Dee, Let Me Clear My Throat

I’ve created this site to touch base on things that others may feel, say, or wish were said more often. I’m passionate about pretty much, you, me, our Nation, GOD and everything in between. It’s not intended to patronize anybody, nor is it to state that I’m an opinionated person that isn’t willing to listen or try to understand others.

Here is a song I wrote to my daughter. Different Point of View. I am including the lyrics below. I hope you enjoy.
It’s those moments that you can’t see
Memories of yesterday, where I can’t be
The world keeps on spinning while I’m standing still
They say it will get easier, but I don’t think it will
 
Holding you back is what I did
With mixed emotion of trauma growing up as a kid
Left to follow you when it wasn’t right
Seemed to be the only version of tears you felt at night
 
Your eyes became curtains of things you feel
Covered in a heartache that severs you still
How do I get back what we’ve both lost
When you’re always the one that’s seems to keep paying the cost 
 
If you could see me now, what would you see
Would it be a reflection of who you really need
Would I make you proud, like I used to do
Would you look at me now with a different point of view
 
I’ve picked myself up and I get stronger everyday
But that’s not the version of me you saw yesterday
Now I’m standing tall and looking ahead
Wishing I could change all the memories you’ve ever shed
 
Time was against all the pain I couldn’t heal
Ticking through the moment now space to find and steal
Pushing through the darkness trying to light my way
Leaving you behind in a world that you have today
 
How do you look in a reflection that hurts you so
Too many emotions, like age they grow
I can’t give you now, what is lost
I can only pray your vision of me it won’t cost
 
If you could see me now, what would you see
Would it be a reflection of who you really need
Would I make you proud like I used to do
Would you look at me now with a different point of view
 
I’ve made my mistakes, and I almost died
I’m sorry for all the emptiness that you’ve ever felt inside
Finding myself in a world I now want to stay
From the different me you remember from yesterday
Healing from a life you used to see
Is my bridge of hope leading you back to me
Now in front of you here I stand
With nothing to offer but my hand
If only step by step and breath by breath is what we do
Maybe then you’ll get the chance to see a different point of view
 
If you could see me now, what would you see
Would it be a reflection, of who you really need
Would I make you proud like I used to do
Would you look at me now, with a different point of view
 
If you could see me now, what would you see
Would it be a reflection, of who you really need
Would I make you proud like I used to do
Would you look at me now, with a different point of view
 
If you could see me now, what would you see
Would it be a reflection, of who you really need
Would I make you proud like I used to do
Would you look at me now
 
Would you look at me now
Please look at me now 
Will you look at me now 
With a different point of view
 
 
 
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             
 

Never Use Alone

Monday Nov 03, 2025

Monday Nov 03, 2025

There are designated drivers that dedicate themselves to ensure that someone makes it home safely after a time of drinking. Someone to ensure that they are safe and they don't judge and belittle them. Someone that ensures that they get medical intervention in the possibility of alcohol poisoning or alcohol overdose. So, what happens in the same scenarios but instead of the choice of substance is not alcohol, but instead drugs? Not just "street drugs", but any and all drugs. Even from your local gas station, synthetic? In this episode, I talk about an organization that I came across that offers this type of lifesaving intervention for those that use drugs, regardless of kind. No, judgement, no legal reprimanding, just someone on the other end of a phone line ready to call 911 while you "use". The service isn't about enabling; it's about being the "designated driver". So, please join me in this Podcast as well as my others either on my Podbean or YouTube Channel @ dee let me clear my throat. Time is the one thing in life you can't get back, knowing there is someone dedicating theirs to help you, can be lifesaving. I'm not promoting drug or alcohol use, but if you do, Contact: NEVER USE ALONE. 800.484.3731 or 877.696.1996.

In this episode, I go over the devastation and importance of domestic violence and suicide. I talk about some of my own personal experiences, as well as some resources, not only for the victim but for the abuser as well. Help is available and is possible. It does not just affect the victim and the abuser, but a whole family. If healing and intervention is not implicated, then the cycle continues on and on to future generations. I feel that this needs to be addressed in a greater importance than just throwing someone in jail or sending them to a couple of classes, especially when a victim feels that the only alternative is suicide, or an abuser decided to take both lives into their own hands with a murder/suicide. Giving them the power and control for eternity. 

Domestically UnAlived

Sunday Aug 17, 2025

This episode is a HUGE trigger for me. I talk about not only my own experiences but also the importance of domestic abuse and suicide. Abuse is NO joke! Suicide is NO joke! When you put the two together the result is beyond heartbreaking. The statistics of even one is too many. Please join me in this episode, as well as my others, either on my Podbean or YouTube Channel @ Dee Let Me Clear My Throat.  I have also started a TikTok. It is still fairly new, but I am excited to see what its future will hold.

My Feelings

Happy 2-year Podcast Anniversary to us! In tonight's episode, I expressed my excitement in celebrating 2 years of doing my Podcast.  I also got into my emotions and feelings. Talking about things in my life and where I am at today with myself. I started doing my Podcast to not only help myself in a form of self-healing, but to also share my life, stories, and resources to others in order to help provide them a positive moment of hope, courage, dignity, understanding, reflection, reassurance of someone relating to what they don't say, and an opportunity to want to take your next breath without it suffocating you. As I always say, the one thing in life that you can't get back, that is priceless, is your time. If you dedicate it by sharing it with me, then I know that you have taken your priceless time and shared it with me, and for that, I am honored. Thank you for being a part of this journey and I look forward to many more priceless moments and sharing them with you.
Please join me in this Podcasts as well as my others either on my Podbean or YouTube Channel @ Dee Let Me Clear My Throat. Although, still new, I just recently started a TikTok Channel @ Dee Let Me Clear My Throat. 

Judge Mental Life

Tuesday Jun 03, 2025

Tuesday Jun 03, 2025

Unlike the pictures in an activity book on how many different things you can pick out or notice, life is anything but an activity book. Instead, it seems that society seems to find ways to pick out and determine what is deemed to be an acceptable kind of different and a judgmental version based off of opinion, the latest trend, money, and so on. We are brought up from birth to not only be conditioned by this, but we unknowingly pass the same form from generation to generation. Please join me in this podcast as we touch base on some scenarios that have crossed my mind. You can also find this and my other podcasts on my Podbean Channel and/or my YouTube Channel @ dee let me clear my throat.

In this Podcast, I am going to touch base on a very important topic. I will warn now that this may be a HUGE TRIGGER for some.

The Invisible Self-Harmer

Tuesday Mar 11, 2025

Tuesday Mar 11, 2025

When asked what your definition of a self-harmer is, what would be the first thing that comes to your mind? Would you think that they were someone that either cut, burnt, picked or would physically harm themselves? In this episode, we go over different thoughts and views of this subject. You might just find yourself a victim as an invisible self-harmer. Please join me in this Podcasts, as well as my others, either on my Pobean Channel or my YouTube Channel @ dee let me clear my throat.

There are many levels of emotions. However, the level of pain that engulfs a person can be deadly. In this episode, I go over my own personal experiences and triggers regarding my journey as a suicidal and self-harm victim survivor.  I also touch on some coping skills that have worked for me. Statistics are not accurate in my opinion regarding suicide, because one is too many!
988 is the suicide prevention helpline (in the United States, check your area resource if out of the US). They have skilled and non-judgmental professionals that can help you. Feel free to also join me in my other episodes on my Podbean channel as well as my YouTube channel @ Dee Let Me Clear My Throat

Let Me Clear My Throat

Let's touch base on things that matter; you, me, our Nation, GOD and everything in between.

We don't need to patronize anybody to be real. Our thoughts, words, ethics and well-being matter and make us who we are in the world...even if it is "our own little world" at times.

We don't need to be opinionated to listen to each other. We all have experiences, opinions, feelings, and amendment rights. However, we can't scream we are a One Nation Under GOD if we continue to take GOD out of our Nation. This only leaves us fighting against odds that are not always in our well-being or favor.

We need to learn to step over our own shadows, take a leap of faith and build our wings on the way down. Learning to flap one wing at a time. Even if it is a little broken, doesn't mean you can't go at your own pace, heal and soar. 

We can't get to tomorrow spending today, tripping over yesterday.

Remembering that even though darkness can make a shadow, it is what shines above us that makes the light. Just because something isn't real to another doesn't make it any less real to you.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so don't forget to look at yourself first. We are all a beautiful masterpiece in this blessing box of life.
