What are the benefits of staying hydrated while traveling?
All right, y'all, with spring coming up, a lot of us are starting to travel again, whether that's weekend trips, long flights, or just being outside more. And one thing that I've learned is staying hydrated makes a huge difference when you're on the go. And that's why I've been keeping that liquid IV with me. It's a hydration mode supplier that you mix with water and it helps you hydrate faster and more efficiently than water alone. Each stick has three times the electrolytes of leading sports drinks, plus vitamins like B3, B5, B6, B12, and vitamin C. And the best part, it's super easy. You just pour a stick into water, shake it up, and you're good to go. It's perfect for travel days, long flights, workouts, or just those days when you need a hydration boost.
So if you want to try it out, you can get 20% off when you go to liquidiv.com and use code GRITS at checkout. That's 20% off anything you order when you shop better hydration today using code GRITS at liquidiv.com. Yeah, yeah. Woke up in the morning and to God be the glory. Thankful for another day to tell my story. Put my opinions in the universe and let them orbit. I'm from the dirtiest soul with a dirty mouth, might need orbit. I feel very strongly about If you don't have anything new or fresh to offer the conversation, it's best to let the people who are already having the conversation have it. Just have it. Right? So, like, a lot of times people will say, they'll DM me or they'll comment, what do you think about this?
What do you think about that? And I'm like, man, bro, it's... It's out there.
How did Taliah Waajid start her journey in natural hair care?
It's 15 videos about it, bro. You know what I'm saying? If I felt like I had anything different to offer, I would. But obviously, at this point... I think they got it covered, you know what I'm saying? And a lot of times, it's a picking and choosing thing. I don't need to be a part of every conversation. Sometimes I may not have an opinion on something, especially if I don't know enough about it.
That's smart. I mean, if you don't know enough about it, it's like, what's the point of talking? You sound like everybody else.
I think that's most people issue on the internet. It's like, I'm going to tackle all the trending topics, whether I'm informed or not. And then you get people putting their foot in their mouth and then they try to walk it back. But like, once it's out there, there ain't no walking it back. So I just, you know, I pick my spots. That's really what it come down to. It's like.
So you do research and then find out, okay, well, I'm going to talk about this. Correct. This is what's moving me.
Yes, absolutely. And often, sometimes it may not even be something that's trending. A lot of things I talk about may not even be what's in the current news cycle.
What is the significance of the World Natural Hair Health and Beauty Show?
It may just be things I'm observing. We have like some... We have some very collective movements in our community, whether it be good behavior or bad. So if I see, like, that there's a collective conversation being had that's not necessarily a part attached to popular culture or attached to something that's going on politically and it's just something that I'm observing, like a behavior, I want to point that behavior out because I want to figure out where it come from. Mm-hmm. Like, why is it showing up in this time? And a lot of it can be, okay, like, I'm not sure what your religious beliefs are, right? But it seems like there was a period where we was embracing a lot more Afro, like, African spirituality.
Or at least... Redefining our belief system spiritually And the worse the world got The more we started seeing The uptick of Christian content Because From Just from my perspective Um It seemed like the worse the world gets, the more divine things feel for Christians because of revelation teachings. So they look at the world as like the world is beginning to burn. You understand what I'm saying? So now it's like, okay, Jesus is definitely coming back because look at the world. But it's also like it becomes inaction. Like, I'm going to just sit back and let it unfold.
