ACT NORMAL PODCAST | EPISODE 1 "When It All Falls Down"

I love that Dess is natural & wears her real hair 😍 she’s beautiful!

[@keylawalker9546]

The people who are saying this interview is boring is the emotionally immature people. The people who live to please others instead of God and themselves. This podcast is for the mature girls who are in their healing phase, growing with God and choosing peace over power. I'm looking forward to more conversations, mainly just y'all but I would love a guest here and there, lol. Patience is key, and like Jayda said, "new levels, new devils." I love this and God bless you both on your feature endeavors.

[@kimsstories9246]

most def is for the mature🥰❗️

[@Ketzianh]

Yes! I have a new found respect for Jayda🤍

[@janaedunston]

Yes, I just commented how this was so therapeutic for me. I didn’t know I needed this podcast❤️.

[@Jane-rs2si]

It was boring and so are you

[@DineroWay215]

You have a beautiful soul I appreciate that response from a man’s perspective that is very attractive for you to convey. I love a woman who are in depth with their self and not so attached to public opinion

sex is for relationships. dating is for getting to know each other.

[@TheKemaniC]

Correction. Sex is for marriage. But I’m not perfect. Just stating what’s actually right.

[@dariioneee]

@@TheKemaniC right!

[@AllHailQueenRell]

I hope these young ladies read & understand your comment. Jayda and Dess needs to read it also. These young ladies need guidance, no way they think humping is part of dating

[@jjolej2024]

that uncomfortable feeling was your transition! speaking on your year of spirituality- you mentioned you felt uncomfortable. my grandmother always told me that’s how you know you’re truly transforming and elevating into who you’re supposed to be. it’s not comfortable but when you come out on the other side, you really can breathe easier. i’m so happy for you, Dess!

[@jjolej2024]

also! i’d love to see what a day of you two hanging out looks like.

Also,Thank you Jayda for letting Dess know that she’s intentionally healing her mother❤That was big of you and very sweet! Dess needs to accept it,she didn’t say thank you at that moment but I understand she may not have accepted that message yet.

[@guccianna4877]

Yes I wanted to add this in my comment that when Jayda said that it was true it just goes back to what they was saying about time heals and her mama just need time but she is helping her get thru the dark time to get back to the light 😢

[@DYoung-pd6gj]

Dess’ maturity is beautiful! I appreciate her so much. I love this!

[@BeauteByMerc]

I watched this in bed rubbing my feet giggling lol this was too comforting to watch. I felt relaxed as though I was at a girls night/sleepover! I feel like I “know” Jayda more bc of snap (love you down girl) only bc she’s very active with us on there but it was so refreshing to see this vulnerable side of Dess she’s a sweetheart just like I thought she would be🥺Can’t wait for more please don’t slack on us yall❤🎉

Dess just has a soothing spirit. It’s something about her that I like. Hopefully she’ll open up more through out the episodes. 🫶🏾

[@BigNish_]

Being that the world and the minds of people are so stimulated by social media, this podcast is what we needed! Showing the gworls it’s okay to ACT NORMAL, be yourself, have originality, have feelings and actually expressing them, remind us that we’re human etc. I love y’all for this💗

[@brownbeautytv8430]

Dess being natural will never get old she’s literally so beautiful . Can we hear more on your perspective on Tv shows you’ve watched or books you’ve read. Hard truths , what has God convicted you of ,difficulty or dysfunctions in your family and how you manage , who do you look up to and why , what do yall think about Black Chyna’s transition . But other than that I love seeing you guys together . ❤

[@3keey]

I love how you both are opening up more. Vulnerability is everything.

[@Ardormilkens]

I just want to say I LOVEEE THE WALK WITH God!! Y’all don’t even know the impact that y’all will have if you guys fully give it over to God, times are crazy we all need a savior Jesus loves you all sooo much this was a breath of fresh air as we get older the habits of drinking smoking sleeping around and clubs that are constantly being thrown in our face will decrease it’s time to build a life with God and be peaceful when you have God you have it all you won’t lack for nothing!! Every influencer is a worker for the enemy promoting the most vulgar stuff it’s AMAZING TO SEE YALL COME FROM OUT THE WORLD AND INTO CHRIST

[@Lauralaurelle]

Dess is such a natural, she has a very soothing and emotive aura and can hold a good conversation. She carried the flow of things and balanced out the conversation very well and Jayda brought a lot of energy, charm and good vibes while Dess brought some insights, charisma and depth to the conversation. Y'all really shared some gems and brought a conversation of substance. My only critique if I had one just to be picky is that Jayda could slow down a bit while talking lol so keep going y'all both are already very charming, entertaining and interesting! Love y'all and this and can't wait for more. This is what the girls needed 🖤💗🥰 I laughed quite a bit and got tender when y'all got deep 😂 I'm already ready for episode 2

Now Jayda 😂 Dating is going out on dates to get to know each other. You can date several people at a time to see who is for you. Sex with no commitment and no plan to commit (vibing) is a situationship!

[@ashleyparker7553]

Dating is like what Dess was trying to say, getting to know someone to build a friendship to see if it can become a relationship. It’s not about being intimate.

[@ososaddity60]

I really enjoyed this podcast. Honestly i don’t watch podcasts, but i glad i watched this one . Yall bond and connection with each other is everything and i love it . I cant wait until the next one is dropped ❤

[@kaylajanae1552]

When dess said “yall can destroy what you have by trying to force it, your still yearning for things that I’ve already passed in my life” & that speaks cause, we tend to want the other person to fulfill something we never experienced, but they have so they’re not as interested in that same thing in the relationship!

having a best friend you can be vulnerable with is so therapeutic. so many people wish for this I know I do. can't wait for ep.2

[@queenjae863]

I felt it when Jayda said god gone keep giving you lesson on a person. Bc I was ignoring them signs until that person did something so bad it no coming back from that. So don’t ignore them red flag, leave when it necessary before it too late!

[@ElizabethDampier]

Y’all are such a vibe. So relaxing and relatable fr. Everything changed for me on my shroom trip too lol. You just stop caring about stupid stuff and focus on what matters. Can’t wait to see more from y’all ❤

[@chelseachazz3348]

I have a daily prayer, and i also talk to God in comfortability. Meaning I talk to him like i would talk to a close friend/family that I’m being vulnerable to. Instead of trying to pray like my mom or elder, I pray in my own way to where God and I have our own relationship and communication style.

[@thevibrantstorm]

i love the idea behind releasing your burdens with Jenga blocks. Its a cute yet therapeutic approach to healing
