When connecting with out-of-town friends and fellow Fit Fathers I always suggest a fitness meetup as opposed to happy hour and drinks or a partying scenario. Each person holds the other accountable as well as provides more encouragement and oversight into healthy living and routines.

Mentoring young black men has been one of my life's most evolutionary fulfillments. Passing down the knowledge I inherited from educational heroes, my dad, influential gurus, and father figures strengthened our community while guiding these students toward positive pathways.

It was a humbling day in Comuna 13, the most dangerous neighborhood in Medellin, Colombia, just seven years ago. Initially controlled by guerrillas and then gangs, there was a point when 20, 30, to 40 people a day were killed in Comuna 13. Comparable to Brazil’s favelas, dwellings consist of shacks stacked upon each other on a mountainside as residents climb lengthy stairs (or the new escalator) to get in and out.

Two spirits from opposite ends of the world uniting not by chance, but through universal energy and synchronicity. A vegan food search in Fukuoka, Japan led us to “Will You Curry Me” where the owner and chef Masa greeted us with One Love after seeing my Bob Marley shirt. He enthusiastically stated that Jamaica is his favorite place in the world. There are no coincidences in life people, just intentional guidance leading to like minds and Nomadic Souls. So, continue to respect, embrace, and learn from our cultural differences where you will find more in common than not.

After exchanging ideologies with Ghanaian friends for years and listening to their stories of triumph, community, and inspirational arts through creative fashion and music, it was finally time for my father and me to pay homage to the first sub-Saharan country to attain independence from its European colonizer. Rightfully so, we researched our intended path to truth and knowledge and embarked on another Nomadic Journey seeking cultural sustenance in the vibrant and historical country of Ghana.

As always, vacations are to rest the mind, not the body. And actually, you have more time to exercise so there should be no excuses. Yes, even in Jamaica! So I headed out for an Inspiring 5-mile run from Riu Mobay to Hip Strip while exploring local life in Jamaica. A few things I experienced on my energizing run:

Don’t gain the world and lose your soul. Wisdom is better than Silver or Gold! Robert “Nesta” Marley

Positive energy only, no animal food required, mass consumerism voided, political influence null and void, and eating fresh ital vegetation grown from the land is the way of life in the Jamaican bush. Moreover, the livity inherited through new perspectives and the exchange of naturalistic ideologies with Rastafarians will keep Mother Earth breathing consciously while sustainably maintaining Her resources without the greed and hate that comes with man’s lust for money and possessions. Soon come, this will definitely be my second act in life. One Love!

There’s an enlightening culinary experience in the hills of Free Hill, St. Ann, dubbed Stush in the Bush. Curated by Lisa and Chris Binns, guests are blessed with plant-based ital meals prepared from organic veggies and fruits grown on the couple’s ZionItes Farm. And though we were in the Bush, the Stush analogy pays homage to a dapper dress presentation as you are treated like royalty by the creative and health-conscious pair.

It’s always a blessing engaging with inspirational minds and creative souls such as the consummate John Salley, who continues to disrupt typical narratives with artistic ideologies. Winning championships with three different NBA squads (the first player to do so) gave John the fortitude and blueprint required for lasting success
