In this episode, we’re going to talk about protecting positive energy and peace in relationships. There was an article that said that energy is binding. It’s the idea that you can have your own positive energy but be in a toxic or negative environment. I want to explore with our guests on the show how we can break the chains of toxic relationships and how to identify we’re going down the wrong path. Sort of the red flags we should look for and maybe even a few yellow flags. I also want to talk about being a person’s peace. I’ve heard men say this often, “be my peace” or I want peace at home. I’m going to ask my guests what that means and whether another person is even capable of being someone’s “peace”.

Submission is defined as “the action or fact of accepting or yielding to a superior force or to the will or authority of another person”. We’re going to explore the idea of hierarchy in decision-making in partnerships or marriages as well as whether the black modern culture is moving towards or away from the idea of submission in relationships. On this show, we hear from Dr. Theresa, Ponds and Brother Charles.
In this episode of The Black Dot, Dr. Theresa talks with Shaquane, Ponds and Charles about the idea of gender roles in relationships. Are they necessary? What do men REALLY want in a mate? Are women hindered or helped by gender roles? Are the genders competing? We explore all this and more.
