Motivational speaker Eric Thomas joins Jemele to discuss in detail his latest book, “You Owe You: Ignite Your Power, Your Purpose and Your Why.” Eric shares how his mother not disclosing the truth about his biological fatherhood led to him being homeless and estranged from his family. He also discusses how having children inspired him to reconnect with his father, explains the pitfalls of making yourself into a victim, and why his popularity as a motivational speaker hasn’t changed him. Also, Jemele shares her thoughts on Tyre Nichols.
