But your manhood is a movement. Your scorecard is temporary.  Your manhood is forever. As your dad, coach and counselor, I celebrate you and honor you#!!!! Your
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - I often talk to my son about this. Whether it’s about his trajectory as a student, a golfer and ultimately, a MAN!!!!! Things will always “happen”. Most of those things that happen do so for the sake of leveling you up!  So change your perception of why they’re happening and stay calm.  As I titled the third chapter of my book MALE vs MAN- CALM IN CHAOS!!!! Do it…
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - I’m too smart to make a statement on this subject. Because too many people will be speaking from their feelings and not from the facts.  But in light of Father’s Day, I have to address this.

Society keeps talking about the fact that we have far too many guys who are way too feminine. And women are saying that they’re too masculine because they are surrounded by feminine men. Could being overly mothered and under-fathered be the reason?
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Dr Nina…you are a woman and a queen of the highest order!!!! Because you recognize who the enemy is…and it’s not your husband!!! 

Too many couples suffer from this syndrome. A man who makes less initial money than you do does not mean he isn’t the man for you. And it definitely doesn’t mean he’s not a great man. It simply means that you have skillsets that are viable in a specific portion of the job market.  Nothing more. Nothing less.  It didn’t even make you smarter or a better leader!!! Again, It simply means that your skillsets have found the proper place to garner a better wage. 

Your man or your husband who makes less, is not your enemy.  The enemy is anything or anyone that comes between your union.  And that has nothing to do with money.  A union is about roles and position INSIDE the house.  Not position and power OUTSIDE the house.  Because marriage is about collaboration and not completion. When you get that concept you will be setting yourself up for marital success.
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - @alldondre and I took everyone to church tonight with this live!!!!
Dondré Whitfield Instagram - The HueMAN podcast, dedicated to dealing with all the things that effect men of our hue, is coming!  This is where Black and Brown men can level up and where the women who are in our lives can learn what makes us who and what we are. 

We couldn’t be more excited to be of service with this purpose work.  Get ready to join us and tell your village to join us too.

Dondré Whitfield Instagram - Succinctly put by my brother @jeezy. 

I will NEVER be changed by the world.  I am only interested in and determined to changing the world.  And for that reason I get met with a lot of opposition.  Sometimes from the people I aim to help and somethings from the people that are closest to me.  It’s meant to discourage me.  But it won’t happen.  God put me here to walk out this purpose!!! And that I shall….

This week was both a celebration and a mourning.  My heart is aching…Because while my wife @sallirichwhit and I have worked extremely hard to prepare her for this moment in life, it never prepares our hearts.  While I'm celebrating that Parker is coming into her self and her womanhood, I'm also grieving over the the fact that she no longer my child. She’s my daughter! So mourning the loss of my child finds my heart extremely heavy. 

I trust that we have prepared her properly.  We just didn’t know that we wouldn’t be prepared for the heart ache. 

@spelman_college you got a great one who will become greater under your tutelage.

If something doesn’t happen in your heart while watching this then you may have given up on humanity.  And you are in serious trouble.  Because you are probably waiting patiently to finish dying…Help heal yourself by helping to heal someone else.  Be humane to humans.

Even if THEY choose to talk about their trials and tribulations, it doesn’t mean that WE have to participate.  It just doesn’t. 

I read books that help me address key areas of my life that I want to improve. I’m passionate about things that help other people. So much so that I wrote a book that helps people do just that. 

So while I won’t be purchasing a copy of Jada’s book, she and Will have my undying support as a resource of information and instruction and a safe place to vent.  Until they make that decision, this is not my business.  Over and OUT!!!!!

Dondré Whitfield - 9.8K Likes - I’ve gotten messages all week about this topic asking me how I felt about it and what my opinion was. So let’s do it. 

Soooooooo many women were on fire about that interview.  And I completely get why!  I just sat back, watched and LISTENED.  You may hear me speak a lot, and many of you acknowledge that I am a great communicator.  Well in order to be that you have to be a great LISTENER first!!!! And therein lies the problem.  Most people don’t LISTEN!!!! 

Far too many women (not all, but too many) fall for men because of their ACCOMPLISHMENTS. So THOSE kind of women immediately think that a guy is valuable because of his accomplishments and the perception of what that means monetarily.  Again, therein lies the problem.  Because when they heard Jonathan make the comment about “not knowing who Simone was” they immediately got offended.  Why?  Because that’s how THEY value MEN. Gold medals, Grammy’s, world championships, etc. 

Jonathan, like most men, doesn’t value his woman based on her accomplishments.  He, like most men, values his woman based on compatibility. 

So many women thought that he was diminishing her accomplishments because he didn’t value her because of them.  But again, LISTEN!!!! He values her because of what she IS!!! Not what she DOES!!!! 

And here’s what’s crazy, those same women are PISSED at Simone that she isn’t swayed by their energy.  And if we’re patient, those same women will turn on her and start talking about her height, complexion and her hair!!!! QUICKLY!!!! Why?  Because it was never about Simone in the first place.

Dondré Whitfield - 9.3K Likes - Every woman watching this (the ones who say they aren’t are either lying or are an absolute ANOMALY) are CRINGING and nervous at the sight of this.  But this, for a father and a son, is ESSENTIAL in their bonding experience. 

Two important things to focus on as you watch this, 
1-If you listen closely to these boys, they are having a BLAST!!!! Couldn’t be having a better time than having their inner warrior/hunter/daredevil, activated and released in a safe place with their father.  This isn’t something that they will be encouraged to do with their mother.  They would be worried that they could actually hurt mom if they did roughhouse with her.  Their instinct is to love mom and hug her.  It goes against their nature to do this with mom.  It would be very confusing.  Because it requires the re-wiring of natures design. 

2-this is an extremely important activity for dad as well. Because any man who denies or tries to repress his inner kid quickly becomes a depressed man. So we have to learn how to find ways to stay connected with the inner kid in us while simultaneously being the protector and provider for those around us. It speaks to our overall health.

While we are in this powerful month, I celebrate all the Black fathers who do the things that go unnoticed and and unappreciated.  Being a father is the most THANKLESS job on the planet.  Even when a young man or woman achieves greatness and gets a second on camera, the first thing they say is, “hi Mom!” You can’t find a restaurant to make a reservation on Mother’s Day. But on Father’s Day you could virtually walk in to the majority of restaurants that you know and sit down like it’s a regular day. 

Being a father, particularly a black Father, is a thankless job, and for that I send a gigantic shout out to all Black dads. every day society is telling you that you don’t matter. And that you are replaceable and that you are optional.  You are NOT.  You are raising and protecting a nation.

Carry on @mrspb2 I see you brother.  Well done.

Dondré Whitfield - 9.1K Likes - Unfortunately, too many people who see this post will think that it is suggesting that men are more important than women. And that’s one of the biggest problems we have in our society. We are so worried about being in competition with each other that we’re not paying attention to how we could be in concert with each other.

If you were making a cake two of the key ingredients in a cake are flour and eggs. Because they are the chief binders of the other ingredients. They are the thing that keeps the cake from falling apart. It doesn’t mean that one is more important than the other , it simply means that when one isn’t present something is going to go terribly wrong with that cake. When a father isn’t present, something is going to go extremely wrong with that daughter or son. And that’s not a feeling that is a fact!!!!! 

Dennis Prager touches so many things that I often talk about.  And one of those  things that is so dynamic is that a boy needs a model that he can mirror. And that a girl needs to find safety and security in her father, or she will go around trying to find it in other men. 

Men, I have said this in the past and I will continue to say it—you are not optional ! you are necessary!!!

You were always kind, gracious and always made me feel like we were cohorts! Equals. Despite your gigantic stature you never made me feel like I was any less significant.  You always made me feel like a King even when you had the biggest crown.  You taught me so much in that powerful gesture. 

I finally had the nerve to tell you that you were one of my heroes. Only to hear from you at your 80th birthday party, how significant my life was to the lives of other men because of my purpose work.  That was rocket fuel for me. 

Again, my brother, you are my hero!  Rest in eternal peace.

I finally had the nerve to tell you that you were one of my heroes. Only to hear from you at your 80th birthday party, how significant my life was to the lives of other men because of my purpose work.  That was rocket fuel for me. 

Again, my brother, you are my hero!  Rest in eternal peace. 

I honor you and celebrated you.  Now and always!!! 👑✊🏽

Dondré Whitfield - 7.5K Likes - In one of our upcoming episodes of The HueMAN Podcast (on You Tube) we talk about the affects of RACISM on Black and Brown men. 

This is a clear demonstration of what men of our Hue are denied of of daily-our hueMANity! When any person is treated as less than human it is devastating.  But somehow when a Black man is treated less than HUeMAN, society seems to think it devastating for us.  Now think about how we have to endure this kind of treatment on a regular basis and what the affects are.

Dondré Whitfield - 6.7K Likes - @michelleobama and I could teach a class.  Too many of us, as parents, are out here trying to be our kids FRIENDS. I have told my kids whenever they get beside themselves, “I’m not your FRIEND!  I’m your FATHER!” Now don’t get me wrong, I work hard at having a LOVING relationship with my daughter and my son.  But just because it’s loving doesn’t mean we’re PEERS or FRIENDS.  You can be a confidant and not have the dynamic of being a peer.
There is such a thing as firm but LOVING
accountability. You can be a friend to your daughter or son once they LEAVE your house!!!!! But as long as you are the ultimate accountability partner, and they live under your roof, being their “friend” is a dangerous approach. And the quicker we get away from concept of “friends” the better off society will be because we will be raising great CITIZENS.  Remember, a child that disrespects their parents will disrespect ANYONE!!!!

Dondré Whitfield - 5.9K Likes - What she was really asking was “what happens when you’re dating a man who’s being more HUMAN than you?” Because being HARD is a LEARNED behavior!!!!! And you have to consciously unlearn or undo those behaviors. 

Sisters, listen CAREFULLY—if a man doesn’t show up “soft” or “vulnerable” with YOU he will KILL YOU with his frustrations and angers.  He’s making himself safe for you by not being his warrior self with you.  And if you think he doesn’t HAVE a warrior self and he’s always “soft” and you can’t respect that, then ask yourself why you’re with him. Because that becomes more about you than him.  And remember, if it IS about him then don’t be with him.  So again, everything comes back to SELF…for men and women. 

Merry Christmas.

Dondré Whitfield - 4.9K Likes - There are so many things here that I can barely stand it.  But off the top of my head let’s deal with these lunchables first—

1-when people from underserved and under resourced communities, particularly people of color, feel like they have to break the law to give their children “a chance at a future” society rarely sees their humanity. 

2-Felicity Huffman was sentenced to 2 weeks in prison for this crime.  While other women, Black women, have gotten lengthy sentences for trying to send their children to better public schools outside of poverty stricken environments by falsifying their residence. 

3-This woman has made millions of dollars. Her daughter would have been fine. The guy told her that her child wouldn’t get into the colleges SHE wanted.  Not that she wouldn’t get into ANY colleges!!!! So now this comes down to your wants and not your needs. 

4-And lastly, allowing your child to find her way based on her own merits doesn’t make you a bad mother.  Teaching her that she deserves MORE than her ABILITIES, and to break the law and cheat other people out of their rightful place, does!!!

We often get very angry at our fathers, because they didn’t give us what we needed to matriculate into manhood. Unfortunately, our fathers can only give us what they had. And when we reconcile the trauma of our fathers and the lack of information and instruction that they had, it will effectively address the animosity that we have toward them.

I’m proud that you are taking what I give you that is in my, but prouder of your journey of becoming who you need to be that’s outside of what I am.  I’m certain that God is proud also. 

Happy 15th birthday son and man of God.  I celebrate you.

Dondré Whitfield - 2.7K Likes - If I’m being completely honest, (and that’s the kind of thing that gets most people cancelled nowadays) far too many women that I encounter and the vast majority that I counsel, are not prepared to be with a man when he is strong enough to be HUMAN!!!! 

It takes a lot for a man to be EVOLVED enough to be more than just “angry”. Human beings should be allowed to FEEL sad, frustrated, discouraged and even depressed at times. 

As an evolved man that’s strong enough to be HUMAN, it doesn’t mean that we’re incapable of still being a protector and provider while we go through the full range of emotions that God made us capable of feeling.  Speaking personally, I can still kick behind and be nurturing whenever the moment calls for it. 

Ladies, take notes.  Your man is a human being. And if you’re allowed to be human, (which you often are) he should be too!!!! 

Shout out to @pastorkeion my sister @iamshaunie and @laterrasrwhitfield  this was good for the soul. ✊🏽👑

Dondré Whitfield - 2.6K Likes - There is an opinion that there are far too many men who are more feminine than ever.  Along with many women who are more masculine than ever. I can’t speak to the woman issue because that’s for our sisters to work out in themselves. But I will speak to this notion about men being more feminine than ever before. 

These kinds affirmations and practices may indeed fall under the category of being a feminine practice as opposed to a masculine practice. But let me further state, and this is the most important part, that when a man goes through these kinds of things to resuscitate and restore himself-and even to build his son into a more whole man, its really speaking to the humanity of that man. And if you are a man who practices this and you encounter a woman who does not, or you encounter a woman who is more comfortable being in her masculine state of being, then they absolutely will call you a feminine man. And not realize that you are simply a man trying to be more human than anything else. 

Being more human doesn’t mean that I won’t still kick your behind if you hurt or harm me or my loved ones.  Being more human doesn’t mean that I still can’t bench press 225 lbs.  And it doesn’t mean that I won’t still be a lion in the bed room. It just means that I don’t allow those things to define who I am as a man!!!!!! 

And therein lies one of the biggest issues in our community. We can’t even recognize that all of us have been denied the ability to get back in touch with our humanity!!!!!

Dondré Whitfield - 2.4K Likes - This is a simple one.  MEN, we have to love our wives! LISTEN, to them. Then, LISTEN to them again…then when you’ve done that…LISTEN some more!!!!! Make SURE your woman is HEARD!!!!!! After you HEAR her, HUG her! Once you HUG her, HOLD her.  Let her know she’s in safe and secure hands. Lastly, just as we need her to submit to our direction, we need to submit to her direction as well. Remember, this is a PARTNERSHIP!  Which means this works BOTH ways or it WON’T work!  She NEEDS your love. Ans she earned your love the day you decided to commit to her. 

LADIES, men are the simplest of creatures to be in relationship with. All we truly need is RESPECT.  It’s at the center of our peace!  Without it, it’s like we’re being starved.  It’s the cheering and applause of our hearts that we need to keep going into battle OUTSIDE the home. And it is further, the fuel we need to be dedicated to service INSIDE the home.  Without respect you are killing your man and your relationship.  Your husband NEEDS your respect. And he EARNED your respect the day he decided to commit to YOU fully.  His dedication to YOU and your FAMILY, on a daily basis, is worthy of enough respect to be shown. Respect him by speaking with a soft tone. Respect him by having sex with him (you are his only source for it) Respect him by considering him- tour are a representation of HIM.  The easiest way for the world to HURT him is through YOU!!! Lastly, CAN’T show him respect (for whatever reason) then you need to LEAVE that relationship AMICABLY. Because without that respect in place it will eventually end on its own! And often will end TRAGICALLY!!!!! 

Tag your partner and someone who needs to hear this.

And THIS is why encounters with the police for BLACK MEN are so traumatic.  It’s why the incident that I recently posted about with someone who called the police on me for NOTHING had me so enraged!!! Because these incidents are so mentally taxing, but men are suffering in silence DAILY!!!! 

Trauma, is not exclusive to one gender!!!! Men and boys are suffering as well.  And often it becomes deadly!!!! And the mere notion that the deadly encounter is possible is compromising men and boys mental health.  Particularly, us “good ones”. Why? Because you could be shot and killed, at a bar like this or for walking your dogs and someone weaponizes the police because they don’t like you. 

These instances have to STOP!!!!!

People who say they LOVE you.  Unhealthy people will ALWAYS make you the problem.  Because if THEY are the problem then they have to do work on themselves. 

These kinds of people can do work on anything OTHER than themselves.  In fact, the ones that need the most work on SELF do the most work on THINGS!!!! Projects, jobs, etc.  But won’t use that sweat equity to heal themselves. 

Identify these people in your life and protect your heart.  And continue to do YOUR work on SELF!!!

Young minded guys who have not matriculated their way toward manhood ONLY care about sneakers and sex.  But MEN, dedicated to being of service to their woman and their circumference want and NEED affection attention.  Hugs, kisses and touch.  We don’t often talk about it but always crave it. 

And for all the genius’ who can only respond with, “it works both ways”, DUHHHHH. We know that.  So just take this and apply it. 

So here’s a question for the ladies—

Were you ever taught or did you ever think for yourself, that the only thing that MEN (not males) NEED is sex?

Society keeps talking about the fact that we have far too many guys who are way too feminine. And women are saying that they’re too masculine because they are surrounded by feminine men. Could being overly mothered and under-fathered be the reason?

Too many couples suffer from this syndrome. A man who makes less initial money than you do does not mean he isn’t the man for you. And it definitely doesn’t mean he’s not a great man. It simply means that you have skillsets that are viable in a specific portion of the job market.  Nothing more. Nothing less.  It didn’t even make you smarter or a better leader!!! Again, It simply means that your skillsets have found the proper place to garner a better wage. 

Your man or your husband who makes less, is not your enemy.  The enemy is anything or anyone that comes between your union.  And that has nothing to do with money.  A union is about roles and position INSIDE the house.  Not position and power OUTSIDE the house.  Because marriage is about collaboration and not completion. When you get that concept you will be setting yourself up for marital success.

A man who makes less initial money than you do does not mean he isn’t the man for you. And it definitely doesn’t mean he’s not a great man. It simply means that you have skillsets that are viable in a specific portion of the job market. Nothing more. Nothing less. It didn’t even make you smarter or a better leader!!! Again, It simply means that your skillsets have found the proper place to garner a better wage. Your man or your husband who makes less, is not your enemy. The enemy is anything or anyone that comes between your union. And that has nothing to do with money. A union is about roles and position INSIDE the house. Not position and power OUTSIDE the house. Because marriage is about collaboration and not completion. When you get that concept you will be setting yourself up for marital success.

I will NEVER be changed by the world.  I am only interested in and determined to changing the world.  And for that reason I get met with a lot of opposition.  Sometimes from the people I aim to help and somethings from the people that are closest to me.  It’s meant to discourage me.  But it won’t happen.  God put me here to walk out this purpose!!! And that I shall….
