Welcome to another heartfelt and hilarious episode of Thoughts in the Glass podcast! This is another long episode, but it's worth it. In this episode, LaToya and Kendra welcomes back friend and super fan Ruby for her one-year return as a guest. This week’s drink of the night is a sparkly Strawberry Lemon Drop 🍓🍋 — made with lemon drop rum (or vodka), fresh lemon juice, strawberry syrup, simple syrup, and topped with silver glitter for a little razzle dazzle.. In honor of Black History Month, Latoya highlights a fun fact: former President Barack Obama made history not only as the first African American president, but also as a two-time Grammy winner for Best Spoken Word Album and an Emmy winner for narration on a Netflix documentary. Black excellence? We love to see it. 👏🏾 As we settle into Season 3, Ruby reflects on how far the podcast has come — from humble beginnings to a polished, consistent setup — and we get into everything from Valentine’s weekend recaps to AI-generated books that just didn’t hit the mark. 🤖📚 We dive into: The growing use of AI in creative spaces — helpful tool or creative crutch? Are future generations losing rewriting and critical thinking skills? Ruby’s homeschool journey and why she left the traditional education system Launching Bloom Success Academy and trusting divine timing Social media comparison traps and redefining personal success The power of a “slow burn” versus overnight success On the entertainment side, we discuss: Bridgerton (first four episodes — let’s talk plot and drama 👀) Netflix’s My Way Home (time travel + family themes) Peacock’s Traitors — would we be Faithfuls or Traitors? Then we get into relationship talk — and baby, it gets real. We unpack standards vs. compromise, emotional labor, being “in love” vs. loving someone, community judgment, secrecy, integrity, and why Black women are often positioned as emotional support systems and “fixers.” Ruby shares why her standards are higher than ever and how one man respectfully ended things when he realized he wasn’t ready. We close out discussing going with the flow, success without rigid timelines, and releasing the pressure to have perfectly articulated 2026 goals.
