In this episode of The Hood Debutante, I dive into one of the most important frameworks for understanding the people who move through your life: Reason, Seasons & Lifetimes.

We’ve all had relationships that changed us, challenged us, carried us, or quietly drifted away. And yet, we rarely stop to ask why they entered our lives in the first place — or what their true purpose was.

In this two-hour deep dive, I break down the three types of connections every human experiences, how to identify each one, and how to navigate the emotional terrain of beginnings, transitions, and endings. No personal stories — just universal truth, clarity, and the kind of grown conversation that helps you see your relationships with brand-new eyes.

We’ll explore:

✨ Reason People: Those who show up as lessons, mirrors, catalysts, and wake up calls

✨ Season People: The chapter shapers who align deeply but not permanently

✨ Lifetime People: The rare souls who evolve with you, expand with you, and grow beside you

✨ The shadow side of connection why some people can’t grow with you

✨ How to let go without losing yourself

✨ How to choose relationships that match the person you’re becoming

At its core, this episode is a reminder that every connection has a purpose, and peace comes from releasing people from roles they were never meant to play.

Some people are chapters. Some are footnotes. A blessed few are the book.

Press play and let’s talk about it.
