Sam Sparks says his barber was the first person to tell him he could be somebody. Years later, a lesson from his Uncle Kevin stayed with him: “He never looked like what he went through.” Do you believe how you carry yourself can shape how you see yourself? #TheCarlosWatsonPodcast #SamSparks #SelfConfidence

Sam Sparks went from being homeless and living out of a van to becoming Steve Harvey’s stylist for 10 years. He says surrendering to God changed everything. Sometimes the lowest point becomes the beginning. #TheCarlosWatsonPodcast #SamSparks #SteveHarvey #Faith

At 12 years old, Sam Sparks found out the man he believed was his father… wasn’t. The man himself showed him the DNA papers. No mom. No one else around. Just him and the truth. What would that moment have done to you? #TheCarlosWatsonPodcast #SamSparks #Fatherhood #DNA #Family

Sam Sparks had dreamed for years about Steve Harvey fixing his suit. Then he randomly gets invited to the Steve Harvey show, ends up in the front row, and Steve calls him up. What happens next? Exactly what he had dreamed about. Coincidence or God’s timing? #FromBehindThisChair #SamSparks #SteveHarvey #Faith

AJ Johnson says she has a hard time finding one partner who shares all her interests. Her solution? “I have a tendency to kinda have multiple partners.” One partner for everything—or different partners for different parts of life? #TheCarlosWatsonPodcast #AJJohnson #CarlosWatson #Relationships #Dating

AJ Johnson explains how she came to embrace polyamory: “I just haven’t found someone that actually holds my attention like that.” Her philosophy? A partner doesn't have to share every interest—and shouldn't stop you from living your life. #TheCarlosWatsonPodcast #AJJohnson #CarlosWatson #Polyamory #Relationships
