In this episode, we're discussing GENEROSITY, COMMUNITY, FAITH, and how KINDNESS moves mountains.

If you haven't seen his work yet, head to Instagram and follow @romeobartleyjr. His vision will inspire you to DO something.

In this episode, we're diving deep into what truly matters—showing up for each other in the fight against cancer. This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I'm bringing you real conversations about resilience, support, and why health screening isn't optional. I'm sharing personal stories about losing family members to cancer, celebrating the incredible strength of survivors, and breaking down why ...
In this episode, I'm breaking down why the people who are "different"—the ones who march to their own beat—are the ones I truly admire. Using a powerful parable about two dogs watching a bird fly solo in the sky (one sees freedom, one sees loneliness), we're exploring how perspective changes EVERYTHING.
Here's the truth: Society teaches us to fit in f...
In Today's Episode, I'm diving deep into the power of divine intuition and what it means to listen when God nudges you to act. I'm sharing my incredible encounter with a woman I met in a parking lot who was living in her car. And let me tell you—this wasn't just about helping a stranger. This was about recognizing that God speaks to us through that still, small voice inside, and when we ans...
In this episode, we're diving deep into that pressure we all feel to constantly produce, constantly show up, constantly deliver. Whether it's your 9-to-5, your passion project, your side hustle, or your family—there's this voice saying you can NEVER slow down. Over the past few weeks, I stepped away to handle what mattered most—my family, my health, my sanity. And while I was out, I learned ...
In today's Motivational Monday episode, we're back and this one is POWERFUL. I'm opening with something that moved my entire soul—a sermon from Rev. Aisha Taylor-Issah on "The Other Side of Through" that will transform how you see your STRUGGLES, your SURVIVAL, and your FAITH.
Aisha breaks down Psalm 23 like you've never heard it before, unpacking wh...
In this episode, we're exploring the raw power of resilience and what it truly means to fight for yourself. Today, I'm sharing how my 78-year-old father is still teaching me life lessons from his hospital bed during two major surgeries. This isn't just about recovery - it's about our inner strength, and how the people we love can teach us lessons we never saw coming.
On this episode, Dr. Athea Vanzant (aka "Essence of Poetry") took over Cousin Ed's Corner during Suicide Prevention Awareness Month with some real talk that hits different - sharing how every suicide affects at least 135 people and why that should transform how we show up for each other. This Thank God For Everything (TGIF) edition is going to move your spirit in ways you didn't expect!
In this episode, we're diving deep into the beautiful evolution of father-son relationships and the divine power of checking on somebody. Today, I'm sharing the story of how my 22-year-old son EJ completely flipped our parent-child dynamic when he became the worried one after not hearing from me during a busy work day. This isn't just about family dynamics - it's about US, our mortality, and...
In this episode, we're diving deep into the power of seasonal wisdom and faith-driven transitions. Today, we're sharing an unexpected encounter with a farming family that transformed a simple boiled peanut run into a profound lesson about knowing when to let go and when to plant new seeds.
This isn't just about agriculture - it's about US, our growth,...
In today's episode, I'm sharing how a simple post of two of my former players reunited on the same college football team gave me exactly the peace and joy my heart needed during some heavy times.
This isn't just about sports or coaching - this is about divine orchestration, parental love, and how our Heavenly Father provides comfort right when we need...
In this deeply personal episode, we're honoring the memory of 9/11 through the lens of family storytelling and divine protection. Today, I'm sharing my mother's incredible story – she was literally on her way to the World Trade Center that morning, the same building where she used to work on the 33rd floor.
This isn't just about one family's experienc...
This Corner Connection is hitting different, y'all! I'm taking you behind the scenes and sharing the REAL origin story of how Cousin Ed's Corner came to be - and it's been 15+ years in the making! From my early days as part of the "50/50 Brothers" with my mentor Mr. Moody in "Mr. Moody's Neighborhood" to that life-changing moment when Turtle Michelle from my vegan group told me "you need to ...
In today's episode, we're diving deep into the sacred bonds of fatherhood and how they mirror God's unconditional love for each of us. I'm sharing my heart in a birthday tribute to my firstborn EJ that became so much more - it's about identity transformation, divine protection, and the DNA connections that can never be broken.
This isn't just about pa...
In this episode, we're getting real about where we are versus where we thought we'd be with less than 30 days left in Q3 2025! Today, I'm sharing my honest thoughts about the importance of preparation over just "showing up" to life, and why that 5 AM Warrior mentality can transform your final four months of the year.
