#133| The Same Direction

May 13, 2015 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking together in the same direction.

~Antoine de Saint-Exupery

It’s hard for two or more people to accomplish a goal without reaching an agreement about the direction to move in and steps required for achieving the goal.

How much more important is it to share a sense of direction when successfully maintaining a personal or business relationship?

It’s not hard to agree on the end goal: success. Getting there is so much easier if we’re looking in the same direction.

Chatting With CHONILLA – Part 1

March 4, 2015 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

Whew . . . !

The upload of Podcast Episode 062 (and the next two upcoming podcast episodes) have been a long time in the making.

Y’all, I’m not even going to tell you when we recorded this podcast with the one, the only, Sherley and Clove aka CHO & NILLA of Montreal, Quebec.

Yep – CHONILLA.

CHONILLA!

Let me just say, Adrienne and I interviewed Shirley and Clove early in our podcast journey (we launched June 9, 2014).

We were such newbies, and thrilled to have these veteran interracial podcasters to come on our show.

Sherley and Clove have been blogging and podcasting from Canada for years, and we were thoroughly geeked out to have them on our show.

We wound up chatting for almost two hours, and it’s taken me with my anal self this long to get their show edited and up.

*Hangs head in shame*

I know they forgive me, though (thanks, Sherley and Clove!), and we’re happy to finally present our conversation with them.

Shucks, it’s almost time to have them back on!

*Grins*

They’re a riot! Woot! Woot!

#43| Simply Inspirational!

February 12, 2015 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

I want to pause today from featuring our Swirling Singles to give a birthday shout out to one of the most inspirational women I know:

Happy Birthday, Karla!

Have you ever met someone who, when you’re asked to give your thoughts concerning them, one of the most robust descriptions you can give of them is:

Simply Inspirational!

Karla is warm, witty, and funny, and one of the most brilliant you would ever have the pleasure of meeting. She speaks from a place that is rooted in experience, truth and love – and she gives it straight, no chaser.

Karla is fairly active on interracial dating and marriage blogs and the wisdom and down home common sense in her posts will have you nodding your head in assent.

She’s a retired Navy officer who served her country well, and served – and yet does – as a shining role model for other women to follow.

I can’t say enough about her, and I’m honored and proud to call her Friend.

Karla, Happy Birthday. Thank you for being you, and thank you for selflessly serving as a source of inspiration and encouragement to me and countless others.

Enjoy your special day!
