    Episode 110: “The Sabbath in You” — Roots & Rituals Series Finale
    2025/07/13
    In this final episode of the Roots & Rituals series, we return to something ancient, sacred, and often forgotten—rest. Not just physical rest, but soul-level surrender. The kind of rest that invites you back to yourself, where nothing needs to be earned, proven, or performed.This episode is a love letter to slowing down, honoring the Sabbath within you, and remembering that sacredness doesn’t have to be loud or elaborate. Sometimes, it’s a soft breath, a quiet prayer, a warm bath, or the courage to stop. We talk about oils, sacred smoke, music, stillness—and the difference between ritual as a performance vs. ritual as a return.If you’ve ever felt guilty for resting… this one is for you.If your nervous system has forgotten what safe feels like… this one is for you.If you’re ready to reconnect with the Divine without leaving your body behind… this one is for you.Thank you for walking through this series with me.

    In this episode of Make Love To You, we return to the most ancient and accessible ritual of all: the breath.You don’t need an altar. You don’t need a playlist.

Whether you’re caught in overthinking, anxiety, numbness, or grief, your breath is the gentle invitation home.We talk about the power of conscious breathing, the emotional layers it can unlock, and why embodiment starts with the inhale. Darnell shares personal reflections, spiritual insight, and practical encouragement for listeners ready to reconnect with their bodies—not as a task, but as a return.If you’ve ever felt like you don’t know where to begin, this episode will remind you:Begin right here.Right now.With breath.

    What if your most sacred ritual isn’t something you do, but something you are?In this episode of Make Love To You, Darnell Davis invites us to stop searching for the perfect routine and start remembering the truth: your body is an altar.

No incense, playlist, or morning journal required.We explore:
    • Why ritual begins with presence, not performance
    • How your body functions as a spiritual map
    • A simple, heartfelt breakdown of the seven chakras
    • And a soul food practice to reconnect with one part of yourself this week

    This isn’t about becoming more spiritual.It’s about realizing you already are.Listen now and come back home to the altar within.

    2025/07/10
    Some rituals were chosen.Others… were absorbed.This episode explores the invisible inheritance we carry—the habits, beliefs, and traditions passed down through generations, often without question. The things we do without knowing why. The words, rhythms, and roles we stepped into before we had the language to name them.But what happens when those rituals no longer fit?When a practice that once felt sacred starts to feel like a performance?When a tradition wrapped in love also carries the weight of silence, shame, or survival?In this deeply reflective chapter of the Roots & Rituals series, we’re untangling what’s ours to keep, what’s ready to be released, and how to make space for rituals rooted not in repetition—but in truth.This episode is a gentle call to inventory the emotional and spiritual routines we inherited…and the beginning of choosing again.

    EPISODE 106 — “Rituals That Don’t Stick” - Roots and Rituals Series Part Three
    2025/07/09
    Welcome to Part Three of the Roots & Rituals series, where we get honest about the practices that were supposed to ground us—but didn’t quite make it past week one.This episode is a love letter to the rituals that never stuck. The ones we were so sure would change our lives. The routines we downloaded, bookmarked, scheduled… and then silently ghosted.Because sometimes, the pressure to “stay consistent” becomes louder than the ritual itself. And when that happens, what once felt sacred can start to feel like shame.In this episode, Darnell explores the heartbreak and humor of trying to build consistency in a world that often demands perfection—but rarely makes space for real, messy, human practice.If you’ve ever started something with the best of intentions… and quietly never mentioned it again, this one’s for you.We’re not here to judge your half-finished journals or your one-day meditations.We’re here to release the guilt, laugh a little, and remember:Falling off doesn’t mean you failed.It just means you’re human.And that’s sacred too.

    What if the habits that shape your life aren’t the ones you planned — but the ones you’ve been practicing unconsciously?In this second episode of Roots & Rituals, we’re taking a closer look at the invisible rituals — the ones you didn’t choose but somehow still repeat. Dodging compliments. Rushing through joy. Apologizing for being seen. These aren’t just quirks — they’re rehearsals for how we believe we’re allowed to exist.I’m sharing a few of mine — and the moment I realized I was practicing self-abandonment like a full-time job. But the truth is: once you see it, you can shift it. You can choose new rhythms. You can create rituals that honor you.Whether it’s brushing your teeth with presence, praying over ocean waves, or simply letting yourself be loved — you are always practicing something. The question is: is it what you really want to master?This is your invitation to slow down and take inventory. To ask: what rituals am I unknowingly loyal to? And what might happen if I began again — on purpose?Tap in!

    2025/07/07
    Everything you do is a form of rehearsal.The question is: what are you rehearsing?In Part Two of the Roots & Rituals series, Darnell moves beyond curated routines and into the quiet, unconscious patterns that shape who we become. With honest storytelling and soul-deep reflection, he revisits a long-held ritual of deflecting compliments—and how a simple habit of “I got it on sale” became a daily practice of rejecting acknowledgment, shrinking from praise, and rehearsing unworthiness.But this isn’t just his story—it’s a mirror.Because whether you realize it or not, you’re always practicing something.Avoidance is a ritual.Overthinking is a ritual.Even scrolling before you breathe in the morning is a ritual.This episode invites you to pause and reflect:Are your rituals aligned with the life you say you want?Do they reflect the version of you you’re becoming?Or are they keeping you small?This is an invitation to stop sleepwalking through your days—and start practicing something more sacred: presence, enoughness, and becoming.One ritual at a time.

    There’s a moment after the storm—when the door closes, the silence sets in, and you realize… you’re alone. Again.In this final episode of the Home Within series, Darnell tells the raw, emotional story of coming home to an empty apartment after a toxic relationship ended. A relationship that once looked like luxury and compatibility—matching fits, Faena beach days, and curated aesthetics—but was really chaos in disguise.Through vivid storytelling, reflection, and humor, Darnell unpacks the deeper truth behind our attraction to emotionally unavailable people—and the fear that waits for us in solitude. What do you do when love ends, the high wears off, and you’re left with just… you?This episode is about the heartbreak after the heartbreak. The healing that only happens when there’s no one else to distract you. And the slow, sacred process of becoming your own home.
