SPFPP 251: Just Set the Price and Live Your Life
Sean Carter in the song "Bam" said a quote that speaks to this podcast episode; "My advice is just don't be too nice to n(eighbors). Just set the price on n(eighbors) and live your life my n(eighbor)". These bars serve as a mantra for me as I navigate the tough transition of how I run SPFPP as a business with boundaries now.

I realize the disrespect I've enabled and I'm actively working to untangle the knots I created by taking my own advice and disengaging from all that is disrespectful. That said, my social media interactions are going to be leaning more toward responding to messages. I didn't realize how social media was impacting me until I went from seeing women talk down about men until a transition occurred on my feed due to the almighty algorithm that showed me women being supportive of men, and men as well in a way that resonated but I hadn't experienced. I liked the feeling in my body seeing/reading this positive messaging to and for men. With that new baseline, what I was experiencing was disrespect to a crucial part of my identity as a Man. If you remember the identity series, I was challenging my masculinity, Blackness, and straightness. This caused by my social media intake and since decreasing my intake, I've been able to connect with my own natural energy. I like how I feel when present in the world so I want more of that. I'm still here for ya'll but understand there's changes occurring within me that reflect in the SPFPP space as well. Thanks for understanding. I love ya'll.
