Last year, Duke sent me this episode… and yes, some of the info is a little outdated because this man is now 30 😭💀 (we love growth, therapy, and new decades).

In this Episode, Duke opens up about starting therapy, navigating breakups, learning about boundaries, loyalty, reputation, and how stress shows up in the body when you don’t listen soon enough. He talks honestly about unlearning survival habits, people-pleasing, and the pressure to always be “the good guy.”

This episode is also a powerful reminder of how important it is to see Black men in therapy — choosing self-reflection, healing, and emotional accountability 🖤👏🏾

He also shares his thoughts on relationships, patience, dating in your 20s, and even references Season 2, Episode 6 with Nia & Saundra, reflecting on their conversation and how it landed for him — which makes this episode feel even more layered!

Make sure you’re following Duke and tapping into everything he’s building:
