Cats & Puppies Now Available in Audio

I’m not gonna lie… I’m BEYOND geeked right now.

“Cats & Puppies” isn’t just a book—it’s my love story to my mother.

She had me at sixteen. She was still growing up while raising me… and I got a front-row seat to all of it. The struggles. The mistakes. The strength. The faith.

There’s no guidebook for women raising boys the way it actually happens. Nobody talks about it like this. So I did.

If you’re a mother raising a son… or a son trying to understand the woman who raised him…

This is for you.

Happy 10 Year Anniversary to Get Up Mornings

How Sweet The Sound was Incredible!

"GRIFF" was Keynote at Gentle Level Academy's Next Step Ceremony Hosted by Fathers Incorporated

"GRIFF" is inducted into Big Brothers Big Sisters of America Hall of Fame

Long before he was making rooms full of strangers feel like family, “GRIFF” was the kid who needed one. That’s part of why his newest honor means so much: Big Brothers Big Sisters of America has inducted “GRIFF” into its 2026 Alumni Hall of Fame, recognizing him as one of the organization’s own — an alumni “Little” whose life was shaped by mentorship long before the comedy clubs and radio mic.

“GRIFF” joined a class of honorees from sports, media, entertainment, and business, all recognized for the same reason: mentorship changes the trajectory of a life. BBBSA President and CEO Artis Stevens said Hall of Fame members “became leaders, changemakers and advocates” because of the relationships that shaped them early on. “GRIFF” was honored June 17 during BBBSA’s National Conference in Atlanta.

For “GRIFF”, it’s a full-circle moment, a reminder that someone showing up for a kid can echo for a lifetime.
