Today's show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time y'all don't know y'all have a sun giving them like the million bucks things in the stubbings me true good Steve together for I don't join me. You gotta use that turn you you gotta turn to turn them out. Turn You haven't got to turn them out to turn the water the water go. Come come on your thah, I shall will. Good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice, Come on dig me now. One and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Man. What an amazing blessing. God has given me my health, my dreams, all of it. God gave it to me. I accept it. I work hard, but man on, man on, man, I work hard is something that He gave me a gift. And that's what I want to talk to you about today, because God has gifted everyone, so I can't help but believe it. You are gifted in some way. Something about you it's specially and unique. That doesn't mean you're the only one that can sing, or you the only one that can write? Are you the only one that can draw? You're the only one that can decorate? Are you the only one that can network? Or you're the only one that that's not what it means. Or you have a great scientific mind you can figure things out, or you're good and problem solving. You're not the only one, but you are a unique individual. Nobody will travel the exact path that you own. Nobody will have everything happened in a series of circumstances in the order that you're going to have it happened to you. That's what I mean when I say that you are unique. But now because you are gifted, you know you have something you have to do. You know, there's a scripture. It's in Proverbs, Proverbs eighteen and sixteen. I've been trying to be a little bit better at that for you, you know. So when I have an idea and I know where it is, I have somebody looked the scripture up from it handed to me. So it's in Proverbs eighteen sixteen. And this is the layman's term of it. It says a man's gift make room for him and brings him before great men. It is your gift that will make room for you. Now my interpretation of this is this. Now I could be wrong. Please go to your local church, Synder God Temple, mass. Whatever you do and go get clarification. But what my gift has done in making room for me is I've taken it almost in the literal sense. My gift has actually made room for me. It has cleared paths for me. My gift has opened up doors for me. That's what I take it as. It'll make room for you. My gift has is broadened my ability to travel. My gift has opened my eyes to fashion. My gift has caused me to be able to provide for my family. My gift has caused me to be able to reach more people. That's what I'm saying in terms of it will make room for you. That it may be another interpretation. I'm just telling you how I took it, that it's worked out pretty good for me to that understanding. But I'm pretty sure Bishop Jake's, Joel Oldstein, Ken If Alma, you know God, Glenn Staples, Bishop Glen Staples, these guys give you much better understanding of it. I'm just giving it to you, you know where I know how sold you, I don't know. I just like to keep it right there. But and then it says that it brings you before great men. I mean, you know it's gonna take you places. It's gonna take your places you never thought of going. You're gonna meet people because of your gift. I told my son, who two of them are good photographers. You'll be taking pictures of great men. And then I messed with him. You already take the pictures, say your daddy. You know I'm messing with him like that. But that's just me and them just kicking it. But you know, but one day, who knows, you could be shooting the president. You know, you could be shooting some foreign dignitaries. You know, you could be shooting great sport events. You know, you never know where it could take you. But that's your guift. What you gotta do is you gotta get to move and though. See, you can't have your gift and not do nothing with it. See. You know what that reminds me of. It's something that my father used to say, get up off your butt because you're sitting on a gold mine. He's say that all the time. Boy, get up off your butt and move it because you're sitting on the old mind. I never really quite got that when I was little, but now that I'm an adult, I got it full well. See a lot of you are sitting You're sitting on a talent or a gift that you have. You're sitting on an ability. I don't care if it's making cakes or pies. That's a gift, man, that's a talent. I don't care if it's the ability to do hew, that's a gift. Man. Half of you are gifted. A lot of us are gifted, and we're sitting on it, looking at other people wondering what can I do to make it? You already got something to make it with. If you would just get up off your behind, man quits sitting on that gold mine. Some of you are tech savvy, just a whiz is when it comes to engineering and putting stuff together and cables and wires and computers and stuff. And now you steady looking around trying to figure out, man, wonder what I can go do? How about you go do that? You know it ain't that hard, man, if you would just take note of what God has given you already. He has given you a gift already. He has already given you a talent. Now the fact that you ain't using it and you're sitting on your tail somewhere now, who fathers. What we're talking about, Well, what you you blaming God for that? Man? I tell you what. I sit around people all the time who are gifted, and I'm looking at their gifts, and they steady complaining about what they don't have, but will not get up off there behind and use the gifts that God gave them. And it's frustrating. It's gotta be frustrating for you if you're doing it, because it's frustrating for me when I see it. So when these people come to me and ask me for help, I just keep going the same thing over and over. Help yourself, man, do for you use your gift. It's a cat sitting behind the wall right now, that's locked up. That's so good at artistry. It's catch in that tattoo and everybody, man, get out do it the right way. Quit selling drugs, man, You ain't going no where's selling no drugs. You're going to jail. And if that don't do it, somebody gonna get tired of you're selling drugs because they're gonna want to sell them over and they're gonna kill you. Let's just keep this thing real for just a second here. Come on, man, get up off your butt because you're sitting on the gold mine, and you're sitting up here, somebody always looking for a shortcut to the top. Ain't no shortcut. Somebody told me this the other day. Man, the road to success is always under construction. It ain't paved, it's got detour signs on it. It's got slow men working. Sometime they flip the stop sign. You gotta sit there and wait. Sometime they got slow. That's traffic. That's accidents. Somebody on the road holding up things with a flat tie, its nails, its gravels, This spike's everything. The road to success is always under construction. It ain't getting ready to be easy just because you didn't decided to do it. But don't sit around on your behind and complain all the time about what you don't have. My daddy said it, Man, get up off your butt, because you're sitting on a gold mine. You got a gift, you got a talent, you got something that you can do that could make a way for you, but you won't do it. It is within you. Stop looking around. Here's where people waste the most time on the road to success, looking around at somebody else trying to figure out. Man, how can I do what they did? Do what you do? You ain't jay Z, You ain't. Sorry. I got a couple of your homies told you you rap better than him. But you're not jay Z. Really you're not. You know, all of us then shot at him, but we ain't Richard Pryor a nice shot Steve, Bernie Dierre, all of we took some great shots at it. We're not him. Do what you can do? Do you do your gift quick complaining about what you don't have. Get up off your butt because you're sitting on a gold mine. You're listening ste ladies and gentlemen and boys and girls. Here we are again, And I'm just must say, I know it's you know, there's got to be a time limit to when you stop saying Happy New Year. You know how many days in is it supposed to be? I think we passed that time. But we are still celebrating life. And twenty twenty two can be one of the greatest years of your life if you lay claim to it. But you have to claim it. You have to live a life of expectation that great things are coming your way, because that's the law of attraction. It works whether you believe in it, honor it, or adhere to it. It is a known fact that you attract the things you think. If you think poor, you'll be poor. If you think rich thoughts, riches will come your way. If you don't believe it, try it. Thank you, Shirley Strawberry Carlin for real, the girl from mississipp Be Monica or Junior and the legend the King of Pranks, Nephew Tommy. They just here. It has begun, Junior Horse, on your mind. I'm gonna tell you exactly what's on my mind. Let me ask you something. Um, do you know in your life how much has been in love cost you? Why? Why? I noticed in love has it cost you a lot? Well, let me say, listen to you. Uh, it's really, Junior Horse, it's all about you know. Forget these songs that talking about I don't need nobody all this blah blah blah. Everybody want to be somebody somebody. Everybody wants to feel special to somebody. Everybody needs to experience love. So stop talking about it in terms of cost as in dollars. It is going to cost you your time. It will cost you at times your freedom. It will cost you at times your will of choice. It will cost you at time moments of peace where you want to be alone, but because you're in love, you got to be with somebody. So it's going to cost you in every aspect of your life. All you want to do is be in love with somebody where there's a benefit to being in love and there is a return on your investment of love. So my question is to you, don't you think as a young man that you would be more of You are in a fortunate position if someone were to love you, being as how knowing how you are. Yes, it was, yes, it was okay. Then get on with the whatever it costs factor. Get that out your minds in love with you too, get all this out your mind about what's coming. I'm saying that's a rich man. That's what I like to see that you know a different positions. Let me tell you something in love ain't gotten to do it rich right, all right, all right, thank you for that.

Yes, I know, I'm sorry about that, but uh you know, yes, I have I have my reasons. So okay, okay, Well here's what's going on. The officials at the church I've gotten together and this is what they've decided on, is that anybody who is late starting next Sunday, there would be a fifteen dollar charge for that for coming in and disrupting services. Fastest tide of service being disrupted by people walking in late. That that could not come at a worst time. I don't have fifteen dollars to give. I don't. I don't have it. Oh um, look, I'm sorry.

Do you know I worked two jobs or two jobs, and they always trying to take money out of my check, always trying to pull me here and there, and I'm always tired. I get two hours asleep, and then now the church wants to dump another fifteen dollars charging me for being at church when that's what I'm supposed to do. But you're coming in late though, you know what? You know what late ain't bad? Okay, I might be delayed, but I ain't denied, and I'm getting there the best way that I know how. We're on the bus.

And coming up it is Asked the CLO Chief Love Officer Steve Harvey. Coming up right after this, You're listening to Steve Morning Show. Coming up at the top of the hour, We're going to check in with Steve's voicemail eight seven seven twenty nine. Steve also a programmer. A reminder another hilarious and I do mean hilarious with a capital H episode of Judge Steve that happens tonight at eight seventh Central on ABC and Hulu. Now it is time for Steve's favorite segment. It's called Asked the CLO Chief Love Officer Steve Harvey in the building for your love questions. This one's from Anika and Rochester. Anika writes, this year marks the fifth year of my celibacy, and I need to know if I'm doing the right thing or if I should enjoy life and take the good with the bad. I'm fifty four years old and I hope to be married. The next time I had sex. I just got tired of giving in to men and then they disappear on me. Life is short, so should I live it to the fullest or stick to my principles and keep holding out. Well, I think it seems to me like the holding out part is a little bit more self controlling for you. You're not being used, you're not being scarreded. You don't have to feel like, you know, men just coming in out of your life and going out. You know, of course, we all human being. We have flesh, so we got desires. But I mean, it's been five years. You spared yourself a lot of pain like that. Now, if you think going on living your life to the fullest means going back to the way you had it, then what was you celibate for in the first place. You have to when you think about stop doing something, think about what made you start doing it in the first place, and it may be the best thing for you, and you never know when, Like often say, God, it's gonna flip the switch, So it could be any day now. But if you turn around and give up, you might lose. I'd hang in that with it if I was here, you're done five years? Here you fifty four? Yeah, all right, all right, Kelly and Duncanville says, I'm married to doctor Jekyll and mister Hyde. My husband is the sweetest man in the world when it's the two of us at home. But the minute he gets in public, he's super irritated with everything and everyone. His road rage is scary, and he's so rude to waiters and waitresses it's embarrassing. What should I do? Quit taking his ass out of the house. He don't get to go all right, he can't go to dinner no more, and he damn show can't dry. Yeah, what's wrong with him though? That? But how are you? No? No, it's hard to be rude to the people that's going in the back to get your food to bring it back out in the front. What's happening in the back is really really bothered me. Yeah, you gotta be nice to them. You need to sit out and talk to him about what the issue is for starters. You need to fix that road rage too. That's a that's a problem that Yeah, that's dangerous. Yeah, that's a lot of mad ass people driving, So blow the horn at the wrong one. Okay, what his daylight, all right? Is that he could have just found out? He owed Stanley, we are moving on Stanley and Birmingham says. My wife got a new job, new lashes, new clothes, and she's been wearing wigs for the first time ever. She's not doing this to impress me. It's for the women at work, she said. The competition is fierce, so she had to step her game up. I don't like clown makeup and wigs. How do I get my old wife back? WHOA? Well, the competition at work has come from the internet. If you look at it, it's a look now, it's that Nicki minaje, Kim Kardashian looked that all these young people want. I mean, if you look at it, that long hair all the way down to you, but straight, the lip line of the contour nose, the long eyelashes all is this the Kim kardash and Nicki minaj look and she then fell into it. And that's it. Like you said, itda ain't for you. She had competition down at the job step her game up clown makeup. Yeah, you know, might be bad. He about too though about though, because he'd rode in. He's stupid. Feel you saying something earlier about the eyebrow to forehead ratio. That's space. Well I've noticed now you know, everybody want to have baby hell, And I've learned understand filters better because if you look at a woman on her page, if you look at these pages, the color of the skin that's closest to the hairline, it's different than the skin just below it. That means you need to look at that real clothes. Let's with the baby hair, y'all, what is that? What is that? That's just style? You know, But you can't have a whole head a baby hattle. You can't have a baby hair look like you don't have on a wig or have piece? Right, you got extra hair you can pull down in the front. That much mean, well, you just put the hair on the wig. That's what you're doing. Smooth that down. I don't know how that. I don't know that. You don't need to know everything, all our secrets. All right, here we go. Bam in Indianapolis says I recently flew to Ohio to visit a man that I met online. I found out he's married, and then he went ghost on me. I fell for the lies when he asked me to get a hotel room and pay for my own flight. I should have known something was up. So am I wrong to expect him to reimburse me for the money I spent? What? What? Well? I mean? You just said he ghost at you. If a man then't ghosted you? Yeah, how are you gonna get? All you gotta do is change his number and you out. You don't know where he lived because you got the hotel. Why would you fly to somebody for the first time and get your own hotel in your own ticket? How'd you sell yourself that cheap? Yeah? Just make some desperation? Yeah yeah, lady, Come on now you want you fail for that? Come on, now you want some money? You ain't fitting getting no money back? This? This you bought this lessons? Yes, well that's the Louis of a time bag out the window. Care don't play yourself? Yes, man, come on, now, you could have had a Louis. Yeah, bag, I'm married. Let that man go. You're right, Clo. She should have known something was up. That that's your instinct. She should have listened your intuition. She knew something was up in the beginning. All women know something's up if it seems funny or strange, that show intuition telling you that it is. Don't ignore it period. You listen to intuition. That's right, I mean seriously, all right, running and end up costing you. Yeah, all right, thank you, cello, great advice. As usual, coming up at the top of the hour, we'll check out Steve's voicemail eight seven seven twenty nine Steve. Right after this, you're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, here we go Steve to voicemails. We go eight seven seven twenty nine. Steve. This one's from an inspirational caller. Let's just say, hey, mister Steve Harvey, you have been an inspiration and I want to say thank you. I've leaped off that cliff. I put the lead of faith. I went out there. I had a job that I was going to be making one hundred and fifty thousand a year. I quit that job to go out there to be an entrepreneur. In two thousand and nine, my dad passed away on January thirty first, two weeks later. I heard your voice for the first time on a morning inspiration and you have inspired me since then. And I just want to say thank you. I heard you, big bro. I heard you a million times a million. You said, think bigger than what anything that only God can't be able to give you the answer to it a million times a million. I would love to share that with you one day. And it's all in the houses. Thank you man, Thank you. People hear you, they love you. They'll here, they're listening. It's a lot of us who's taking that leap of faith. And we are on that path because once you got a million upreneurs, we're a million dollars. That's the trillion dollars and we can do. Love you, big bro. Thank you again, mister Steve Harvey. You are the man. You don't know if you reach people. Yeah, that was that was that was powerful. I appreciate that man from the bottom of my heart. That's that. But you know what that's that. That's God's grace. Man. I mean you, you can't cut a deal for it. God just gives it to you. And something he didn't gave me the desires of my heart so many times, and and and upped it. Heiter took the desires of my heart and put some grace on it to got me where I ain't. I ain't even asked for that. And look up, got that too. Ye got another one, Shirley, All right, more boy smell Steve, this is um. Remember you do the closing remarks about haters. Drop the mic. Let's go see. I I listened to you this Saturday. You're closing remarks the most beautiful words I have heard in a long time. You may say dropped the mic. You should have dropped the mic that time. The coach, you really let your haters know that it's all about them, because God used them to put you where you are, to show you where you had to go. Because I believe that it had not been for them hating on you. You might not applied to tart, but you then you got it and you're moving on and you got gre awesome. I love you mine, And you know what, man, I was just about to say, I want to change the hater closing remarks. I want I want to redo it. Because I wanted to add some more to it, because I've been thinking about it, because it's really one of my favorite closing remarks, because I just because it really opened up my heart man, because I was I was handling these haters wrong. And then God just started exposing to me. Don't listen to me, man, you need them. Let me show you what I did. And he just revealed it to me one morning I was meditating. He said, every time they did this to you, it caused this. I want to just show you something. And I really started looking at it, man, and like the lady said, they didn't know, man, but they made me work harder, they made me focus, they made me dry. But the biggest gift haters gave me they pushed me up under the wings of my heavenly fathers and tucked me under that hey man, like I was thinking, Man, you know what I actually thought. For the people who actually kicked me and thought they was kicking me off to the clifford kicking me off the cliff, They actually just kicking me into the and into my Lord and save his arms. That's all they did. Man. When they laughed about me behind my back, they just made me strong. You know the one thing, man, the count of the only thing that really bothered me about the haters was dudes in the barbershop. That that's the one that bothers me the most because I've always prided myself on being a man's man, and I know I am because there's not a man living who knows me who don't know that about me. I mean, if you know me, you know that about me, then I'm a man's man. I made a lie of mistakes with females or who ain't, but when it comes to brotherhood, manhood or locked in on that thing right there, and I'm really really good at that. I'm an expert at it. So when brothers in the barbershop be talking about me because they ain't got all the facts or they'd have jumped off the bandwagon, you know, man, that really kind of bothered me because I go, damned dog, y'all too, because I'm a man's man. If you meet me as a man and you don't like me, I'm telling you, man, really, it's because it's something wrong with you, dog, because really, as a man, I really bro you really, you come home, man. You can't meet me and not know that I'm that dude right there. But now, even though the brothers in the barbershop bothered me, the brothers in the barbershop helped me out too, because a lot of them cats in the barbershop was really cats that I thought I was cool with. And that was the other purpose of the haters too, so I could stop thinking somebody was really all right with me and they really wasn't. Because you know, sometimes man, it's just important to know who they are. It's important to know who people really are in your life, and you got to have certain circumstances to bring that about so you can now know the truth about them. But it ain't everybody right, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Oh man, I got some great dudes in the barbershop. Yeah, there's some great dudes in the barbershop that love me. That to defend me. That a stand up from me, But he comes to them cancing that it just, you know, want to jump on the bandwagon. You know, trolls is everywhere. I appreciate the brothers that defend me, that say, hey, man, that ain't how that dude is. Y'all don't know how he is, So I appreciate it. Go both ways. But thank y'all man from bottom of my heart, thank y'all. All right, coming up in twenty minutes after the hour, we'll talk to our good friends from but Up Melanin skincare products.

Please welcome to the show, the fabulous Dorian Renaud. Good morning, Welcome, good big honor to be here this morning. Well, thank you, Dorian, thank you so much, Um and congratulations. This is phenomenal what you've done. We love the products, We definitely love the I'm using it. Thank you. Yeah, this whipped butter, this whipped body butter. Yeah, you got my bone head, your sun. I'm thirty three and I got a ball here too, so I needed it as well. Man. So so let's talk about the butter products story. And they are based around raw, natural and organic shay and specifically formulated for melan and rich skin. What inspired you to do the butter line specifically for our skin? Well, I mean, you know, I'm from both my Texas small town and I grew up in Louisiana, grew up in Houston, And I mean, I would say the inspiration came from seeing the beautiful black and brown faces around me. My dad had a barbershop, shoe shop. He was an entrepreneur, still live, and I saw him making people feel good, you know, whether they were going to a funeral, whether they were going to a wedding. You know, you had to come in and get that self care at a young age. And I realized that and I had problematic skin growing up. I mean, I'm talking about dark sparks, type of pigmentation, acting, anything you could think of. And as I entered into the entertainment industry, you know, in front of the camera, I realized, you know, I didn't quite look like myself like I did on television. I was saying, So, you know, it started from a little bit of famous, but then you know a lot of people started reaching out to me after I really found some shape butter on the streets of New York modeling, and I mixed that with a gentle cleanser and about him a C serum and start working for me. And so you know, I found that people, especially black men, black women, were embarrassed and they were asking me and my DMS or in person, hey, what do you used to be a skin? I'm really struggling with it. And so you know, I brought my formula and my routine to the streets about three years ago, and now we've grown into over twenty five products over just a short amount of time because of the supporting, really the education that we provide. Well, you didn't help a lot of assh your people, because this isn't I have hang on, hang on all right, Joran, hang on, We'll be right back. Okay, okay, right after this, you're listening Morning show. We are back with our very special guest, Story and Renaud, owner and CEO of Butter. That's b ut T a h. It is a skin line for melanin and rich skin that's for black and brown people. He's our special guests this morning, and we just love your products. We want to say that my favorite is the whipped butter. That's my personal favorite. Oh yeah, you go into these stores a lot of times, you send a lot of money on these products, and you look at commercials and you know, up until now, you don't really see much representation of us. And you know, I try to provide education so that people were melanan and rich skin know how to take care of their skin and that it's the ingredients in the products that really like work for us. And so you know, the community and everybody that really has supportive Butter and such a short amount of time, so it's really made it successful. But the inspiration always comes from home in the heart of being a black man and seeing our beautiful black mother and and you know, all the different shades of black grown up in the South, Okay, well, I love seeing men with beautiful skin as well. And we've got to commend you jury and on the success of your line. You own it, you operated at the black owned business. It employs black women. I would position absolutely absolutely it's important. I mean, I see beauty through my eyes, but it's important to have black women around me to understand beauties through their lands. And so I have an all black female executive team who's around me and everybody out and my factory in Florida, you know, is multicultural, and so it's important to have women involved because you know, as a man, you know, you look at the woman's skin and I don't know the circles you go through. I don't know what you know what what makeup does to your skin. So I had to do my research, I had to get in the lab. I had to listen to my sisters, my brothers. He was they needed. And that's why I did Butter, and that's why we continue creating products. You know that pretty much the audience asked for and to the Steve Harvey Nation, We're doing a Butter sweep steak.

We got it for you here. It is just Strawberry letter, subject and love and terrify. Dear Stephen Shirley. I'm thirty two and my boyfriend and I have been together for six months. He's a great guy and everything I hoped for in my second husband. Yes I say husband because he's been talking about marriage already. We're both divorced and ready to settle down, so we got the important stuff out of the way early on. I get along great with his parents, and my mother loved him. He's in a rental and I own my home, so he's planning to move in with me. I have fallen for this man and I can't see myself living without him. But there's one thing I don't love, and that's his size. The first time I got married, I was really young and inexperienced, and I had no idea how small my first husband was. I had nothing to compare to because he's the only other man I've been with. The first time I was intimate with my current boyfriend, I called my doctor the next day because I was sure something was broken below. She let me know that everything was fine, and she gave me some items that would help with intimacy. None of that stuff works, and I feel like I am letting my boyfriend down every time he tries to make love to me. Talked about it, and he assured me that he loves me and he'll be patient with me. He also told me that he's never had this problem with the female before. My doctor told me there's nothing wrong with my body. He's just too large. I'm terrified whenever he starts coming on to me, but I try to play it off. We had a heated talk about our sex life recently and he admitted that he's disappointed and this could be a big deal breaker for him. How can he make our intimacy the main focus? Does this mean we're not compatible? This letter threw me a bit in the beginning, and I got to say, this is a problem that many women would love to have, and I'm sure many men would love to have the same problem. We've had many, many letters about the size of men and all of this, but it's usually go ahead. We've had any letters about the size of men, but usually it's a complaint about them being too small, which was the case you say with your first husband. But we've never had a letter if I can remember, Steve, I don't know if I can remember about a man being too large. And I guess there's a first time for everything. You say your new man is way too much for you, and now you're terrified to have sex with him. But you've checked with your doctor and you've been checked by her, and she said you were okay, and actually she said you were better than okay. She said you were fine. He said, your new man said he would be patient with you, but his patience is running out. This could be a deal breaker for him, he's saying, And you know, I guess understandably so, because he would want to have sex with you if you're going to be his wife, but you still haven't been able to. Then you said your doctor also said there's nothing wrong with your body and he's just too large. I mean, I don't really know what to tell you in this in this situation, I mean, you guys might not be compared to compatible. You know, there could be such a thing as this going along. I mean, women have babies every day and all of this um. But listen, I don't know what to tell you, honestly, unless it's mental or something like that. If you can't physically, you can. But the doctor listened to what the doctor said, Steve, Wow, Well you know I understand, Shelly do you say we've never had a letter like this and everything? But you know this is like this is like so so up my alec Oh really, people for writing in, you know, because game you know, you know, game recognized game right, and uh so I have a solution, but we're gonna have to get to the solution in the second half of this call. Well, let's just go with some fact because I'm too like Sherley, I was very confused at the beginning of the letter because he's everything you wanted in your second husband. You're both divorced, You've gotten all of him important stuff out of the way. You get along with his parents and mom, your mama love him. You know, he's in a rental, I own a home. Your sounds like something for me. Were talking about off the app he's planning to move in with me. You know, I failed for this man. I can't see living without him. Blah blah blah blah. And then that's one thing you don't love. That's his size. Not quite natural. I'm probably like Sherley was reading this letter. Thing what very small. We got small problems, you know, got something hem And then the first time I got married, you know, then you started talking about how you was young and inexperience and you had no idea how small your first husband was because you didn't have had nothing to compare to. And then you got intimate with his current boyfriend, and you call your doctor the next day because I was sure something was broken below, which means you know, you know, came up in there, you know, you know, putting it in work. You know, it's just up in there. You know he was whoop, he was aggressive. Let's just say he was overly aggressively. You thought something had broke. She let me know that everything was fine, and she gave me some items that could help with intimacy. I don't know what that was, you know, I have well, I do know what they gave me, but you know that ain't what it's let about. None of that stuff works. I know that's called homeboard, homeboard, break all that up, you know all that little stuff you didn't bought back from the doctor homeboy, and was damn about that right there. And you know I got some I got some stuff. You need to give him. You need to give him some stuff because none of that stuff work. And I feel like I'm letting him down every time I try to make good of you. When I come back, I had an answer for you. Hold it all right. We'll have part two of Thief Crazy Response coming up at twenty three minutes after the hour. Today's Strawberry Letters subject in love and terrified. We'll get back into it right after this. You're listening, come on, Steve. Let's recap today's strawberry letter. The subject is in love and terrified. Well, that's thirty two year old girl who felt and found a man in her dream, second marriage for both of them, and everything worked out everything. She go on a home he read he gonna move in with her. The girl mama, loving parents, love her, everything going on. She has a problem with his size though I thought he was too small. Turned out through it's just the opposite, because she didn't know how small A first husband was because she didn't had nothing compared to so she thought he was doing something. Then when homeboard came in and put his work helmet on. See homeboard came in the set that igloo cooler down next year to bed and put that put that hat on, that hard hat on, and set that igloo cooler down next to the bed, and crawled up in there on one knee off that bed. And he went up in there and with the work came up in there. Board like a thrown ass man came up in the work. And you know who came up with some artillery boy came up in there there, You know, he up in there with he came up there with military terms and and and and and that, you know, excavation devices and came up in there with mussel launchers and call call up in there with stuff near you with you know, you're in here playing with the little boy. Had the little tenant bad the boy and came up in the bard with some stuff that they don't even sell in the gi Joe is no more, you know. So he came up in there and putting in work and it came up there so where you went to doctor next day, You thought this man broke some because he'd better been there just clowning. You know, he all he up on all ten of his toes, just black. He just got his toes flex. He help in there, just let nickta. And so anyway we have a problem. And now the doctor and gave you some stuff to help you deal with this. But the problem ain't chew because there's nothing wrong with you. It's just the often told you he's too large. So see he got started taking stuff. You know. So now I don't hard to tell you this hill, but you got to You got to get him to the point where he gets excited a lot quicker. It's what I'm trying to tell you. You got to give him to get to where he going faster so he ain't in there creating damage. And so what I'm about to tell you as how this is going to work. Doctor told is nothing wrong with your body. He just too large. I'm terrified when he started coming on me, but I played off. We had a head talk about our sex life. Recently, he admitted he's disappointed and this could be a big deal breaker for him because he's never had this problem with a female before. He says he's never had this problem with a female before, but he ain't with nobody though. Is he's had a problem some women had just walked out us his life, just got up and gotten the car, drove off and never called her back. Nothing to do this no more with you, his partner. You ain't find to come up in the hill like you're looking for all every evening. We're not fend to do this. So how can he make our intimacy the main focus? Does this mean we're not compatible? Well, here's what has to happen. You have to have a talk with this young man because he's thirty two. See he going going at just the same way he's been going at it, and it's creating a problem for you. So now here's what has to happen. He has to change his depth perception. He has to change his depth perception, meaning he has to change what he think d is. See it's like a swimming pool in a cave. And these are the two analogies I have for you. See, you can drown in five feet of water, or you can build you a swimming pool is down to thirteenth foot, end on it with a diving board. But you can drown in three feet a water. So what you got to do is get him to start drowning in less water, which means he got to quit jumping in this pool like he on the deep end. He got to come on on this shaller end and get involved in the water in a different way. Church, say, man, a man, man. I know y'all don't know what I'm talking about. Yeah, see, he got to set Let me give you an example. He is a cave dweller. He's a man with a helmet on with a mining light. If he liked to go in cave, what he has to learn is he can't go all the way in the cave. He gonna had to get happy by just to be an indicave. He can't go all the way to the back of this cave. He is to learn to stay at the front of the cave because it's too much back there. We thank you. He got to learn how to stay at the front of the cave. Now, well, what you have to do is you have to make the front of the cave the focal point. It has to be everything. I have a lot of knowledge on this subject because I had you know, I've had to be understanding and now I just you know. I just people who had the best life they can have. Now are they compatible? Not sexually, They're not compatible section And it's not going to work unless he changes a couple of things to his death perception. He gotta he has to change what he thinks d and then he had to play at the front of the cave. Quit trying to go all in the back. Thank you. Post your comments untime.

We are not Sean P. Diddy, Combs or Jay Z. That Joe said, there are levels to wealth. Okay, you agree with that, Steve. It's it's absolutely true as levels to it. Your level can be just fine. If you put looking over somebody else's, right, you know you really can get on and enjoy your life if you couldn't looking at the life you don't have. Yes, right, But let me tell you something though. I was. I was doing that recently, looking at somebody's life that I know what it was, and they make a considerably an amount of money more than I do. And somebody asked me, one of my partners say, man, I bet you trade lives with him. I said, I bet I wouldn't because with all the money you have and all the worldly possessions I see you with that I don't have. I look in my life and I would not trade my life for his life. You don't know what that person's life is like. And you don't know what they're going through. I'm telling you, man, you might be in way better shape than you think. Yeah, because somebody's missing, somebody got issues in their life. I don't care who they are. And somebody's lacking something. But I lacked for nothing. You know, I don't. I don't need anything. There's a lot of stuff I won't but I don't need nothing now, man. But you but it's kind of hard to He's saying, you have to be honest about your finances. That that's kind of hard, I mean telling people. I think he's doing a great job telling his wife and kids that. But yeah, yeah, because they probably want things that they see the other kids have and other families. But he's being honest. Also, Steve, former retired Miami Dolphins NFL player Channing Crowder, talked about the black tax phenomenon. This is the idea that black athletes are expected expected to financially take care of their family once they become successful. He talked about how after he was drafted, his family was like, we made it. We made it. Yeah. Yeah, And that's true, man, because black people two things about us. We are the only race of people for the actions of each other. We get blamed if if black people are the only race of people that's responsible for the actions of one another. When black people do something over here, all black people get blamed for it. All people, all black people don't get credit for it. But we share in the blame. So the racism towards the black races, it makes it very easy for people to apply to pressure all the way across the board. And when we become successful and signed contracts, we're responsible for our family members and friends. Ain't nobody else, says man, I remember Meyl Brooks told me one time. I mean, not Meyl Brooks, Meyl Gibson told me one time we were talking. He said, hey, man, I'm not responsible for anybody. I don't get that. I don't get responsible for anybody. I did this. And I'm saying a while, but black people off made to believe and held responsible for one another. That's a true statement. And it doesn't matter what field or industry, not just athletes or entertainers. Even if you're just successful in your family, that's the case. You know, all of us have felt that. Yeah, but but the attitude of the we made it, I mean, I know it takes you know, it takes a village, and it takes a team. It's teamwork. And you know you didn't get there by yourself, you know, and all of that. But still we made it. I'm on here doing this hard work every day, running these plays and all of that. You know, we can't tell our family no, no, you said, it's a responsibility. We oh man, it's kind of crazy too, man, it is, it really is. I got them. People helped you go to practice and all that. But you don't owe him nothing. You don't owe him for that. You drove me to practice. What did you practice? You put in the time right? Did you go to school? Did you run these routes?

You have eight seven twenty nine, Steve, where you can leave me in voicemail and talk to me. I want to share one with you, and here it is now. Hey, Steve, I love listening to you. My name is Roger Williams. Listen these white folks man, they still got us contained. The reason I said that is because I've been trying to buy a house. I do everything they tell me to do, and they always come back with some kind of bullcrap. It keeps me not for not buying a house. Were black folks. Yeah, we gotta stick together, we gotta stand it up. I am just so sick of this. If I could, I will move out to the United States. I'm tired of this. They treat you any kind of way. They tell you everything you do, but they tell you to do and they still come up with some bullcraft. Man, I'm just trying to buy how to put my wife and myself in it. They won't let me, Steve, they won't let me talk to you. Well, let me help you out with something stuff. I will be the first to admit I've had these exact same thoughts as you. As a matter of fact, I used to carry those thoughts around with me all the time. I got what you're saying. I'm in that age bracket where it almost fits. Look, man, I'm old enough where I grew up in a city Welch, West Virginia that had colored only water fountains, colored only restrooms, no blacks could eat at lunch counters. I grew up. I grew up in that. I was the sixties kid. I saw all of this. Let me help you understand something. So I'm admitting that I've had these same thoughts, brother, But what I got to help you out with is how I got rid of those thoughts. And this may help you. First of all, I understand systematically it's hard to succeed in this country on any level, but it's because of the game. The game is set up for no one to succeed. Now, because we are black, we have extra barriers. You know, we've been zonings. If once they see a certain zip code, they put you in a certain category, you get a different interest rate. I got all that they make it hard, man. If they do make it hard, the system, the systematic racism in this country is real. But what I had to learn was I quit calling it the white man's game, and I just started calling it the game because it's the game. And I just had to learn how to play the game. Now. I had to implement the fact that the extras that come with it cause I'm black, but I had to deal with it. But listen, man, a lot of what's happening to you is because you allowing it to come out of your mouth. You give too much power to them. Man, these white folks won't let us. Man, these white folks won't let Who are you talking? What white folks? See? Bro? I got what you saying technically, But you can't empower people like that. You can't give a person the power over you. You give too much power to them. You're verbalizing it and speaking a truth into your life. I'm just telling you what you're doing. Bro. If I were you, I would stop verbalizing and speaking this truth into my life. I would stop. I would stop saying stuff that you keep making fruition. You keep giving them the power. You keep saying the white man did this, The white man got power. They won't let me. No, man, what are you talking about? They won't let you. You know what I mean? Black people got houses? Stop? First of all, stop verbalizing. I gotta show full of people that got houses because they've made a commitment to get one. Secondly, you're talking about moving out the country. But if you move out the country where you're gonna live, you gotta have ticking money. You gotta go there and buy a house. I got what you said. Now, how about this right here, let me help you out with it. Quit going to the bank by yourself. I have no problem I ever had in my life, Nor do I have that I have that's bigger than my God. I don't have a problem that's bigger than my God. Quit going to the bank by yourself. Why don't you going, Why don't you take Why don't you take the lord in the bank with you? What they're gonna do? Now, see now, they ain't just turning you down. See that's why. That's why. Man. Look, man, whenever people come for me, I try to warm people. I try to warm them. I started to say, hey, man, listen to me. Don't don't come for me because I ain't over here by myself. Now, I happen to belong I'm a child of the Most High. I'm telling you right now, I belong to somebody. So careful when you come for me. I ain't over here by myself, Pardner, My heavenly father watches over me. So when you come for me, you know. And it's like when I was a little boy, sometimes I would tell kids on the street, I'm gonna tell my daddy that gave me power. I'm gonna tell my daddy come to My daddy was gonna do something. Well, I got a heavenly father too. Why don't you take him to the bank with you. Why don't you tell him to help you get a house and then watch you get a house? And because when God give it to you, ain't nothing nobody could do about it, you feel me, Let's try that, man, Just try that, bro. I just want to address that. Y'all. Have a great day. Man, see y'all, the mall can't speak hurt. For all Steve Harvey contests, no purchase necessary, void where prohibited.
